  1. I've just noticed that the top of the steering wheel on my new (factory built) 360 is a few degrees to the left when the front wheels are pointing straight ahead. I could leave this to the 1st service but if it's a simple fix I'll have a go. The (non quick release) boss doesn't want to come off the column. I see there is a splined universal joint adjacent to the steering rack. If I loosen the clamp bolt would the column pull out and go back in easily? (in the correct position).

    Thanks

  2. I need to top this up and can't buy the recommended  Motul stuff locally. I have some Comma Super Longlife Red  OAT left over from my previous (Sigma) car. Would that be OK? Or Ford Superplus Premium?

    Thanks

  3. Jonathan - I'm not sure a photo would help as there is nothing to see.

    Speedtrip - I'll try that if all else fails.

    Tom - Mine may be a different design to yours. It's a new car and the quality looks inferior to the the ones on my previous 7. The  screw holding the mirror body to the arm goes into a nut held inside the body by a spring and bowl shaped washer. I can't see how to re-combine the 2 main parts without gaining access to the inside of the body. I'm in East Kent and may be in the market for a mirror!

     

     

  4. I've managed to separate the main body from the metal arm (don't ask). Is there a way to open it up so I can re-attach it?  It's not obvious.

    If not, anyone know where I could buy a replacement ?  Caterham don't list them.

    Thanks

  5. My Roadsport 140 has always done this in the seven years I have owned it. The level goes up after hard use then down again after pottering. There are no leaks and I came to the conclusion that air is being entrained in the system at high revs then making its way out with gentle use. I haven't yet heard a more plausible explanation! 

  6. Hmm, some mixed messages. Thanks all. I'd be grateful if someone could provide an actual measurement though as I could compare it with my current car which has 80mm clearance and has never grounded. The new car is a standard S so won't have adjustable spring platforms.

  7. I have a new one of these (S3, 13inch wheels) on order and have noticed a couple of negative posts on here about the ground clearance. Before I look into switching to 15 inch wheels is there an owner who could give me an actual measurement to compare with my current Sigma car?

    Thanks

  8. Does anyone know where I could buy some please? . I can't see anywhere selling the good stuff on Google. I'm happy to pay an expert to apply it on the tricky bits but would like to save a few shekels by doing the flat or single curvature bits myself.

    Thanks
