Re: S1 Gearbox 4 speed problem - Third gear jump

Thanks for all the advice Huib and fellow forum users. I am glad to report all my gearbox issues seem to be resolved: After a few hundred kms no oil leaks visible: I replaced the two front seals and the sideshaft seals, as well as all the gaskets. I put some sealer on the surface inside the half sha...

Re: S1 front suspension torquing front suspension

I usually find it to be high after jacking it up for suspension work etc., but that pushing down on, say, the front cross member with your body weight settles it down quite a lot. If you replaced the front spring lining especially it may take a little time before settling down. Is it sollid when you...

Oil cooler - which hose goes where?

Hi, I have looked on the workshop manual and parts book, but it is not clear which oil cooler hose goes where from the oil filter housing to the oil cooler. Which of the hoses in the attached picture goes to the top of the oil cooler?

Re: S1 gearbox input and output shaft leaks

Any tips on removing the front seal in the belhousing? I have all but destroyed it by trying to use a sharp pic to pull it out, but I can't get it out.

Re: S1 Gearbox 4 speed problem - Third gear jump

Following this topic with interest - I was convinced that my car dropping out of 3d gear must be due to the 3d-4th slider being reversed previously only to find it installed correctly. I am currently focussing on the selector mechanism. I will follow Marnix's advice and tighten things on the outer s...

Re: S1 front suspension torquing front suspension

Thanks Huib, I have converted to S2 bushes on the lower arms. I bought the kit a few years ago as the S1 type bushes were not available. They are however now readily available. For the top arms I used S1 type bushes. So for the lower bushes I will need to set them at the correct height. I might chan...

S1 front suspension torquing front suspension

Hi, I have just replaced (on my S1 coupe) the front upper and lower wishbone bushes, spring buffers, shock mounts and anti-roll bar bushes. I am looking for the height to set the suspension before torquing everything up. In the S1 workshop manual the only reference I can find is to "setting the...

Re: Inspecting bearings without removing engine

The distance between the head and pistons measured at between 1,0 and 1,2 mm today, so the engine builder will put a thicker gasket between the block and crankcase as per Huib's advice - thank you so much!
