Re: I've just bought a van...
UPDATE: Tom has been treated to a lots of new metal. He passed his MOT Today, so that means I can get stuck into sorting the bodywork blemishes, windscreen rubber, leaking quarter lights, major service, engine tune up and Interior. I do have a brown folding passenger seat, where can a source a drive...

Re: Strange banging/clanking sound. Help ?
Just to let you all know.. The engine has been removed and no bits of clutch fell onto the floor.. so we are no closer to finding the cause of the noise!

However it makes the same noise when going over speed bumps ( I do...

Re: Strange banging/clanking sound. Help ?
Right thats ok then.. The rear springs are all good. I will check the clutch, but it does not make the noise when stationary anyway.. However it could be something with the clutch as lately it feels as if (when im changing gear) that i have to push it into gear with some very slight resistance, I th...
