Smashed window - drivers side and rattle from CAS

Postby SJ » Sat 06.10.2007, 15:07

Due to me being a moron I left the drivers door open the other day whilst the car was on the ramp in the garage. Ramp goes up window goes POP ! What a tit.

So.........I need to know:

Where can I get a window? How much is fitting?

The reason the car was on the ramp was there is a horrible rattling noise coming from the Cam Angle Sensor - would it be best to fit a new one or can this type of problem be addressed?

Thank you in advance for your assistance

On the ramp for cas inspection ?? :? :shock:

I think DaveT 'may' have a window, but he's in the Isle of man for the weekend.
Drop him a PM

Sounds like the bearing in the cas has gone. They are available in the states at a reasonable price. ($100 ? + postage + duty)
Have a look at jimbobs thread in the 'Project' section. I'm sure he posted the part numbers there.
And if you are doing a group buy get me one :lol:

Good luck.

On ramp for general inspection - new brake lines just fitted and was doing oil change.

I have full SE Torbo as spare at mo but that was the window I broke! Glad it wasn't mine, you'll see it for sale soon I'd imagine - just new hood and an MOT and sort stuck wastegate.

I'll put it on here first rather than e-bay - I rekon about £3k. BRG H plate 99 thousand miles with shoddy re-spray (not that bad)

Fancy it?

Hmm, 'Mrs Dico do you mind if I have another £3000's worth of spares in the garage?'
Can't see it happening, but its sounds cheap enough :)

If you know anyone that needs it get them to send me a message - like I say, minter she isn't but a bit of TLC and you have a £5k car.

Open to offers before I do the bits I intend to.

Regards

Later today, I'm delivering a car to Surpherphil in High Wycombe.
In the boot are two side windows - already removed.

You might want to approach him.

FYI windows come in two tints - Greeen and brown (bronze). These are green - but you can hardly tell them apart.

Note: I have just locked your identical thread in the Problems area. Duplicate threads cause nothing but problems. I've copied my reply into this one, above.

Unless you have a mix and match fitted to your car.. :roll:

Not sure if this is the same thing, however Lotus are selling off surplus stock of a Hall sensor not too well up on this but may be worth a look

The hall effect sensor HES is the electrical sensor inside the CAS. It sounds like SJ has a problem with the bearings in his CAS so, unfortunately, replacing the HES will not solve his problem.
