On a 182. SERV and traction light comes on as soon as I move the wheel away from the centre position. All the lights go off when the car starts up and it works fine but as soon as the steering wheel is moved the lights come on. Any ideas what would be causing this?
When I dropped the subframe...
As some of you may have seen from my other project thread, I picked myself up a fairly cheap Arctic blue 182 on Friday!
It's pretty much standard apart from a milltek backbox with custom decat/centre section, Apex lowering springs and Trophy Recaros. It also appears to have a very strong...
Hi all,
I'm wanting to get another HDD and set up some sort of Raid arrangement on my PC as I'm starting to build up a lot of photos and videos I wouldn't want to lose if anything every went wrong.
My current setup is:
Windows + Programs on an SSD (this will stay as it is),
All documents...
If anyone's interested Halfords have an extra 15% off all tools and garage equipment just now until 2pm today.
Some good deals to be had if you can combine it with trade or other offers! I just got myself the 3 piece bundle of industrial toolboxes for under £300 by combining the offer with the...
Does anyone near Silverstone (or even better at japfest today) have steel seal/quick steel or something similar, or know where I could get some today?
(Mods please move thread if required, wasn't sure where to post this)
Has anyone ever had issues fitting these? I can't get the bottom of the shifter tower to line up with the linkage properly. The holes look out of line
Think my only option will be to elongate one of the holes to make it fit, which I don't really fancy doing tbh.
Spring rates, talk to me! Currently the only thing I'm struggling with picking for getting new coilies. I realise it's a very personal thing but some opinions and ideas would be great to make sure I'm in the right ballpark with my figures.
Current plans are nothing too serious with the car as...
Thought I'd stick a thread up about this one. Helped my mate out with his new 440i at the weekend as he wanted to apply Exo to it but naturally wanted it swirl/mark free before going on.
Products used were:
Autoglym shampoo (advised him to get something better once Exo had been applied)...
We've not had a meet on here in ages now, so what better to kick things back off than keeping it simple with some coffee and donuts at Krispy Kreme? Weather dependent, we might even get some decent photos.
I'm thinking next Thursday evening (the 13th) and meet up around 7pm ish?
All welcome...

Last weekend I gave my car a proper clean and decon in prep for giving it a quick machine polish to remove some light swirling in it. Didn't have enough time to do the whole car, so not wanting to leave it unprotected, I fired some Hydro2 over it. So, couple of questions about this, because...
@Dannyeff, @rctempire, myself, and maybe a few others are planning on going for some ribs at Tony Roma's in Braehead this coming Monday, so figured I'd fire it up on here if anyone wants to join us.
Usual script; meet up about half 6, all you can eat ribs for £20, leave unable to walk. Repeat...
Alright everyone, this years ClioSport Festival is only 3 months away now and it'd be awesome to get a big crowd of us going down from Scotland! There's track time for those who want it, and for those who don't it's generally just a fantastic weekend all round with loads to do.
Weekend tickets...
Well, CS Areas Day is back for 2016, and what better way to kick the year off than with a drive up to Glenshee! Being into April I'd hope the snow would've cleared and any track cars among us should be prepped and ready to go!
Route is yet to be finalised, but would be an early morning start at...
Right, so there seemed to be a few people on the last meet thread saying they'd be up for karting. There's no dates set yet (but would probably be a weekend), just trying to get an idea of possible numbers here.
Initial thoughts were for a Super Grand Prix at Raceland in Tranent (see here for...
I currently have 2 ph1 gearboxes (one in the car, one lying spare) and I'm after some advice as to what one is best to get refurbed.
I originally planned to refurb the spare I have lying, but it has a fucked diff cup bit that the N/S driveshaft slots into, and also definitely has had loads of...
Ok everyone, fancy having a little get together at the end of January since it's a bit of a boring month! I'll leave it open for ideas just now but I was thinking keep it simple, meet up and go for some food. Although if people aren't too skint after New Year, could always get some go-karting on...
Yes, it's over 6 months away still but the date is set so might as well start the planning!
Full details to follow once they're announced, but going by last years prices, it's £10 per driver and £10 per passenger. Might be slightly up from that but it gives everyone an idea of pricing.
So...
Righty, not organised a meet in ages so time to get something sorted.
Bit late in the year now to be standing about in car parks or anything generally outside, so I vote Krispy Kreme. Plus, everyone loves donuts and coffee!
Date is Thursday 10th December, say about 7pm. Hope to see some new...
Well, this isn't a clio, but there's a good knowledge base on here so thought it was worth asking anyway.
Its a vauxhall vivaro van, but I believe it's the same engine as in the laguna dci, 100hp one.
Basically it has no low down torque at all. It almost drives like a petrol. So far we have...
The usual! Who's up for another ribs meet?
£20, all you can eat, this Monday night (24th). Meet between half 6 and 7 in the car park at Xscape/Soar/Intu/whateverthehellitscallednowadays.
Short notice but I'm in the mood for some ribs soon so thought I'd try turn it into a meet!
@rctempire...
The Detailers Box is a new car wash and detailing shop opened up in Glasgow stocking a lot of decent brands like Auto Finesse and GTechniq.
I've spoken to them about getting a little meet organised for us, and they're happy to have us along for a day.
There'll be free tea, coffee and juice...
Ok guys, not much in the way of details yet as it's just an idea, but does anyone fancy a run out up round Loch Lomond and maybe up Fort William direction? Nice drive up round the roads, stop of for some food along the way, pictures etc.
Thinking Sunday 28th June. Hopefully the weather improves...
@Martin_172
Pretty sure I just walked past you at your work. Would've said hi if i'd noticed before I was walking out the door! You looked busy anyway lol
Tony Roma's Endless Rib Mondays, need I say more? Who fancies it?
Aim for between 6:30 and 7pm on Monday 25th

Endless Slab Mondays
Just £19.95!
All you can eat and...
Title says it all really. Car had been stuttering a bit at around 1800rpm the other day under gentle acceleration, but this morning I left for work and it was a lot worse. Car cut out on me when pulling away from two separate junctions. Pedal to the floor and it just never done anything.
Feels...
Evening all, had an issue with the car that I managed to diagnose as a driveshaft (wet side), so I got another and went about replacing it tonight.
This was the old shaft
As you can see, the bearings have all fucked off somewhere inside the box.
Worse though, I found it had done this to the...
Next meet, Thursday 16th April, 7pm, at the Showcase Leisure Park. Postcode G69 7TZ for any satnavs getting used!
Is anyone up for bowling? Will need numbers finalised by the 13th April latest, to make sure we can get the lane(s) booked. If there's not much interest though we'll still stick...
