Abarth Grande Punto / Gearbox Repair Questions

« on: October 20, 2017, 03:44:10 PM »

Hi, I'm hoping that someone with more technical knowledge will be able to help me.

My car has fallen to the dreaded M32 Bearing failure curse. I've taken it apart and the gears are completely gone but the housing and clutch seem to have survived.

My first questions is, is there an Vauxhall gearbox that could be a straight swap? If not are all the internals the same and I can just swap them into my housing?

General Chat / TomTom Sat-Nav Abarth Content

« on: August 04, 2015, 02:13:18 PM »

Hi Guys and Girls,

Been playing around with my TomTom 820 Sat-Nav and created a few bits that some of you might like.

First off we just have an Abarth logo on a Carbon Fibre backing useful for the start up and shut-down screens.

Second is a new car symbol of the Abarth S2000.

Third, I've gone through and cataloged Abarth Dealers and Service providers across the UK and created a POI list (Places of Interest)

And finally number four, this is an image icon. When installed with the POI list will display all locations of the map with this image.

The link below is to the TomTom website that details how to install these onto you TomTom unit.

Does anyone know how to remove the side skirts on the AGP? One of the side skirts has come away from the body and got some special tape to try out.

Abarth Grande Punto / Brembo Brakes

« on: April 07, 2015, 01:22:47 PM »

Don't know if anyone can help me. Was the Brembo Brakes Standard? Or optional extras on Non-Esseesse Cars? I need to get some new pads and want to make sure I'm getting the right ones.

Abarth Grande Punto / New Clutch

« on: February 28, 2015, 11:20:53 PM »

Starting to get a little clutch slip in the high gears so going to have to replace it at some point. Question is do I get the standard clutch, or is there a better clutch on the market for the AGP?
