    Is my clutch dying?

    Before I take the plunge and buy a new clutch, could I get a couple more opinions that it definitely sounds like a new clutch is needed? Or could there be anything else causing it?

    Is my clutch dying?

    It does it in all gears if I floor it, obviously the higher you go up a gear and the lower the revs at the point I put my foot down, the longer the delay lasts. Can clutches be repaired or am I looking at a new whole clutch?

    Is my clutch dying?

    Badically in the past couple of days I have had something occur consistently which may have something to do with the clutch. If I put my foot down in anyway, the revs rise up to 4k - 4.5k revs, without actually getting anywhere. Almost as if I'm sitting on the clutch? I believe I know why it...

    Eibach sportlines 182

    Who's running eibach sportlines in their 182? Are they supposed to make your wheels rub in the arches? I've had mine on for 70 miles, and any turn greater than 45 degrees causes a rubbing sound? Anyone experienced this? Anyone have any solutions for this? Cheers

    which rear shocks do I need?

    Right I apologise for dragging this up again, but I can't make heads or tails of the last post. I have a 182 non cup (silver wheels, std spoiler, no splitter) and I have just had two 182 cup shocks (8200681109) delivered even though I asked for 172 cup shocks. Will these fit?

    which rear shocks?

    I know this has been covered on numerous occasions, and I have searched the forum already, I'm just looking for a definitive answer. I have a standard non cup 182. Am I right in thinking that 172 cup shocks will fit the front? Will 182 cup shocks fit the rear or am I better off buying 172 cup...

    Humming from rear right hand side of car

    Humming from rear right hand side of car

    Just wondering if anyone has experienced this before? Anyone know what it could be? I've had it looked at thinking it may be the wheel bearing but the last mechanic said there was no problem with it. He reckoned it may be down to the fact the rear right tyre is budget. Anyone have any ideas? Cheers
