Thanks for posting Datatek ..... shortly preparing for our trip to Angoulême and will take note!

+1 for Ashcroft.

I've installed a GROM USB 2plus with the bluetooth receiver option. Connects in to and replaces the CD changer plug at the back of the head unit. It plays usb stick and which is overridden when you play via the bluetooth connection or receive a phone call. No need to touch the headunit at...

Again, I hesitate to reply, but all I read when I had this problem on an earlier P38 said that the steering damper isn't a significant factor in a shake as serious as this. The problem was I think caused by the bushes -- poly comfort? but I was able to cure it partially by tightening the...

I just checked how I fixed mine. I used the link from a front sensor and held to the trailing arm with a jubilee clip. I aligned the rubberised eye of the link with the patch of rubber left where the original had been as well as I could, then checked all the suspension heights. Has been fine...

From what i have read (and I have a very tiny wobble even in the mornings :)) it can be the sum of a little wear in all parts of the suspension and steering. Not much help, is it? Again, from reading, the single biggest contributors are the swivel hub joints. Possibly followed by worn...

You have to find the rubber "bracket" and fix it back to the trailing arm ...... either using an adhesive or, as I did, a jubilee clip carefully aligned. I prefer a mechanical fixing to glue, but that's just me, as there must be very good glues out there. Without the rubber bit you are stuck...

Ah, well, "remove" in this case would mean "break". I don't think that this particular piece of rubber (or whatever it is) perishes as such. Although mine came away in me 'and it was still flexible; it had come away before and been glued back. See if you can get to it and check.

The rear rubber mounts are bonded to the trailing arms. Well, they are meant to be bonded but don't seem to adhere very well. There is no pin and eye, unfortunately, like there is for the front ones.

Bife! The connectors are rubber and bonded to the trailing arms. I broke one of mine and have now clamped it back on with a jubilee clip. You need to trace exactly where the rubber bit was sitting by looking for a patch of the rubber left on the arm, then retrieve the broken off bit, align it...

Steering box?

It is behind the side panel, top of transmission tunnel, at the engine end. You might be able to reach it, just, without pulling the panel.

The French is a dead give-away ... better to do search than rely on my memory.

Nice wheels (most in Portugal are 16 inch). Check that the air suspension is working ... looks a bit high at the front?

Oh, and 2,300 Euros to convert it to lpg .....

What year is it? Front indicators have been changed - probably should be orange as it has the older fog lights. Make sure it is not because of an accident. GEMS engine.

For the rear diff .. consider 2 new axle oil seals and also replacing the ujs at the same time. Have a look around the air bags and pipes while you are there. I've never done it, far too heavy for me!

Front right door latch - micro switch problem. Don't leave it too long or the rogue lock motors will be damaged.

When they do the underside make sure they don't spray any goo near the a/c drains or gearbox cabling ..... Or any other electrical connectors that might suffer from the stuff.

It's a GEMS, isn't it? I have a boxful of old sensors for the Bosch ...
