I have now moved the lights inside and they are very bright at night, light the whole rear of the car up so this now saves me fitting a light in the back which I was planning on doing.
I think they look better. :D
*************STILL UPLOADING PHOTOS*************************...
I was bored on Ebay, so started looking for stuff to buy for my clio 182. I came across these strips of LEDs which are similar to the ones on the new Audi's. Just bought them for a laugh, they look ok ish, not the best but i've yet to see them during the night, hopefully they will look ok.
I...
I was driving on the M1 on Friday night and I road over two bits of moving plasterboard and one of them hit the unerneath of my car really hard. I stopped at the services for petrol, turned the engine on and the Emissions light is on now. Looked under the car and some cable is hanging down, not...
My front window had a chip on it. I taped it and it cracked, it was only about 8" when it cracked, now its right to the top of the window and just over 3/4 down the window. But its in the centre. Should I replace it straight away or will it be ok through the winter?
As my brother is staying in Dubai for another 10 years his registration is no longer needed on his car as he's setting it. Its on his Boxter and he said I can have it but how do I go about changing it from his car onto mine?
Thanks in advance
My wipers have started to play up, I think I must have a short somewhere.
They work fine until I put the rear spray on. Then it all goes wrong with the sprays. When I go to put the front spray on the back one comes on and the two headlight sprays come on but the front doesn't!!!
One time...
This is doing my head in, had a phone call at 2:10am this morning from my mam, before I answered I was like, oh no something bads happened!!!! Thank god it was only my car window, but its the 3rd time its been smashed and nothing was on dispay this time, the other two times I had my sat van...
Stopped at the traffic lights near the mima. You were flashing at me and waving your hands for some strange reason. Maybe cos I had my lights on, but I always do in dull weather conditions as I want people to see me!!!! Its horrible and grey outside!!
I bought some Nankang SN-2 from mytyres and had them fitted on Monday (last week) everything was ok riding round the street roads. But I was on the motorway and I turned left then right very quick and the car seamed to wobble for a bit afterwards, it felt as if the sidewalls were moving. But my...
I've just been quoted £15 per tyre, + VAT from North Eastern Tyres and Exhausts and I think thats far too expensive, I was expecting about £11 per tyre!!
Does anyone know of any cheap tyre fitters in the Middlesbrough area. I had some fitted by Formula1 (http://www.f1autocentres.co.uk) and...
My two tone horn is now a one tone horn (high pitch) so it sounds gay. Is it easy to change, how long will it take and do you think it may be blocked or full water.
Thanks in advance.
Just had it estimated due to a van hitting be from behind. They also estimated the cost of repair to be £3,280. Its only a 54 plate, 3 years old with 60,000 miles on. Thats a steep depreceation isn't it!!!
I was told to go through a solicitors instead of going through my insurance company (elephant.co.uk). I rang them up and they said I don't need to ring my insurance people as they will do everything. They will get my car repaired with a courtesy car and they will get me some personal injury...
Wasn't my fault though, everyone in front of me slammed on their brakes, I stopped in time and then this van smashed into the back of me, and I hit the car in front due to the van hitting me. I'm ringing the insurance people tomorrow.

My exhaust is rattling now when I shut the doors/boot/bonnet, it only just started rattling this week. I looked under it and its very corroded/rusty. I think its on its way out and i'll be buying one before the year is over.
How long should they last, its on my 2 year old clio 182, which is 3...
Erm It not working as well as it should. Got it topped up at Ren Tech last september and its not cold its just cool. Might need checking and topping up again.
In the photo, the thick pipe (on the left hand side of the photo) is very cold but the pipe next to it is just cool. I don't know whats...
Anyone else having this problem, I washed my car in Portsmouth last week and at the end of the week it was full of dust, probably from the sahara. I washed it again in Middlesbrough on Saturday as i'm on leave from the Navy at the moment and its full of dust, like a fine mud again.
Anyone...
The tread is still pretty deep. They have done 60,000 miles (80% motorway). You can see on the photos attached, that little cracks are appearing on the rim of the wheels as the tyres keep going down, I have to pump them up once a week, sometimes twice.
How can I clean it, i've not tried yet, but they look stained due to the washers. Hopefully it will just wipe off, but knowing my luck it will be scratched. Pic below.
I bought the bluevision ones and they were just yellow like the standard sidelights Renault put in the clio. Anyway I went to ebay and found a set of LED lights and they are quality, the match the xenon's lights I'm very happy.
Took some photos of the LED sidelights, they good nice...
Horns!!!
My horn has stopped working. Well one of them has, do clios have a double horn as somtimes it sounds as it should do, with two tones of the horn, but now its just sounds like a single horn which sounds high pitched.
Are there any decent horns out there, that I can buy.
My brothers car, (megane 225) has went into the garage this weekend just gone as when he put his foot down on the accellerator the car would wait for about 2 - 3 seconds then decide to go, then it would stop accelerating and then it would go again.
This is linked to my car problem, I was...
My renewal came yesterday for £649
I went on their site and filled my details in and changed a few things. This came to £370. I then asked why it was the renewal was so expensive and she said because I was paying monthly. So i then said it doesn't cost that much to pay monthly.
I asked to...
I am going to change my sidelights today and put in the Philips Blue Vision ones. I had a quick try today but failed, its really in an awkward position and i think I need some pliers. Am i right in saying they twist off, twist and pull and they should come free?
Thanks in advance.
This is...
