    I wouldn't say "Heavy" bent but I can see people getting their s**t pushed in for them in the streets

    The Apple Watch Thread

    Which part of my original post didn't you agree with? I can see both sides 'for' and 'against' the new device range but right now, for me at least, £350 is too much for a device which essentially piggybacks off the iPhone already in my pocket and merely acts as a lazy wrist mounted extension to...

    The Apple Watch Thread

    At the minute but we'll all have one someday... comply citizen of Europe. It's not for me either but even I can see points for and against them. It needs to be cheaper for me to splash out for one now though.

    High Idle.... Unless I brake?

    Air leak is the most likely cause... possibly a FUBAR'd servo/servo pipe. Easy enough to check for though Mick

    Can Not Get Shock Absorber Back In - Fitted New Spring - HELP

    As above, you pillock, you need the front end completely off the ground to save the ARB from pushing the side you're working on up.

    red light of death!

    Have you checked the relays are working/being controlled? CAN Network testing okay?

    I think it needs more boost! Brilliant car, such a giggle to be in.

    Arno Samimi - Gallery Renault Sport Spider N°0409

    I would love a standard Spider but not at £20-25k. This has had some really nice work done but the exterior style isn't to my taste.

    172 cup braking issue

    I assume you've checked that the brake discs & pads are in perfect condition and that each calliper is working correctly. Has it been on a brake tester yet to measure the actual braking forces? Dead travel seems to suggest that you maybe have air in the system, the pads may be low or that the...

    Rear half cage from ebay

    I don't "do" welding I'm afraid chap... Because being honest, I can't! I can paint it, install it and get it welded in for you but I'd have to price it up and it wouldn't be a drive in and wait job

    ABS Wiring fault - how to fix?

    Hard to say for sure i'm afraid as I don't know what's wrong with it but i'd say no more than 2hrs labour, so £80+VAT If you wanted to book in though, drop me a line via our website and i'll get you in fella - www.diamondmotors.co.uk Mick

    172 high idle, tapping & misfire.

    So have you done anything to it?

    Rear half cage from ebay

    Agreed, they're not CDS tubing but we ran similar spec cages in junior grass track when I was much much younger and having put a Mini nose to boot with one I can confirm they will do the job. You need to be sure that spreader plates are used though. The standard crash structure is pretty decent...

    172 high idle, tapping & misfire.

    For one, it seems to have a minor misfire! Secondly, between the car being fine and this occurring, have you done anything to it?

    Trackday only trolley jack

    Any cheap jack will do you but the Costco unit gets such good reviews because of its lift capacity, aluminum construction to make it lightweight and most importantly, its low access capability. The cheaper jacks tend to be quite high and struggle to get under some cars on Eibachs.

    Serv light and abs light still on after fitting resistors

    If they've been done on Clip Ash then you either have the overall configuration wrong OR there has been a knock which has triggered one of the many lines to fire. Mick

    ABS Wiring fault - how to fix?

    The "Sensor" and the "Target" aren't the same thing Dan. You've switched targets but this may not be the fault. You really need to scope the channel for that wheel and look at the waveform it generates as a DMM will be no good unless it can graph the numerical output or you are some kind of...

    Fixed Filthy Clio

    In that case, bring me your 6 and i'll run her for you. In exchange you can run my 172 Cup... far cheaper to run lol

    Fixed Filthy Clio

    But an M3 doesn't get you noticed like this does I bet. I guess it depends on what you want though... It is yours after all hehehe

    ABS Wiring fault - how to fix?

    Possibly a sensor fault thenBut check the target first.

    ABS Wiring fault - how to fix?

    Oh and the ABS module takes all four speed signals and create an average which it outputs to the INSTRUMENTS via the ECU.

    ABS Wiring fault - how to fix?

    Ideally you need to graph the wheel speed sensor signals to spot errors as numerical values change so fast you struggle to see fluctuations (unless they're cometely fekked). If one wheel has an obvious fault then start by counting the teeth on the target to make sure they're the same, paying...

    Rough running / no power help!!!

    A flashing MIL is what we call a Level 2 fault which means it has potential to damage the CAT. Normally due to an injector(s) but can also be caused by poor ignition due to faulty lead(s). Your best bet is to take the car to somewhere armed with CLIP. From here they can run a proper misfire...

    Coilover height for track

    Remember that BC springs are factory pre-loaded so you don't adjust ride height by altering the compression on the spring with the upper collars, this changes the spring rate on each corner. Set the lower collars so they're just taking the springs and then use the bottom collar near the hub to...

    Renault timing belt kits - updated again!

    Knowing Renault, there will have been a significant cost saving somewhere.

    Correct, that's the "new" old style rear idler pulley, not the tensioner

    Catostrophic Misfire fault - Solutions please

    I'd want to see the live data/misfire detection analysis to. Sounds ignition based though.

    SERV & TCS & ABS Light

    Bingo! Brake pedal switch is not faulty but it is incorrectly setup. There's such ha finesse to doing it and it's frustrating but thankfully we now have a completely different system on the newer vehicles so it's not an issue anymore. To be honest, it was only ever an issue on the last of the...
