Can anyone confirm if the slider bracket (if that's what it's called) fits both sides? Ie non drive will fit the drive side caliper in the right place.

I'm trying to troubleshoot an issue and want to switch parts from side to side to check.

And check headlight aim afterwards.

Just replaced all my suspension and rear mounts were perfect so kept.

Fronts were also good except one of the rubbers where spring sits was cracked so just replaced this.

Mine is a 2001 with 55,000 miles

Suspension is all good now, nice & tight without any knocks etc...

Also did you fit the stock maf tube with the stock injectors ?

Here's where the Wideband sensor is.



And the MAF tube is the same diameter though the sensor MAY be off by 1mm.. I shall raise it as this is exactly what the point of the maf riser isn't it? EDIT: it actually needs to go lower doesn't it?


And yes stock injectors are back in.

Fitted a new o2 sensor to fix the engine light, and MOT passed with no advisories. Decided to tint the front fogs as I had the tint wrap sitting in my shed since last summer.

Car now up for sale on FB, although no rush to sell.

You need to take the turbo out of the cooling system, reconnect the hoses and try filling it.  I bet it fills just fine.

Coolant wise i would drain it out again at front then refill from rear as normal but go slow, make sure bleed pipes are on and open etc of course.

Hmm.. possibly could do that... in fact yes that's a good call..ergh.. not looking forward to that again.

finished the lower rear suspension arms today, yet again with engine running and trying the bleed screws occasionally. Still no joy.

Strut tops next to be tightened up and then it's wheels on and I can do the centre wheel nut thing on the passenger side.

I did notice that the AFR values are sitting in the early 20's... which is possibly a product of the zero'd out emanage map? or 2:1 configuration of the O2 sensors? no idea.. but I think I'm going to remove the emanage and have the boost limiter set to like 1PSI or something and try and drive it gently without the piggy back and watch the AFR values..

reversed the polarity on the oil temp/pressure gauges.. and yet again no joy.. they still don't work.. so no idea there.. do these sensors go bad???
