yeah marks car certainly stands out in orange, even more so when its being towed home by my hybrid(the black one ^^^^)
roll on next year, few changes to the car to be done!
looks good, im over at nurburgring from 28th july to 4th august so will keep a eye out for your car, if you see 4 mk1 clios(black with orange cage which is mine, a full orange caged mk1, a grey caged turbo mk1, and a williams 3) thats us!
lol i use to work in a renault dealership untill made redundo a few month ago(was a RTE), and alot of the parts ppl we had were pretty thick tbh!
but on the subject of the 182 and mechanic, i own a 182 and always had the plastic seat covers in mine(free lol) and often ragged mine about so...
lol tbh the red/silver clio looked like it was flying, most ppl wasnt sure what engine it had lol
my mate pissed some white evo driver off in my clio lol think he was annoyed that he was overtaken going into the final siries or bends before the start/finish straight! was also slick shod lol...
yeah cant remember his name but was talking to him, he is a mate of dunc with the esc cossie and focus RS who was there with us
a highly tuned esc cossie wasnt it?
yeah i do remember the yellow porker and think i remember the scooby RA, you see the yellow BMW M3 after it jumped the barriers at the ring? well battered that car!
i was there in my artic blue 182 with my mate is his silver v6(mk2) aswell as a few focus RS's, was great fun!
i was watching...
i remember seeing the red/silver 1.2/172 at the ring(and black sooby abit dented) when i was there in my 182, also saw it at croft in september just after the ring and i was there in the 16v trackcar(blackcar/orange cage), think i recognise the williams too, looks like the one that was at donny...
as jay172 said, the brake light switch is a double contact switch, ive changed a few for causing the ABS/ESP lights to come on and also cruise control playing up, most times they tell the computer that the brakes are applyed when they are not,
when you fit them you are supposed to use a...
is the airbag computer you have spare off this car? the problem with fitting it if it isnt is that the airbag computer is one of the 2 main multiplex computers on clios, and has to be specificly configured to the car otherwise it wont work.
if it is and you do decide to try and fit it, make...
ah i work for evans halshaw(was reg vardys!!)
the airbag computer wont have caused the non-start, i ran a 172 with locked airbag computer after a prang for 2month! ( i fixed it in the end tho, new computer and configured etc)
going off what you said tbh it sounds like all it needed was the...
the clip should be able to talk to the injection computer/airbag computer and all other computers if the airbag computer has locked itself due to impact, that wont stop it doing so, the most likely reason clip wont talk to the injection computer is if they have lost a feed/earth to the inj...
since the lights are on then it will need a computer for that to be sorted, as said on price im not sure tbh, also add labour for it to be fitted/configured etc
but as said that shouldnt effect it starting, what is the symptons of it not starting? does the immobiliser light flash quickly when...
mike means the external temp display on the bit with the clock/radio display!
if thats showing ok, the other thing is has it ever had a aircon service/re-gas etc??
is/was your airbag/serv light on the dash? normally if the airbags have been triggered it leaves a permanent fault in the airbag computer which indicates it needs the computer replacing, this was the same on my mates old 172 which had a side impact and triggered the n/s airbags and required a...
oops that should be 'wasnt playing blocking tactics!' lol
i think the slicks made the real difference mark, i got past the other 2 cars and had just closed the gap when the flag came out! was annoyed lol
i agree northy, running slicks on that track was brilliant, my 16v was flying along as i didnt need the extra power! at the end of our session i went out behind markcup and was following untill a black 182 slowed my progress, once i got past that and another mk1 i was catching him up, then the...
nice vids mark, the WC session is the one i followed you out on but a black 182 got in the way lol, my slicks hadnt warmed up fully and i wanted to have a play with your cup! finally got past the 182 and another mk1 and the chequered flag came out! grrr lol
(black valver on slicks btw)
