It's more likely the nylon lugs are worn inside the unit. The central nylon ring self-centering catches them on self-centering, but it also has a certain amount of play.
If you remove the unit as per the how-to release the ring (held by four sprung legs) and pop an O-ring or two over it to take up the slack. It'll be trial and error to see what size - I ended up using two different gauges - it's been a long-lasting result for me as I didn't get on so well with building up the nylon lugs.
There are one or two other fine adjustments you could make at the spring end.

Lol. At the moment finishing my dissertation after 8 years. I remember at the start I attended graduate school trainings. Once in a training a young chinese phd candidate regarded me as an equal until he discovered my age: shocked he remarked I had the age of his father.

Currently on holiday until tomorrow
Then back to finishing bits and bobs off
Then at the end of October I will start on cutting the floor pan to allow me to both repair the crushed floor sections and also install the lower chassis/subframe braces to really tighten up the body stiffness
Then it will need the tracking and camber adjusting 1 final time to finish the car set up
Next year if funds permit, I’ll get the interior retrimmed and possibly do some paintwork as well to make the car ‘as good as new’
Cheers Jamie

We visited the village of Tremolat on the Dordogne.
The local primary school displays the lunch menu on their notice board.
Can you imagine UK school children coping with the attached ? Sounds OK don't it. The lived experience however having put 3 children through French schools from primary to uni was somewhat different. French - the language of "diplomacy"...

This year I've decided to make the Christmas meal earlier, primarily anticipating many folk will still have their car on the road in October. Venue yet to be decided, but highly likely to be within a few miles of Bury St Edmunds at a country pub. So save the date and reply if you're interested.
Many thanks,
Andrew

Well we have had our abarth punto evo ss for 11 years and it has only just let us down. Aircon broke; absolutely love the car. We have never kept a car as long and it's staying with us for eternity or until it starts letting us down lol

Hi guys Do Lancaster Insurance still offer club discounts? Lancaster went quiet after their initial approach some years back. I think you'll find that a few half-decent companies recognise car club membership as a positive - though it might be worth asking how much it affects each quote.

In June I capitulated and bought a set of 215/40/17s off ebay in quite good nick and since then the collision with archliner top and fouling the arch on lock has disappeared. It might be just a tad firmer but has solved all the issues

Thanks to everyone who came from near and far, although Andrew C's coupe had an issue, so instead he brought his fabulous 3.2 litre Busso engined Alfa 166.
Rain stayed away too and it wasn't a hot day either.

Many thanks Jamie. If I was doing myself and had time I would get them to recline, however many father-in-law wants a local mechanic to do with the cambelt and powersteering pump, and it’s his money.

Unconnected, I see in this thread there was an owners' guide book available, written by Joe Knight and Neil Barnes. Is it still available?
Hello Tim, welcome to the forum. I purchased a copy of the book last year from Lulu (I think it’s printed on demand), more details are here: https://www.fiatcoupeclub.org/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/1464371

This could be the green coupe, I have reported not long ago, as being in Hamble. It appears there parked quite regularly. Black wheels as I recall. No ‘takers’ for it yet. T
