Great stuff, yes that is fine. I'll wash it down with the hosepipe its been outside a while and looks a little marked but all intact and since it needs priming and painting it should be spot on. Let me know when your due and i'll have it ready.

Hello, I'm not new but my last post was 9 years ago (feels longer than that though). I just joined back up to offer a 172 / 182 front bumper for free to collection (it is unpainted, so would need primer and painting etc). Seems I cant post this in the car parts thread though. Anyone want to...

Thanks for the info guys, will check the manifold to cat. Sorry didnt realize an app was needed for the download. Some new info tho, was checking the engine today for air leaks as now when coasting the revs bounce between 1k and 2k, and noticed the plenum gasket is not present! No idea when...

Hi, My car seems a little ill. Please take a listen tell me where I should begin to troubleshoot, in the clip I get upto speed (around 40 mph) and a whizing type noise starts (I coast and you can hear it much better). The sound dies down when the speed decreases. Also I rev the engine to...

I have something similar, a noise (almost sounds electric) from around 40+ MPH, changes tone when pressing the clutch, any advice?

Hi, can't believe I have been a member for so long thought I would have moved on from the Clio but I guess it's that fun I haven't needed too. Anyway to my problem I hear a deep but quiet throaty sound from the engine when the car goes around 2K (either accelerating or decelerating) in various...

Hi people, My servo pipe melted (long story), I have added a section of diy pipe to drive around in the short term but I would feel much better and more at peace if I replace the entire pipe, is this an easy job? The melted end was the plenum/engine end but after the engine it goes off behind...

Sounds like me (), go along that route daily to Tinsley :)

A guy few doors from me had his bumper stolen in Southey green, thanks for the warning I'll keep an extra eye out.

I'll keep em peeled fella! may spot you closer to home now then :)

Yep! your 2 mins away when your at home and I never see you, yet spot you 70 miles or so away :rasp:

Could have been me! I was in London for work and I saw a blue 182 overtake me in the middle lane on the way home (CS sticker in the centre rear window?). I had no idea it was you boosh! I was taking it steady after getting stuck on the M25 for 3 hours lol.

I love my RS, I have been looking for an upgrade but I struggle... I see my little car and think of the upgradges I can afford and its not many for the £ vs fun! I seen Focus ph1 RS, and mazda3mps and s2000s's but are they really a worthy upgrade for say 5k.

Its a Children in need air freshener (pudsey), yea that sounds like it :)

I don't normally post spotted sports but this one had a sticker so should be a member. A blue 182 with a passenger. Car looked very clean btw.

Thanks nth, lovely car, shame some of those links are dead but I see he is still an active user.

Hi, Does anyone have pictures of these 2 cars side by side, I had a set a while ago (I think they were mates) but its long gone now and I'm hoping someone still has them. Thanks.

(Bit of an old bump). My drivers side Xenon does this too, I will check the sensor tomorrow but wouldnt the passanger side also be adjusting and making a noise at the same time? It also does it while the lights are off.

I liked the black on yellow combo, didnt like the traffic I was stuck in!

Yep, thats it! I think i'll remove it too, its stupidly close to the belt and way too loose for my liking.

The square block im meaning isnt shown in that pic (its the area where I have draw, but its deeper inside). I will get a pic of my actual car if it makes identifying it easier.

Toady I was fitting a new battery and checking my bulbs etc, and noticed an item rattleing around my engine bay near to the aux belt. Its quite heavy and only seems attached by a bolt with is loose. Its a heavy black square thing that dosnt seem to be serving any purpose except a bolt through...

I take my hat off to you, it was the battery :) Thanks.

Thanks for your reply Nick, wouldn't I have seen some signs that my battery was dying (its about 2 years old and always tends to start first time).

Hi, I went to my car yesterday morning and unlocked the doors as normal using the key fob, got it and tried to turn the engine on, but it didnt fire up (no mechanical noise at all, only a clicking from the needles as they bounced on the bottom). I then noticed my time had reset to 00:00 and...

Really sad how people get so excited by what must have been 1 second of footage. Hate to see how you react if it was on screen longer.

Sure thing Luke, hope you have a good experiance on your placement fella.

For uni? You wont see mine as much if my house purchase goes through :rasp: Well I may be even closer to you so maybe see it even more!

Saw you as I was going into Morrisons from the city centre direction, surprised I dont see you more often tbh being just down the road.

I have never had a letter, my car is an import which I guess shouldnt matter? YU02JWK is my reg. I'll give em a ring, do they just simply spray WD40 on it or something?
