£10k, that seems pretty cheap doesn't it? Doesn't it have practically every option...
Hi guys,
Been on here a couple of months now but don't actually know any of you guys!
Do you have meets around here at all or is it just meet then then wizz off somewhere like FCS?
Cheers

Basically my OS inner driveshaft boot has the smallest split in it, and its throwing grease about, not too much at the moment but I want a new one for it.
I have an account it Euro Car Parts, and its normally a very good discount, but are Q-Drive as a brand alright? As thats all they sell...
I know this car has been written off but does it have the right headlights?

Is there really only 500 R27's ever made?
Okay, when my insurance is due my details follow, 21, 4 years NCB, had my 172 for 3months, about 10k a year.
Admiral is the cheapest i've found at £700 with £500 excess.
Anyone know of any that aren't on comparison websites they've used and are cheap?
Cheers
Hi guys,
Found my air con isn't working, its been re-gassed so its not that! My mate plugged in his diagnostics kit and found the sensor above is reading -64c.
What I wanted to do is find it and check its resistance, and see if its mega high! Which i'm hoping it is, as that seems to be a easy...

Hi, sunday I went about changing my brake hoses, broke a nipple and got a second had caliper off a guy from here. Fitted it, bled the brakes with 'Gunson Eezibleed' always kept fluid topped up.
Anyways, I can get a pedal easily when the vehicle is off, but as soon as I start the car, pedal...
I really fancy painting them, they are red at the moment but they are standard! So I'm thinking black...if they were 6pot bembros then they would be line green, but I can't afford them yet :(
Anyone got any pics of some coloured Calipers that look good on a blue 172?
Cheers
San
Is this true on my ph2 172? I know on some cars you have to have the engine running to get the ABS pump running? As like i say, i bought some brakes hoses so the fluid will be draining out, and I bought some Super Blue to replace the whole lot, hopefully they will feel alot better, just in time...
I love this, but is it me or does it seem a little expensive?

I have seen some guys have done a good job at polishing the manifold on their cars, and i want to have a go, i'm guessing after a good rub down you need a good metal polish...this any good?

When you really treat your car what do you do?
Im new to all this stuff, I thought autoglym was the only polish till the other day :)

Does anyone know of any cheap laptops?
It will literally be used for emails and internet browsing, a SD card slot would be ideal but not necessary.
Been looking at Toshiba and Acer but no brand is jumping out as they all seem to be the same to me!
Cheers

Whats the best way, I know a few people are going to say screws, but I want to use sticky tape. I want to buy the smaller plate from fancyplates but I don't want it to fall off :)
Any good ones people have found?
Of eBay or shops?
I love cleaning cars, but im afraid i am part of the autoglym crew...just using SRP and then EGP, which is boring, ive seen alot about clay bars. So i want to have ago,

I took my car to a local Renault specialist today for the cambelt, they've started stripping it down and noticed the water pump is weeping and the bearings are f**ked.
I told them that there was a wurring noise as if it was a idler bearing as i've been reading on here that the water pumps are...
I just had my air con re-gased as it thought that was the problem but it turns out its not,
he plugged in his diagnostics machine and it found 2 faults, the internal temp sensor was reading -67c which was the code ; DF007 and another one was DF118 which i couldnt see what it was.
is this...
I bought a LED bulb of ebay thinking it was the right one...but guess what, it isnt :(
The one i ordered was a festoon bulb...but i just have a standard bulb 12v 5w.
Anyone know of any decent ones of this type?
Thanks
dan

I just phoned up Renault for a price, and as she was checking through the details of the ar against the chassis number and she said it was Metal Blue?
Is that a colour, i thought i bought a Monaco blue car...
