    Boosting Laptop Speaker Volume

    Laptop speakers are generally under an inch or so. Do you really expect them to fill a room well !? Most sound utterly dreadful on low volumes let alone when they're on the verge of firing themselves through the case ! £20 on ebuyer/amazon should get you some separate speakers which will do...

    Help required to do with boot release!

    I don't think so, once you're in the innards of the tailgate ! Just one T25 (IIRC) in the recess of the trim and the rest pops off...

    Help required to do with boot release!

    Can you get to the trim panel - if so, remove that and then see if you can unlatch it manually.... If you've got that far - grab your multimeter (essential with a French car!!) and see if the latch is getting power or if you can see any reason it wouldn't be unlocking.

    Cliosport SE Dyno Day 13-07-13

    They should be calibrated for ambient temp etc so it shouldn't matter if you're in the Nairobi desert or the top of mount Everest...

    My 200 Gear Box on the way out?

    Absofcukinglutely. Might as well leave it at Tesco and ask the trolley boy to have a look. Probably more qualified. Go find the 'things the dealer said' thread !!!! They'll probably tell you it's not even got a gearbox, it's a shoebox or that the engine needs changing and that'll be £42,000.

    Hood Scoops

    Like some kind of engineering practical joke ? Scoops on scoobs, FTW. Why the fcuk you would want one on your 1.2 Clio I'll never know :S Also, FYI, it'll look like your car, with a scoop on the hood .. just incase you were still wondering.

    The GoPro Thread

    Took two attempts putting this together and I'm still not happy. Music syncs OK on the last half but if I went back to the beginning it'd mess up the end.. soooo... meh. Anyway.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yET6vcKEJq4&hd=1

    Titanium V6's big bro - Merc C63 AMG

    This confused me too - I don't think it is wrapped .. I think it's a mis-understanding ... paintwork looks like paint - not vinyl. Car looks immense however - wheels suit it and 99/100 times I think those type of wheels look full-r****d Halfords budget spec.

    Wall Speakers?

    Have you got £10 or £1500 budget ? Do you need 2, 2.1, 5.1, 7.2 speakers ? Is it a 40ft lounge or a 6ft sq. box ?

    The GoPro Thread

    So the GoPro I bought had a busted case and clip, but that meant I could drill it for power on the go ! As a spare case, it now looks like this: So I trialled an all-day time lapse which turns out, on a warm summers day, is REALLY boring :o 30 sec interval from approx 12:00-21:00hrs...

    Photography Chat and Questions Thread

    Read the stickies in this section, take photos and then post pics up. If you want crit - say so. If you want help with anything, say so. I've never read a page of a 'how to' book. Everybody started from zero experience once and EVERYBODY has still got things to learn. Just use it and...

    Front shock bolts are a pain

    .. or some actual penetrating fluid. Lubricating the outside of the nut won't achieve a lot. PlusGas or Shock/Unlock from Halfords.

    Can you beleive this?

    Yeah the inner lip looks to be quite deep. IIRC the rears as they do almost sh*t all on these things, have a max wear tolerance of something really small i.e.: sub millimeter ?? Someone with some real knowledge will confirm/deny this later I'm sure...

    My 1st Car, IMAGES.

    Smart first car. Good work ! All I would do to that is clean it - polish and protect - welcome to easy washing for a year or so... and buy some decent tyres because I can't even work out what is on there !! Job done. Aside from that, try very very hard not to become a statistic and...

    Paint peeling - Renault won't sort it....

    Yup. It'd be fed into the (awful Americanist titled) 'things gone wrong' process and logged to stop it happening on new car lines too.

    Paint peeling - Renault won't sort it....

    I'm really amazed anyone still buys their cars. Same issues over and over and over from mark to mark.. :S Hopefully that will all stop with the mk4 as anyone who buys one has got to be blind so they won't notice the paintwork falling off anyway.

    Roaming + data... Map app abroad ? [Android]

    Going to be going away with work a few times this year and would like some data roaming. I'm with T-Mob/EE and from what I can work out, when I get there, it'll restrict any internet access before I've paid for extra which is fine .. however, it's about £10 for 50MB which I think would...
