Had clutch cable & plastic clip changed a year or so back so clutch is fairly light & smooth, but still experiencing stiff/Clunky gear change. Any ideas folks ?

Just bought some of this to try. [/img]

Had to get the towels & bucket out again yesterday. Whenever there's any driving rain/wind, it finds it's way between the lintel stone & the top of the patio door frame. No doubt others will get this during such weather. Can anyone suggest a good sealant to cure this ? Thanks.

The best car I ever owned. the Mk2 & Mk3. They can be picked up for peanuts. Any Cavalier fans out there ?

If I were in a position to get a new car, that would be perfect, but for now I'll probably run it a while longer

Very sound advice Avocet. Thankyou. I think I'll wait until I'm better equipped to keep one, garage, expense etc. There's a good Citroen Guy called Ray Calvert at C&C motors near to us. He's doing up a D Super 5 at the moment.

I had a Mazda with a dent. It cost me £60 & you could still see the ripples afterwards where he did it. Waste of money in my case.

Thanks, that's very useful. I heard that the D Super 5 was the best option. How about the no garage issue. Could that be a problem ? Also what do I need to spend to get a sound every day runner ?

Just wondering if anyone might be able to roughly value my 1999 T Xantia Hatchback Sensation. Around 90,000 miles. Work done in last year or so... New complete exhaust New clutch cable & clip. some new tyres New powered steering LHM pipe just fitted MOT until May 2010 VG - EX Cond...

I'm thinking of doing the same. About 11 Sq metre's of concrete slab patio. Been down for about 20 years & wanting to overlay with Indian Stone. There's plenty of distance from damp course & air bricks too. Be a sight easier than taking the slabs up.

I'm needing a new set of wheeltrims for my Citroen Xantia. The confusion comes when I see trims advertised for Xantias in both 14 & 15". Also, my tyres are R15 which I presume means 15", but I read somewhere that 15" tyres need 14" trims :? :? :?

There's a coil of pipe pointing downwards that you can see if you look under the car just inside of the front n/s wheel. The LHM seems to gather on that coil & also on part of the inner wheel arch. Nothing dripping over the tyre/wheel though.

My 1999 Xantia has a LHM fluid leak that drips on the near side part of the engine. Drips appear on the ground near the front NS wheel arch area. Any suggestions/guidance welcome

Our crazy paving is in need of re-pointing in certain areas & I just read some info on brushing a dry mix into the joints & leaving it to dry through ground moisture etc. I didn't know about this method but it would be a sight easier than with a wet mix. I'd like to hear anyones opinions/tips...

Don't know if I'm on the right thread here, but I'm looking for a Digital camera for around £80. I've had the HP Photosmart M425 recommended but other opinions are very welcome Cheers.

That's the one thing that holds me back from getting a DS. We don't have a garage so it would have to be kept outside, also I'm not mechanically minded. I hear they need quite a lot of TLC to keep them in good order. There's a guy near us who's a Citroen specialist who's restoring a DS right...

Our roof has asbestos based tiles & also has a lot of moss growth. We are considering having a cleaning company do it. I was wondering how much this would be for a med sized mid terrace house.

Weather permitting, I'm going to be pointing in the cracks in my front yard's stone crazy paving this weekend. I just want to check the best mix ratio for this type of job. Also, I heard it's good to add PVA to the mix. Is this right ?

Just love these old cars & gotta have one someday. Curious to hear from anyone who has or had one.

My Daughter has an Acer Aspire laptop. On powering up, the lights come on, but no noise & a blank, black screen. First impressions from a guy at work are that it's probably fried & beyond economic repair. Any comments/similar experiences ? Thanks :cry:
