Hello to all Merry Xmas and Happy New Year to All, may 2021 brings us piece and normality that we so much need.
My friends I'm here to expose some of my car problems, that some of you might have had it and solve it. And now I ask for your opinions.
I guess my engine is ok now no more smoke, still smells like burned fuel but I guess now it needs to run and clean.

Some times my TC and descent hill light come one. I was told that has to be with the brake light switch I have order a new one so I hope that solves that one.

Now my car is full of clunks. I have replaced both drop links but the sound on the left wheel (if you are inside the car) continues, a very loud clunk when go over a bump I have looked in to the torsion bar bushings and they look fine, my control harms are also ok no play there, I know the right track rod end has a bit of play, but not the right one (new ones are also on the way). So that clunk I cant see the reason why.

Another thing I have like a very loud road noise on the front, I was also told that could be bearings?
My gears are very loud, what do I mean by this....when engaging the gears we can hear it very loud shouldn't be smooth and silent ? When I turn of the car I can ear some clunk under the gear shift and one in the front to not so loud but its there.

I have a Chinese Nav double din. My car has the HC but the radio was kaput. I have fixed the speakers change the plugs but only the big front speakers and all the tweeters play the back big speakers don't. And now the front driver one is not playing also but the tweeter does????
To turn off the radio you just need to long press the main and only button, some times it does turn off other times....doesn't do anything......

I guess its all, if any of you had this can can enlighten me I would appreciate.
Many thanks

Hi.
sometimes the failure of the hd illuminates by fault cables of the switch, some is cut. When the light is turned on, just by manipulating it sometimes the light turns off.

Gearbox should run smoothly and without loud noises.

Happy new year.

Good Luck.
