Common fault with all RenaultSport models matey. Nothing at all to worry about. Just below 1k is healthy.

Meh. I really wouldn't worry. There's nothing much you can do if it decides to go. It's incredibly rare on those engines too. Coffee coloured liquid on the inside of the oil filler cap is a telltale. Also, loss of power.

I was thinking that. Espace perhaps?

Is the recess the same size on a Ph1?

Very nice.

Loves DC5's.

There's also a bit too much play in the disc itself. Doesn't feel too steady. Will be replacing it asap.

The sliders move when the bolts aren't done up tight, but they stiffen up and go solid once the bolts are tightened. Nope. Will do one night this week. Rust was appearing on the disc in a ring around the outside. Where the pad wasn;t touching it.

And that sorted it? Think I'll have it apart at the weekend. I just found it strange that it moves freely until both bolts are done.

I'm currently putting mine back to standard as it was slightly tatty. Looks 100x better, with even £200 spent on it!

Parked up in the car park. Looking good. Slightly lower than standard?

Nope. No need. Wax after pretty much every wash though.

Having a few niggly problems with one of my rear calipers. While both bolts that hold the caliper on are done up tight, the caliper won't slide as it's meant to! It doesn't make a difference which one you loosen, but as soon as you loosen either bolt even half a turn, it slides freely and...

If it's only when revving the engine, I'd assume something to do with the mounts. Whining from rear wheels is almost certainly a wheel bearing.

Ouch. Can prove costly. Stud extractor. If not, either drill it out or new hub time!

Handbrake light from memory? Or am i being an idiot?

Re: Insurance. Fookers! Crazy money! There must be someone out there who'll do it for sub £2k.

Mine are fine!

E30 FTW! £15k for a good one though!

I prefer the M3, looks wise. Every drug-dealer and his pitbull have one now though. M3 is cheaper to buy. More expensive to insure. Vice-versa on the Z3M.. Meh.

Exactly the reasoning I'd thought.

Why though? The M3 is obviously far more recognisable, and sort-after. The Z3M is just as quick though?

I've just bought the 172, and insured it for a (what I would call) reasonable £1100. I wondered what other faster cars would come out at. E46 M3 - £3200. 2001 Z3M- £1450!!!!! Madness!

Re: Insurance. Fookers! Possibly try Elephant.co.uk? They've always been the cheapest for me.

Looks awesome! I'll keep an eye out for you about! My wheels are in at BJV at the minute. I'll send you a pic once they're done if you want to see some more of their work!

Gorgeous. I'd fist it.

I'll swap you my ph1 lights for your ph2! ;)

Doesn't look bad, but it's not an RS one, so plenty about!

Yes. It's called sandpaper. ;)

The brightest, sparkliest silver you can find ftw!
