  1. I got down and dirty this afternoon with the car, went for a quick drive to make sure the oil was warmed up, then back onto the drive, tested the filler plug first, both came out with a little elbow grease. The oil was mostly grey with sort of foamy looking bits in, but it may have mixed with some of the wd40 that dripped off the plugs I undid. I replaced the oil using a piece of clear tubing fed down through the engine bay, funnel on top, worked well and saved me buying an oil pump It started to spill out of the hole just as we got to 2 litres so I assume it's spot on going by what I've read
  2. Thanks guys! Today is finally the day, will report once I've been out and got the gear, I hope so badly that it works!!!
  3. Will do, I'll report back when I've got it to that stage, thanks for the tips
  4. Ahh wicked thank you I'm prepping for a pretty hideous garage bill but I'll get some fresh oil in so maybe I can delay the pain for a while
  5. Well my Clicky noise has quadrupled in volume, rendering 3rd gear unusable, it still pulls a little, but I don't dare put it in. It's beginning to make a light tick in 1st now, and there's a tapping noise when Its on tickover, this completely goes when I press the clutch pedal in. If anybody can help me please do, I'd appreciate it massively.
  6. I'm fresh from a search in the hope I can diagnose this, I've just done a 150 mile round trip to the coast and on the way down I noticed a Clicky noise, initially I thought it might be a heat shield rattling or something loose, but it turned out it was only in 3rd gear, it gains speed as you accelerate and is definitely only happening in third. I've tried going though previous posts, but it's really awkward to specifically search without knowing the issue itself, so hopefully somebody can please fill me in? Thanks
