Ive noticed my rad fan will randomly come on say every 5mins or so and run for about a 1 minute.....Funny thing is, is it still does this in the current weather conditions. I started it up earlier in -5c and idled for a few minutes when suddenly the fan fired up much to my surprise (way before...

If you email Henk, he will get back to you, normally within a day or so. All sorted now anyway :) Already sold it on!

It does say 8 sec 2jz s2000 lol so no vtec there!

Wasnt sure if we get discount so didnt mention it, how much is it? Might be worth getting them through West's then. I'll phone my local one again about normal 172 ones to check price :)

Just phoned the parts dept at local Renault with the number for cup wishbones and got a price of £60.83 plus vat each! does this mean cup ones are a lot more or have you got some major discount? lol

Re: dmallett's 421'd monaco I meant to say that would be me then, the other Monaco I mean, not the clown car lol better stop hijacking Dans thread :)

Re: dmallett's 421'd monaco That would be then I think lol....there was one with bright orange wheels on too! (not a Monaco)

Re: dmallett's 421'd monaco Have I seen you about in Gt Yarmouth on a Sunday eve before? Sure I recognise the plate

Not yet, had a look under the car and tried Chip's trick of trying to move the wheels by hand whilst steering lock is on, but could see no movement from the bushes/rack and they look in good nick tbh. Going to get some new genuine wishbones and ball joints and go from there ;)

Plus they will decent ball joints like you say, Ive had problems with cheap ones pretty quickly after them being fitted. Maybe OEM is the way to go with them, although I do track the car I like some give on the road, especially some of the ones I go on regularly!! Powerflex ARB's though I...

Ah, not too bad then, might order a pair then :) Definately worh changing it all together if you can afford to, to elimate any worn out parts that may still cause problems. I know my ARB bushes (at least the outer ones anyway) are a bit deformed and sloppy looking. Not sure whether to go with...

I had a look at my rack bushes yesterday and put the steering lock on and tried turning the wheels by hand under the car and no movement could be seen, and they dont look perished. May change them anyway just to eliminate them :) The track rods I got were EXACTLY the same size as the originals...

Fair enough, probably worth it in the long run :) I changed my TR's and TRE's not so long ago, but mine still doesnt feel "right". Are the wishbones £80 for the pair?

Nope, apparently not :)

Are the TRE/TR's and wishbones genuine Renault parts? As they seem quite expensive compared to aftermarket parts.....although probably better quality! £40 for one track rod??

Re: dmallett's 421'd monaco Haha *looks for another quote*......no, you win ;)

Re: dmallett's 421'd monaco Lol ^^^^^ ;) I think the bronze look quite good though (honestly)

Re: dmallett's 421'd monaco Anthracite F1's and a cup spoiler??? :nono::quiet: You may aswell just buy my car lol :rasp:

Seriously?? lol :) Looks awesome, always used to love Knight Rider back in the day!!

Hmmmm, as Danny said, whats it actually doing or not doing? EDIT: just found your old thread about it turning over but not firing. Have you checked that there's voltage at the injector plugs when cranking?

Ahhhhh that'll be it then, Ive only done a coupe! ;)

Hmmm I'll have a look, not sure why Im missing on, Ive done all the missions, hunters quests and wanted deads! Not everything though! Sounds "dangerous" lol

What kind of gun is it? Maybe I dont have it

Ripper? Whats the last weapon to discover? Ive not got one according to the progress bar :S

Re: dmallett's 421'd monaco I think the top pic looks alright actually, it'd prob look better washed with some tyre shine and not jacked up lol :)

You can do it all online at www.fastchip.nl. do you just want it for reprogramming the ecu?

Im pretty sure they're the same, its always been find until this problem started. I'll definately check them though.

Went out in my mates Glanza last night, feels pretty quick! She says its running 210bhp with a printout from the previous owner but from around 40 to 110 leptons my 172 was hanging onto the back well which surprised me! I imagine a genuine 210bhp would leave me easily at most speeds, seeing as...

It does under hard acceleration, and if I loosely hold it, it will want to pull about at the slightest dip in the road and/or if I steer it slightly it'll grab and keep pulling that way. But only when accelerating. Will do mate, I was just gonna start with the cheaper possibility first and go...

Yes, after getting the unlock VCI code from Henk, it connected and allowed me to manually input the VIN. Took the screenshot and have sent it over and awaiting reply :)
