Never had them done, how can i test them?

Hi all, My car recently started making a front end click/clack noise. I cant really decide when it happens. If does not seems to occur over bumps, but might seem to show when driving for a while(10-15 km)? Have sort of noticed it frequently when going slighty to the left, but nothing...

Agree, at first I hated mine, but after 5 flawless year, i really like the way it takes rpm and the fact that is hold the pressure( mines a 4 kg flywheel) Yes is does rattle, especially when warm, yes it does get jammed in gear, but if you give et some revs, it releases.

I always let the car get warm gently and allow the car to cool down, the only reason for changing the turbo was, I had it in "stock" and the manifold=>turbo gasket had to be replaced. Really didnt want to see the old turbo die, when I just spent alot of money on the gasket fix. Regarding...

£550 in Danish money (Workshop prices at a retail SEAT dealer is around 120£ per hour):o) I saw JBS stated 5x50£ to take of the manifold, so I have to be less or equal to that in UK.

Try to get a Iphone or similar with a decent camera down there to get a picture, it might reveal something

Hi all, Recently my car had started with a ticking "noise" when cold, the sound decreases when drivin for about 10 minutes or so. Suspected manifold gasket...but... Isnt this the clear evidence??

Does anyone know what happens if the canister is disconnected shortly to identify other tickings?

Hi all, After break from the "endless" repairs, I had my belt+waterpump changed lately. The mechanic noted the car had a ticking, which he thought came from the manifoldarea(may'be leaking manifold/gasket). However, I do hear it on startop when it idles, but after a while/warmup, the only...

This fix was??

Yeah that would be brilliant!! NOT! :o) I hope it just woll from the middle box and not the rear!

Actually looks like this, just not that much!!

Hi all, Last week some chunk of 2-3 meter "pony-hair" ish stuff lay in my driveway. Didnt think much of it, as i might just have dragged it along. However, 5 minutes ago, I saw similar stick out of my backbox, what on earth is this? Is this the resonating stuff that comes loose or does...
