The missus took her car to her nan and grandads the otherday and her grandad went out of the house and returned about 10 minutes later saying he had cleaned her wheels but because there were some marks he had to use a brillo pad (what the fuk????).
Anyway he has fucked the wheels they are not...
Got an Alpine CD headunit, had it about a year and all of a sudden it has started playing up when listening to CD's. Certain CD's it will play for a few seconds and then just stop and say CD ERROR and wont even eject.
Any ideas on a fix?
Can you use those CD lens cleaner things?

Anyone used any of the above or know wether you just rest the gauge against the wheel to read the camber?

Anyone know what the maximum neg camber is on F.K konigsports.
If you do adjust the camber yourself is the a camber measuring tool, if so any ideas where you get them from?
Thanks

Well thought my pikey exhaust (kwik fit jobby) was getting boomier and unbearable on the motorway, turns out the baffles are gone. So i thought i would see if anyone on here had one lying around i could use.
So i collected it yesterday, and that too is fooked.
So thats the baffles in my old and...
My exhaust bracket is shot to pieces (thanks 2 jamesstone guide on how to bodge it).
Anyone know the best place to get them from, if i remember correctly there was a thread a while ago with them a hell of a lot cheaper than from renault but i cant find it.
Please help

I have heard of the adjusting platform being removed on colovers to get the
rear lower.
How easy is this to do?
Do you need to undo the shock?
How much difference does it make to the height and more importantly the
handling?
I have FK konigsports by the way
Sorry for all the...
I was so impressed with the cleaning power of autoglym machine and engine
cleaner in my wheelarches yesterday i think i will give the engine bay a go

Ok, heres my question i am going to get some turinis (16") but im a bit
confused about offsets. I understand that the cup are ET37 and

Am i right in thinking i would need the trophy offset if im running coilovers?

I know it sad but i was a bit bored today so thought i would give the wheelarch insides a bit of a clean.
Used Autoglym machine and engine cleaner, just sprayed it on and hosed it off. Very pleased with the results. :approve:

Had to use the renault jack today to get my car high enough to get the trolley jacke under it. What a mission, firstly why does the jack have a flat head when the jacking point is a this bit of metal. Surely they must know it is gonna bend when u try and jack up the car.
A pic to show what i mean
I have FK konigsports (Couldn't afford AST's or H&R's)
I jacked the rear up, put it on axle stands, and took wheels off.
To adjust the height, the platform is on the bottom of the spring but i couldnt get both c spanners on to turn them.
Do i need to undo the shock aswell?
What would...
Just wanted to thank jamesstone for the guide on how to modify the sagging exhaust bracket. Thought i would have a lok at mine this am and noticed it was totally knackered. Being past 12 on xmas no where open to get a new one so guide really helped 4 now.
cheers
I cant believe the price of tyres, been ringing around garages to get 2 new fronts and one garage even tried quoting me £68 for budget tyres, he knew it was for a clio sport so why even offer me budgets, numpty.
Rant over.
16" white, could be a bargain

Since changing to l.e.d sidelights my nearside sidelight has developed a loose connection in the little loom at rear of bulb. If it turn lights on and hold the back or twist it a bit it stays on. But if i drive off afetr a few bumps, its off.
Is this a bumper off and light out job to fix?
Anyone used the above products? i was watching sum crap late night tv last night and i turned over to one of these shopping channels and saw this stuff. They said u just spray the wax on and polish off with a microfibre! Surely this will scratch the fook out of the paint?
Anyone used, is it...
Hello guys, im going to be jacking up my car 2morow to adjust the height. I have got a trolley jack and axle stands, where is the safest place to jack it up from and the safest place to put the axle stands?
P.S my girlfriend just read this and replied "The driveway"!!!!!
Dan
