Get the alignment checked but they are never the same after a knock.

Why are you swapping things completely unrelated to the fault??? Its either the throttle body, pedal or loom. Going on Clip for some more detailed information wouldn't hurt either.

They're very short stroke due to the revs to keep the dynamic reciprocating mass down so they tend to make less torque than other comparitive engines, which matters slightly less on paper as you still have the revs to make the power. All proper vtec engines are the same.

New headlight for what they cost, too much f**king around changing the loom and connector over.

That explanation is how I understand it, allows different spanning tree topo for different vlans. One link may be forwarding for Vlans 100,101,102 but blocked for 103,104,105 and vise versa. Spread the load.

This is classic PWM control pack failure symptoms but why has it had a new heater and the interior loom refitted?

This. Love the logic (or complete lack of).

No one relay controls all of those functions, there are relay on/around the UCH with provide the high current switching for those functions but the common denomonator is the UCH which controls the switching of them all.

Got it covered ;). Done 46k, original clutch and flywheel.

Same as the Megane 28-30mpg, get around 300-320 miles between fill ups.

Still getting on great with it, so well infact i'm not actually sure I could go back to a 250/265 like i semi planned to do. Driven my Mum's 1.6 Meg 3 and the interior is horrible in comparison, I didn't used to get the whole build quality thing but now i've had it I do. The actual drive is...

I wanted to hate it. But I can't, I love it. Ten minutes was all it took to change my mind.

No, but they can/do rust into the hubs. Sacrifice the old hub nut and they can be pursuaded out.

Take the front end off they come out easily. Nothing special to worry about off the top of my head.

How are you trying to do it? With the gear stack in the box half and drop the bellhousing or the bellhousing half and drop the box half over? Assume you have the correct sealant?

3 MPS?

All 3 of mine did this, bloody irritating as hell. I just used to stick the ac on to dry it out.

Re: Acessing home internet from any internet connection or setting up a home server ? Just subscribe to one of the many UK based VPN providers. If you have to ask, you aren't going to be able to set one up yourself.

You're brave i'll give you that. Nice.

Yes but most of the non RS models don't have them.

Re: Nurburgring trip advise Who do you take your insurance out with Chip?

Easy peasy with the hub spreader. Assuming the R32 is the same as the S3 and runs aluminium hubs be careful as the tool can take chunks out of the hub. Oh and you could've picked up a laser copy for £10 and it'd be here by now.

Yes that'll be fine for checking timing but it's missing the pulley locking tool for changing it. The Renault variants aren't much differently priced either.

That's because it's for a 774 lump from a mk2 rs megane, the sump is different as the bell housing pattern is different. The sealing procedure is the same though, the top picture is a 730/732/736/738 lump as the 774 doesn't run an aux driven water pump. It's just the tightening sequence that's...

Depends how well the cap(s) have been sealed in the first place. I've never know one not leak without it, hell they'll still leak with it. Can take a few thousand miles to show on a road car but it accumulates.

No it isn't, Rhodoseal between the two end mains caps, will be why its leaking from there most likely!

Exterior is all good and well. Interior looks cheap and nasty (same problem with the fiesta too). Liked the Mk2 though.

Not in a million years, they've lost their way imo. But times change and they have to go with them I guess.

The trouble with an engine bay fire on a Vee is access, how they used the extinguishers was useless they need to be put directly onto the fire. Would you risk removing the engine covers and have it blow up in your face? I don't think I would.
