    Police meeting today, got alot of quotes for services and belts being changed, turns out the dealer who sold me the car has over 140 cars on their forecourt, all "recently serviced" that the police are going to look into. Meanwhile, the garage that sold me the car want to take it back and mend...

    Service warning light!!!

    UniPart have verified the receipt is a total fake, they took a few looks at it and wrote the codes into their system and said its not real, then the registration plate they require when they supply parts was not on their system at all, showing they have never supplied the parts for the car used...

    Trolley Jack? :D

    Think i'm borrowing one off my girlfriends dad, is it okay to use just a cheap jack or do I need axle stands too? Planning to just put the wheels back on to let the brakes dry so they will be off for 30 mins at a time, jack doesn't seem too great quality but it lifted the car okay before. Thanks

    Service warning light!!!

    Okay new issue, service is found to be a forgery receipt from unipart so the service never actually happened! New info needed if anyone can help? :) When does a cambelt and other belts need changing and a rough idea on costs? The service light is on and the last service was at 29,149 miles on...

    Trolley Jack? :D

    Can I be really cheeky and ask if anyone has a trolley jack I could use? Near the Tunbridge Wells area? Want to paint my brakes again and clean out the inside of my wheels and my jack feels a bit weak for my liking! Thanks

    Service warning light!!!

    This morning I got into my Mk3 Clio Extreme to be met with the orange spanner service light solidly lit as I was driving to sixth form. The car was serviced in July before I bought it, its had all new filters, oil change, new cambelt fitted, and the car has only done a couple of thousand miles...

    Clio AUX Cable ?

    Without looking I can only assume but it sounds like a phono socket. You need to buy a phono to 3.5mm headphone cable to fit, such as this...

    Water Inside Doors

    Basically, when I open the drivers door and its been raining before hand since I last parked, water all comes out the holes on the bottom of the door? Not a huge amount of water, id say around 50ml quite quick, enough to make a small puddle. I will try and take a photo when its light again :)...

    Confused at lighter socket!

    With my new knowledge of which fuse it was, and even though I still had to bend the fuse box quite alot to change the fuse, I have changed the fuse! Old one was blown as expected. All works now with my new Griffin adapter, not even going to risk trying the Belkin one again! Sticks out just...

    Confused at lighter socket!

    Okay so pictures as promised! :) I started this afternoon by opening my fusebox, a simple job I thought to replace the fuse, but I was faced with this sight... The fuses are out of line with the door itself? Im assuming the circle shaped one top right and next one down, the 15A one, is the...
