Thanks for replies lads appreciate it Mark

Excellent post cheers mate, I'm not scared of it just wondering why everyone else is and also why the need of 2 cam locking tools which you've answered for me thanks mate

Yes but most people that ask haven't done timing belts before, im all for doing it just wondering why I would need to lock the cams at both ends and why everyone else says it should be done by a specialist?

I'm considering doing my own timing belt on my 182, but read that these are horrible to do and autodata is listing 6hrs, I'm wondering whats hard about them? ive done Vauxhall chains and belts for instance the 1.3 cdti with a floating crank and no timing marks ive done several of them myself. I...

I'll try and get it plugged in within the next few weeks, such a pain to do when it doesnt move though Mark

Hi thanks for quick reply, i checked all the relays fuses but cant seem to find any bad connections,etc, is there any diagrams of what fuse/relay controls in the engine bay? Your probably right about the original problem, more than likely bad earth or starter power lead, thanks mark

Hey guys ever since i got my clio the fog light came on, on the dashbord when i pressed the brakes, this progressed into the indicators lighting up which in turn stopped the indicators working when i put them on and braked, nightmare on round abouts, ive had the lights out and rubbed the...

Hey guys i just got my clutch sorted finally and started it up, it went straight to 3k rpm and wont drop from there at all, its doing my head in i cant find anything wrong with it, it starts first time and drives spot on but doesnt idle any lower than 3k rpm so of course it trys to accelerate by...
