see if you can spot the new modification? i know... i might not pass my mot. but i think i will and it only takes half an hour to get back to normal. i was sick of leaking valves and trying really hard for them not to spray on my (when it was clean), so annoying when its clean and...

found a photo that i took around two years ago of the clio, i fancied cleaning the car up a bit and going to take a few pics of it in the same location as the photo 2 years ago. this is the old photo and this is how it looks today. just as tidy imo :approve: and a few...

took my car over to jabbasport this morning to fix a leaking cv boot, and there was a group rr session going on. a few mk2 golfs and a mustang gt500. my friend luke at jabba said he would stick mine on the rollers for free after the other guys had their's on. so... i was expecting mid 170's...

noticed a leak coming from here is it know as the inner cv boot? its got a bit of oil/grease around it. does it need attention? anything need replacing etc?

thought i would give a battery cover a go, it has two uses... looks, and stop heat getting into the induction area. bought an offcut of a white bath pannel home from work, half an hour later... taaaaadaaaaaa :) oh, and for finishing touches ;) its a pretty sturdy setup too...

had my wheels off today and noticed the cv boot had a fair bit of grease around it. looks like its leaked out. the cv boot has not split but the ring on the large end has come away from the rubber part. what should i do? also while i had it jacked up the rear shock looked a little suspect. it...

i finished work today with enough time and light to give the car a bit of a clean. it has been neglected a bit lately and its cost me a bloody fortune. in the last 2 months my rear discs cracked and the aux belt tensioner snapped. but since then its had an mot and a decent service. also since my...

i have fecently had a full cambelt kit and aux belt kit changed on my 182, but i am noticing more vibration coming through the clutch pedal since having it done. is this normal? you can feel it more on a cold start. but i noticed the first time i drove the car after the belt changes that there...

looked in my engine bay yesterday and i noticed a loose bolt. its hard to explain where it is so i have circled it. here is a closer pic you can see that the bolt is completely hanging out of where it should thread into. im not sure what that bolt does but i don't like the fact that...

well... im in a bit of a pickle. apex or prolines? i love the way the prolines ride but i love the way the apex look. i dont want to damage my shocks by running apex, i can put up with it being a fairly bumpy ride. and i don't really mind avoiding speedbumps. the apex look fantastic and they...

how do you remove the coloured plastic casing on the wing mirrors? is it easy enough? and how do you replace the glass in them? cheers

as everyone knows... disconnect the air feed pipe from the airbox (the one behind the headlight) and you get a nice induction sound :) is this safe to do? cant see it being too much of a problem. will more debris get to the filter?
