    I need help. FN2 Type R

    Hi gents and gals, I recently acquired my type R (jan) and the auto function on the headlights only turned on the DRL's. Coming from a car that had auto lights, this was driving me nuts as i kept forgetting to turn on my lights. So i ordered me a new sensor, fitted it, and i'm still only...

    Squeaky Clutch Pedal - FIX!

    From what i can gather, there are two different types of squeak. The master cylinder one includes an audible click feeling i believe. I can Guarantee you the one i have is these bushes.

    Squeaky Clutch Pedal - FIX!

    What is needed is a steel bush, possibly hardened, with a transition fit (i mean like +0.05 mm all round) so that it moves on the assembly. But the centre hole would need to be a push fit on the spring so it doesn't wobble. I doubt it would wear the assembly as only the power of a spring would...
