Yo
So had a genuine exhaust fitted for 4 months. But I'm looking for a bit of noise. Nothing loud at all but something that had some presence without the in car drone.
A backbox that fits on the genuine center section would be a bonus.
What's out there that would fit onto my genuine center...
Well If you look under the car you can actually see the AUX belt, its not hard to think a branch would get up in that space and knock it off its pullys.
I plan to get a Plastic Plate put in that area as i dont think its safe being all exposed like that...
AFAIK you need to send a screenshot of your ECU Firmware to Henk and he will send the correct map. But that's what i did and others may know different.
Take Fuel rail guard off, Get a long flat head screwdriver and stick the end on the metal of an injector. When car is running ofc.
Put ear to handle of said screwdriver and listen. Do the same for each one to see if they all sound the same.
You will get a ticking sound.
Eh they dont?
Thats what Renault gave me for the 172 when i asked for Engine oil and a washer.
And its not leaked once since I refreshed the oil at the end of july.
Just fitted mine after getting them back.
Cars idle is much less lumpy, and engine seems to quieter too, Noticed this much more when on the motorway... cant hear the engine over the wheels noise when before it was louder lol.
Many thanks mate
The Map file wont be correct for your ECU.
You will need to first unlock your Box to work with the car.
Thats you ordering an Unlock code with a VCI code you pull from the RStuner. (you email henk a pic once you have paid the unlock code fee)
He will then supply a code to enter to enable you...
Hi
You just got a second hand Tuner?
In that case you need to apply for an Unlock code from fastchip.nl
Also that Map which is for a 182 Properly wont work on your 172 unless you have a 172 with a 182 ECU (later 172's had this such as my 2004 plate 172)
So yes, Your going to need an unlock...
Cheapest way:
Ebay a virgin key: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1-BUTTON-REMOTE-KEY-FOB-FOR-RENAULT-CLIO-II-2001-2008-KANGOO-2002-2004-/301345858875?
( You want the PCB from inside!)
Take it to Timspons and ask if they will cut the key if they agree its like £10 if they refuse and make you buy a new...
Just read the guide. Looks interesting.
I Suppose I could give it a go on my spoiler first which needs doing. And if it works out I will move onto the bumpers.
Well, He said he cant do it for me. So I'm back to square one.
I need to Spray the Bumper and Spoiler...
Anyone know of anyone decent around the LE10 / CV08 Area who can do it?
