Small update Mega busy week so Kangoo has sat there doing nothing. Wheels black with brake dust and fallout after last weeks mega b road blast. Sunday comes and i have a free day so time to get a few jobs rattled off. 1st job is to check the brakes out as pedal has developed a bit of travel...

Clip drivers are all 32bit. I couldnt get away with a vm running xp as the usb would not connect properly for some reason so bought a chepa old xp laptop to make life easier. Later versions of clip can run on windows 7 32bit (v170 & up from memory ?) so might be another option

Take it to somebody for a scan on clip, could be anything

Going Friday evening and stopping over in a hotel. On track pm session

Any decent ocal garage will blat it loose for free and nip it up with a spanner to get it off at home. They are a pain in the arse to do without

Ast's look great i need a set of fronts for my Kangoo when money allows. I would keep an eye on the camber adjustable bushes the megane ones they done were terrible and kept moving. I would be tempted to add negative camber on the strut bolts instead.

Bc coilovers finally fitted to the mrs meg 250 to replace the knackered cup shocks and springs. This has fought me every step of the way and i was very close to blowing my top but its finally back on its wheels. Not even driven it yet but looks alright will see ?

If you scan it with clip a fault code will be stored. I personally would just drive it until the light is on all the time then diagnose and fix as it might have just had a hissy fit. Are all tyres the same size ? Rattle gun best for the strut tops ive never managed a clio set with swan neck spanner

Probably just needs the toe setting properly. Check the inner tie rods and track rod ends for play before getting it set up and replace if necessary.

Ill give that a go @182_steve ? ive fitted the dampener and its cured 75% of the rattling so not as bad now but still room for improvement.

Still needs to go. Get a rubber dinghy instead

Sell the boat

Quick blast to Teesside Autodrome for the track night tonight. Did not go on due to the rain but got a noise test whilst there - 4700rpm 102db. Might need to add a silencer lol. Pms shifter was rattling like feck the other day. Fitted dampener onto it and its 75% improved. The weight makes the...

Thats how i done this one to be fair as first attempt in reverse did not work out so well. Ive fitted the dampener on the linkage now but not had chance to test drive. The extra weight makes the shift feel even better, will try it through the week and go from there.

I did initially set it up in reverse then had several attempts at resetting it. Can get all forward gears ok reverse is a little bit difficult. Any tips ? Will better adjustment make a difference as this had crossed my mind.

I have one from when the exhaust was first done, its a bit naughty though haha. I was going to get a drive by over Blakey yesterday but rain put a stop to it.

Ill strip it down and check it out. I can handle a bit of noise but rattling the full rpm range is highly annoying.

Kangoo up and running and pretty much ready to go. Cant wait

Sorry for bumping an old thread but my Pms shifter intermittently rattles like feck. It can rattle on acceleration from low down in 2nd all the way to the limiter and then same again. Dont get me wrong i expected rattles but its savage then sometimes silent ? Same as vids earlier. I have the...

Cheers mate? Every mod or fix has always made a massive improvement on this as it was in such poor shape when bought so always feels like its worth doing the work. Its been quite enjoyable yet expensive to spanner. Got loads planned but just need more ££ ! Was only supposed to be a cheap...

Clubsport look with gear gaitor fitted So get it all back together early afternoon today. I needed to pop to a village a few miles away so take it for a run out. No tools or nothing as i like to live dangerously lol. All goes well and was feeling a blast out so headed over Blakey Ridge and...

Tuesday arrives and alloy plate arrives X marks the spot that needs to be cut Cutting this was not as easy as planned - 20mm is quite thick and grinder was not really touching it so got my mate to chain drill it out. We call his garage BAMS (back alley machine shop) anything goes lol. I would...

Box swap took a bit longer than anticipated ? Got box out fast enough, subframe off. Left steering rack in situ as all the hpas pipes looked like hassle to remove New valeo clutch in - old one was Luk and well worn nearly to the rivets Box back on Jc - 129 fitted to replace the knackered Jc...

It does sound like you will need to start checking wiring. Might be worth scanning with a can clip to see what faults are stored.

Have you knocked the underbonnet fuse box cover next to the battery? If you disturb the small 4 pin relays they do stuff like this. I had the same issue when changing a battery, knocked cover then non start - relay was not fully home.

Yep returnless setup. I wouldnt bother with non return valve as it will prob just fire up then conk out whilst its sorting itself out From reading up about it i believe some maps prime the pump every turn of the key (rstuner ?)

Yep sounds like regulator fault and need to crank to build pressure up when stood, common issue. Fuel pressure reg is fitted in the sender unit. I believe all you can do is buy a new sender and pump complete, have looked for reg on its own but no joy. Mine does it when sat about for a few days.

Might be weak fuel pressure regulator. Click the ign on once and turn off. Click it on again and the the fuel pump will prime, try starting it then and see if it fires straight up.

Do you only have the issue in the morning or does it happen every start ?

Car hoard like me and you wont have a problem like that in the future ?Ive sold a couple of cheap cars in the past, cut up a couple of Renault 11 turbos/gt turbos But they were rotten as pears/crashed so not a massive loss. I used to own a 4x4 saph cossie replica that is still kicking about in...
