    I've heard a couple of bad things about tdf from people who don't want to slate them publicly on the forum. I would prefer Viezu as we know where it is and can compare figures. I personally won't be running as I've done nothing to it since last time.

    Scottish CSS & FCS Thread

    Worse thing is that Mark (Mr. FCS) is from Scotland (or at least is Scottish through birthright. Surely he would have thought more about the Scottish contingent with regards to location. I just wonder though if people didn't turn up...would they consider a location change for next year?

    Will it take an LPG conversion? Might make it a bit easier on the pocket over time. :)

    182 silver?

    Iceburg would have a blue tint to it in the light. Also, each colour whilst the same number has several different shades/variations, so someone could have damaged the rear bumper and swapped it for another titanium which was a shade slightly different to the normal colour.

    4 or 5 seat?

    There isn't a roof mounting point...not a 3rd seat on the bench for it to be doable. I spouse anything is possible, but as the read bench isn't split fold, you would struggle to have a 3rd seatbelt for all 3 points.

    Dangers of driving with faulty Alternator?

    When my alternator died...I'd bought a new battery a couple of days earlier...so it still had a charge. Went to work 8 miles away with no lights, no blowers, no autowipers, no anything. Died on way there... Pissed me right off. Get it done asap as guarantee that when u need it, it will fail

    Scottish CSS & FCS Thread

    Its the banter with the lads that makes the day IMHO...not FCS itself. There are some freebies, but I wouldn't say it was the best. Much prefer CSS as you can put faces to forum names and see people you've not seen in a while. I didn't go to the last one at Bruntingthorpe but attended the ones...

    Outside door handle removal

    Yes. Remove the inside door trim, and the there are 2 bolts to be undone. The connecting clip comes away, so make sure you suss out how it goes back in, or it will fall to the inside and then you will have to spend a while sussing out how to connect it between the door locking mechanism and the...

    French Car Show 2013

    That was why I said it and with Mark being a Scot, I'm sure he wouldn't forget his fellow Scots. I am lucky as its only an hour or two usually away from where I am. But wouldn't want to do that a9 at silly o'clock in the morning...as went to Kinloss a few years ago.

    182 Alarm / Central Locking .... What does the beep mean?

    If its three times...it means you've turned the ultrasonics off. It is normally done by turning key to position 2 then back to 0 then to 2 and to zero again and getting out and locking straight after. It means that the alarm is activated if a door is opened...just not if a window is smashed and...

    Surely though, it can't be too far South as the Scots don't want to travel the whole length of England to get to a location near the South Coast...

    Locking wheel nut turinis

    Your locking nuts...does it fit over the bolt or inside? Is the pattern on the locking nut go to the outside edge of the nut or inside? If the locking bit goes inside, then there shouldnt be an issue.

    Bloody hell mate. I am on lookout for new job. Had enough of current employer and want/need out. In terms of garage...have you tried any local council (or housing trust) garages? They will do what they need and are lockable...and hopefully reasonably local to you. If you need any help...you...

    New air filter. Panel or?

    Fred will tell you the standard one is perfectly fine. There is also k&n filters out there too. All cotton filters will need cleaning every so often (they suggest 50k miles) but its best to keep on top of them IMO.

    Renault Speedline Turini centre caps.

    The Cups Turinis are 16"s also. The centre cap is a different size on the Speedlines (smaller than Renault emblemed ones). Someone has done a bodge to get them in...but I don't think they (speedline) don't do any for their own wheels.

    Best way to remove siezed disc retaining bolt.

    Rob...use heat from welding torch. Mandy had wheel bolt snap in the thread...wouldn't come out until local garage persuaded it out with oxyacetaline torch. Wd40 won't do it very well it if its been stuck in there for ages...takes ages to penetrate.

    Painting with rattle cans

    Are you matching the inferno colour to the door paint or the side strips? As the side strips are different to the door colour.

    powder coating

    It is normally a set price for 'standard' colours...anthracite would be classed as a normal colour...unless they think that they can make more money from anthracite...so are charging an extra tenner a wheel...

    Connecting rod between drivers handle and locking mechanism...how does it go in?

    Door locking solenoid was playing up...so took door card off to get to it. Then tried to take door locking mechanism away to allow me to clean it up and better connecting rod fell out. Unsure how to put it back in and have tried a few ways but fucked if I can figure it out....HELP!!! Lock now...
