Clean the tps (remember the position of the screws though), mine was filthy and was a bit hesitant, this seemed to sort it out. It may not be this, but it is an easy thing to eliminate. James

I have the same problem on my 16v. Cannot see any areas where air would be getting in and my power steering is very quiet as well. Its not overfilled and I dont seem to lose any fluid. Ive had the car for 4 years and its always done it. No damage so far (fingers crossed!!!) Would like to...

Can somebody please post up the fitting guide for 16v leather please. I was a member, but cannot rejoin at the moment and therefore cannot view the guide. Thanks

Thanks I will try them. Any idea how much they are?

Replaced that. Im starting to wonder if it was faulty.

Yeah, I do have, but no heavier than 6 months ago when I was using less fuel.

Done all that lot. Serviced a couple of weeks ago. Im a bit stuck to what it is.

Would a knackered ISCV cause poor fuel consumption on a valver? If not, any ideas what could? Thanks

There is a plastic bleed screw on the top left of the rad. Undo it and put in coolant into the header tank until it come out of the hole.

Thanks mate, hope it works!! James

I have just fitted a 2nd hand cooling fan to my 16v as the old one was on its way out and it wont work. I have by-passed the temperature sensor in the rad and it still wont come on. I want to eliminate any possible problems with the actual wiring in the car, including the relay, so I want to...

Can anybody recommend a good bodyshop in the South East? Am looking at a full respray, with rear arches being cut out, new ones fitted and undersealed and a bit of smoothing. Thanks James

My valver was knocking quite badly, but when I looked at the mounts, they looked OK from on top. It wasnt until, I removed them from the car, that I could see how knackered they were, all of the rubber on the underneath of the mounts had cracked. Car has been fine since, apart from the pin on...

Definately interested, I have had a new one on for about 6 months and it is already falling apart. Keep us informed. James

Bromley fitted a Powerflow centre section for me. It seemed alright until I hit a pothole ten mins down the road and then it rattled like crazy. I had to take it back the following weekend as they said that they couldnt fix it on that day!!!! James

They are part of the construction of the bumper, the silver/grey strip in the middle of them comes out, but that is it. I suppose you could cut them down, firly flush and then fill them. Somebody did a photoshop on here quite a while ago, if I remember rightly it looked a bit odd. James

Ive got this one, Im quite pleased with it. The MP3 compatability sold it for me, no more need to carry around hundreds of CDs!! James

Sam Steffensson in Sweden used to do the other 2, dont know if they still do. I dont have any contact details for them unfortunately, have a search on the web. James

Yeah, Im gonna do that when I get home. Thanks James

It might have been fairly low, cant really tell, the fuel guage is not very accurate! Ill try giving it some stick on the way home, if I can find a long enough gap in the traffic. James

I filled my car up last night, usual garage, usual grade of fuel. On my way into work this morning, the car was accelerating a bit lumpy (for want of a better word!), it felt as if there was fuel starvation. The car has not done this before and I am thinking that it may be a bit of bad...

My Pioneer headunit display died the other day. i am still using it at the moment, but I will be looking to get a new headunit soon. I would like to get a minidisc headunit, but Pioneer dont do them and I would like to keep my CD autochanger. Can I buy an adaptor so that I can use my...

Mines lowered 35mm all round on Konis and running 205 tyres. It only catches at the front on full lock. James

I got mine from Renault. From what I can remember, they didnt cost much. James

I use surgical spirit and plenty of elbow grease. James

I earthed mine to the boot lock, works fine. James

That is about the same drop as mine on 17s, so will be about 30mm. James

Another plus point with HIC, I just renewed with them and they didnt increase my premium when I declared my 3 points. :o James

No knocking at idle, it was mainly when I was going around corners. The other mounts are fairly easy, the only trouble I had was getting the LH one off, as it was a bit stuff, but a hammer soon sorted that out. I used standard Renault ones, because AFAIK you cannot get hold of uprated ones...
