  1. ive done dimondbrite application for a client for less than half the price the dealer quoted him on his new merc. its rediculously overpriced, they get their diamondbrite kits in at like 35 quid and try and sell them for 300 + . Its easy to apply but when fully cured it can be a pain to remove in my experience

  2. hey defcon, turns out the gearbox is working as i had to start it in first then get the revs right to make changes to get the car home,

    this is what happened - i went to pull off from a stand still and all i hear is a loud snapping noise from up front and my clutch is on the floor. Checked the cable and thats fine.

    The release bearing has been noisy for a while and now where the cable meets the plunger that goes into the gearbox , that plunger has no stifness to it anymore, its loose , sorry if its hard to make out what im saying but thats all iu know for now untill it goes to the garage

    Cheers

  4. I smelt a horrible smeel whilst driving so i looked under the car when i pulled over and its leeking gearbox oil by where the drive shaft goes into the gearbox by the looks of it , it was falling on my exhaust and burning to cause a horrible smell , mt gears have also been a little stiff to engage , not a lot just a little ,

    The leak is quite bad , a drop every 3 seconds!! will this be a seal that needs replacing ? or something worse , this is my first problem with the loop :(
