Does anyone have a spare key fob that they could take the back off of and take a picture of how the inside is laid out? Someone has taken theirs apart and its all fallen apart inside and wants to make sure its assembled correctly. :cool:

Alongside Homebase on Saturday evening around 8pm :cool:

I am torn between genuine Renault rear discs, or Brembo. I am more concerned about the bearing quality. Pay a little bit more and get Renault OEM with 'presumably decent' bearings? Experiences welcomed.

Or anyone that may know... There are hundreds of threads about 172 cups, and MOT failures. Now, my MOT is due soon and even armed with the VOSA printout proving the braking is crap, I want to be more prepared. I want to know what effort amount as a minimum is required for the rear...

Spotted Saturday in the 'town' centre. Noticed a CS sticker on the bonnet.

Yes I know, more threads on this than anything but this may be useful for the records. We are all aware that the 172 Cups are renowned for failing the MOT due to the rear braking efficiency. My question is, what is the borderline reading that is classed as a pass. Should a Cup with no...

Always seeing you around. Followed you the other day and tried to see where you went to say Hi. But you shot over a rounder about and I couldn't keep up.

I think thats what I need. Basically I have a vinyl plotter which uses a serial port for connectivity. Currently an RS232 to USB cable connects it to my PC. This is very unreliable and ideally I want to cut the middleman and have basically a card with a male serial port on my computer. So...

Saw quite a few 1*2's yesterday around 5.30pm ish. 3 year roadworks FTL :dapprove:

I have a cell that I need to change colour when a certain amount of characters are entered. Basically its so when a certain amount of staff initials are entered, it can change colour red,amber,green when there are enough staff to operate. 2 or 3 staff, red 4 or 5 staff, amber 6 and...

I bought a bottle of touch up paint that I had mixed a few weeks ago. I was intending on touching in a couple of nicks on the edge of the door but haven't got round to it yet. How long is it supposed to last? The bottle has its lid on obv, but wondered whether it starts to go thick and horrible...

Had my Cup about 18 months now and I seem to be at a stage where i'm not happy with it. I look at it sometimes and don't like the lines of it and wish I had something else. Had it standard for about a year, then I fitted some coilovers and changed the wheels to have a different look. I am...

I am after a cheapy laser printer, looking at second hand ones on Ebay from office clearances etc. Through school, college, and various work places everywhere I have been have used HP LaserJet printers. The toners seem reasonably priced, the printers themselves have been going for over ten...

Have had a couple of faults with my phone and broadband recently, main one being the home hub ringing itself occasionally, and nobody being able to get through on my home phone number. It got rediculous late last night and I rang BT to ask what was causing it and spoke to a really helpful chap...

I have raised my car up enough so that it doesn't scrub which is great, but I am going camping and with the extra weight I can see it rubbing again. I don't want to bend it unless I have to, but for the record so that I am doing it properly at the side of the road in the event of scrubbage...

Though it may be a good idea to have a thread containing prices people have paid to have their tracking/camber aligned as prices seem to vary hugely. Maybe something along the lines of: Location: XXXX Settings carried out: Camber set to standard and tracking front only Cost: £X And anything...

At least they aren't Pro Race 1.2's :cool: Nice lightweight wheels these. Just a few piccies taken with my mobile as I haven't put any on here before. When I initially lowered it: :o Oops. Too far down on the threads for installation Don't worry I still have silver Turini's? so...

Does anyone have / be kind enough to take a pic of their fuse box under the bonnet please. I have a fuse at the bottom of the tray and presume its either been dropped as a spare, or I am going to find something random doesn't work in the future. :star:

I have had to get a mate in the trade to order me a new driveshaft. He has made some calls and found me a non genuine copy shaft for a motor factor for my 172 cup. The motor factors have said that the 172 cup shafts are different. I imagine they mean that they have an ABS ring on them which...

Right. I am changing my CV boot as I split it when I dropped my shock on it :o I have removed the hub nut, and tried to knock the shaft through the hub but it is 'welded' on there. I haev wacked it with a mallet to protect the threads and the end, and then put the nut back on and whacked it...

When fitting my coilovers my shock slammed down onto the CV boot and caused a small hole near the clip by the hub. I thought it would be reet as it was a very small nick out of it :o Now I have noticed lots of grease coming out of it so will need to replace it. I read that it needs to be...

Edd? Seen earlier on Liseux way at around 4.30 ish. :cool: Looks amazingly clean.

I seem to be pondering too much about my wheel choices and need to make a decision and just stick with it! I have a set of lightweight 15s on the cup at the moment and I like the fact the tyres cost feck all. What I dislike is, the huge gap in the arches. Now I have coilovers in the attic...

Have been with Adrian Flux for the past 3 years and have always found them to be very competitive with price. I got my renewal through recently and was expecting it to go up as thats what I have read alot about on here. But it had gone down from last year, but not by a great deal. Great I...

I am due to get k tec coilovers fitted very soon and currently have Turini's but also have some spare lightweight 15s that I like. I am debating which route to go down. Obviously 15" tyres will be cheaper so I like that idea, but also like the look and prefer the offset of the Turini's. I am...

The missus has a month left on her policy and they are not prepared to re insure her unless she pays £1500 more than last year. Obviously that is an insult and financially unviable so she wishes to cancel the policy and will have to sell the car. They are saying that because the policy has...

Who stocks just the front pair of braided lines? I read that you can get fronts alone, but haven't come across any so wondered if it is still possible

I have Turinis on the cup currently, which I like the look of, but I also have some white 15" Team Dynamic Pro Race 1's. I was running the white Team Dynamics for a while until the tyres got low then changed back to the Turinis. I liked the white look for a while, but always thought they looked...

Spotted yesterday afternoon. A member?

Saw this around Taunton on Saturday afternoon. Usually see it knocking around. Anyone on here?
