curvy's good they actually look surprisingly good, ive seen them on a 5 before which is why i got them and thanks, me too

how dare you slag avril off!!! lol ok but be nice to her and im coming with you so i can yell at you for hurting her

theyre not on it yet, had them for a year but theyre currently sitting in my boot

can u stop trying to talk urself into getting a gen 6 gearbox for MY car, i want to keep it 100% a 5 (mechanically anyway, yes i am aware i have gen 6 splitters) Everything you just said Ive already said, and yes the slipping has got worse but weirdly only today (il let u drive it round the block when you get home if you dont believe me) putting it back into first gear when slowing at traffic lights was a bitch today, and then it didnt want to come out of first when i pulled away. and yes Briano, I agree, Bek would have seen the leak, and im sure i would have noticed it too, it only gets driven once a week at the moment so if i had any kind of leak im sure I would have noticed a wet patch under the car. Im pretty sure its fine and its just the clutch wearing out.

yes thats the way i get it to go into gear, i have to do that or i cant drive it

yeah it is getting worse. started off with just reverse gear a few months ago ( i say a few months ago but its likely to be longer as i only passed my test in april so didnt drive very much before then) not wanting to go into gear occasionally, then it wouldnt go into gear first time at all, but since today every gear is doing it everytime i change gear. happens both when going up gear and going down gear

the clutch needed replacing when we bought it, i guess it just really needs replacing now! il ask dave to start saving thanks peeps, huge relief that its prob not the gearbox

pretty high i think, its kinda hard to feel it lately

Il get Dave to check it out after work tomorow. Would that affect the gears aswell as the clutch? I cant really describe what happens when changin gear. Its kinda like a lump, the gearstick gets halfway into gear then its like theres something stopping it going fully in and i really have to pull it. Could the fact I dont drive very often have something to do with it?

the clutch has needed doing since I got the car so yes it is that aswell. Will replace both the clutch and the gearbox when I can. The clutch actually feels normal, well as normal as it can do for a 22 year old car. Not sure how to describe it but over the last few months it has been getting slightly looser, like its much easier to push down, but it was worse than that a year ago, Bek drained the clutch fluid and replaced it which really helped but that was ages ago now. Its only recently Ive been struggling to get it into gear, I always have to take it out of reverse and try it again. I have no idea what a slave cylinder is, remember Im still a newbie when it comes to stuff like this lol Btw, Dave says it is the gearbox so Im just going on what he says

My gearbox has steadily been going downhill since we got the car and for a few months its struggled to get into reverse first time, but today while driving its having issues getting into all gears, especially 2nd gear. I really have to force it and it crunches a little. I know I need a new gearbox and clutch but how long have I got til its completely dead and undrivable?

carbon wrap coz I get to do it

hiya thanks for the offer, I may have sorted it but incase they arrive and theyre not right I'll bear this in mind. theyre about 24mm long, 4mm wide and i think i need 4

i would nick daves but his car is still on the mainland, hes still using mine. he fitted my new bumper and broke half the screws. he wont let me work on my car myself

i would but its shut in 10 mins and dave starts work before it opens on weekdays and hes borrowing my car at the moment so i cant get there either. was hoping someone on here had some or i could order them on ebay

Afternoon peeps. Does anyone know what size screw this is? Its from a gen 5 door card and its the screw near the inside door handle. Or does anyone have any? Dave's fitting my livesound doorcards and he's discovered theyre the same screws that hold in the speakers into the doors so we need a few extra. Ta

£250 sounds a very good price. Im getting the whole of my car sprayed for £600, and I thought that was good!
