Featured Replies

breaking my polo so have up for sale my valver.

its got 82000 miles on it had the cambelt done about 6 months ago, got a small leak coming from the rocker cover and a possible leak from the head gasket however I've checked the oil on a couple of occations to check that there okay and i haven't had to top it up yet so it cant be anything serious!

the gearbox has about 45000 miles on it, replaced this last year as my previous one literally shit the bed, oil all over the road and alot of smoke!

ran like a dream for about 6 months then the input shaft bearing started to wine..has done since and doesnt cause any problems, i just learnt to always have the clutch down in neutral to stop the whine. does this in first and second gear but really doesnt affect performance atall.

and gearbox I'm only asking £50
