Hi, and welcome. There's a meet this weekend too :) - http://www.facebook.com/events/499936320042640/

This. Credit card at an acute angle, apply lots of pressure to the card and peel the backing off at the same angle as the credit card. No hairdryer required.

This.

Renault for leads and G172 for plugs :)

Has the misfire code changed to a different cylinder?

I think he's already tried changing a full lead, have you swapped a couple of plugs around? Then I'd try another coil pack.

Re: Misfiring + Engine Light (& now noise from engine) Is the o-ring thing at the back underside of the inlet manifold you removed seated correctly?

Goodyear F1 GSD3's are just short of £80 on camskill and you get a tenner back in fuel too, so £70 per tyre. I had them on my first 182, great grip in all conditions and they last for a long time.

Could well need belts if it's high mileage, and a suspension refurb, and a steering wheel. That's about £1k total, + a bit to give it a service and a tidy up and it's turned into a fairly expensive high miler. You need to give them a ring and get the details.

Number 155 - no details on the register though http://www.railwaycars.co.uk/used-cars/renault-clio-2-0-16v-renaultsport-182-trophy-3dr-birmingham-201314508786476

If I had a £10k budget I'd be after an early but well spec 200 or a tidy Ph1 V6. I wouldn't buy a Clio that's had a turbo/itb conversion as it could be a proper money pit, especially if you can't do the work yourself.

Looking good but I'd change the fog surrounds back to black and put standard silver diamond on.

Red is for winners ;) For daily use I'd go silver though.

You'll need head skimmed aswell, which will cost about £100

Little update on the cruise control situation. Last night I decided I didn't want to drill my nice new wheel, so instead decided to design some sort of plate for the buttons to sit in, similar to BIGASH's in his project thread. I drew something quickly, (I won't post it as i'm no technical...

Very sad :(

I'd say the battery is shot. Do you have an apple authorised repair place local? Not an official store, just an authorised little independent. If you take it there, they will likely stick one of their batteries in to see if the problem is resolved for free, and you don't have to que/battle...

Hose reel is essential IMO I have a Karcher and the only issue I have is the hose and power cables have no storage system, so storing it is difficult and messy. The better Nilfisks all have power cable storage and hose reels which I really would find useful.

I'll second this, he did a lovely job on mine last year and cheaper than the other mentioned re-trimmmer.

Sounds like you need a new alternator then. You need to untension the aux belt, remove the old one, new one in, retension belt. Easier said than done ime, I'd get a garage to do it, I'd replace the belt too, maybe even the whole aux kit if it hasn't been done before.

Cheers :) Nothing big, got a sabelt wheel to go on, some ultraleggera's should be on their way to me too sometime next week. To buy are some cooksport springs, trophy recaros and maybe some xenons.

As said, that fault is always there, don't worry about it. You need a lambda sensor though.

If you get a sony stereo (which is remote and cd changer compatible) then this little adapter allows you to keep steering controls and the display too. It's also a lot easier to fit as it utilises the current cabling...

Is it time aswell? Or just 5 years with cambelt?

Welcome to the club. May be worth trying KTEC racing for parts, they would probably ship to anywhere.

If it's like the picture then no, you don't. Just the cups have a non sport wheel.

Ok, thanks for that. I'll pop them out and take them to my uncle as soon as they come as he has a lathe. Saves me spending £60 :)

I don't know yet as they aren't with me, I'll have them Thursday hopefully. I believe OZ changed from 68.1 to 75 at some point so either of them, I'll only know when the wheels arrive and I can measure them.

Ok this is going to sound really pikey but here goes. Can a spigot ring be widened with a lathe? Or are they not suitable as from the pictures I've seen they aren't a flat inner edge. The only reason I ask is I have bought some wheels, which come with proper OZ spigot rings which have an...
