    197 Head and Internals in a 172

    I would imagine it'll make good power either way with those cams and better dephaser, plus that head is far superior to the older X65 castings. It would be interesting to see what it does to the oil pressure side of things to.

    Passenger Airbag Resistor

    IIRC It is 3.2-3.7 KOhms

    alignment setup

    Seems about right to me on a standard vehicle. Remember, some of these cars are so old now with bushes and links that are that worn, you may struggle to achieve these numbers or even be miles away from them.

    Buying a Macbook

    If it's going to be used for proper editing work, buy a MBP15 with dedicated graphics, cracking CPU and max the RAM. It costs more yes but it will be worth it in the long run and you won't have to worry about buying a Thunderbolt Display later down the line. Don't go too silly on the SSD size as...

    172 cup new key

    The official Renault process/equipment will not extract pin code data and works from a VIN based code... Changed your ECU/UCH and don't have the VIN for the doner car, you are buggered. There are bits of kit out there though which can do PIN extraction and you will need to search this out...

    Newbie to RS Clio 172 cup- advice on car

    Andy @ CT isn't VAT registered... I'm 20% more than everyone else because of this. They are very good at what they do though so if he's closer to you, use him. Mick

    I've noticed that to but it doesn't lag if you use Finger ID. Another thing I like is the battery at a glance monitor of all your devices...

    Serv and Esp on after 70mph'ish

    As above, needs CLIP time really Could be a speed signal dropping out/inconsistency or a steering angle issue, etc

    URGENT! CAR COMPRESSION ISSUES

    I agree that I don't trust the gauge. Are you sure it is being screwed in tight as 35psi across all four pots is low. Your readings are however responsive to oil so I'd say it's either a ring seal or timing issue... More likely timing.

    1.8 16v f7p rough idle

    You know these have two coolant temp sensors right? One for the temp gauge and the other to feed the ECU... Are you sure you changed the right one. Easy way to test would be to unplug them and see how it runs.

    1.8 16v f7p rough idle

    Plug it in to diagnostics and... LOL H02, CTS and potentially a faulty speedo cable could all be the causes. Having access to a good scope and some basic diagnostic skills will help prove any of the above as the issues though.

    Mintex M1166 .........thoughts please

    I personally wouldn't use them on the road as a daily pads but as a dedicated track/race pads they're my go to unit. Speaking of which George, I need to order another set soon. Mick

    ABS/ESP/SERV - independent garage diagnostics?

    It is usually due to an incorrectly setup brake pedal switch causing a failure of the two switched circuits failing to "crossover" in synch. The ECU/ABS see's the brake line system pressure rise but doesn't get a signal to confirm the brake pedal is actually being pressed. This causes it to...

    You mean like Google has done to with the current release of Android which has rendered my daughters Nexus 7 as nothing more than a piece of s**t paperweight? She only used it to watch YouTube videos and apparently she can't even do that now without signing in with one of our Google ID's.

    The wife wants the Rose gold because it looks pink... Shame she doesn't want my pink 5" Will probably get her the 16Gb because all she does is browse the web, use FB and take photos/video which will go to the Cloud

    Apple event - 9th September

    Yeah, the wife is in need of an upgrade from her S3 Mini so may get her a 6S or even a 6 if it's just Force Touch and a bit of speed. I don't believe i'l be upgrading from my 6 this time (Famous last words).

    The Apple Watch Thread

    Yeah it did but I got thru the day on 3-4% consumption I find myself constantly being told by people that I've wasted my money though... They look at me funny though when I tell them to f**k off.

    Shuddering in 2nd gear??!

    Sort the linkage as the pivot bush and circlip are just over £5 new and it'll make a World of difference. I think it'll be a box issue though as its only in 2nd

    clutch squeak and jolt

    My Cup does it due to having a crappy LUK RepSet installed and I call her "old creaky" TBH, if it's working then keep whacking it until the wheels fall off.

    Help starting and spluttering problem when cold

    Not scientific though Jordan. Is the sensor working, was it a Bosch unit or a cheap Generic POS from eBay? Have you checked the wiring is present and supplying the correct voltage?

    Interpreting airbag fault codes

    Yeah, they're fine in the hands of people that know what they're doing BUT not everyone has common sense. I also hate the way people just push them in place and give no thought to the metal area they will live in. We had one guy who kept F'n around outside and got a small shock whilst...

    Interpreting airbag fault codes

    I'd advise you slightly differently as I hate resistor mods. Personally, I'd say start with a proper diagnostic and see what can be cleared, which will leave you with a list of what actually needs dealing with. The above list doesn't state which codes are "Present" or which are "Historic" so...
