fuc*king people that do this kind of thing to peoples cars should be peeled and dipped in salt! WAN*ERS!! hope you get it sorted mate.

the acoustic valve is on there to cut down the induction noise i think you will find that most people take them off! its behind the passenger side wheel arch liner.

ive been busy pricing up all the parts fred and i think i have a really good deal from tom at west renault for it all what do you think labour would be if i supplied all genuine parts if i decided to come up to you to get it done do you think she will be ok to drive that far? im 20 miles the...

ok i have come to the point where i am needing quotes for doing this work so if any of you specialists fancy quoting then go for it! i will be wanting a full cam/aux belt change along with the dephaser and water pump (ive got a brand new genuine one). plus im looking at getting the clutch done...

unless you go for a silenced one so it dosent drone on the motorway;)

i think you will find that the standard airbox and panel filter set up is the best for performance mate but the viper sounds the bolloc*s dosent it!! lol

yes it was done at the 5 yr point rather than the mileage before i bought it. ive had it for 18 mths now and it hasnt missed a beat until now. is it still ok to drive it? this noise only started a few days ago and there is no drop off in performance (yet) im only poodling about in it since the...

thanks fred i was starting to think that was maybe what it was but because the car has only done 48000 i was dismissing it as a option! it does get a bit louder when its warmed up properly so that lends itself to the dephaser aswell dosent it?

hi mick ive just tried the vids and they seem to be ok now mate have a listen if you get the chance mate as your on the short list for sorting it out!! lol

yes its defo the alternator side i just wondered if anyone had heard the noise before and could guide me in the right direction.

hi if anyone could take the time to watch or more importantly listen to the few videos i have taken of my car i would be most grateful. my 182 has developed a couple of quite worrying noises and i dont know if 1) they are the same fault with the noise just changing as the engine warms up a...

i can only say as i find mate and henk is a complete diamond for people that are properly interested in his products. i have asked him loads of questions about different things and he has always come back to me with a solution or a suggestion and when i had my custom map done by him he was...

all you need is the standard rs tuner firmware 1.85 or higher mate. once you have got your hands on one then you then download the software from henks website and that then stays on your laptop ready for each time you want to use the rs tuner. you then plug the cable that comes with the tuner...

hi i just thought i would add my 2 pence worth to this thread! i had a system made by longlife about a year ago and all i can say is it has been fantastic all the way thru! it fits perfectly,sounds really good and the workmanship and welding is faultless. it does make you wonder when you...

done that fred and its as tight as a ducks a** do you think i need a new hub?

undo the top nut that you can see under the bonnet. it will still be tight tho!! i would just remove it all together mate its only 2 more bolts (ok maybe a bit more than that but still worth it to get it right)

i will do that now cheers fred

im ebay at the moment trying to buy one :o looks like the place will settle for £55 posted do you think that sounds about right or am i about to pay too much for it?:S

shi* i didnt think of that! lol my car is just a standard sport not a cup in sight!

hi can anybody tell me if a 2003 172 front hub will fit a 2004 182 please i think i need one as my passenger side brakes are scrapeing and i get quite a bit of road noise from that side when i go around roundabouts:S the discs and pads were new 3k miles ago and the drivers side is fine...

im going to buy the 6 cans anyway so if anyone reads this at a later date then pm me if interested!!

the 182 exhaust trims dont stick on mate!! they have a series of clips around the back edge of them and they locate into small holes that are in the 182 bumper shouldnt be too much of a job tho but they aint cheap to buy!!

good call mate!! ha ha

it would take 2 of you to do a bonnet mate 1 to hold the vinyl up while the other smooths it down with a flat edge start from the middle and work your way out to the edges without heat on it the vinyl is very forgiveing and you can relift it loads of times and press it back on it stays...

i saw a Matt black BMW yesterday with the bonnet wrapped and it looked boss! it was sunny and when the light caught it it looked really cool. I'm partial to a bit of 3m Ni doc myself! ha ha http://s1179.photobucket.com/albums/x388/chrispowell2/...

i get my stuff from http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/150x120cm-Genuine-3M-Di-Noc-Carbon-Fibre-Vinyl-Sheet-/330403842545?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4ced9a89f1 if you contact them they can do you any size you want but it can only ever be 120 cm wide as thats the width of the roll...

the wheel diamonds come off the same as the rear diamond they have 4 heat welds on them just gently cut the weld and they will tap out mate.

i did a cup spoiler that was quite hard! flat surfaces are quite easy really if tou get someone to hold the sheet of vinyl up off the surface whist you smooth it down 3m ni doc is is the best vinyl but ive heard of another one called "oracal" thats lets you push the air out without having to...

cover it in 3m ni doc carbon vinyl!! much better than a rattle can finish mate and its still black!!

just one quick tip DONT HEAT IT TOO MUCH;) when it cools down it shrinks back and goes a bit hard(can be re heated tho):D
