    New years day pics of the RB

    I've got the D3300 and think it's a great camera, especially for the money! Pics and car look great btw :)

    The "Ive taken a pic and I kinda like it" thread

    Thanks, it's an LED floodlight, works really well.

    what wax do people use

    Yeah the Soft99 stuff is really good :)

    Slight misfire, no eml...

    I don't have a link I'm afraid as I bought it about 6 years ago. In fact, the one I have doesn't even have Renault listed in the menu but it finds it through the "Other" option. Another option, if you have an android phone is to download the torque app and use a bluetooth OBD adapter, this can...

    cheap ditch finder tyre review...

    Budget tyres give the feeling of a hire car.... and everyone know's they are the fastest and best handling cars produced ;) To be fair, budgets on a daily that doesn't get pushed should be fine. My go to budget are the Nankangs although not bought a set for any of my cars in years.

    Slight misfire, no eml...

    Get a cheap code reader of ebay, the one I bought has paid for itself about 10 times over on various cars I've had any friend's cars. I would also get the exhaust blow fixed, as although the post-cat lambda doesn't really do much it may well be causing odd readings for the ECU. When was it...

    what wax do people use

    The HD wax is still a decent wax, it's easy to work with and gives a nice deep "wet" appearance. One thing I would do is maybe add a second layer of wax once you've applied the first to give it more durability.

    172 trackday / weekend toy

    A clio 172/ 182 is probably cheaper than a wedding car anyway these days... ;) Problem solved!

    172 trackday / weekend toy

    Yeah, it's transformed the clio - although the lack of sharp plastic bits in comparison to the standard wheel may also have a lot to do with this lol. But it's very chuck-able now, really enjoyed driving it today, although this evening I was trying my best to avoid the gritting lorries who...

    172 trackday / weekend toy

    Yep, thats me :) There are a fair few nice 172's/182's advertised on the facebook cliosport page recently so may be worth having a look through them, some are really cheap IMO.

    UCH and ECU par numbers how important

    Solid red means the it is disarmed. However if it fails to start, check and double check all your earths especially the main one to the gearbox, this must be tight, with a good clean connection. Had a similar issue with mine not starting due to this earth...

    I can't rate it highly enough! Plus it smells awesome... In fact, they also sell the air freshener spray (can also use it for plastic dressing) that smells the same as the wax - very addictive! ;)

    Devon Moors Run

    There's a few of us going on a moors run in a couple of weeks, doing some photos then grabbing some food after if anyone is interested. Just join up to the facebook group and the event details are pinned to the top. Cheers. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1757931594494609/

    what wax do people use

    WaxAddict currently have their Edition18 wax on half price offer, £25 instead of £50. I use the one up from that, Vitreo which is an awesome wax IMO. Have tried numerous others, Autoglym HD, AutoFinesse waxes, Poor Boys etc and have worked detailing cars for over 10 years. I would recommend a...

    172 trackday / weekend toy

    Thanks guys :) 280 is small but I've had one on a previous car and you get used to it pretty quickly, plus it was a bargain so I couldn't really say no lol.

    172 trackday / weekend toy

    Not too much of an update, however for Christmas I got some headlamp washer blanks so I painted them myself and fitted them over the weekend, along with my private plate. Had a few issues with the car last week, came home from work and it wouldn't start again in the evening. Long story short...

    Nothing fancy just one of my clio but was testing out my new lighting rig tonight and pleased with the outcome...

    Random misfire

    Could be your pre cat lambda... runs fine til it switches from the cold start map

    Steering wheels

    You can always get a spacer / quick release later if you find the wheel is too far away from you, however a 300 or 330mm steering wheel is perfect for the 172/182 and will transform how it feels to drive (small change, big difference and you'll want to drive it even more) :)

    6 warning lights have come on together

    First thing I would check is for any dampness in the area around the UCH. If the drainage is completely blocked, the water has no other route other than through the air vent from the scuttle panel into the firewall / behind the dash where the UCH is positioned. It may also be worth checking all...

    Interior cleaner which one

    Not a problem, I used to run my own detailing company so if you need any more advice or product recommendations just send me a message bud. But interior wise, you really don't need anything special or expensive - just some elbow grease and patience.

    Interior cleaner which one

    Yeah you can use washing powder and warm water... just use 1 scoop of powder per 2 litres of water you use I'd say.

    Interior cleaner which one

    Fairy cloths? The thing to remember is you don't need to soak the seats just get them damp - the brush or cloths you use to scrub the seats are what will do the work, the dampness just acts as a sort of lubricant, albeit with cleaner to help penetrate any dirt obviously :)

    Interior cleaner which one

    If you have a wet vac, it'll suck up most of the dampness but removing the seats is always the best way albeit a little time consuming but worth it, as you also get better lighting than if they're left inside. If you get the seats damp and don't have a vacuum capable of sucking up water, then...

    Interior cleaner which one

    You got any pictures of the interior? And what equipment do you have? Household wet vac, or just a standard vacuum? Get some cheap microfibres, a big bowl of steaming water and a few magic sponges (you can use the Flash ones or Autoglym sell their own version as do a few other companies)...
