Radio does not work until rev arrive to 3500 rpm.
Alternator is dead?

The ignition lock sometimes refuse to turn when I insert the key

Turbo oil return line leaks as much a bi*** does on a gym...

Have a serious vibration on front axle when reving up from 2000rpm to 3000 rpm
front axle damaged?

CLUTCH PEDAL HAS JUST DIED
I can start the car on first gear and then go on with no clutch...
(Pedal looks pressed but gear is in)

Serious noise coming from belts..


Paid for the car 3.000€ ($4560).
Laws in spain states that I can ask for a full refund, or for a full repair...
¿What should I do?
 
repair the ho the vibration is the cv axle minor your radio is a loose connection


your ignition is just getting old its a 92 give it a break just jimmy it a little bit

oil return just get new gaskets

the clutch is the master or slave cylinder

new belts is the best idea
 
see how long it's been since the belts have been changed, replacing them is the right idea but the sound isnt going to go away if they arent snug, esp. when it rains (ive had that problem very recently).

Radio could be a bad ground, or a bad connection.
+ check and make sure ## battery is charging, sometimes if you have deposits on the receivers it'll be a bi*** to charge (maybe it was installed incorrectly as the guy before me did on my car)
 
repair the ho the vibration is the cv axle minor your radio is a loose connection
what is the HO?
And explain me where the vibration comes from if you can please.


About the electrical matter:
If I let my car IDLE with the old stock radio (at high volume), with the lights on, car runs for 10 minutes. Then dies with battery deppleted.
Is it normal?

The radio connector has been installed by a profesional Alpine technician.


The clutch, can't be as easy as a broken cable duh?

I have just wrote an email to previous owner....
 
i meant the car

and as the cv axle is turning and if it is loose or about to be popped out then there is this slack in the axle and as it is turning that slack throws the balance out and causes the vibration

and yes the clutch could be as easy as a broken line but i was pointing out the major stuff

and it sounds like you need a new battery bud

because my car doesnt do that and possibly your altenator
