    You sir is killing it an you're one of my favorite channels right now all Caterham. Great video and very well explained by Ollie. Keep it coming mate 👋

      Thanks 😀 if only the CZcams algorithm agreed 😆 Ollie is very knowledgeable and I really appreciated his time answering my questions. It was great that he didn't mind being on camera either. Hopefully this will help other owners.

    Thanks James, very informative video and many thanks to Ollie for sharing his knowledge. People with Caterhams who choose to complain about all the noise and clunking they make always entertain me somewhat.. what were you expecting..

      Thanks. I think it's hard if you are a new owner to know what is normal, whatever normal is 😆. Plus the more I talk to other owners all Caterhams seem to be slightly different. I agree though I never expected a car with no noises. It's all part of the experience I think. Ollie is a lovely chap and I really appreciated his time. It was great that he wanted to share some knowledge.

    This is the one I have been waiting for! So much great information here thank you.

      Hey I'm glad you liked it. I'd like to do more like this. It was a great day and really informative.

    Brilliant video and a really interesting topic to cover James.
    I’ve got a ZF LSD in my Ford casing, rebuilt by R&RT a number of years ago, still going strong with great pre-load. It is quite noisy, but checked and all’s good. I actually quite like the bangs and clanks.

    Thank you1 Glad that I have the sintered version!

      Hey yes glad you have that version. I can't wait to try mine on track.

    Another fantastic video James, well done. I think most noise people experience with Caterham diff is just crownwheel and pinion noise as it’s always there when coming off throttle in straight line ! Suggestion for next video would be to look at the Meteor Motorsport Independent Rear Suspension kit. Want to know how it transforms the handling of the car and to what extent it makes car less prone to hopping and skipping over bumps

    • @ACaterhamCalledFern
      @ACaterhamCalledFern  Před 5 měsíci

      Hey thanks. Yes always noises of some sort or there always is in Fern. Maybe I should do a video of guess the noise 😆 that is also a good shout about meteor. Also very freaky as I'm literally emailing them now.

      Hey no problem. It took a while to edit this one. I learnt so much at road and race transmissions it was a great day. Hopefully this video will be helpful to other owners.

    Brilliant and relevant video James. I would like a custom set up for my ZF. How much do Road and Race charge for this service?

    • @ACaterhamCalledFern
      @ACaterhamCalledFern  Před 5 měsíci +1

      Thanks I thought it would be helpful to owners. It's best to phone or email road and race transmissions. Their website is in the description of the video.
