    C V joints

    I think the same as you, over time dirt etc. has got in. On closer inspection I think one of the four is Ok, but For peace of mind I think i will change them all, need to decide which are the best quality, heard differing stories of different makes.

    C V joints

    couple of reasons for taking them off, started to get a clicking on left corners/turns, and MOT man pointed out damage/ deterioration of the boots. there are some noticeable grooves on some surfaces, general shiny patches on others.

I have the large black relay,I did have doubts when I took the relay out of my T25 and noticed the terminal numbers were the same ie. 49,49a & 31 as the black one. And there was some confusion as to why the...

    Indicator relay

    Hi there, I have been told my relay was discontinued in 2000, advice I have so far, is adapt a modern 3 pin, or try a motorcycle 2 terminal relay.
