Welcome pal!! Ill second the Ball and socket answer very common problem, from memory you could buy a nice repair kit for that and it wasnt to dear either. The hunting thing mate there is loads of little tricks you can do like Golf Loon says too many sensors but loads of things to try mate. Great Dubs the MK2 served my apprenticeship on them. Clean the ISV with shellite and reset the computer, pull the blue temp sensor off rev the engine to 3000rpm 3 times set the co if you can. Reconnect the blue temp sensor and rev her again to 3000rpm and we are done mate .Happy Days

Hey thanks all again for the advice

Yeah i am from Victoria and i am very tempted to perform all sorts of mods to the thing as i know theyre very tuneable but ive been there done that before (the spending of ones paycheck week in week out on ones car)

I gave it a bit on the freeway today and was so surprised at the smoothness of it at 150-160kph, my mate in a new holden astra turbo was certainly surprised that a car which cost 30k less kept up with him

Can u guys point me in the direction of a good manual? Please dont say Haynes...hopefully theres something better? then ill be able to have a go at these sensors...
