The screen ‘stage light’ issue is honoured out of warranty. My 2016 got changed at 4 years old free of charge with a new battery and keyboard. Its a well known fault. https://support.apple.com/en-gb/13-inch-macbook-pro-display-backlight-service

After 162k my oe windscreen chipped going down the M1 the other day. Ideally I’d like to keep the original glass. I just feel like it’s better than aftermarket, may be wrong. (And I don’t have to pay the excess if it’s repaired 🙃) Anyone who’s had similar or is in the trade, repair or replace?

Springs don’t really go low enough, if you find some 60mm ish then your dampers stop working properly. Get some coilovers mate

Wouldn’t worry too much about brand. They will both be pretty average. As long as they are both the right shape I’d personally lean towards Lucas. @George@RTR_Parts could help you find the right ones.

Is a 55 plate 1.3 petrol Yaris cat worth anything? I’ve got one (whole car) to fix up and punt on. Pretty sure it’s original exhaust so would it be worth selling the cat and fitting an eBay job?

Mine does that too. I’ve no idea why, was made much louder when I fitted a cone filter. Mick at Diamond said he was scratching his head at it too. 🤣 It’s done it for years, my 12 plate is on 159,000 miles now so I wouldn’t worry about it at all.

Lovely mate, and congrats on the new house!

It’s very impressive! If you ever question whether you have too many tools, just think of John 😂

I like the look of that Clarke kit. All nice quality.

It’s not a big one, 50L 3hp 14 cfm job. My thinking is I’m not going to be constantly using the tools, just for a few seconds at a time so hopefully it can keep up. I’m not bothered about it kicking in all the time. All the above are now on the list though. Probably not bother with a paint gun...

Just picked up a compressor, so now I need some air tools. What do people use? I've had a look at the Clarke pro stuff and SGS. Not really sure what's worth spending on. I want a ratchet and impact first I think. Not sure whether to just buy a kit.

Wow I wasn’t sure whether to say something but glad I did now! Great result getting it sorted and the cost covered.

Epic car. Ultimate do it all machine! Is there something untoward here? Or just angles.

As far as I’m aware, if you were to remove that current spoiler, your boot lid would have a cut out below it. So you’d have to leave in situ and extend or swap your boot lid. (<£100 at scrappies)

https://www.machinemart.co.uk/p/clarke-ctj1800a-1-8-tonne-aluminium-racing-tro/ Post what you own. I’ve had this about 4 years and it’s still going strong. Changed the rubber cup once. Goes very low and also pretty high. I’ve also lifted a transit with it. And light weight.

Up to an 18 but I’d say 17 will sit better. 100x4 pdc and 60.1 centre bore.

Yes. It’s an adjustable cup on the spring and separate damper. You could get cheaper spacers but it’s not something to cheap out on. http://www.apcoilovers.com/

Look at AP Coilovers, more than you want to spend but the lowering springs don't go very low on the mk3 Spacers just any with 100 x 4 PCD and 60.1 bore centre. Hubcentric ones ideally.

Mine is disintegrating badly, radiator is still held solid. 2012 car and the only rust on it really. Seems they are made of cheese. I’ll change it when it gets worse. £70ish on eBay but seems they rust for fun.

Their shop isn't working for me. From memory they were about £500 Found another site, not 100% these will fit your car though, just an example. https://www.ap-sportsuspensions.com/shop/RENAULT_CLIO_III__BR0_1__CR0_1__01_2005-_BR0_1__CR0_1_1.2_Petrol_43KW_1149ccm_AvO3cdVkeDbPnBy1yiZ1QA../8/Coilovers

Here’s mine on APs. Could go lower if you wanted to but I found this height spot on.

How far have you driven? Are you sure it’s not just a bit of rust on the brakes?

I’ve had the Touch Bar 4 years now and it’s still not that intuitive. I’d probably prefer keys again but I couldn’t do without Touch ID

Old games look much better on older low res TVs.

As above, sounds like the coil pack.

Non sport yes

This colour doesn’t get dirty but here’s slightly sh**e pic of the best I’ve managed. Rain has probably washed it off now.

I’ve a few decent ones but my dad has this sealey one and prefer using that. It’s just always really easy to get it mounted wherever you need when working in tight spaces and plenty bright enough. It’s on my long list

Hi Martin. I’ve been doing some digging. The brand is actually ‘light’ which makes google very difficult. I went with the universal set above and it’s working perfect. Great find, these are about £30 from what I could see. Not bad for £7!

Found this stuck to the top of the subframe whilst under a transit yesterday. It has charge and I was really impressed with it! I need to find a charger for it. I assume it’s 5v usb but is there a ‘standard’ sized barrel connector? Would this work from Amazon? Pic with lightening connector for...
