Does it lose more when driven hard? I'd there a build up of pressure in the expansion bottle?

Look for the coolant residue. This will give it away. Mine leaks a tad from the thermostat housing hose join. I need to to drain it and clean any crap off to fix. Yours I reckon will be something similar

Bend the flanges back. It's only crimped tight because of the clamp that will have been on the sleeve

This^^^^

Where did you get the gaskets from mate? I wouldn't mind a set of these[emoji3]

Fitted my racing flex poly Bush dog bone bushes. Surprisingly easy. The only difficult part was getting the dog bone back in as the poly Bush is a tight fit at the back. Now to let it bed in. On idle it's fine on gentle acceleration it feels like the car is going to shake apart!

Yes safe enough to put on paint. when your sick of it It will just peel off as long as you put it on thick enough

Used the eBay stuff before. You need to make sure you build up the layers. It's a b**ch to get off of its too thin

A little bit of support for the Fatty kit. I know it's not a clio before anyone says https://www.youtube.com/embed/xwNtjKT_1cA

A 172 will easily return 40mpg on a run. Ok so the Clio is not the most refined or quietest place to be. Having said that I had a brand new astra gtr as a rental for a bit and the noise level on that was on par if not louder than my 13 year old Clio. Stopping kidding yourself you just want...

So you're going to save £120 a month but are going to have to spend at least £165 a month on renting a car not including fuel. I really don't see the sense in this

Good on you mate for trying something different. Not a fan of the bullets but you win some you lose some. At the end of the day it's all down to trial and error

@jamesycc once you have your base colour and its dry. Spray it with water. Then using one or two other colours spray the item from right down do that got just dusting the top level. Keep the rattle can parralel to the item you painting so your just supplying a light mist. Do it from one side...

Ok so I have a couple of little updates fatty kit fitted. Initially I had an annoying resonance but that was sorted by cutting the pipe down. The one if bought was 5cm longer. Pipe too long! Note right length. So being bored I decided to have a play with paint affects and water on my...

Sell the stainless and buy a standard one. Our see if some one will swap

The vid is there and can be viewed on your pc just not tapatalk. Still try again to day lads apologies

here you go fella's, excuse my driving, you can here the resonance

Cheers mate much appreciated[emoji4]

Horn is in the way and I'm not convinced you would get a 70mm pipe down through the gap where the cold feed attaches to the acoustic valve

Cheers for the offer mate. I'll get the vid uploaded first and let you guys hear. I didn't think it would take so long to up load 899mb. It's only 6 mins of vid for good sake[emoji35]

Already but a pics off piping on there. So no noise. Yet filter is fine where it is. It's a right fit. It's touching the battery and the fuse box cover. I'm trying to get photobucket to upload one off my dash cam. It's taking for ever. It might just be one of those things. I have to admit...

Had it a part cut my pipe down to the right length and its still making a high pitched resonating sound when you just touch the throttle. The only thing I can think is that as the pipe is aluminium it's making it have a high pitch resonating whistle when the throttle is just touched. Certainly...

No not yet just loosened it all and tried moving it about. It's v tight in there I'm using the bigger filter and with the pipe being longer I'm thinking this is my issue. I'll take a part and report back. It does sound impressive at 5k if only I can get rid of this initial resonance it has...

Yep tried this still makes no difference . Still got this awful metallic resonating. The feed for the acoustic valve is all blocked off as well.

Well fitted mine today and I have to honest I'm not impressed. I have a really bad metallic resonating sound which is driving me potty. I've noticed that my aluminium pipe is about 5cm longer than the one on the front page. Surely though the extra length wouldn't make it resonate or would it...

I've bought the racing flex bushes for nine direct for £32 posted from Poland. I'm just awaiting them to turn up. They posted them Monday so should be here soon. They seem to be a sizeable discount to the power flex ones

You will need a aluminium join pipe as your trying to connect silicon and rubber there

Cannot wait to fit my fatty kit this weekend. Only thing stopping me during the week is the removal of the acoustic valve otherwise it would have been on by now

I think so mate. Mine seems pretty dry so as a precaution it's probably worth doing just to be on the safe side
