Main CSF Media Thread is HERE: https://cliosport.net/threads/the-csf-2023-picture-video-thread.847610/ Just a few camera phone photos and videos I grabbed while walking about!

MOT at 11 yesterday morning, on the road at 12! Cutting it fine!!! 8hr drive down traffic was s**t.

On the 0.9 tce it's usually the coolant thermostat housing that leaks above the gearbox, it runs low on coolant, overheats and blows the head gasket.

are you sure your sensor is faulty/damaged and not just needing calibrated properly when fitting? there is a process to fitting it to make sure its centred properly.

I'm still not convinced on the whole hybrid thing over a diesel, my Mrs has a DCi one in the same spec and colour as that car, she ordered it as soon as we found out the DCi version was being discontinued 3yrs ago. Me and my mate done a 500 miles road trip to pickup a car a few months back in...

At those sort of prices I would be getting myself to Halfords, buying a socket set, watching some YouTube videos and getting stuck in.

Agree mate, every mk3 I've owned has bit me!

I don't get it, who's buying that, for that price? you wouldn't want to drive it to risk putting miles on it, you would need to keep it 30 years to actually see a return on it, at which point your only profit will have been pissed away in gearbox rebuilds, swivel hubs, exhaust manifold flexis...

The 2hr track nights are mint if its dry, I take my wee girl and we have a ball just walking about watching the cars and by the time she gets bored its home time!

yeah 100%, and it could do with being a bit lower but tbh the cheap project has started growing arms and legs so that's all for now, ill revisit at a later date!

Wish my hair was the same colour as it was in the year 2000!!!

its a brave choice! I wasn't sure at first when I seen it, but as the day has gone on they have warmed on me massively!

From memory you just loosen it the tension and tighten it again! Ages since I done one though

Big White connector been checked under the fuse box? This is what was causing my intermittent limp mode issues

the genuine ones come with the rear abs sensor brackets, but from ktec they didn't so I'm not sure if they remove them to sell separate and offset some of the cost at some point! as i had to go and buy a pair!

lots of cheap fun to be had in a non RS, just not worth throwing money at something that isn't the problem.

It won't sound any different with a sports cat, as it's still got a cat to go thru! It will likely then be a nightmare to get thru an MOT It won't be doing a "car clean" what ever that is, it's probably running rich and not doing the cat any favours, hence the eggy smell!

as above that is usually the issue, clean up the connector etc. If the arch liner is broken they usually get filled with water and shite

K-tec were about the cheapest about at the last time I ordered mine for genuine ones (which was surprizing!)

Abs light and stop light were on due to the car not having abs where the donor car did, solved... Clock/radio display hasn't worked since I got it, swapped it from the donor car while I was in there, success! Replaced the bulbs while I was there Fitted the exhaust, fits like s**t, sounds...

Sportex! £170 still as cheap as they were back in the day haha

Remember you need to sit in it for 5hrs to CSF and 5hrs back!

Single din.

wheel off, pull out the 2 plastic bungs holding the arch liner in, undo the (t15/t20?) screw holding the arch liner to the bumper, gives you plenty access to the fog light, its then held in with 2 (again T20? i think) screws, 10 minute job.

FFS :ROFLMAO:

Bring on the old skool parts 😂 Cleaned up the RSI seats, it's a shame one has a massive rocky burn in it!!! I suppose it ads to the character of the car... I was going to keep the original povo spec seats in it but i think the RSI seats might finish it off nicely? thoughts? a...
