    Just tell them thank you very much and take it to a proper garage for a second opinion on what REALLY needs doing.

    I give in. It needed doing.

    Yeah, until the f*ckin cat sat on the bonnet and put muddy paw prints all over it :mad: Swear he does on purpose, little b@stard.

    It's OK, it's delicately balanced on the plastic air vents and the rubber handle! :D

    North East Meet 25/1/09

    Looks all good. :) Barnard Castle up to Alston/Hartside café and double back up to Hexham then back across the moors to Stanhope is a great route in the area. (about 85m that) Guess it depends how much driving / how much air hockey you wanna do! :clown:

    heater fan question

    Ah right. Not sure then. Someone like edde or Fred will know. PM them if they don't see this. Getting the wipers off can be a right biatch. good luck

    heater fan question

    I would think that's more likely to be a sticking fan motor tbh anyway.

    heater fan question

    Well mine looks like this one: and it's the connection far top right. Is yours different, looks like it may be comapring the two? Does it have A/C?

    heater fan question

    The resistor pack (actually a rheostat) is up to the top right in your picture, though not clearly visible on that pic. If you follow the taped up wires running along the bulkhead you will come to it. Unplug the five-pin connector, short a wire across pins 1 & 5 and the fan will come of full...

    washed my clio today, and orange bits fitted

    Standard details on those wheels would look just right. The orange bits are trying too hard and look cheap for me. Each to their own though.

    I give in. It needed doing.

    Good! :clown: It's only a quick wash to get the thick grime off..... it normally gets shampoo instead of washing-up liquid lol and a wax afterwards if I have time. Afraid I simply never have hours free at the weekend to spend polishing the underside of the exhaust! ;)

    I give in. It needed doing.

    Meanwood mate. LOL. I keep WATER away from it whenever possible. It doesn't get washed, just dusted ;) And it's cheap imported RUSSIAN steel if you don't mind! :rasp:

    I give in. It needed doing.

    Alfa needs a service & MOT come the spring. It tends to dissolve before your eyes in this weather :rolleyes:

    I give in. It needed doing.

    So having put off washing the Clio for weeks, I finally found a spare half an hour to give it a wash. For the detailers amongst us I used: Meguirs microfibre washmit (oh yes) One bucket method, using specially-formulated Polyurethane plastic bucket from Co-op 5ml Asda Spring fresh washing up...

    Heater fan packed up....... Cold!

    I have heat again! :) Bought the offending rheostat yesterday (part no. 7701051272, "Heater Switch" says Renault's invoice :rolleyes:) and swapped it over in about 20mins today. Only difficulty is getting to the 6mm nut on the far side of it without removing the other half of the scuttle and...
