lost my frontera cherry.

Got our 1st Frontera.

(Mod edit. Pic resized. Dan)

Alfa Romeo 155 sold
VW camper T25 Sold
Vauxhall Vectra V6 Swopped

Now a Frontera. Wife loves to bits, although still throws it around like it is the Alfa

a few bits and bobs to get sorted, but nothing major. Looking forward to a few meets. Never driven off road but my Wife can't wait to find some mud. (poor car) What are they like off road?

Somebody else now got the Fronty bug..... :lol:

Hi Mate, Nice Fronty, Welcome and enjoy. ATB. Reeco

I was told that the car has been wired so the cooling fan is always on. is this a normal problem is it it just a bodger not wanting to get it fixed properly??

can you remind us which fronty this is ...(engine size) :wink:

2.2 petrol

looking good!!

Hi and welcome to the forum

Looks clean but plenty to do to get it perfect, sounds like exhust is blowing. Had 2 rear sections recently so Manifold I suppose (it is a 2.2). Back hatch is very stiff not sure if that is normal. A bloody good service, leads, plugs, decent oil (what do others use?) Flush out cooling and replace. Also fan has been connected to run all the time so needs sorting out.
Apart from that, very happy.

Forum is great, just sent small donation, keep up the good work.

grease is the answer to the back door and hatch also lining up helps

get a grease gun and force loads of grease in the hinges

post 1995 have an habit of breaking hinghes which are NLS

The manifold is normal if you have a exhaust manufacturer near asjk if they can do a tubular one

Hi dajwid
I would take the fan off first its very easy to do and check that the rad core is all there my motor is the same as yours but a year older and had cooling problems i found over half the core missing. Nice motor though.
