Just got the 19 on the road and low and behold the Diff Curclip goes, been quoted £150 for a 19 16v box or £300 for a Willy 2.0 Box, it never rains, whats your reckoning? |

£15 for a new circlip and washer.
Even if youre set on a new box, you need your head looked at if you pay £150 for one (unless its brand new) |

I know I know, been down the Curclip route already 2 days it lasted and I wasnt ragging the car about either!!
I would rather have the Willy 2.0 box, but a new one is £600+Vat so I need a second hand one ASAP |

oh right well if the clip has already gone, a new box is the best bet.
Wicked Neo still has the spare box, i dont think hes putting it in the car any more... |

i didnt. i never ran the car the whole time i had it. Towed it back here, sat in the garden for several months, then broke it.
Had 96,000 miles on it iirc, but miles arent really a problem on the boxes. |
