3rd Gen - Starting Issue & Backfire

If it's starting to hunt as it warms up then this is the classic symptom of the idle control valve mounted under the intake plenum. When you open the valve on the thermostat housing you say nothing comes out? Does the radiator top hose get warm? Does it go solid like it's over pressurised? Have you ...

3rd Gen - Starting Issue & Backfire

I've never once had a prelude hunt at idle, the closest thing to a hunting idle in my experience was when the new timing belt was a tooth out but this was sorted by the garage doing the work at the time. Also if the idle control valve needs cleaning it can cause cold running issues but should still ...

Official LG Club Meet/camping sausagefest - in place of JAE...

I'd be more inclined to meet up at a more intimate event than a big show. Too many chavvy fat vape obsessives bragging about the decat remap popcorn exhaust bollox on their Skoda gttdarsebiscuit Felicia... Only sayin.

Alternator where can I source a new one

I found all my parts on eBay, I know it's not relevant to this alternator but the item numbers are;

263678956863

324587129389

294414253313

But then again they are probably the same parts 😸

Alternator where can I source a new one

I have just rebuilt my alternator it. I replaced the bushes, rectifier and voltage regulator. Cost me about £50 and took less than 30 minutes in my kitchen. If you Google the alternator part number and add rectifier etc it should yield the parts you need. Hope that helps
