    Fitted a new steering wheel now my ESP is stuck off?

    could it have done a single revolution before putting the wheel back on?! that usually causes havok in the ECU, but usually trips the ABS

    You know what it is!

    russ, not quite sure what you mean by refresh?! engine was out for inspection and to replace anything that i wasnt happy with!! cost my £120 at renault as the decanter seal was leaking which is £70! :( (either that or its the rocker cover which is potentially even worse!!) thanks for the...

    Rocker cover leak?

    No, its not an easy job to replace to rocker gasket! its very hard! it shouldnt necessarily been done with the cambelt, but to change it now, you will need to have all the cam locking tools, so effectively back to a specialist!! :(

    inlet gasket question

    does this gasket have to be replaced each time? i thought the metal ones can be reused!

    insult lol

    as much as i agree that he has to try and make a living, but offering effectively 2k for a RB182 as a "favour" is a bit too far! lol

    Decat nightmare!!!

    sounds like the lambda has given up! and it may be the faulty lambda combined with the very rich cold map that the clios run that cause the problems (hence why its fine after a few mintes). if its not the lambda then you have no choice but to plug it into fault readers!

    Added some blue footwell neons today

    I did this when i was 18, thought it looked the muts nuts at the time, taste has kinda changed somewhat since then though. still looks pretty smart though, try not to over do it on the blue lights, subtlety ftw!

    Mk1 clio 1.2 to rsi/ williams conversion?

    it depends what track youll be running! 1.2 shafts will fit into a JC5 or JB3 gearbox, but theyre hollow so may not be strong enough. mechanically most of the renault engines are interchangable, its just the wiring that may cause issues. however if you with to run the wider track, youll obvs...
