Been a while but just to wrap things up here, I sold the ibiza last week. I honestly was sad to see it go and I will miss it but on to bigger and better things. The replacement is a lexus is200 sport which I've been driving for a few months and I love it so far. Slightly faster than the ibiza...
To conclude, the release bearing was w@nked. I can honestly say it wasn't anything to do with my driving. So not sure what happened there. I have the old clutch so will be taking it back for an explanation.
In other news, the car is making a low rumble when on idle, goes away when I press...
So I've got a 1.2 ibiza. 15 months ago I had to have a reconditioned gearbox and new clutch fitted. Car worked fine until two weeks ago. I brought it back to get looked at and they said the gearbox mount had broken and they replaced it. After collecting the car today, I'm getting all sorts of...
Good man. To be honest, posting something like a bumper from Ireland to Cumbria would be a pain for both of us and I couldn't guarantee it wouldn't get damaged/broken. I'd love to sell them to you but I don't think it would work out. And nobody in Ireland wants them haha.
Wouldn't mind an...
So to update this, things are going better with the car. Not doing anything to it, just taking care of it. Recently got the leak fixed and the car has no issues at all. Just tipping around in it until I can afford to upgrade. Car will be put back to standard then and all mods will be sold...
Just wanted to say I got this sorted. Whole brake system got checked and no leaks. Turns out it was a clutch slave cylinder. Got that replaced and fixed the leak.
ABS light - fault that came up was 00301. Something to do with the the abs return flow pump or something. Anyway I was told I...
My 1.2 has been leaking brake fluid and the abs light has been coming on and going off. Fault code was something to do with an abs pump pipe. I have the pipe because I found it when I took the bumper off a few weeks ago but had no idea what it had fallen off of. Does anyone have any idea where...
Hi Craig,
Haven't bought a replacement yet, still saving up but looking forward to moving on to bigger and better things. Ibiza is going a bit better now. Still not the same though so just getting it ready for sale.
What are you driving these days?
Not sure what the problem could be but can confirm there should be a clicking noise. I think I read somewhere that there is a little speaker behind the dials?
The old accelerator doesn't come off like the other ones, tt pedal goes over it. Soak the tt pedal in hot water for a while to soften the rubber, makes it a bit easier ;)
I'm sure not many people are following this thread but I like to keep it up to date anyway. So the second hand gearbox that I bought and fitted only 3 months ago along with a brand new sachs clutch cracked and leaked oil all over the clutch, ruining both of them. So I had to pay for another new...
