Hi, Thanks for that thought I missed out on something
on my valver.
Thanks again

My GTi has done just over 60000 miles in the 14 years that I've owned it, but since we got the first C4 in 2013 has done very little since then apart...

They were only 0.7 apparently so running quite weak, although it still pulled like a train!

Go steady, running lean melts valves! On tickover, you...

Throwing a lot of money at a resto project is easy, getting it back is another story. This maybe one of a kind but at 25k, are you sure? Nice tho.

Its defo a scrapper unfortunately too much rust the sills turned to dust and so did the boot floor tho the A pillars seems very good around the...

Don't know much, but when we bought a big van, we went for the Fiat as it had the Iveco lump in it. Much more durable, but same van. That was a 2005...

Dvla in swansea may be able to help with that. Should be able to contact them with an email. But its a pain to find the area you want on their...

I love seeing photos of this car. Minter!

mot ran out in August 2007!!

Nice to have no advisories... well done.

Well done, good to hear a success story. Don't throw the old Solex, I'm sure it CAN be refurbished.

The ball joint was a prick! I choose widely and took it into the garage for them to do it. We used what was a near enough new one from the o/s of the...

Jees, there was a lot on that!

Lhd mirrors are different though!

Had my 19TRS since '94, so 22 years. It's been off the road for three years but is gradually on its way back. Brought it with me to Australia. I've...

Well, I got away lightly. What fooled me was that nearly all the dashboard lights came on so I assumed a general electrical fault. However, the...

Hi Vanny

I've tried sending a PM a couple of times and both messages seem to be just stuck in my outbox for some reason.

My personal email is a...

Might explain why they badged it as a 17/1.7, when it's actually a 1.8.

Just like the 16RE, with 80bhp, was badged as a 15RE.

Thinking about soundproofing, would using dynamat make much difference if used to replace the plastic sheeting behind the door cards ? I'd also be...

you are correct that will teach me to type on an empty head. I have 3 BXs with reverse under 5th but that one has reverse left or first

Finally their website is back to life:

Just download catalogue you want and look for BX - they're making less and less parts for it but something...

Never had a prob sourcing bx bits, any good motor factor should be able to supply service parts such as filters, brakes, belts and the like, for...

He will be missed by me as well. He always came up with whatever I wanted and promptly too. Only one thing defeated him; piston rings for a TD, so I...

I hope darren does join, I've found to be a very nice chap, a BX nutter and very knowledgable.

Life's too short and we can always use more active...

Yes, number 9 what I am referring to with 95630572 although you are right in that 1988 could be number 10 too.

It was the OP's part number of...

Much like Tim said, I can not rate them highly enough! Being a 20min drive away from them helps to. But more so, they've become like a second family...

I still use PCs/laptops for home use for the many things that I use my PCs for.

Like playing 'The Rise of the Tomb Raider'..... just try that at...

Seen worse. They sort of suit that car.

Oh, link's gone: must've sold.

Yeah spell check on the iPad lol

Try to push the front and then the back of the chassis down, while the engine is running. It should go quite easily down (at least 8-10 cm), and if...

Way2go

Took your advice and went back; he agreed that this figure could lead to overheating and increased bore wear. He used the bleed screw to get...

my TZi wafts and rides as it should and is LHM tight now too! I cant recommend chevronics (and of course my mate Barry at Bourne) high enough.

You can pick it up from any gasoline engine with carburettor, it's used only for the original Citroen diagnostic device I have none seen to use..

This is good news! Would love to know where it is and in what condition. Used it as my daily driver 2011-2013. Great car! Hope somebody is getting as...

Never had a problem of squealing brakes. I've used all brands of pads and discs, and I don't think it's all about luck. Because mine is not usually...

11 GTs left last time I checked. Into single digits soon I expect. Rare beast, which is a shame as they're one of the nicest BXs to drive.

Mine are still original after 234k! Yet I've had others on a BX fail after less than 100k.

I would say go for it. Dont mind the grumpy old men who only think that rational things are allowed to exist.

People that makes the effort to make a...
