Is your boot carpet wet ? The bump stop bungs will leak and fill the spare wheel well over time. As you haven't got a wheel well it could be coming forward... Even if that's not wet - Open the bootlid and you'll see two 20mm circular bungs. Take them out (carefully pinch from inside) and...

Wonder if @gally could help..

Does it clear when the A/C is on !?

Download your account breakdown off your online banking into excel. Split out how much goes on fixed bills .. fuel.. food shopping and then see where the rest goes. Simple.

I'd be amazed if you could tell the difference between the Renault and the Thule ones by attaching them to the roof. They're going to fit in the same place. I've used Thule for years. Clean the paintwork where it sits on and then fit & forget. If you're really bothered, put a bit of 3M...

Absolutely. HPF/LPF cuts the low stuff to the door speakers. 10cm paper cones in the wobbly door really don't a good job at moving the air effectively. I had stock fronts and a cheap sub in the boot of my Clio - I'm more than your average audiophile and I couldn't fault it :up:

First of the losers IIRC.

So to clarify... Parts and labour is £560 Or.. parts are £560, labour is extra ? Remember kids, grammar is important. #JackingOffYourUncle

I have winter wheels - have done for years - but they have proper winter tyres on. Changing wheels for the sake of keeping your other ones clean seems a bit tedious... It's a road car, not a priceless DB5.

Good grief man don't take it to bloody Renault !!! It is probably a wheel bearing or a tyre. Could be box issues. Swap wheels from left to right and see if it goes. While you're doing that.. check for wobbles when the wheel's off the ground which could be a bearing going.

North Weald in the snow/fog/tropical heatwave ?

Ah, Fridays. Add up the cost of buying all those parts. Then work out how much it will cost to fit them at a garage. Then call an insurance company and ask them how much they want to charge you. Then go to Autotrader and see what you can buy for half of that figure which I'm guessing by now...

Welcome to the S club. :up:

You've checked one small wire, so it's not a wiring issue ?? Have you checked the big earth strap that always goes, from the gearbox to the chassis ?

What about an Eonon (?) android type of unit... or is the IP a stupid shape so it won't work/ they don't make one ? Is it a nice white, or flat/boring.. some of the pearly ones like Ford's non-flat white is wonderful !

Looking forward to the for sale thread already David :up:

Ah sorry.. misread..... As above tho it should not be a fail unless there were other issues too..?!

It won't fail an MOT as you found out.. so why are you messing about with it ? Get it read at some point in the future and see what the actual issue is. Where are you based ? Someone local will have Clip or even a cheap code reader.

Same.. on my Impreza and my yellow Clio (car came with the IIRC). Garbage !

Velcro..... :laughing:

You've been a busy boy, Steven. Mrs not putting out any more ? :kissingheart: Bit of a shame - but assume it's reversible...?

Great post. Good luck !!

Why would you order a key that you think will not fit ? Hammer a chisel into the centre of it, then use mole-grips or something to get some leverage to loosen it...?! if in doubt - warm it up first.. maybe ?

OnePlus 5 is wonderful.. depends on budget. I have a year old OnePlus2 you can have for £100...

^ This. HTH. (sorry)

You can get tools at halfords or screwfix that will do the job.. or call a local tyre fitters and see if they'll do it. Get rid of them and just use normal bolts instead for this exact reason.. No one is going to steal your wheels !

Nice !! What engine is in these ? 2.0 T ?! I love the stealthy look of it .. like a mini version of mine. I want to change the grille badge out for a 'quattro' one. There's nothing on the bootlid or wings :wink:

Who let you in !

Is that with you driving it at 60mph for 15 miles or the wife driving on the way to work ? It could be anything.. Just a s**t heavy car with an underpowered engine. The 197s are awful on fuel. Shocking driving.. maybe she drives everywhere at 5000rpm or just drives really inefficiently...
