something with a de-cat

k, will prolly giveem a ring to check.

feel the radiator, if it is warm then its a problem with the fan. If the radiator isnt getting warm then there is a problem with the water circulation which is caused by a seized thermostat. (could also be trapped air) HTH

Do you have to tell ur insurance company if u get some chrome number plate surrounds?

Hi all Ive noticed that my clio has different head lights to most of the other mk2 phase 1s about. Heres a pick of mine: http://www.wellbored.com/car/new/frontlightsandsplitter.jpghttp://www.wellbored.com/car/new/frontlightsandsplitter.jpg Most of the ones I have seen dont seem to have the...

is there much difference between the GSD3 and GSD2s???

i dont know much details but id say injectiong, simply because carbs are setup by the twist of a screw (or similar) to adjust how rich the fueling is. Whereas injection is more precise and therefore IMO better.

is that rainham in essex?

anyone know the spark plug gap for these? cant find it anywhere. Thanks

just got back from giving mine a bit of a "run" :) Only had the car since Monday, but am slowly starting to fine tune my driving to the new motor. Its so cool being able to wind it up to !00 before youve reached the end of the slip road. Havent been passed !00 yet as i dont wanna risk it...

yeah, so bareing in mind there was two people in the car when oakley did the timing, its probably faster still ;)

ur not using magnatec are ya?

its quite funny trying to explain to some people that "16v" is the actual model of the car.

there is another one h3lter;). Went to look at one last weekend but the bodywork was cack :sick: mines badged up as a "16v", which is actually quite cool as most people just expect it to be a 1.2 or 1.4. they are a very under rate car IMO

bump! i got the same prob on mine, a couple of the metal clips have pulled through the rubber so it looks sh*te

by the way is the rev limiter 6500 on these?

whoops, i only put the 25 sec figure in as a rought guess. Probably not quite that fast, although i will test it eventually :devilish: i honestly cant see it taking more than 30 though. by the way, do the 1.6s have a better suspension set up than the 1.4s? My 16v (weird that 16v is the...

I picked one of these up a few days back and have been very impressed with it so far. I find it hard to believe the 0-60 is really as slow as Renault quote, it seems to be 9 seconds at the slowest. Also, this sounds a lot slower than it really is as you have to change into 3rd at about 58mph...

what a bunch of theiving gits Renault are. Took the key down to a local security and alarms specialist and they told me the key didnt even have a chip in it. 5 mins later they;d put in a new chip and programmed it and its works perfectly. £15, luvvly!!! Surely Renault must of known this...

yeah im really worried the working key is gonna go tits up. sounds like ur key is fked in the same way as mine is. Surely they must be repairable somehow???? any1?????

just been to the dealer and they told me the key was fked. They tried to charge me £35 for just testing it but didnt pay that. They then said it would cost £70 plus another £30 for coding it :confused: I dont see why they cant fix it. It works the alarm and central locking fine, but just...

ok thanks, how much am i looking at?? £60??

is the inner trim the seal that goes round the inside of the sun roof? does it just clip in place??? TIA

i havent driven a VTR, but this thing certainly goes some. 0-60 isnt amazing but 3rd, 4th and 5th just keep going. Love it :D still getting used to driving it at the mo, so il try and do some 0-60 runs or get to a 1/4 mile strip over the summer. Theyre so nice to drive, especially with the...

1999 mk2 phase 1 the roof/edge of sunroof on the passenger side is rattling like nuts

How do u get to the bolts on a leccy sun roof? havent had a go yet but the only thing that looks like it comes off is the inner trim.

Hi all I think i need one of my keys recoded. It works the alarm and stuff however it wont start the car. It just turns over to no avail. Does anyone know how to fix this? do i need to go to renault to get it recoded? TIA
