Boxob Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 If it's a tinny rattle it's likely heat shields. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edc Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 Some of the best roof down drives are in the cooler crisper weather. You'll soon find out as you get longer into your ownership Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont bother driving mine unless I can have the top down. I had some really enjoyable top down drives through last winter. Heater on 27deg. Seat heating on. Wooly hat on if you need to. I have got my winter wheels/tyres ready to swap on next month. All set for those crisp sunny days. Bring it on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alank Posted September 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 EDC , I was reading about when you first got your car( nice, my favourite wheels) and you mention about the lateral movement of your stick, did you manage to restore it any better, as mine is exactly the same. I looked at the gearbox end and can not see any obvious places to grease. ( seems just a cable End Cup fitting on to a Ball on gearbox lever, in 2 positions ) Am I missing something else to grease. many thanks alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edc Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 I replied on your other thread and on my running report it also goes on to say I had the cables replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
