    Noisy PAS Pulley

    Hi guys. Got a squeaking noise coming from the aux belt area. Seems to be the PAS pulley (spray on wd and it goes quiet for a while). Are the pulleys available separately or do I have to replace the pump?! Can anyone recommend where to get one?! Cheers Ben

    I've been chasing a high cold idle since I've owned the car and still haven't managed to find it. You start the car cold and it sits around 2.2k rpm but then climbs to 2.5k. When you start driving and put the clutch back in it will shoot up to 3k rpm and get stuck there until the car has...

    Hi guys. Want to change the coolant in my DC5. Is there a drain plug or is it a case of just disconnect the lower rad hose? Presume there is a drain on the block somewhere? Will 5 litres of type 2 be enough?

    What rear brace is this?

    Found a non standard rear brace in the back of my car, explains why I had a "spare" standard one. Anyone know what one it is? Can't see any markings. Is it worth anything as I will be putting the standard one in. Cheers Ben

    Decent Ride?

    Hi Guys. I'm back in my 3rd DC5 and am looking into suspension options. As far as I know it has the standard suspension and the clocks are showing just over 150k now so I think swapping out the OEM shocks will benefit it. I've also got some clunking over bumps and potholes and the LCA bushes...
