I am in a very bad mood....
« on: 27 October 2012, 19:07:59 »
With my car....

Especially given the recent LPG unreliability, and the fact it's changing roughly into top gear despite complete fresh ATF and metal thrust washer...

If it fails it's MOT on Wednesday next week, Its going to be pulled into a thousand different peices, and there will be a 530 diesel on the drive  in it's place >:(

Jamesv6cdx > to the pub.

And me.
I waited ages for it to stop raining so I could change the steering idler.
Jacked the car up, undid the nuts and pulled the idler down noting horrendous play in it.
On trying to break the ball-joint loose I discovered horrendous play in that as well.
No wonder it wanders really badly.
So, I put it back together and went to the pub.
New cross shaft to be ordered on Monday.

   This may be a silly question, but have you recently changed the leads? I ask as on the auto 24v sennys and carltons, if the quality of the leads wasnt as good as GM, they would affect the gearbox ECU and it gave all sorts of driving/ gear change problems.Just a thought.
