down to size i actually think i'd be bungle i vote husky as zippee just cos he doesn't shut up, but sadly that means geraghty is george sorry i'm sorry i can't control my wife, she is a force unto her self

first case i've heard of them failing. might go the sports cat route at some point. just don't want any raspy-ness.

i don't follow celebrity gossip, couldn't give a monkey's all these celebrities who are famous for being famous should be loaded on a bus and pushed off a cliff. they're a waste of space. what ever happened to proper news they set a bad image and are poor role models for a gullable population and the younger generation.

i by low mileage for the resale, makes it easier to shift when i sell up. only my first car had over 100k when i bought it, and my second had 60k when i got it and sold it at 84k, my last 3 cars have all had less than 15k on the clock, and i would usually sell a car at around 40k milage wise now, not on age of ownership.

i wouldn't worry i learnt a long time ago that brummies are wierdos i lived with one for 2 years. she once got into a car with a strnager after a night out, we asked what she was doing and it not being a bright idea; and her responce in a thick black country accent " is alright, he's got pizza" i mean wtf

i guess if he'd turned up at 11.30 instead of 3.30 like he was suposed to he wouldn't have had these problems

was going to do the same at the meet, but didn't think there was enough space, so i'll do mine another time

oh no, i just got my life back after the last one finished. here we go again

he go there so late i'm wondering if CS's mechanic is still working on his car

definitley shires, his was the dirty one.

Confirmed

yeah it was me that said that, i've never done it but i remember years ago someone saying you could reduce the damper strength but you could never add it back in again. but i don't know how you go about letting some of the gas out? its got to get in there some how i suppose.

Bp Ultimate is good, although a lower ron.

thanks guys, will post up pictures in a bit, just got up and i feel like crap, need to go shopping then i'll post up.

Think thats an each price mate. The clicking rear axle sounds like you're driving over broken glass or gravel when driving at very low speed... this problem is mostly when reversing at low speed, often going up a slight hill or down (i.e. not flat), and while it does click, its a lot more of a creaking sound this. i don't have any of that, mine is a very distinctive Click Click as i drive off, and also change gear, and its inline with the movment of the car as the weight shifts from front to back on power transfer during gear change. and normally only 2 clicks as the car rocks forward and then back during gear change.

mines only 23,000 on the clock, and no suspension mods, are the originals really that crap that they'd wear out by that mileage?

welcome to the club, i don't think your the first fiat coupe convert, i remember there was one other on here, but can't remeber who, they may be able to help with comparisons between the 2.

i keep putting it off, does it sound like a likely cause of the problem? any tests i can do to check? i may just get the standard nissan ones for £27 a pair and test, not an expensive out lay if wrong i suppose.

Swine Flu of Manflu? i don't know, but i have a sore throat developing, and apparently so does husky, i did tell him not to use tongues, but hey, you know what dogs are like (only joking, there was no dodgy man love going on at casa del huskey )

don't worry, i'm tired, bored and broke too.

did these get rid of your click? i have a click on moving away and originally thought it was the clicking axle problem, but on discussion with people at the CS meet the noise happens on weight transfer from front to rear so i'm wondering if it might be the drop links. whats the best way of testing this when you have the car up on a ramp?

Thanks to Cs for arganising this, had a great day, and it was fantastic meeting everyone, was nice to put faces to names, and some cracking looking Zeds. sorry if i didn't get to speak to every one, and sorry for shooting off a little early in the end and missing the meal, but i was starting to lag, and had 3 hours of driving, and needed to get back to my sick wife. thanks again

kids will whack one out to anything these days, they are a bunch of randy feckers. (i'd take it as a compliment) as for outdoors = offlicence never heard of it either and i've lived in the midlands, essex, sussex, and west country, and spent time in manchester, yorkshire and wales and i've never heard anyone use that term.

Dibs if the other person doesn't take them.

Just filled up on pizza now working our way through random spirits. I think he's trying to get me drunk. Lol
