Not necessarily mate mines running a decat and has a rear lambda sensor plugged in and fitted , ran on 98 Ron fuel all the time and in a year and a half never once bought the light up ! If you remove the sensor it will be on no questions! Maybe a coincidence but I've noticed the light only seam...
Yeah mate ! Sounds like the hub is knackered as the threads keep coming loose ! Unlucky but as you say lucky to be okay , wings and possible bumper but all salvageable :) as long as your okay that's all that matters
Ahhhh nice one I was thinking about the top panel moving ! I'm a bit of a perfectionist so might have a play when I get 5 see if i can make something ! I have 3 of the units lol so seams silly sell them all and not using one ! If not ill keep it for my next car but try out it to use :)
haha cheers mate :) it's in amazing condition considering the mileage ! Bonnet and bumper have a few stone chips but still really impressive :)
haha it's not really daunting mate , next car is going to be a Focus ST I think ! I've been looking at E46 M3s but it'll be too much in terms of cost...
Nothing mate like I say don't know if it'll show the code ! I don't know what time PM me your number and ill give you a text !
Theres no problem at all in removing the plugs and that won't be your problem it's quite a common issue and this helps !
Airbags obviously work on resistance and the...
Speak to HMS derv Destroyer ! Last time we spoke he had a few fuel pumps might be able get you one cheap ! Have you tried euro car parts ? I know Renault ones aren't cheap but second hand ones are about !
A write off? So you crashed it ? Or do you mean it's to expensive to repair ? And if that's because you've taken it to Renault ? Try a specialist they can identify what's wrong and repairs things a dam sight cheaper than Renault ! I know because I work at a main dealer and worked in a independent !
It can be reset the only diag kit I have at home is a RS tuner mate but I'm sure that doesn't work on airbags ! Your more than welcome pop down and try it mate , I'm in stoke so not far !
I've managed to get my hands on a Clarion NX501E
This thing is pretty awesome it's got full built in sat nav , radio , iPod connectivity , phone Bluetooth built in etc , looked on Internet and they are a good £500-£700 odd new !
Seams a waste to sell it on as it obviously doesn't fit in my...
All codes are logged so depends on what the light was up for, for example if the code was relating to the wiring under the drivers seat , just rewiring it isnt enough you have to clear the codes as well , but thats assuming the light was on for that reason mate , without reading the codes your...
Well I decided to mint the clio this weekend as the weathers really drawing in and i wanted to get another layer of sealant on ! plus its gives me a chance to take some good photos now the wheels are done !!
Steering wheels a go, taking it up to snappy next Saturday so pics to follow :D
Heres...
Oxyacetylene works a treat ! Well did on mine with 100k up it! Get it glowing in a vice , ( not the sensor just to clairfy don't be stupid warm the cat around the sensor) and as said jab with a hammer !
Never had a issue ! But the gearboxes in these LOVE being slammed into gear ! Oh wait .....
Renaults are not really known for there amazing gearboxes ! Lol just take half a second extra find the right gear ! It's no quicker slamming it in and missing it ! Put it in, get it right first time mate !
Personally If it was my car I'd relive the gearbox and inspect the clutch, if that's okay if then take apart the box and replace the syncro's but that assuming you know what to do if not best left to a specialist , and either way the gearbox needs to be removed !
From what I can gather its crunching in 3rd ? If so it could be a worn clutch disc (friction plate) but its more likely that its the 3rd gear synchromesh inside the gearbox !
Nail and head come to mind ! Lol can't have everything perfect and quite frankly I think it was a pretty damn good day! We turned up at 8ish and had to wait about 15-20 mins ! Over the moon with that lol
Yeah I heard that! It was georgeous ! Oh well can't please them all :)
I think it's very special just seeing one haha ! They are epic up close amazing bit of engineering , proper nice car !
Cheers buddy :) and haha there were quite a few none ford cars lol ! Was suprised how many, there was a few 197-200s on track and the M3 CSL went on! Got a soft spot for M3s haha
