Hey
Yup indeed i am a first class fool.
Replaced the Shocks and springs, Put wheels back, Loosly put bolts on.
Before i could do them all up my wife calls me into house and then she rushes about to go home (we at her parents).
I forgot entirely that i hadnt actually done up the wheel bolts...
Dan's Is perfect in my eyes, Just right amount of height. I have prolines on mine, which are ever so slightly higher, But when i get in they drop down a tad :P
found this:

Caster: 3.06 3.19

Does anyone have Renault's Specs for how the GEO should be set up on the MK2 172?
Looks like Kwik Fit used the Standard Set up specs so i need to take it back and ask them to change it to the sports spec.
(Along with checking the camber on the front once i have fixed it :/ )
Any links or...
Hey
I fitted some cup front shocks and front eibach pro springs today. Took car for a drive and I'm getting lots of knocking from drivers side.
I have put them back the same way as I took the out, springs are seated correctly and nuts done up tight on all parts.
can't feel any plan in...
Hey
I have noticed whilst i drive there is an odd vibration on the steering wheel, Now i put that down to an oldish car on crap roads.
BUT, Today i drove with the radio off for what ever reason and it made my other sences more alert to things going on.
Now to the point... I could feel what i...
not too much, Have a look on ebay :)
EDIT:
these? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RENAULT-CLIO-172-182-SPORT-TIE-ROD-TRACK-ROD-END-INNER-OUTER-/300604386861?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Model%3AClio%7CCars+Type%3A2.0+16V+Sport&hash=item45fd6aee2d
I need to know which ones too, as i...
Its around £38 each for rear shocks.
its around £40 each for front shocks.
Springs you can get second hand on ebay (Eibach Pro) for approx £100.
Its SOO easy to do yourself too, Can prob do all 4 in a few hours? Make sure you spray some WD40 onto the bolts the day before though to help.
Its...
Just got home, Too dark now to take car inlet off :(
Might do it lunch time tomorrow at work, takes all of 30 mins anyway.
Why would loose plugs cause tapping? Im sure its simple to explain i just cant see why lol
I thought i did those up quite tight to be fair.
I will check them after work today :)
On a side note, The old plugs (2 of 4) had oil on them and a dark gunk around the washer on the plugs.
Hey
Engine makes a subtle tapping sound, Increases when engine speed increases.
Drive along side a wall with the window open and you can hear it, Otherwise you can only hear it when standing outside the car when its idling.
Now.. Its always done this since i got it, but its slightly more...
Sorry to ask in here, But you said you originally had a tappet problem. Im a noob when it comes to engines, what the tappet and does it make a subtle tapping noise when its starting to go?
My engine has a tapping you can hear which increases when you rev, has been like that since i had the...
