without seeing the box... is it a noisy relay? is it loose and rattling or actually mechanically noisy?

not sure what i'm looking at there mate, but i had a similar noise a while back. it was only the wiring connections that had come away from the switchgear. a simple fix, but not, I fear, what you're experiencing

v.v.v. nice!

all this 35 and 45 notes a month thing has made me decide to go back to PAYG when this contract ends.Haven't been on PAYG for about 5 or 6 yrs. Nevermind 18 month contracts, when the phone's knackered after 9 or 10. Had enough of being ripped off. I'm going with T-Mobile 12p p/minute...

sorry fella, just not to my tastes. each to their own though eh?!

i hope you two are the only owners. makes you both v. 'special'.

Free of charge Sky BB. No complaints, works a treat. Only slightly noticeably slower than my old (upto) 8mbps bulldog connection. No time outs or owt. Why do people pay for internet connections again?

I had a magnex stealth rear box fitted. Sounded great from outside the car, but was deafening at high revs from within the car... Steer clear!!!!!!!!!!

It's a standard exhaust I replaced the whole system myself about a year ago. Never was super refined, was just looking to sort it once and for all. It doesn't seem to be blowing anywhere I can get near. It's in mint condition.

On the 172 there is such a sleeve between the rear silencer and mid section. If this fitted why not do it yourself, bit of exhaust sealant (£3) and bob's your uncle.

I took my door card off the other day and secured all rattly bits, but still the rattle persists as if it is indeed coming from the B pillar. Can you be more specific about fixing this as it's doin my nut in. Mine's more of a dull hollow rattle

Just undone the joins between the rear-to centre and centre to- front sections and packed full of exhaust sealant. Seems a little quieter, but the exhaust still 'put puts' from the rear and sounds a bit metalic near the manifold to cat join. Now I know you can't use sealant on joins before...

feckin hell, that's cheap. my 32 philips was £650 at Xmas...

hope this helps mate: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=138972 A few weeks afterwards all was right. Couldn't even open my bootlid, and the floor was well creased. John

my car had similar damage from me reversing into a telegraph pole at UNDER 5mph (I know I'm thick). Bar the exhaust, the damage was v.similar... Mine was repaired by my own insurers. The only gripe I have is the panel gaps on the boot. Other than that the car's as good as new. Was going to get...

The gasket was 'A ok'. Why replace it? If it fails it's like you say only £5 and would take no time to renew. No problem

get onto 'parkers' for a valuation lad and check it's not an import. imports are worth a little less i think, the 172s are anyway.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Dino was made by Enzo Ferrari, and named after his late son, but never badged as a 'Ferrari'. It was simply a Dino. Off topic like, but I couldn't resist.

turinis are an improvement over the oem wheels. fair enough, in theory should improve handling and grip, with wider tyre and lower unsprung weight etc etc. A sport badges denotes different wheels, suspension, engine, exhaust, wings, bumpers etc... It's a pretence, a fake and the definition...

oh feck

it's class aint it

Bought 4 plugs from 'CES UK' for £35. Took 30 odd mins to replace the plugs. Easy as, like Fred says, X7 10mm bolts. Undid the air intake and a few sensor connections. The manifold was fine too. Bish bash bosh. Thanks Fred. A great help

St. Helens, Tesco carpark today. You know who you are

v.nice and shiny. not a fan of the black strip on the windscreen. i'd not be able to see out if i had one. car looks great tho. 182 black is better than my 172's. d'oh!

step dad got given a "really good one" years back. was rubbish. I'm often tempted by them, but sceptical too. not much help i know, but i'd only buy one a mate recommended or i'd had a chance to use prior to purchase

ha ha, good for you!

Igster, you're not the fella from post #6 are you?

I see you around n-l-w tesco's chris... think i saw you the other day, can't remember where though. we've had this discussion before.

I searched and got no answers. If i'd waited an hour I would've found this thread... In future I'll wait an hour before doing anything. ha
