View Full Version : The SR had its MOT
and passed with flying colours!
:thumb::cool:
Had full fluids service and carb tune - bloke said the filter I'm using (ramair) is actually allowing too much air in and I'd prob be better off sticking the old bin lid back on - which oddly I'd been thinking about doing recently - now its getting a tad cooler up here.
Runs really nice - handbrakes nice and tight (3 notches to fully on!)
The squeak on the clutch pedals even less than it used to be!
lol
Said it was the nicest cleanest car hed worked on in ages!
:cool:

congrats on the pass mate xe conversion at national day lol
1.4 SR here: No squeak on mine :P
Glad its passed though Ade :)
Well done Ade lovely motor
I've had,
mk2 SRi 130
Cav GSi
1.4 corsa
And now have a 1.2 mk2 Nova and the clutch frog won't leave me alone!!!!
I actually thought summut was wrong initially as there was no squeak at all - it felt wrong - like the car was spoiled!
then is slowly came back and now is a tiny frog...
car is complete again!
without a squeak it isn't a Vauxhall
Ive never had a nova without that squeak ade, but my cav when i bought her did not, now after all the mods ive slowly done to her over the years, she has acquired the very same clutch squeak, how cool is that, she is pretending to be a nova lol

thats cos she wants to be a good car rather than a poor relative of a donor car lol

I like that comment cos youve finally admitted that a calibra is a donor car lol
And fcuk off there nothing wrong with my cav, part from the fact she aint an estate so i cant throw my bike in the back lol

Kind of on-topic-ish but anyone want to give me a way of getting rid of the frog on my clutch pedal, mine is getting out of control lol
try some dry lube on the cable at each end.

Shall do thanking you...although to be honest I SHOULD have tried that before. It's never really bothered me that much, but getting loud now, its competing with the stereo lol
