Have a high pitched squeal/ squeak, when pulling away slowly, as I build up speed it disappears. Also now and then there's a slight rumble from the rear, wheel bearing do you think? Cheers, gaz ...

Great, sorry to ask but I'm relatively new to all this, ask me something t4 related and that's ok! Anyhow, how's it removed, and is an extra cup holder easy enough to get hold of ,thanks, gaz

Morning folks, is it possible to remove the coin tray and replace with another cup holder? Cheers, gaz

Right, I've been keeping my eye on this for a few weeks now, the pedals getting really stiff, kind of a crunch when it gets to the floor, the pedals not got lower, just stiffer, when the cars cold, it's fine, seems to get worse as the car gets warmer, changing gears seems stiff too, does this sound like the pedal box is slowly on its way out. Cheers, gaz -
Just looked under the car this morning and there's 6 or 7 little spots hanging on the bottom of the engine, all in different places, sure it's some kind of seal/gasket, could be a sod to locate it, gaz

Definitely not radiator related the dripping is working its way down the back of the engine, can't see any split hoses either.

We'll after two weeks of ownership I'm working my way through the list of faults, I was aware of most things as I used these things to knock the price down, had a full service last week all good no faults apart from a tiny coolant drip, had a pressure test anyway and head gaskets fine, I've placed a tray under the car on the drive and there's half a mouth wash cap full come out in two weeks, only seems to do it when engines been on a drive and warmed up, mechanic who done the service seems to think it's the inlet manifild seal gone? Anyone else had anything similar, gaz

Thanks for that, mr carmats looks very good, think I'll go for that, by the way how do I put some pics on ? Cheers, gaz

Hi all, had the seats and carpets shampooed today, they came up a treat, so now I'm looking for some decent mats so not to get the floor filthy again, ideally want some with the holes in for the clips, been looking around and there's hundreds to choose from at all prices, any one recommend anything, or have a good original set for sale. Cheers, gaz

No, can't see any cracks, if I turn the engine off and sit in silence, let the cluch in and out, there's a click just as the peddle is about an inch off the floor, the peddle itself sits at the perfect height, the next day I'll sit in silence let the peddle in and out and theres no noise at all! I think I'm driving myself mad. As I say the clutch and peddle box were done 9000 miles ago, so I'll just carry on driving and see what happens, nothing more I can do really. if it gets worse would the peddle drop. Cheers, gaz -
