By the time i've washed the car, dried it, used AG SRP & AG EGP I have lost interest so I normally just use some quick detailer to finish.
So, which wax can I get which is easy and quick to use?
It will be used on my Iceburg Silver 172 and if she's good the mrs's silver Corsa C.
Spotted a Inferno V6 - WV06 *** driving down through Wraxhall towards Nailsea yesterday around 2:00pm.
Never seen one in that colour before, it looked awesome.
Does anyone know the price of a backbox from Renault for a 172?
I can't get through on the phone to my local dealer.
I'm not after a loud exhaust and I had the centre section replaced last year, so as long as it's not too much i'll get a Renault one.
Been quoted £73.07 fitted each from Costco for PE2's, but I need to pay in advance for them to be ordered.
Or
Goodyear F1's for £69 fitted by Protyre which they have in stock right now and are close.
I know Mytyres is cheaper but after you hand around for delivery and pay for fitting...
Went to Westec in Newport today for a rolling road.
The Clio produced 167.6bhp on the first run and 170.2bhp on the second, so I'm quite chuffed with that as I've only added a itg panel filter.
My mates Cupra R Leon made 221.3bhp and an other Cupra R made 222bhp, so I would say the Clio...
It's driving me nuts. When the car is warmed up in traffic, I get a creeking noise coming from the passenger side behind the centre console when I turn the steering wheel slightly, and it knocks when pulling away and just before I stop.
It was in the dealers yesterday, to repair the sheared...
I've been having a knocking noise pulling away and when stopping, so I just took the battery out and noticed that the top bolt has sheared?
I'm guessing this is the reason for the knocking and creeking i'm getting when pulling away.
Will I be able to get a garage to drill out the bolt...
Ph1 with carbon style bonnet.
I was on the GSXR bike, it was good to see how my bike faired against the 172.
I just couldn't get the power down as the roads are like riding on chalk with all the salt on the road.
I've got a rolling road day booked at Westec in Newport, anyone used them before? They seem pretty good.

I'm going on 25th Feb with SeatForum.Net, hopefully I won't be the lowest on bhp there.
But I hope i'll be have the highest bhp NA engine there as I...
I've had my 172 for 16 months now and have done 12,000miles, but i've had few things go wrong.
So far I think i've been back to the Renault at least 15-18 times and been without my car for nearly a month in total.
So far I have had...
New Carbon Canister
New Alternator
2 x New Brake...
Sometimes in traffic when I pull away or move the steering wheel slightly when stationary, I have noticed a creaking noise coming from the passenger side of the car.
It sounds a bit like the dashborad creaking, but it sounds like it's coming from under the floor.
Any one got any ideas?
Black 172 CN03 in Winterbourne about 4:00ish.
Blue 182 05 plate - in yate about 4:30ish
2 x Trophy's in Emersons Green on Sat night, one in the Shell Garage and one by Sainsbury's
Seems the 100's of Clio Sports in Bristol recently.
I gave my car a good wash, poish, wax and EGP the other week and was wondering if I want to wax the car again with Chemical Guys Cherry Wax, do I need to re-apply the AutoGlym EGP.
Also do I wax the car before or after the EGP treatment.
I have noticed that when pulling away hard in first i'm getting a knocked noise which I first thought was just the tyres trying to grip.
Is it right in me thinking this is the 'Dog Bone' engine mounts???
I know you can get new mounts from KTEC.
Are these the best ones to get and how...
I got my car booked in on Sat with Renault, due to the ESP and Service light coming on.
It came on 3 times on Friday last week, but nothing since.
I guess there is a certain amount of start ups till it gets wiped, I just don't want to pay for Renault to plug it in and say there's nothing...
The ESP & Service light keeps coming on every now and again.
Once I turn the engine off and back on it's gone, will this still show up if I take it back in to Renault.
The car is out of warranty now, but I had a new brake switch under warranty about 9 months ago, could it be that?
I'm after reasonable car cover for the winter, just as an overnight protection.
I've found a few around £60, as I don't want to spend a lot.
Can anyone recommend one and where to get one??
Spotted a Sliver 'RX02' PhII, 172. - PhI silver 172 - 'WR52' Blue 172 Cup about 8:00 last night on the ring road by the Beefeater and Sainsbury's
Also this morning I saw a red MkII V6 with a Private Plate on the M5 by Cribbs, spotted it a few times now.
My mate wants to get his Megane remapped.
He is struggling to find anywhere to get this done, he has tried K-TEC but they are still trying to sort out maintaining the boast at max revs, with their remap.
Any ideas???
My mate is looking to trade his 182 in for a Megane 225.
He has been offered £9,500 for it with £700 of the Megane making it £13,299.
The 182 is an June 05, Black gold, both cup packs, Front Recaro's with 9k on the clock.
I think the Megane is a bit expensive, but do you think that's a...
I want to see what sort of power my standard 172 is pushing out.
Is there anywhere in the South West (around Bristol) which people would recommend to try???
Yesterday I had a FTO trying to weld it's self to my rear bumper on the way to the mall.
I knocked it into third and started to pull away through the bends, but he kept trying to race me at every set of traffic lights and it was a struggle off the mark to get away.
My mum had a FTO MVEC...
