    Starting problem Clio RS 197

    @Frederic no it doesn't, the Crank Sensor is the foundation signal for the ECU and the Cam Sensor is a supplemental signal from which the ECU can ascertain the position or "phase" of the camshaft relative to the piston position.

    Parking sensors stopped working

    Oh it's a driveway job and only basic tools *should* be required. As I said earlier, the aftermarket systems are very basic which makes them simple to install but a pain when they go wrong.

    Parking sensors stopped working

    Oh I agree, PDC is actually a very useful system in any size car but the problem you have here is that aftermarket PDC's tend to be pretty s**t when they go wrong in many ways. They are : Nigh on impossible to diagnose There are limited, accurate system schematics Spare parts are impossible to...

    So these are an aftermarket option then?

    What car is this on, just out of curiosity?

    toyosport 197 fitment issues

    At the minute, the KTR unit is looking like the best alternative to the Renault unit, which is double the price and still nigh on impossible to source. The only other alternative is to replace broken flexible sections on your existing manifold. What ever you do though, replace the worn engine...

    Windows offends me... I hate having to use it on our CLIP machine. I just prefer OSX in just about every aspect.

    Awww, why you got a be so pissy, I'm just kidding - relax! This one still makes me piss though:

    Aux Belt noise?

    It should be okay but never say never. I've just finished rebuilding a head for a 182 which bent valves after the water pump shat itself, allowing the aux belt in to the timing case

    I'm not sure, probably though

    My personal/business use for PS is creating images/graphics for our website and LR I use for our photos both in work and at home. I'm finding that AutoCAD isn't used that much anymore as I don't do that much engineering these days, I don't think i'll be renewing my subscription next August. I...

    toyosport 197 fitment issues

    I'd just sack it off chap, they're utter shite! Next thing is you'll replace the mounts (at around £200 in parts) and then 12-18 months down the line the shitty Toyo will have broken somewhere (Normally at the slip ring joint to the Post-CAT) or it'll knock its tits off and drive you insane to...

    Aux Belt noise?

    100% concur - that's the water pump.

    Do you still get people look at you funny when using it? The lady in Greggs still thinks i'm some kind of Wizzard

    iPad Pro

    It's just the £900 for an iPad with Pen and keyboard that puts me off as I know it'll mainly end up being used for p**n/browsing internetz, FaceTiming @Jaff. and completing the VAT returns. My late 2013 13" MBP is due an upgrade in the new year and i'm swaying toward the big boy 15" MBP but I'm...

    Thought it was £20 increasing to £30 at the end of Nov? It needs to hurry up and be something sensible like £250... maybe just let people get on with it and say £1000

    iPad Pro

    So the 12.9" iPad Pro has gone in to the store today for £679.00 - £899.00 but does anyone actually want/need it? Lets go one further, has anyone here actually pre-ordered one? http://www.apple.com/uk/shop/buy-ipad/ipad-pro It looks great, even though HUGE and that screen is mint but whilst...

    Apple Pay

    I use it when ever I can (look for any card terminal with a flashing/steady green light in the top left corner... or signs in the windows) but i've never tried it via my Watch yet, that just seems a little "Apple wanker" to me. I believe they banks are raising the transaction limit shortly to £30.

    Timing belt query in NI

    I wouldn't be able to travel I'm afraid due to all the crap I'd need to bring. As Dan said, would be cheaper to have the car shipped to us

    Clio rev 2000rpm constant - no throttle response

    It's a common issue now on those Marelli ECU's I'm afraid.

    Its gone down a treat at home yes, me and the kids love it but no NowTV App (yet). Apparently Sky haven't had the App approved yet and this seems to be causing a bit of a stir on the NTV forums where people are asking for money back (LoL). It isn't important to us as YouTube and Hopster but as a...

    Clio rev 2000rpm constant - no throttle response

    Just replace the short ignition loom with a brand new one... that'll set you back around £170. If that doesn't cure it, the ECU will most likely need sending away to be refurbished.

    I mentioned Plex was coming in post 24... I have never been so excited about an app before. Plex Pro-Pass is £31.99 a year... bargain!

    Exactly that, I don't have a Smart TV. This gives me YouTube and some other child friendly bits in the living room. I also love that SiRi can search for items across multiple streaming service providers and display them on a single screen for me to choose. I can also use AirPlay from any of our...

    That's why I have everything sent to work. Well, that and because I don't want the wife to find out exactly how much money I waste on car parts and Apple products lolz

    This is kind of good news for ATV4 though: Plex http://9to5mac.com/2015/09/12/popular-media-streaming-client-plex-is-coming-to-the-new-apple-tv/

    I've got a few mates who have asked if there's likely to be an Amazon app for it. I'll take a look later and let you know - If there is, it would be awesome but I can't see it due to the competition between ATV and AF hardware.

    That'll be where some nice person in the past has probed the wire and didn't cover it up... Orible bastids! Glad it is sorted though
