Dump Valve issues
It's normally taken from the vac line from the dump valve... think that's the easiest option

Dump Valve issues
If it's anything like mine, you can possible loosen that to soften the spring... does it sound louder when you rev it when the bonnet is up? Can you see the piston through the trumpet?

Another suspension clunk question
Yeh I've seen the set, if the garage want to replace the whole caliper then bash on... not costing me a penny!

Dump Valve issues
Is the spring in the DV adjustable? Are you able to see the piston move when boost is dumped? Spring might be a bit too tight

Exhuaust confusion....?
Welcome to the club! Exhausts that are designed for classics *should* fit your wagon. Classics have different lenght downpipes and centre pipes. 2.5" fitment is the standard size, what parts of the exhaust are you looking to replace?

Another suspension clunk question
So the garage are replacing the entire caliper as they cannot get that single dust cover clip separately!

Haha! Quite right mate... let me know if you're going up yourself one time and I'll see if I can join you!

So how's the remapped car then?? :D

Another suspension clunk question
I'd never noticed before which way they were so had no reason to believe they were the wrong way around. Quite embarrassing for the garage since they inspected the car for the best part of an hour when i went back with the clunk, only for them to say that it wasn't the brakes and must be the suspension!!

A young guy in a citreon C1 tried to race me this morning... didn't even have to drop any gears
-
Another suspension clunk question
After even more research it is looking likely that the culprit is the caliper pin metal clamp thing... apparently the curvy end of it should be at the top of the caliper, whereas mine are upside down...
-
Another suspension clunk question
It's a shame as they are brembo pads and they were fine in my old calipers, does look like the original pins and metal clamp were used so will no doubt benefit from getting replaced
