Re: tinny kind of rattle

Its outside right underneath but can't determined which side it is.It sounds a fairly big item if you know what I mean.Just thinking,could it be possible its the engine,as the mounts are not very good,and a fair bit of play in it.

Re: overfilling gearbox

Filled it from the filler under the air filtering.Reason I ask is I have a leak after replacing my clutch and put 2 litres of fresh back in.Do you think its possible it could leak from somewhere due to overfilling. :|

gear oil leak

After changing the clutch on my 1.8 petrol,there seems to be a bit of a leak,and it seems to be coming from the half moon shaped tin plate on the bottom of the box on passenger side,the piece where there is a couple of 11mm bolts holding it.Any ideas folks.

fuel solenoid valve in front wing.

Since tifhrning the little screw up in the centre of this valve to stop the ticking noise,I have a petrol smell when the window is down.its definitely coming from that area,so is it possible I have upset anything.
