    Hi, May cars started making a knocking noise from the rear. It doesn't have to be when driving, I can just bounce the back by hand and it will make the noise. I read somewhere about this being down to a loose fixing somewhere in the boot behind the trim. What does it sound like to you guys? http://vid1310.photo...zps74b62653.mp4

    I think the clips may have been added by the garage when I had the clutch changed. They mentioned something about a heat shield being rusty/falling off and clipping it back in place. So should I look into getting new cats or is it just the heat shield that need replacing? Any tips on reducing the cabin noise?

    Hi, Just trying to understand my set up as the exhaust was on the car before I brought it and there wasn't any paperwork. Looks like a Cobra resonated system to me including Y pipe, but what about the rusty old Cats? I find the cabin noise a bit intolerable on the motorway with the hum around 70-80 being the worst, so wondering what I could do.

    Finally got mine installed today. It may be worth pointing out that if you have small hands you can get the VS fitted through the air filter hole, no need to take apart the hole thing. I just lifted out the air filter and had enough room to get in it. It wasn't even that tight. Cheers flyboy.

    Someone on jalopnick researched the plate and it had been on the car since 1991.

    Slightly strange that the plate isn't on the car in the pictures on Autotrader? Makes me think pictures are old. If it is the guy (DarrenB) from the forum he seems legit. You can see all his posts here https://www.google.c...afe=off&start=0 Plates probably worth ~£600 (if you could auction it on this site)

    Doesn't have a stubby Ariel, so probably not a forum member. Seems a little cheap to me, could be a good deal.

    Have you tried flicking the fans to get them going? That worked on mine, so I know they are not completely dead. Still getting the whole unit replaced though.

    I got mine replaced with an Exedy on recommendation from Japex. Had my slave cylinder (clark motorsports), flywheel (japex) and clutch (japex) replaced It came to just just shy of £1k (inc labour)

    Probably good to post approx location. GLWTS

    Might be good to state the colour they are now and the colour you want them to be. If they are similar tones you might get away without an under coat.

    Turn the ignition on and then turn the air con on full pelt, both fans should start up after a few seconds. When mine were on the way out the one fan would start and the other would need a little push.

    All pics work fine for me on Chrome. Its the hosting site being blocked, (I'm at work), don't normally find that an issue with this forum.
  19. Randy_Baton
    All the pics in post 1 and some in post 2 are missing? (I'm using Chrome) And for some reason the wheels in Post 3 seem to have BMW badge on them

    The main reason I don't do this is that it would bring me 20mm closer to kerb rash every time I park.

    Never had an Indian co worker use their surname . Are you sure you've got their name the right way round? Sometimes email credentials go surname.firstname@xxxx.com I've got confused because of the email configuration before. And yes Singh is a common surname, think is to do with the Sikh religion.
