Had the same problem on my car, I fixed it by slackening the wing mounting bolt just below the corner of the windscreen (access with the door open) and re-tightening while pressing down on the top edge of the wing. Not sure why it happened but it works fine now
Hope that helps.

Cheers Paul

Can anyone please tell me where the VSV is located on the Mk2 I know someone breaking one but he can't find it. (it has air con)

Thanks for all the help and comments

cheers for that just gotta negotiate the price now

I can pick up a set of 5 BBS alloys locally "worth the money" :D but wonder if they are ok for the Mk1. According to what I have read the correct size is 14" 4x100 pcd 35... 38 offset and 54 centre bore. The wheels I am looking at are 14" 4x 100 pcd 35... 42 et and 56.5 centre bo...

mmmmmmmm 10/40 semi synth seems to be the popular choice so it looks like a visit with ye olde trade card to Halfrauds in the near future

The reason I asked was because I want to have a go at changing the indicator lens to clear a la Jimi but don't want to f$%k up the original lights JUST IN CASE i make a hash of it, so going to buy a set from a scrappy to experiment with.

Put your location up mate and people in your area can sometimes help , we like to help each other out :thumleft: oops left that out when registering, #-o I am in Northern Ireland must change my details. What I have seen of this forum so far really appeals to me, no sign of any prima-donnas, everyon...

I have read that Mr T says to use 15/50 oil. I have some 15/50 fully synthetic is this ok or should it be semi-synthetic or mineral

Thanks a lot
