Front Page Technical FAQ's

Post by kk-kolonel »

Hi Guys

I came on here to print out the How To section for a BX TD clutch. As I am changing mine tonight after work..
It use to be on the homepage but now whenever I go to that page it just redirects me immediately to the forum.

Is this information still available? I am not having much luck finding it on the forum through the search function..

Cheers

I hope it's still there. I know Mat was transferring stuff to the FAQ section on this forum. May need the clutch guide myself before long...

Thanks Mat

PS - very envious of your 1.9TZD Estate - its exactly what I want one day... I'm guessing this is a frankenstein of your own with a 405TD motor?

Here is the link to the clutch change guide. What I'm gradually doing (I had forgotten for a while :oops: ) is transferring the guides into the Tech FAQ for visibility and searchability. In the meantime we've taken down the old front page, and simply redirected straight to the forum. Phil Chidlow has kindly offered to create a simple homepage, but I know he's very busy at the moment!

Yes, the 1.9TD is my own creation using a Xantia engine; there's more info here... Very happy with it still, now over 50k miles later.

Cheers for that - I just ripped into it and got her done anyway.. Gearbox is back in the car and I've driven it a couple of times.. Has anyone else done the clutch and noticed that the "feel" of the clutch is really light??

I've had a LUK clutch fitted by Ken, & the clutch was quite a bit lighter than the clapped out old one, so yes :)
