Yeah thanks guys the fact it only started doing it after a really long drive makes me think theres hope that either wrong parts or even that they didnt change filter and just dropped the oil or didnt do the correct filling procedure as it was just a normal independent that did it.could even have use...

Out of interest what sort of cost is the gearbox rebuild

Hi all so I bought a 2004 c5 with 106k 2 months ago.had some suspension issues but all resolved but now I have a gearbox problem.after a 2 hour drive yesterday my gearbox has developed an issue.it no when I pull off clunks between gear changes at low rpm and if I put my foot down the revs shoot up a...

Ok so just an update finally fitted new coilover springs on the front and problem solved.it was that the old springs had gone weak.thanks for all the advice

Ah I see.ive took the preload down on the front shocks and put them on hard but still on bumpy country roads get a bottoming out feel.checked everything underneath and the springs have witness Mark's from binding .gonna lower the back suspension slightly as it is now about 5mm Lowe at the front whic...

Ok so checked all over.your right brake pedal has some play.dont think thats my bang but will sort anyway.whats the cure?also should there be 2or 3 rack bolts?

Nobby I did check the sub frame bolts and they were tight but nipped them up with a bar to be sure but no change.interestingly the front end was off and engine out only 500 miles ago before I bought it so I'm wondering if its linked.also had n/s front upper carrier and arms 1000miles ago

There not a brand I'd come accross before there PB coilovers.ive now started to notice some vibration through the steering wheel aswell.ive upped the preload and stiffened the shocks and it's better but still feels like bottoming out on hard bump.gonna check everything again for play and weak bushes...

Yeah checked it all over no play has had new upper arms and carrier on the near side too

I didnt originally fit the coilovers but when I changed on the other day I didnt.they looked in good condition and were a tight fit into the upper carrier

Ah this is a solid harsh bang.teally feels like its bottoming out

Hi I hope someone can help.i have a 2004 rs6 .it has coilovers fitted but over medium and large bumps it makes a harsh loud bang on both front corners as if the shocks are bottoming out.the front coilover shocks have been changed but no difference.i have check all arms and bolts I can see but I cant...
