Hi, Has anyone ever it a gti6 engine in a 306 sedan? If so, did you incur any problems such as vibrations on the passenger side, gearknob wobbles, I have changed almost everything from bottom mount, ball joint, axles and the problem persists. I am rolling on 17's with 40mm springs and koni shocks. Any ideas/suggestions on the cause of my problem? ________________________________________ RJ |

vibrations happen on take off its as if the car has so much power it can't stabilize. Also every time I accelerate and change gears...vibration. Most of the time it feels as if it is from the passenger side. I tightened the subframe problem persists. Can the shock mount cause that?________________________________________ RJ |

The symptoms you describe immediately point me in the direction of an unserviceable driveshaft.  ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

I forget. Talking about anagrams, though, and I remember 'slide my balls' is an anagram of Miss Ladybell. ________________________________________ For we are many.PS£ ID: Monkey369 |
