My steering felt funny while going around two particular roundabouts which were off camber. Got a bad rear shock but it felt like it affected the steering. |

Main issues haven't happened again since so fingers crossed the alternator has sorted it out. Will be taking off the aux belt on Saturday to see if I can feel anything. PAS feels a little heavy so cou ... |

I bought the Aero Vu wiper blades too. Great value for money. At a price where you can change them every autumn |

Mine went last year on way to Wales. The mrs kept sliding forward in the passenger seat which was amusing. Peugeot seat runners were over £100. Went to a scrappy and paid a £1. I had to take it off ... |

I was going to use self tappers and a blob of silicone. I thought about painting but then thought the self tappers would probably etch that off anyway. Just found a cheap set in Halfords so will run w ... |

Got a third world problem with my number plate in that it peels off as it's using the stick on pads. It's probably because it's in a surround but how do you guys fix yours to the car? I'm tempted to d ... |

New alternator fitted. Collected it so fingers crossed it stays ok. Got a slight whining coming from the PAS pump. Think it's the bearings. Anyone want a cheap 206?! |

It's massive isn't it. Doesn't make it worth considering going to Pug parts unless they're specific items. |

Air filter and oil filter are fine from euro or gsf. It's who I use. My last pollen filter from GSF was a slightly dodgy fit. ECP was fine though.
When I say 'genuine I mean be careful that you don ... |

I run NGK in mine, forums don't like them but they've never presented any running problems and are one of the biggest manufacturers. Bosch are good. Just make sure they are genuine which ever way you ... |

I'm pretty sure it should be quite tight. Was wondering if there was a rule of thumb ie 5mm movement between certain pulleys etc.
Anyway, dropped it off again today. Having a new alternator comple ... |

Can't be bothered with a new topic: How tight is your aux belt? Mine has an auto adjuster so should be right but it's currently squealing like a sewing machine. Sounds pretty bad. I can barely move my ... |

Well it's back from the garage but something is not right still. They had the voltage regulator changed in the alternator as that showed up an intermittent fault. They tested it for most of yesterday ... |
