Two questions about foglights; Firstly are Ph2 Sport and non sport ones the same? and secondly how do they fit in to the surronds on a sport? Looked at a few photos on ebay and doesn't seem all that clear? No bolt holes or anything. Thanks.

Ah right are the £25 code readers actually any good?

The engine management light has come on, on my 182, only had it since Saturday, and have RAC warranty so if its anything major ill be covered hopefully. Anyone have any ideas what it maybe? The car drives absolutely fine, no misfire at all, the light came on after getting tyres changed on the...

You picked up a 182 today and chased mpg figures? Seems strange to me! ​I picked one up today too and came the scenic route home over the snake pass etc... I didn't get 37mpg! Lol

Annoys me so much, this! My mate took his car in for an MOT yesterday, was told to take it in at 12 and they would get it done, waited half an hour before they started, then the test took about an hour (usaully half an hour to 45 mins doesn't it?) it failed on two rear tyres, so he said ok...

Any body used these guys? They seem to have a fair few clios for sale at the moment, thinking of going up and having a look but could do with a heads up as to whether they are any good if any body knows owt before I make the 200 mile round trip! Cheers!

Was on the receiving end of a catch that hadn't been done on my ph1 when I first got it, not fun! Happened on a rural road, at 60-ish mph, in the rain, with no phone signal and about 3 miles to the nearest busy road, lucky it happened where it did, on the only long stretch of straight along the...

Do magnecor make any difference what so ever over standard leads then like even something running silly power?

Hi, just wondering if anyone is from Northampton and would be willing to look over a car for me at a garage, for a few beer tokens? (Wasn't really sure which region to put this post in, seems Northampton is pretty much bang central!

I'm coming along with a mate, what time are people arriving at? First time, is it easy enough to find?

Oh right, strange! Ill have a look tomorrow then, cheers. Any other suggestions anybody?

I did think gearbox mount at one point, but that wouldnt explain why it doesnt knock when turning left, would it?

Came on all of sudden whilst out for a drive and got gradually worse. Would I be right in thinking drive shaft? Symptoms are vibrating through the wheel and loud knocking noise, gets worse when not on the accelerator and not there at all when turning left. How much am i looking at to buy the...

Looks a pretty good circuit for beginners actually, based on the circuit map and a couple of youtube vids. Any more opinions would be welcome! Feel my front pads and fluid need sorting though, as well as a service before I can book, so could be tight. Planning on going to the ring in the...

Blyton good for a first time track dayer? Might be up for it if so, first meet too.

Cheers Tom, that'll do the trick.

Is there anyway to do the above? Through an app or other methods, like remote but obviously with different devices. So for example could put the iPhone in the dock the other side of the room then through wifi select and skip songs. Cheers.

Hi, I've had damp in the interior twice, im not talking a little bit, I mean puddles. I've cleaned the scuttle drains and this has fixed it both times, but surely they can't have filled up this time as the car is off the road (Parked on drive) so doubt muck has built up inside. The roof liner...

Ah that was the next plan, cheers. Should the piston stop winding? I've seen people say wind it all the way in clockwise, but just seems to keep on going forever and not actually move!

Got them from G172 on here, and he has confirmed its the right part! I'm probably being a fool, when the pads are in the holder and pushed out to both sides as far as they will go and you slide it on to the disc, it seems as though they fit perfectly. I just cant wind the calliper far enough...

Have done Dan, seems as though the pads are too thick! It's hard to explain. Will hae another go and grab some photos.

Yeah I wound it all they way, it didn't stop twisting but didn't seem to move any more.. if that makes sense. I'll have to give it another bash when i get chance and will grab some photos if i am still struggling.

I' dont have any no, must be doing something wrong. It definitely slides though because i marked just above the bolt hole to make sure i was winding the right way. Think i'm gonna bolt on the carrier and try getting the pads in then tightened up the bolts, hopefully that'll work, otherwise I'm...

It's definitely sliding, but i cant get the bolt holes to line up at all, its almost as if the pads are too thick. If do get them lined up then the carrier and pads wont fit onto the disc!

Trying to change my rear pads, got the carrier off without too much of an issue, got the old pads out and new ones in just fine. But now I cant get the carrier to line up with the bolt holes at all to fix it back in, no matter how much i wind or unwind the piston. What glaringly obvious...

Yeah found the cat to manifold kit, is it easy enough to fix? As in obvious, I really am a mechanical r****d. Do you have a link to the gasket for the rear flange? Can't see anything. Cheers.

Hi, I'm in desperate need of a backbox no one on here seems to have one. So been having a look around and seen this on ebay http://tinyurl.com/ckdzza2, looks the same shape as the standard phase 1, I presume its a pattern part, does anyone have any experience of these, likely to last 10 minutes...

Cheers John, so any phase 2 cat will fit, with a standard phase 1 back box? cheers.

I was going to call the thread a question about cats, that would of been silly. Anyway yeah few questions, I have a phase 1 172, I need a new cat, mine is a double barrelled twin one. Can i put a single cat on, or does it need to be the same? Will a phase 2 cat fit? Now this is the stupidest...
