thank you

Other Car Sales & Wanted / Vacuum One Way Valve with pipe 1.6 driver

October 13, 2020, 07:23:37 PM

Can anybody help.
I'm after a one way Vacuum Brake servo, valve with pipe as well if possible.
Proving hard to get new, second hand is the way to go.

Part number 191611933 E

Engine & Gearbox / Noisy engine on start up after oil change *

July 20, 2020, 10:03:10 AM

Just done a oil change on my 1.6 driver i bought the car recently so have no info on history etc.
I used Euro car parts TRIPLE QX 10W-40 Semi Synthetic oil and Bosh filter first question is this the correct grade for the engine? it is high mileage 147k.
The engine was fine before the oil change but now on start up (from cold) its very noisy, suspect Hydraulic Tappets?
Why would it be worse with new oil?
It does quieten down quite a lot when its warmed up but is still there.
Any fixes or anyone had this problem i cant be the first?

Suspension & Steering / Is it Possible?

Would it be possible (don't laugh), to safely run corrado 15 inch Speedlines on the my Driver 1.6 with adaptors from 4x100 to 5x100. Not sure on the fitments etc wheels are not my thing tbh.
So if anyone can steer me in the right direction would be great.
As these wheels have new tyres on shame to waste them.

Hi,
Just become a owner of a 1.6 driver this will be my daily drive. I was driving my Vr6 Corrado as my daily but it will be retired for a while.
I will most likely be asking you guys questions/ advice that i cant answer myself.
