Mine sounds exactly like this. I wonder why :)

Hi George, By no means am i a detailer, just a weekend driveway jobsworth but I do like a nice shiny car. I don't have any machinery to do mine, I do it all by hand and a garden hosepipe. I rinse mine with cold water from the hose on the "shower" setting to loosen up any dirt/grit then give it...

Jesus... Are we talking 182 here?

Springs will not quieten the exhaust, that's just being hopeful. I bet its not sitting right somewhere. The backbox goes over the top of the rear beam so its always going to be close to it. £800+ for a standard exhaust?

Cheers. So do I take one out at a time (leaving 3 in) and see if it improves, or do i need to get a good spare one to swap with the one in taking out. I don't have any fault codes. Cars on 56k, not sure on the coilpack/leads etc. Throttle body os clean as a whistle, plugs are clean. I do get a...

Does yours judder you in your seat on idle?

You can do a backup of your currect ecu and revert back to it if you don't get on with the 98ron map.

Idle is all over the place. The rev counter needle doesn't pick up on the drop and increase of revs bit i can feel it. Its almost to the point where it feels like it should stall but never does. Its done it since I've owned it but I thought it was normal having read the idle is rough on these...

@massivewangers did you sort this? Mine is doing the same thing on idle. Car visibly see the car juddering when at lights etc.

Mine used to idle high and then drop, I was convinced it was mapped but I got the 98ron map anyway and notices a difference straight away. Can you rev past 7k?

In fact. Yours isn't mapped, I just checked the calibration code compared to mine before I mapped it and they are the same. Have you definatley spoken to Henk? Seems strange he doesn't know if its mapped or not.

That hasn't got rstuner on it I don't think. I had that UDIE thing before I used the rstuner map. If Henk doesn't know, then who does?

I'm sure there newer tuners actually state "RS TUNER" in one of the fields. It did on mine. I bought mine brand new though so depends if you have an older one. 1100rpm cold, 950-1000rpm warm. Rev limit will go up to 7.5k when warm. If you email Henk with the info he needs, he will send you a new...

http://www.cliosport.net/threads/engine-mounts-help-knocking.349543/ Having a go at this.

Yeah I know that, you man private. I need me some axle stands, that's what I'm getting next. Sick of lying on gravel...

Hmm will have a check of what I can see. Such an annoying clunk. Bootlid vibrates like a dildo aswell, need to sort that.

What am I looking for to be loose on the top mounts? Everything seems tight from the top.

Cheers lads. @ADS1982 I havnt noticed a difference to be honest. I had to have it sleeved as I had to cut the mid section off to fit the new one as it was all 1 straighthrough system before. I would of rather it bolted on so I can swap and change a decat but I had to make the best of what I had.

Was advised the knocking was a top mount aswell.. They are ktec solid mounts, were on when I purchased the car. Worth a shot at changing them?

Update: So, has been a while since I've changed anything but this month I have finally got round to changing the exhaust. @imprezaworks kindly donated me his old cat back system that he had on his track Monaco (thankyou kindly) although we did have a few issues getting it to me. Turns out , if...

Mine vibrates a lot. I think my lambda sensor has shat itself though as the eml has just come on as well.

Flashed your lights at me. Fancied a bum?

Yeah, i guess so. Ive had 3/4 plates on mine for a while and had no issues. I just stick my original plate over the front for mots.

Ive just had mine done, had it sleeved and welded to the cat. No more blowing and sounds 100x better.

You have to be very unlucky to be pulled for plates without the little numbers on. I have seen people drive round with plates with no numbers in at all. Some even with random words/names on with no relevance to the car.

http://www.cliosport.net/pages/discounts/ Edit: I see what you mean now.

I get the same Dan. Can you feel the knock under your feet aswell? Ive checked every bush, joint, you name it. Am going to check the calipers next but I don't understand why I would feel it under the car?

I was referring to the amount of times you have told people not to try it there selves as it ends in failure, but they don't take your advise. I was being sarcastic but you have now ruined the moment.

@Smokey Wilson how did you get on with doing your own? (@DannyR may have been right after all.... For once?? ;)

Just doesn't make sense to have it done on a car that's worth probably £500-800 on top of the work done. Even then, your not guaranteed a perfectly timed engine. Have mick or Dan do it for less and have peace of mind. No brainer to me.
