Hello lads

My 1998 XEDI has suffered a annoying vibration whilst driving.If I thrash it through the gears you cannot tell but a going up through the gears early is a no no! Been under the old girl today because I was informed it is probably the exhaust bracket at the manifold end. It wasnt

Checked along the prop and the vicous is in a sorry state (And im no expert

)

The picture is to show what side im talking about.........

The outer ring is basically fso loose its about to come away, there is a rubber inside to it which im assuming is perrished.

Now ive found this on evilbay........

Hoi Madhat I'm no wearing that. Yer first answer was impolite to my 'twaddle' free simple question about wheels. You caused the start of the playground name calling spat.

Ps. wtf a vortex review

Pikey · Feb 17, 2008

Get over it saddo. FFS

REVVER · Feb 17, 2008

Hoi Redhand no more of that kind of talk, you bugger off, this is between Mad Hat and me. He's well able to look after himself.

Pikey · Feb 17, 2008

Daft dunt play wiv the saddo's he's instructed me to tell yer he ain't interested in your pointless drivel so fook off.

REVVER · Feb 17, 2008

Hoi Redhand I would imagine you'd need to be instructed in nearly every thing.
LOL

Pikey · Feb 17, 2008

Yes but unlike you I only need telling once. Whereas your like a computer. The instructions have to be punched in.

REVVER · Feb 17, 2008

Hoi Redhand You punched that reply in well, Thats the nearest to English youve got in a while. Your not going to turn all posh on me now are you. Now bugger off and start a wee thread of your own for a change, instead of jumpin on the band wagon all the time.

Pikey · Feb 17, 2008

Which part of '**** off' are you struggling with?

ianda12 · Feb 17, 2008

The bit circled in yellow isn't the VCU, its a torsional damper and nothing to do with the coupling. (only the 1.8 petrol models have them).These can be replaced seperately from the VCU. Some people have just removed the metal ring or cable tied them on when they have come loose. Just because the damper is knackered it doesn't mean the VCU is.

ianda12 · Feb 17, 2008

A coupleof pages from RAVE that might explain previous reply

The diesels have em too...or are ya being a fuel racist

Methos.

zx12arrgh · Feb 17, 2008

Either that or ive been putting diesel in a petrol car all this while

The Mad Hat Man · Feb 17, 2008

thats why the ebay link he posted was just for the damper

REVVER · Feb 17, 2008

Hoi Redhand steady on old chap your losing the plot. Anyway I'm ****ed of with all this, I'm sure you are too, do you want to go down the pub for a jar or two, and talk Landrovers, welding plants, lathes, etc, etc, etc.

PS. I'll even branch into soffits if you like.

Me dozzle has got the damper (partially fooked) so maybe the silly git before me put a 1.8 petrol (vcu) one on he had lying in the shed ?
