Sounds like a heat shield is rattling. But it would be more of a tinny noise rather than ringing.

Mine are crap - I have taken the wipers off and cleaned them with fairy liquid and il also done the screen with AG glass polish to hopefully sort it.

AG expensive whats wrong with lukewarm-warm water lol

Nah i didnt mean for me just for people that have just joined and dont know etc.. Yeah there is a guide on clio trophy

Im sure you gain top end though removing 5k onwards is quicker even my friend commented at the time. I think there should be a sticky for the AV im sure there must be enough documentation on it on here.

K-tecs exhaust will give you 7bhp if your old exhaust has got a potato stuck on the end Panel filter + exhaust is say 5bhp tops (plus a bit more driveability) on a 182 not sure about the 172

Does anyone know if ESP stabilises the rear wheels aswell or is it just the drive wheels? Didnt seem to do much earlier when back end wetn out and didnt see it light up on the dash so im thinking probably not. Any input appreciated matt

I dont think you could tell a difference between cheap dot4 or the premium stuff. I havnt done a comparison myself but looking at specs i had a choice between comma and castrol and the extra cost didnt justify the tiny benefit. Although im sure others will disagree 5.1 only really worth it on...

For road use id personally stick to stock pads maybe greenstuff (whichever i could get hold of cheaper at the time) with braided lines and some fresh fluid. if your going track look into new discs too but like i said road use no point.

Take the headlight out in the day then youl have uber power ;) Not so good at night though

Has - Think the guys probably got it sorted now 2 yrs later lool!!

Something not right there but i suppose the most important bit about this is just so you can compare the before and after. Just so you can proove remapping a NA not modded engine is a waste of time. But the diagnostics part of the kit is worth the money im still quite interested in it myself

What discs have you got? Im assuming you mean front pads rather than rear??

New tyres on a 197 already someone being a bit naughty lol :evil:

If the lights flashing on the dash when the ignitions on it means the key isnt syncing with the immobiliser. Is the starter turning and not firing or is sweet fa happening?

Well if they have been bled and are still hitting the back maybe the master cylinder is on its way out. While ur your sorting all this i would have stuck some braided hoses on (best brake mod you can do in my opinion)

Take out the fuse for the alarm - there was a guide somewhere or disable the interior sensors. turn ignition on and off quickly twice and then lock should hear 3 or 4 beeps

Any of you actually had to make claims with them though. Thats where iv heard there not very good at (i suppose most IC are though)

I thought the handling in the 197 was pretty spot on anyway, how come the fronts are so difficult to fit then fred?

It will make it noisier as you are effectively removing a siliencer from the system. Hows throttle responce??

Personal preference - I prefer cotton myself due to the fact its not as greesy and i think it flows better. Not much in it though really.

Wouldnt of thought much, maybe ever so slightly better. The main benefit on the 182 is it stops the exhaust rusting as the cat produces alot of moisture and the exhaust isnt built very well. dont really know on a 1.4 sorry

I would use a strong soloution of dish wash detergent, throughly rinse, dry and re-oil jobs a gooden :)

Might be able to hammer it out?? i dont really know probably wouldnt look very good though.

No disrespect to ktec but there cheaper on ebay

Well obviously i wouldnt be as good as you but i have sprayed small things bumpers wheels etc with no problem i just maybe took a bit longer than a pro :rasp: practise makes perfect

Its all about patience spraying if you ask me, its a very easy thing to do take your time use your head and youl be fine.

Sounds like a door sensor is faulty check them all and see which one doesnt bring the light up on the dashboard

See people like this upset me Obviously you wash it off afterwards you moron!!

I think cotton are better than foam (personal opinion) So id prefer that over an ITG
