    Climate not very Cold

    Alright guys, Any ideas why my Climate/Air con is not blowing out cold when set to min? it used to be pretty chilly but now it's not. I posted in this thread http://www.cliosport.net/threads/only-hot-air-out-of-heater.308548/page-4 but got no response. It doesn't seem to be that issue anyway...

    Only hot air out of heater!

    Only hot air out of heater!

    Bump! Great, mines just packed up :( I don't fancy doing it either, lining the cogs up is putting me off. I suppose I've done quite well it lasting so long since 2004!

    Climate Control/Heating Won't Turn Off!

    All very odd! The control unit in the car turns on and I can adjust the temp etc however there is no air coming through the vents at all no matter how high I turn it up. I am guessing it's still the resistor that's responsible.

    Climate Control/Heating Won't Turn Off!

    Anyone? Does it sound like it could be the Resistor?? read a few people having issues with that and it's a common fail.

    Climate Control/Heating Won't Turn Off!

    My 182 ff has all of a sudden developed this fault 😞 No matter what I do I can't switch it off unless I take the keys out the ignition! It works ok but as I say it won't turn off. Any ideas people? Ta.

    Mot Fail CV Gaiter insecure

    Thought I'd update this to show what an absolute joke Halfords are. Passed today with my £2.50 hose clip attached! I feel like sending in a complaint though as saying £150 is absolutely scandalous.

    Mot Fail CV Gaiter insecure

    Bump. Proof that Halfrauds deserve that tag and haven't a clue what their talking about. I managed to take a quick look today at it, been raining so couldn't have a go at it properly, he reckons someone has put a tie wrap on it!! Boot looks fine too which makes the £150 laughable! Does...

    Mot Fail CV Gaiter insecure

    Cheers Stu, I am in Altrincham 8 miles from Manchester. I have been doing some serious research into this now and from what I gather Jubilee clips are the way to go. http://www.diy.com/departments/plumbsure-silver-hose-clip-dia90-mm-pack-of-2/178426_BQ.prd Bargain... save myself £148!! I am...

    Mot Fail CV Gaiter insecure

    Thanks lads for the advice, just as I thought proper p!sstake! I used them last year and it passed so thought I'd stay with em... live and learn! I imagine the gaiter itself is ok as they only mentioned it was insecure both on the paperwork and in person. Jubilee or boot clip then will be ok...

    Mot Fail CV Gaiter insecure

    Hi guys. Not happy. Front Nearside CV joint gaiter insecure to the extent it no longer prevents ingress of dirt. Costly job lads then? Halfrauds quoted me £150!! Said it's fixed on with a tie wrap! No idea why - never hsd work done on it but that price seems excessive to me. Any ideas? Could I...

    Screw in Tyre - New Tyre is it?

    It's a 2 and 2's are dearer than the newer 3's I see :S I think I'll buy a new one, would it be worth keeping the punctured one or should I give it to the Garage? winds me up because it's virtually new :mad:

    Screw in Tyre - New Tyre is it?

    Cheers Lads, out of interest bloke how did you repair yours? I will probably order a new one but I've noticed they have increased in price - cheapest seems to be £100 fitted.

    Screw in Tyre - New Tyre is it?

    Alrite lads. I am not a happy chappy. :( I bought some new Rainsports the other month and today I noticed the rear was looking a little flat then I found this. Repairable or not? Would I be able to use the foam tyre repair for a short time till I get it repaired/new tyre Cheers.

    Reasonable Quote? 2 x Front Springs + Suspension mounts and Track rod End.

    I'm tending to go along with this as I don't have a problem as far as I am aware, just a bit narked that I jumped in a bought two because the Mechanic mentioned them! :dapprove:

    Reasonable Quote? 2 x Front Springs + Suspension mounts and Track rod End.

    Will do just that, surprised Birchdown didn't give me a price even if they are booked up but never mind. One thing that's niggling at me is this... will the top/suspension mounts really need replacing when doing the Springs even though the MOT made no mention of them and I don't seem to have an...

    Reasonable Quote? 2 x Front Springs + Suspension mounts and Track rod End.

    Prob give them a ring tomorrow and see what they say. Tracking isn't included and it sounds like now he's really just seeing me as another punter :( If any lads round Manchester fancy doing it as I say give us a shout, cash waiting and free tea and biscuits :D

    Hi Fred, just labour that Pal. I just bought some Sportlines today from Demon Tweeks (lovely place!) and the track rod from Euro car parts with the Mounts coming tomorrow from Reno for circa £246. Over the top then? here's me thinking mates rates :( If anyone fancies doing this for what Fred...

    Alrite fellas, more input needed :D Quoted £100 to fit two front Springs along with new mounts plus track rod end. Mate of a mate is doing it and it's a cash job ;) so he tells me but just wondering if that's a decent price? Car is going in tomorrow once I get the suspension mounts. What...
