    Clio 16v - battery indicator

    Hope its not the alternator mate. Mine went recently but light was on all the time. 80 odd quid for part and 4 hours labout at 120 quid plus VAT. 240 in total as boot had to come off and was a pig to do, like everything on Valver.

    £80 for a 182 oil change

    National Tyres do semi sythetic Duchams and filter for 15 quid and BP fully synthetic Verso or Visco 700 for 25 quid. They may have trouble getting filters for new cars but still worth 25 quid and supplying your own filter. Or do yourself if you dont mind getting your hands dirty (I woouldnt...

    Audio One Nottingham - link

    Wish I had known this ages ago, good ICE places are like good mechanics, hard to find. I had my first install stuffed up at CarFi in Derby and then finishing off was bodged by Bass Junkies in Wolverhampton.

    If not Eagle F1s or Proxes T1s ... what

    When Bridgestone bring out the RE050 in smaller sizes I would suggest trying these. Some places will tell you that tehr eis to be an S04 coming out to replace the not popular S02 but I have been told it is actually just the RE050 that is being brought out as their top tyre in more fitments.

    Cheapest place to buy speedlines

    Members get discount from carnoisseur and I found them to be cheaper than discount from Speedline direct. Although a user on her beat that quote by 25 quid for 4 Turinis in 16" gold. Just waiting for a while before I get them.

    valver question

    Yeah personal taste. I prefer the lights, mirrors, side strips and seats of the Phase 2. Find the phase 2 seats one of the best Ive sat in, and in leather just so nice. It just looks freasher than the Phase 1 IMHO.

    help, please, major dilemma

    Seen on ebay at 2k opening bid with a reserve price an M reg 16v with leather and circa 70k miles with all receipts. Sure you can get a really good valver for less than 3k and you may just about get a willy. Some people go by trade prices which arent as good but then insurance companies will...

    Valver Phase 2 Alloys in White

    Mini wheels in white look cool and they are a tubular design, although with more spokes, similar to teh 16v wheels. Id say go for it.

    BMC CDA on valver

    Have posted several times so probably best doing a search. If you have teh CDA run it backwards with the pipe you get running down back of engine bay and scooped forward. Or get some longer stuff and attach to front of car. To fit it this way battery needs pushing forward a little and...

    What figures would this produce(16v)

    I found it did when I used it but that was nearer 20k ago. Need to do again but fiddly spraying in inlet manifold. Ecotek stuff may also do same job and be easier to apply. Fuel system additives, spark plugs, ht leads, dizzy and rotor, all these little things can result in power restoration...

    What figures would this produce(16v)

    Guess it depends where you get RRd and also what state your engine is in. I get 148bhp from BB chip, Mangnex inc decat and a BMC CDA, RRd at BB. Check dizzy, rotor, HT leads and spark plugs and also worth 10k boost and fuel additives to make sure the engine is running as healthy as it can be.

    FAO - Chipped Valver Owners

    Got a BB chip fitted over a year ago when they were about 250 quid. Had cambelt and water pump changed and wanted it chipped to. Produced 148 bhp with BMC CDA, Magnex inc Decat and chip. So about 11 bhp increase IF car came out of factory at 137 quoted bhp AND if I had not lost any power...

    Valver With Coilovers vs Williams

    Horses for courses. Williams for road holding and comfort, coilovers for lowered stance, great road holding on smooth surface and better cornering speed with bumpier ride on the rough.

    Valver battery light on

    Noticed on the way home very early this morning. Stopped engine and started it again and light would still refuse to go out. Guessing could be alternator on way out as probably same one from new in 96. Anyone else any ideas? [Edited by Matty on 11 May 2004 at 7:44am]

    16v cambelt change

    Last year at BBPT, think about 137 quid plus VAT but water pump needed doing too and got chipped before price went up. Also low temp switch and thermostat fitted, coolant flush, new HT leads so a bit of a service really.

    Ran out of petrol

    Did the same in my valver when the ecotek was switched off and was geeting less miles out of a tank. Ran out 1 mile away from the nearest PS. Took two petrol cans and a hell of a lot of turning over to get started again. Car felt really crap to start with. Changed fuel filter and also put...
