Once the engine has heated up I get a whining noise above about 2k rpm. Its really starting to annoy me now. Ive also had a whistling noise between 1k and 2k rpm for a while now. I was thinking maybe the alternator bearing or water pump bearing?? I'm hoping its not a cambelt tensioner! Whats...

As title didn't get your reg as you shot off as soon as you came onto the motorway!!

Seen you twice now anyone on here?? I did wave and got a nod back!!

Silver 172 with tow bar in Cirencester then 30 seconds later Russ 16v. Anyone know whos the silver 172 is?

As title really am looking to get some alcantara or fake stuff to match whats on the seats. My local retriming place can't get anything that matches it. Was just wondering if anyone knows where I could get some from without spending a small fortune? Thanks

Got my k-Tec Stealth the other day after they had been on order for a while. It looks very well made and came with everything needed for fitting. I fitted it yesterday and the burble on idle is very nice but between 1500rpm and 3000rpm its very very loud inside the car. Then it quietens down...

I found a thread on this yesterday while searching for something else. Unfortunately i didn't save it. Has anyone got a guide on how to remove the bottom part of the drivers seat cover so I can replace the foam on the bolster? Thanks

Saw you quickly around 7.00 heading towards Bishops Waltham - Anyone on here??

You were there about 12.30 ish took a picture of the car but I can't really be bothered to post it up!! Looked in good condition though, very nice. Anyone on here??

Sorry to start another thread but i need some straight answers!!! Both of the above are looking to be around the same price. So I've narrowed it down between the two. I have heard that the Yozza exhuast is very well built, produces a OEM type sound but does not provide an increase in...

Silver V6 looked very well cared for. Was behind you in a Blue Cooper S until you went onto the M3.

Heading towards newbury and come off at the A34 junction

Saw you this evening mate. I flashed my lights, waved and beeped. For once it was you in a world of your own!!!

As title need to change my rear bushes as they were an advisory on my MOT. Is it an easy job? i.e i've tackled the Aux belt on my own so how does it compare?! Also has anyone got a part number for the bushes so i can get some ordered from Renault? Thanks

This may be of interest to some people. It may have been posted before in the past but I could't find it when I did a search. http://www.thorneymotorsport.co.uk/tuning/Fuel_Test_Results_Update.shtml Some of it makes for an interesting read.

Was behind you for most of the dual carridgeway think you turned off towards swindon

Ive got an Iceberg PH1 and am quite a fan of keeping the sidestrips looking standard but I was thinking of spraying the side badges Iceberg silver as the chrome bit on them looks tatty. Has anybody painted theres silver and if so have you got a picture so I can decide if I like the look or...

I took a log for my 20 odd minute communte yesterday using my RStuner and noticed at one point the knock correction value was at 5.25 which i thought was pretty high. After an email to Henk he seems to think it could be high carbon build up in the engine and that I need to drive it more...

Where does the needle on your temperature gauge roughly sit?? Mine never reaches halfway and so just wondering if I need to change it.

I have been missing the extra low frequencies my sub used to provide before I sold it. However I cant afford to lose any boot space and I want to keep the spare wheel. I have removed the factory fit cd changer as I have a harddrive with all my music on. I can't help thinking that a Pioneer...

I dicided to refurb my grab handles as they were looking messy. For some reason I had the bright idea of doing them in Iceberg Silver the same as the car!!! They look ace but now make the gearknob and silver insert on the centre console look really untidy. How easy or hard is it to remove...

Just noticed on the last MOT my car had that they have metioned the rear bushes are worn. I had never really heard of these until the other day. Where are they located and are they easy to change?? I'm quite mechanically minded and have already done the aux belt and tensioners, all 4 disks...

Apart from the 1-2k whistle that I have atm I noticed a whine at about 3k which I put down to the bearing causing the whistle. However while going down the motorway at 70 earlier i was listening to the whine and its become more of a drone. To try and determine if it was engine related or not...

Saw you parked in the Lidels car park in Cirencester. Anyone on here??

Car is on 75,000. About 1500 miles ago I changed my AUX belt as the idler pulley was making a grinding noise. The previous owner had had the aux and cambelt & pulleys done at 45,000 at a well known clio tuner that is also known not to use the genuine aux belt kit hence no change in tensioner or...

LY was going towards Swindon and Blue 182 towards Cirencester about 8 this morning. Anyone on here???

Was behind this about 5 minutes ago all the way from hedge end to kitnocks hill. I was in a Black Nivara Truck my GF lives in Bats Hollow at the top of Kitnocks Hill you pulled in a few house's down???? Anyone on here?? Lovely car.

Car has another 7,000 miles till it needs the aux belt changing again and 4,500 till its next service. However one of the pulleys or the tensioner has started to sound a little unhealthy. I'm aware of the damage they can cause if one of them fails so i want to get it sorted ASAP. Now my...

Ive had my PH1 172 since before christmas now. The previous owner had both the window regulators changed. However one is obviously wired back to front as when I press up on the passenger side window it goes down. Can I change the wiring on the switch to compensate for this or do I have to rewire...
