    Are irridium sparks plugs still a thing?

    Hi all, I've heard good things about those spark plugs, like the throttle reacts a bit better and that, but the question is, is it good to use it on a 17 years old engine? Also is this a good one...

    Loose wing mirror cover

    Hi I came back from holiday and found the right side wing mirror cover was sitting a bit away from its holder. It stays on but I can move it a bit into any directions and when I push it back it kinda jumps back to have that gap again. The mirror hasn't been folded since I got the Puma, which...

    Back box inlet too wide

    Hi guys Got a back box from eBay, guy said it was fitted in a Puma. The hooks add up okay, but the inlet pipe where it slides on the tube is a whole inch bigger. Around 2 inches on the Puma side and 3 inches in the back box. Any idea what should I do? Cheers

    Behind the centre cap

    Some low-life stole one of the centre hub from my alloy, and behind there is a nut/hole visible now. Not sure if that's how it'd be, as on my previous car there was a u-shaped pin as well. Is that how the Puma should be as well? Just wanna make sure nothing else missing from there, don't wanna...

    Removing tailgate badge

    Hi all, I've searched around but found nothing about this. I've tried to remove the tailgate badge by sticking a screwdriver underneath, that didn't help, just a tiny bit of chrome came off. How shall I approach this? Thanks

Any...

    Removable paint

    I'm looking for a paint for plastic, preferably in a can, that can be removed later with diluent, without damaging the original paint. I'd use black colour on the front bumper, to draw a line from the end curve of the hood to the side of the front bumper, kinda would look like an Evo X front...

    Ribbed back box?

    Fan belt question

    Hi guys My Puma makes a high pitch noise when the engine's cold, which gets louder when rpm raises. After 15 minutes noise goes away. I've tried spraying WD40 on auxiliary belt but no change. I've read probably the fan belt is loosen or worn and this should be changed with the timing belt. The...

    Auxiliary belt noise - I think..

    Hi all Noise can be heard as soon as I start the engine, its sounds like zip-zip-zip-zip :| and lasts around 20 min of driving, so the engine is well up to temp by then, after that it disappears. If I put her into neutral while driving, the noise slows down and gets quieter, but if I drive in...

    Which aftermarket exhaust?

    Hi all, I've been looking for an aftermarket exhaust, I don't want a loud noise box, just a bit louder than now with similar quality exhaust sound, I really like the original one, but don't wanna annoy the neighbours with the noise much. A little bit is still okay though. I remember a topic...

    Hi all I'm planning to change the rocker gasket as the oil leak is quite visible now. I've looked on eBay, but they don't look the same even though, they say they're for Pumas. Can somebody send me a link please, where I can buy the right one? Cheers
