    Finished off fitting my bargain carbon bonnet fitting





    Really like the look of the car without the vent and holes in the front; and after being stuck in traffic for an hour yesterday it didn't over-heat, so clearly the holes weren't really needed anyway.

    Re: Vauxhall Corsa 2.0 XE Club

    So, afew weeks ago something happened with my clutch; Whats happened to my clutch

    As I had a spare afternoon I thought I'd have a go at getting the box out myself. Took 2 3/4 hours which to say I only had one trolley jack and was by myself I'm damned happy with.



    ..found the offending part:





    Annoyingly it was a motor factors part, ah well - lesson learnt. I also found my crank sealing is leaking quite badly. A trip to Autovaux later and we have new flywheel bolts, crank seal and clutch release bearing.

    Will be trying to get that lot back together over the next couple of days

    Re: Vauxhall Corsa 2.0 XE Club

    At least its a relatively inexpensive fix just a big pain having to take the box off and as always one job leads to another.

    Good luck on getting the gearbox back in with just yourself and a trolley jack though.. I tried that once its not good.

    oh and if you havnt already done so get some of the vauxhall rtv for the crankseal its really good for squirting down the grooves.

    Garage will be filled with something else with a griffin as soon as the big bits of this one are gone. My heart just isn't with this car anymore.

    I've moved onto the whole house/ wife / dogs... but I specifically wanted a house with a garage so I'm not going to waste it

    Re: Vauxhall Corsa 2.0 XE Club

    Corsa managed to make its way to my new house under its own steam. My garage is only halfway to how I want it to be, but it was satisfactory to strip down the car.









    TBs already sold. Expect a for sale thread later in the week once the shell has gone and I can get pics of all the parts Hope its been an enjoyable project thread
