Hello all, After the harsh winter some members me included are getting plenty of new engine rattles, now that we can finally drive with the windows open and hear them! Mine sounds a bit like diesel when pulling off in 1st or if I blip the throttle in neutral any ideas?. Was...

Thanks for your replys, I think I will give the 5w-40 a go, Comming upto the 100,000 mile mark now and if like tuffy says it being slightly thicker suits higher mileage cars then it can maybe only be good thing for engine wear. Only when I phoned around people were recomending 5w-30, It seems...

Car due for a service soon, have has been filling her 5w-30 on long lifes. I have reading that some on her have been using 5w-40. Whats the advantage of using the 5w-40?. Comming off the longlife after reading the horror stories about burnt oil, blocked pick up pipes etc. Any comments...

Thanks for your replys. The wishbone are only a couple of weeks old and are of a decent make (leformer) I'm sure it cannot be this otherwise every audi with oem bushes would definitely do this especially with worn ones as it is very noticeable even through...

Hello all, When coming to a firm stop it has been witnessed by many others and myself that my front wheels seem to jump forward quite alot within the wheel arches. It looks quite frightening to watch and everyone is sure it is not ment to do this!. The car is lowered and has had new shocks...

Okay thanks mate, I think I am gunner remove the links first have a trial run and make sure that this is the only knocking I am getting, and go from there. Cheers

What drop links are you using with the whiteline bar?. The standard links or aftermarket. Also what setup did you go for. The ajustable or non ajustable? Damian says you can have a softer or harder ride with the ajustable one. Thanks

Okay anyone using this type of ARB bar out there?.

Okay I had a look at the ajustable ones from the link, how do you know when you have achieved the correct height? Is it a case of a few extra turns more than the standard ones!. Would the longer links not be putting more strain on the arb because you are adding extra force to push it away. The...

I too have this problem with the ARB rubbing on the drivers side driveshaft. Will shorter links solve this problem or will the whole ARB bar need upgrading to a aftermarket one like KW? Mine currently loops over the driveshaft.

Mate I have a symptoms like this I cannot pin point it fully at the moment. mine sounds a bit like a wheel bearing starting to go. When I reverse sometimes in a straight line or turning it sounds like the brake has not released and it makes this a awful droning noise going forward is not so bad...
