How old does the belt look? The car is 6 year old and on 110k. I bought it 3 weeks ago and the previous owner is unsure if they had the belt done during their 3 years of ownership. The "dont think" it was done. It is booked in the garage tomorrow morning for the full service but im interested...

MOT passed first thing this morning on 85811 miles.

Theres a sticky thread in the top of this section of the forum, with all of the info you need mate.

strange question / silly question.... Plastic style wingnut on gearbox, should this be easily removed by hand or should i be using some specific tool to remove it? Car in question is a qashqai, but i imagine the question relates to all cars as I believe they all have this type bolt.

Never seen the colour before but quite like it. How does the deal work? 2k deposit, plus £5040 over the 24 months so a total of £7040. What happens after the 24 months? Do you get any of that cash back or have you simply rented a car for 24 months at a cost of £7040 and then hand Aha?

Could it cause any issues? It seems to be fine and where it has broke away doesnt seem to affect the main part of it. Any idea if i can get that as a replacement or would i need a full new unit? Yes the hose was a bit difficult but went on easier when i attached the top piece first. Why would...

Managed to get the egr valve out as i thought it would be wise to see if it needed a clean. I ended up doing this while trying!! I have put it all back together and tightened it up as the main park kees it all inplace, but will it cause any issues or should it be fine? Just went out and its...

Would also love to lnow how this will come off!? Tried hitting with a hammer to free it off but it wont move

This is whats happened! Just in the middle of doing it now. Or trying to lol... Theres a small pipe part too which was still on the turbo. Any ideas? Like a plastic ring.

Sorry mate, its my dci 65 haha

It was still driving just with not as much power and struggling to build up speed. I pulled off the 70 road onto a 30 to get it home

Hmmm. No idea how to tell tbh.the turbo looks like its covered in oil, but im not sure if its always been like that

Driving at around 70mph and a strange sound, then the car felt atrange. It sounds like a hairdryer when I put my foot down. Its still driving but doesnt have the power. Engine also sounds louder as if theres an aftermarket exhaust on it. Any ideas anyone? Worst part is I was driving home from...

I was going to put 4 PS3's on but spotted a set of standard 182 wheels with all new tyres for a bargain so thought it would make sense to buy them and put them on. I will eventually put PS3's on the turinis at some point and this will give me a chance to give them a good clean up. In reality...

This looks so good, nice work! I keep hinking about doing it to my dci, but there arnt as many flamer 172's being broke so its hard to find the parts. Does the dci run ok without any issues?

I started doing it myself last year on the 1.2 and dci, but the 182 had the belts done so it didnt need servicing again until now. It really is so easy, saves you a load of money but also lets you know your using the best parts / oil. Cheers mate i will do.
