Does it have a shelf life date on?

£10.55 for postage for a couple of clips 😮. I think they're having a laugh.

When mine was knackered and worn I had to get a 2nd hand replacement. The ball just kept popping out.

What's the shelf life like on the febi coolant?

Just has an email reply from Arnold Clarke this morning. They're going to give me a full refund including return postage.

According to which website. If the item is not as described you shouldn't be charged a return fee. There's a free template letter on the website too.

To be honest, I don't know. I could understand if It was something I was sending back that I'd ordered and was correct, I'd just changed my mind. But they're clearly advertising type D and sending type E. So that's got to be wrong in itself. Like I said. I have emailed them but I'll be...

The thing is with this new coolant. The shelf life is only 3 years. That's if it's left unopened. Once it's in the engine and going through lots of heating and cooling cycles, surely it degrades and the life of the coolant is a lot less? 😮 Not everybody changes their coolant every 2 or 3 years...

I've had exactly the same. I ordered type D and they sent me type E. The delivery charge was £3.99 but to send it back they're charging £4.60 😡 Robbing b******s.

You don't trust the new type E? From what I've read it's the same spec as the type D and can be mixed with type D. Both go down to - 21 It makes you wonder why they're discontinuing the type D and replacing it with type E though?

Fancyplates has no BSAU number on, completely plain plates. No documents required and never had a problem come MOT time.

I used fancyplates. Legal, plain plates. They were £29.00 delivered.

You're probably right. There are better. And they are a slightly older tyre now. But for the price and how they perform on the road I think they're a bargain.

I've been running Avons for a few years now and can't fault them when pushing on in the dry or wet.

The Michelin Exalto PE2s were a brilliant tyre imo. I'd still run them now if they were still available in the right size for my 182. After they were discontinued I ran Rainsport 2s for a while then Rainsport 3s, which were both brilliant in the wet but didn't last long. I'd average about 5k...

These fit. I've got them on my 182. https://www.partsinmotion.co.uk/car-parts/braking/handbrake-cables/borgbeckhandbrakecablebkb3048-detail https://www.partsinmotion.co.uk/car-parts/braking/handbrake-cables/first-line-hand-brake-cable-fkb3049-detail

On a 1*2. Aux belt and pulleys is every 5 years or 36k miles. People automatically assume it's every 3 years with it being 36k and the timing belt being every 5 years and 72k.

AFAIK, they're still available direct from Renault. Or they were last year. My 182 was in the bodyshop last year for a front end repair and he sourced a brand new offside xenon headlight from Renault in France.

I have 2 for my 182 but haven't fitted them yet. I gave them an extra coat of rustoleum, probably a bit of overkill but I know they'll never rust again when I eventually do for them. They're very good quality.

I've never heard of anybody running Bosch fuel injectors. And definitely not a revised part, whatever that might mean? As @hopgop1 said. You want genuine Magneti marelli.

They're £181 including delivery from Autodoc. https://m.autodoc.co.uk/magneti-marelli/1858040

They've definitely shot up price recently.

Arrived this morning from Amazon 😊

The last ones I got were from Renparts, £35 each. Now they're £53.50. Still cheaper than a lot of other places selling them for 70 or 80 quid 😮

I've just ordered 4 genuine Magneti marelli from Amazon. They did have 4 left when I ordered them but they've only 2 left now. 40 quid each. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B0068M8966?ref=ppx_pt2_mob_b_prod_image

Haven't got a clue what you're on about. Care to share the info?

Another vote for @Birchdown from me. It's a 180 mile round trip for me, but well worth it. Andy and Steve are top blokes, they won't BS you or pull your pants down.

Definitely that. If its running on the cold map it'll be over fueling.

I'd say round about £4 - 4.5k but at that price it might be a longer wait. £3.5k for a quicker sale.

First time I've heard that you can do this. From what I've learnt. You need Clip software or something similar to recalibrate when fitting a new ( 2nd hand) sensor. I thought once the SaS was knackered ,that's it.I'm watching with interest. To the OP @Richg78 . They're hard to come by 2nd hand...
