Licking 320Touring's Clio - Getting a new* box


Sloth in a bowl

Recommended Posts

Not the circlip'd in diff causing problems is it? Maybe some play or something. Though that said the circlips generally pop out and you lose drive altogether.

And yeah subframe off job for the box, be careful not to strip the fixings for the bolts in the body that's a total nightmare

Its done some miles since master SIAB picked it up for me, and appears to be at its worst when turning left and under power.

 

Whether its stripped teeth, or circlip shenanigry I do not know. I do know it has some drive though.

 

I'll be reading up over the weekend:)

320 touring is somewhere dodging trucks on the northbound side of the M6

 

We (320 touring, Chaseracer, myself) had breakfast at the Trucker's rest and a look around Cannock auctions (complete lack of decent chod) before the departure.

As an SOS has not been received on WhatsApp then I am believing that all is well*

I was greeted by tame shiter Sloth in a Bowl for onwards conveyance.

 

But not before I got a pic of the spectacular roof

The next stage was to sojourn to the garage that the Clio was billeted at.

 

Initial inspections were promising..

At this point, young Mr Chaseracer arrived with the key..

Once it was established that it unlocked remotely and started happily off the key, we got down to the SRS BIZZNIZ.
