It bites with small amount of footbrake with bias turned to the max. RE: The Racetractor...FCS wounded - Seb_Ryan - 04-07-2016 Is there tits on the rear pads? Cant remember now.. If there is they need to be lined up properly Sent from my LG-H850 using Tapatalk RE: The Racetractor...FCS wounded - Piggy - 05-07-2016 (04-07-2016, 10:33 PM)Seb_Ryan Wrote: Is there tits on the rear pads?

And yes they are ![]() RE: The Racetractor...FCS wounded - Piggy - 05-07-2016 Spoke to GAZ... £13 later and they are sending FOUR damper bushes for the rear dampers first class post. #win RE: The Racetractor...FCS wounded - dr_jekyll - 05-07-2016 Couldnt of got a better outcome! Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk RE: The Racetractor...FCS wounded - Piggy - 06-07-2016 Bushes arrived today... So got on with that as it was first decent summers eve for car stuff this year Tried again on the o/s caliper. Its working lovely...tried readjusting...footbrake it bits immediately. Handbrake just does almost nothing despite it all operating as it should! So weird. Also adjusted exhaust a bit...had melted into fuel tank ![]() Exhaust heatshield and cosmetics and i'm good for Pugfest. Got new brakes bedded in too...well...they were smoking anyway RE: The Racetractor...Pugfest prep - C2K - 07-07-2016 How can it be working properly if you don't have a handbrake? Would suggest the internal mechanism is misbehaving or the cable not set correctly, but no detail to work with. RE: The Racetractor...Pugfest prep - Piggy - 07-07-2016 Can see clearly the cable operating perfectly. With the dust boot off, can see it operating. But it just doesnt apply enough pressure. You can feel a change right at the end of stroke. Its as though the "cam" profile is too shallow!? RE: The Racetractor...Pugfest prep - cully - 07-07-2016 favourite is the lever shaft to seize enough so the spring don't return the lever fully not letting the self adjuster work RE: The Racetractor...Pugfest prep - Piggy - 07-07-2016 (07-07-2016, 08:51 PM)cully Wrote: favourite is the lever shaft to seize enough so the spring don't return the lever fully not letting the self adjuster work Wish I understood that. If i did...I would probably agree as i'm think something eternal not adjusting as it truly only begins to do something on the last few degrees of arm movement RE: The Racetractor...Pugfest prep - C2K - 07-07-2016 Cully hit the nail for me, self adjuster not adjusted. ![]() RE: The Racetractor...Pugfest prep - Piggy - 07-07-2016 Way to fix or enforce adjustment? RE: The Racetractor...Pugfest prep - welshpug - 08-07-2016 free off handbrake arm and stomp the pedal. RE: The Racetractor...Pugfest prep - Piggy - 08-07-2016 (08-07-2016, 06:21 AM)welshpug Wrote: free off handbrake arm and stomp the pedal. Yeah tried that as first port of call when I first found the issue. Been there. Got the tshirt. As they say ![]() The Racetractor...Pugfest prep - Tom85 - 08-07-2016 How recent are your handbrake cables? My OSR handbrake was barely working failed MOT, all looked OK in terms of operation but the cable had stretched so wasn't pulling evenly with the NSR (you could see the cable adjuster was lopsided). New OS cable fixed it and I was back up to 60% efficiency! RE: The Racetractor...Pugfest prep - fatlapit - 08-07-2016 I will have a full working system that will be coming off my 306, including callipers, wavy discs, pads, cables and the handbrake itself. could be available. holds the car fine on a tilt bed trailer. so id say its pretty good. RE: The Racetractor...Pugfest prep - Piggy - 08-07-2016 Cable is fine....hence how I can say its operating the lever fine The Racetractor...Pugfest prep - Tom85 - 08-07-2016 Ah OK. Mine looked fine too and I could see it moving the lever - just not far enough compared to the other side. RE: The Racetractor...Pugfest prep - Piggy - 08-07-2016 Nah it goes 100% RE: The Racetractor...Pugfest prep - Poodle - 11-07-2016 Did you pump out the pedal before reconnecting the cable last time you wound the piston back? Tbh if all these suggestions are no good then the handbrake adjuster mech is worn to the point the caliper needs replacing, which i've not seen before - they never normally survive that long lol. RE: The Racetractor...Pugfest prep - Piggy - 11-07-2016 Yeah I did pal ![]() Just have to fire on another caliper I guess RE: The Racetractor...Pugfest prep - Piggy - 11-07-2016 PUGFEST 2016... Only tools used were bar to check wheel bolts, tyre gauge and a screwdriver to swap plates. Thats a win in my book. Managed 8 runs in total...not bad going as I only prebooked 4, paid a tenner for 2 extra and had a frenchy buy me 2! Win. Returned well... Need to find this crunching knock...so plan is to refresh the entire suspension and replace both driveshafts with new. ....then its time to move on I think. RE: The Racetractor...Pugfest report - Piggy - 12-07-2016 Thank you kindly to ZX_Volcane for only two decent pics of my car I can find...

Started today after being sat since Pugfest..."on the button"...very nice... The crunchyclonkyclunk though is loud and violent...this weirdly makes me happy as it hopefully now means its more obvious to find!

Would be scared of binning it or breaking down Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk RE: The Racetractor...Pugfest report - Piggy - 01-08-2016 So ...making a list to finish off the jobs I should have already... IE fix the horn Redo manifold Rebuild coilies and resr beam Tidy wiring Replace cheap fuel lines Paint rear floor New bumper fixings Tidy pipework up Finish arduino screen and switches.
