Hi, having just replaced the front one drivers side, the rear offside (driver's side) has broken. Please does anyone out there have one at fair price please. Many thanks indeed. UPDATE===================================== Now obtained one from E-Bay at a reasonable price. One person I found (no one ...

Thodod, tried to PM but not sure if they've sent as it says 'submit' and appears in my 'outbox' rather than sent? Lee

Hi, my son would like to put his car back to standard 13" steel wheels from the 15" aluminium wheels. He has 2 (they came with the car) and now he is looking for another pair. Tyres condition is not an issue but the steel wheels must be in good condition. We live in Gloucestershire so not sure if it...

Logan 360 thanks. We find Haynes rubbish but you were right and it had just the info we needed. Many thanks.

Hi, the drivers door handle has broken so we have found another and now need to swap the barrel lock over. But we can't figure out how to remove the lock from the old door handle. There is a square recess on the back of the barrel which looks like it needs prising off. I can't see any circlip. Anyon...

Hi, my son has just bought a 1.4 1991 340 and he is now sorting out the niggly bits such as broken external door handles on drivers side and passenger offside (one of the little arms broken on each bizarrely).
Does anyone stock these or have a couple we can buy please.
Very many thanks, Lee.

Hi, we have a 340 1.4 1991 and we tried to change the drum shoes yesterday but could not see how best to get the auto drum adjuster back to start....The new ones would not fit on so we put the old ones back on....Help. I saw a knurled wheel but it would not turn despite some WD40. Does something els...

You won't have much trouble getting replacements from spares shops and eBay.

Many thanks indeed, Lee and just love the pun.

Many thanks indeed as due to your feedback and advise - ALL sorted!

Hi, I attach two photos of the distributor cap, rotor and distributor. I'd like to buy replacements for the first two - just in case. I can't see any contact breakers so I am assuming a) I'm blind b) stupid c) both or d) it's electronic???? e) something else. So help please, what have we got and whe...

Sorry folks, I have searched the site as I thought this will have been asked and answered many of times so it's apologies from me for not finding it... Anyway could someone please advise what tool I need (and size and shape of sump insert) to undo the sump plug so I can drain the engine oil. Also wi...

Very helpful, many thanks. I'm confused re FWD and rear wheel drive and how it matters as to where the wheels came from. Let me demonstrate my confusion...are we saying that the wheels themselves are balanced to reflect the FWD geometry (or whatever it's called) so naturally if you take the wheels f...

Hi my 23 year old son has just bought a 1991 1.4 340 5 door which has Rover alloys fitted (tyre is 185 55 R15). Are these larger rims safe? Will they adversely affect steering, heavy braking, normal driving? Or do I need to buy him a set of 13 inch rims from somewhere? I'm just interested in the saf...

Ah, very helpful as I've now got the drivers side window working with some WD40. The passenger's side is not working but I think the main reason has been lack of use so I have tried to WD40 the motor and winding mechanism but it still is not working. No noise from it but it is definitely pulling cur...
