Gone very quiet here ?

Been to cold and wet here to even think about blatting, and I’ve been to busy to even open the garage tbh

Worn shock bush / rose joint?

The only ones I’ve not been able to properly inspect are the rear uppers, but there’s doesn’t appear to be any play in the suspension .

It could be the fuel sender unit bouncing around in the tank. Does it happen when the tank is full or empty?

It’s too loud and to metallic to be that I think.

the other issue i have, which i think is also suspension related, is when you go over bigger bumps/ potholes you sometime get a horrible (bang/ crash) noise coming from rear of the car but whenever i look under the car i cant see/feel anything loose. I thought it sounded like it was coming from DeDion tube but HWM who service the car assure me its not that, so maybe its the dampers. Curious as to whether others out there have experienced similar and managed to trace the source of it?   

Yep, exactly the same here….

nothing obvious underneath the car either.

im starting to wonder if I have a dead damper.

biggest issue is this is the only 7 I’ve done mileage in , so have nothing to base it on, I terms of TATDS

Jal, I have a 150Sv on Billies, has been FF by DPR and is on 13s….

i feel very similar , in that I am not happy with the compliance of the ride…
 

I have spoken to all the suspension specialists and am still confused as it’s not something I know enough about.

i di feel the car is to “stiff”, and I believe over sprung and undwr damped…..but as I’m no expert, I may be talking bobbins.

as you say, on the crappy roads we have today, the car feels uncompliant and sketchy over bumps etc when starting to push on.

i have an offer to drive an SV with similar power and Core1 setup, but it needs to stop raining first….

Payment sent …

Just to close this out....the pump I linked to initially is now in the car, and the car runs and drives fine, the fuel guage actually seems less flaky than before as well.....

Thanks for the help one and all....

Replied

Yes please 

Just got home… here’s the

numer on the top of mine….

Ah I see… thanks 

Ok, so my next question is: am I going to be able to remove the broken stub in the pipe ?

how does that pipe detach from the pump ?

My car is 2007….

ive not yet checked for a number on the pump.

Plus it doesn’t look a huge issue to swap the float arms over 

Yes, I agree RE the float , but I can’t see that making any actual difference ?

it is just a float after all….

Jk, Redline have quoted £250…..

im 97% sure te pump I listed is the right one, I just wanted a sanity check….

Anyone ?

Just before I click buy, im

pretty sure this is the right  one ?

Anyone have one kicking around ?

Dave Rowe from DPR had some for sale recently ….

DPR would be my recommendation. They did my flat floor and a just of other jobs.

good company to deal with.

Possibly a stupid question - I thought all modern 7s had watts, dont know why.

Anyone have a picture of the radius arm option?

Whats the actual difference it makes ?

Am I correct in thinking, that if I have the quick release channels fitted, I shouldnt need to remove the knee panels ?
