Yes the front suspension strut. That chart is not correct for the 1.4 8valve.

cant edit the thread.. 1.4 engine. 8 Valve

Hey guys. Does anyone know the bolt spacing on a 1.14 8 valve. Ive heard its 52mm 56mm 58mm :unsure: Anyone actually know? Thank you ❤️

No it does not have air con, but ive heard they also still have them even without aircon and also if it has air re-circulation they have them. My heater has recently started to not blow much air so i'm assuming its getting quite blocked.

Okay so i think ive found it under the passenger footwell. It seems someone in the past has played around with it at some point as the screws are missing. Ive undone the clips but it wont remove is as it seems the 2 pipes are connected somewhere, which i assume are these udner the bonnet? Any ideas.

Ive looked under the scuttle panel but its just a big empty space, Ive looked under the glove box but still cant see nothing. Anyone know? Thanks

Well the engine seems to run noisier with more tappets. Just wondering if the GTX would be better for it or if there's any other oils people could suggest to use. I want the car to last! lol. :smiley:

Hi all. what engine oil would you suggest to be used on a daily 1.4 8 valve? Car is on about 97k. I used to use Castrol GTX 10W-40 Part, Ive recently done an oil change about couple weeks ago and decided to try Castrol magnatec 10W-40 Part which i noticed is A LOT thinner!. I'm Not 100%, but i'm...

Cheers Fairm, much appreciated!! :smiley:

Just waiting to see what amp the fuse is., Thanks :smiley:

Haha! oh dear :smile:

Helping a friend out with a few issues with his car, And also noticed the rear fog light not working. Looked at the fuse box and noticed there is no fuse for the fog light, could someone let me know what fuse is needed, 5,10,15 amp etc. Its a 1.4 s 2000. Thanks :grimacing:

Fit me a set of KW Coilovers to a 1.4 sport? And how much? (Worksop area as well actually) Pm me if you prefer Regards Tom

I cant really tell tbh, there is thread there, but it may have worn down just enough to not get a grip. I don't know.

So have come to notice that One of my wheel bolts does not tighten up, The other 3 on the wheel are fine. Ive tried a couple different bolts in the same hole but still nothing. Should i just buy a new rear hub from eurocarparts or something? HELP :neutral:
