It’s not something we use every day so I’d imagine yes it would last forever. Just depends how often you’re going to use it. The only thing I’ve found that really chews the batteries is the m12 die grinders.

Yeah got one in the work it’s great!

Toys got thrown out the pram.. Bought a Laguna though.

Not the worst job, but if you’ve not got the tools I wouldn’t bother, you can pick up a valeo clutch and flywheel from the likes of autodoc fairly inexpensively for them. Worst job about it is getting the clutch bled back up again. While the flywheel is off consider changing the bolts they are...

I’m sure you or someone had said this the last time the engine was out! Renaults are bad enough at shitting themselves standard without going and f**king about with stuff. It will be getting left as is and hoping I can get some of my mpg back to where it was pre melted piston!

Have picked up a lower miles Megane engine with 122k miles so pretty new in comparison to the kangoo lump! Set about getting the engine out of the van to see what went wrong and prep for the new one. Engine out and started to take it apart, culprit for dropping the coolant was this hose...

I had considered it, but the amount I’ve spent on this thing already is eye watering so standard engine it is.

I realise I never checked back in after my summer road trip, the van managed a. Bit over 4500 miles, I got down to Monaco for a few days and then on to Spain as far as Bennicasim spent a bit of time in Barcelona and ended up heading home… well a few friends where at the ring and I decided to...

Glad I’m not the only one, having similar issues with the van. Have done leak off and changed the dodgy injectors, seemed better but after a load of work I’m now having intermittent misfire on cylinder 4. Can’t offer any advice other than f**k motors 🥲 mine has always been terrible for a long...

I might be mistaken but I’m sure there isn’t any other injectors that are larger that will fit. Not sure on the fuel pump situation.

MDB 2561 is the correct fitment for 1*2 However shares the same part number with the cheaper pads so make sure they are actually 1144 you’re buying. MDB1613 is with wear indicator MDB 1518 larger pad with indicator (discontinued) Info available on mintex brake book online catalog

As much as I loved my 172 I wouldn’t have daily driven it. But mine was a little more on the way to being a track car with interior. Working on old Renaults on a daily basis has put me off using a sport as a daily though. Out of that list would be the fn2 or z4 for me. I have a 3.0L e85 z4 and...

I’ts for sale, it’s still going strong just had the belts done and a bit of love. Still has lots of history too seems to be a good one lots of its previous owners have kept it good!

try cleaning up the gearbox earth, other than that try get it on to some diagnostics.

I saw this in Rutherglen a few weeks ago just driving along, it was quite out of place on our roads!
