Ok I know its a little off of the clio theme.. but I just picked up my work van from renault.I have a Master.. it was in for a 36k service.Nothing too special... fuel/air/oil filters, fresh oil, check it over etc.... ok ... bill at the end... £360 !!! Also it the Catalytic convertor was...
a stud extracter will remove them niceley.Otherwise they are pretty easy to drill out really.Just as long as you have a nice straight pilot hole a larger drill will go through and take enough of the bolt out.Give the stud extractors a go though... but a couple incase you snap one off.They are...
What did the yanks think about the cars?? My wifes american and whenever I try to explain to her family the concept of a small light weight car with 160 odd horses they start talking about 7litre V8s and stuff lol... One car I would like to own though is an F150 ...
Same thing happened to one of our work vehicles.It was written off, so we got a pay out from the insurance and bought a new one.2 months down the line and we recieved a parking ticket for the written off vehicle.We just told the issueing authority about the write off and who dealt with it.Ie the...
Im not far behind... 25... when I was 18 I had a ford escort with Cherry bombs on ... so Ive been through the loud as possible stage... I now just appreciate a sporty sound.. lol
Hi all... Im after your opinions on Magnex back boxes.Im not really into LOUD exhausts that make your ears bleed on the motorway.I like a quick quiet car but a sporty sound is sometimes nice.
Its just Ive been offered one of these for £85 which is cheap right?
it is the 6x4 though I prefer...
lol yeah I used a damp cloth to put it on.I read the instructions through just in case there were any tips to applying it.That will suck if they do discontinue it.Im going to the states on the 23rd of May so I might try to grab a load while I am there.
Face Ill post some pics next weekend as I...
Impressed!!! I gave the car a wash this afternoon and there was a little light left so I thought I would give the S100 a go just on the bonnet and I must say Im impressed!! ... it went on easy... although the S100 SEC was a little hard to see if it was going on smoothly, maybe that was due to...
Blimey... Have u sent them a mail.It should have been here by now.
.... its just started to absolutely poor down here... the sort of rain where your alloys are covered in dirt when you go out in the morning.So Im glad I didnt bother cleaning the car today.
Found this on ebay... it just looks so crud.

.. and there are 30 of those stuck on cars so far..
Face , the microfibres you have.Do they look like felt?? or can you see lots of loops of material on the cloth?
I bought some Microfibres a couple of days ago, and I got some today but they are both different.
Oh and it was raining today so no polishing for me.
I did get a cool buy today...
I just renewed my insurance today.Ive been thinking about lowering my car, so out of interest I asked if it would add to my premium.All they asked me is what the mod was and how much it would cost to do.I told them about £150 so they put it down as valued under £250.It would have cost an...
I think the ecu retards the ignition when the engine is cold, or it runs on a rich mixture.Making the car feel un-responsive.This is also probaly whats making the gear change jerky.Mines exactly the same.It goes away at exactly the same point every morning on the way to work.Apparently there is...
Ok well I recieved the s100 and the s100 SEC in the post this morning, and I also picked up some applicated pads and micro fibers.So Im set!! I usually use the lint free stockinette stuff.I bought about 15 rolls of it a while ago so Ive been slowly using that.My mums been using those microfibres...
Take the ring off of the key and slide the two halfs appart.Its pretty tight though.If you hold the key with the button facing up (as if you were pointing it at your car to unlock it) the top of the key should slide back towards you.
Ive had to do a couple of these now as my work vans are...
Just to add to the numbers, my steering wheel is not quite straight either.
As for noises behind the dash, mine come and go depending how warm it is outside, I guess things expand and contract.
I ordered the S100 wax and the S100 SEC today Face... I should have it by tomorrow : ) it sounds like very cool stuff.Im sure it will be well worth it.
Talking about using the sec in straight lines I must admit with my 172 I decieded from new to only polish it from front to back, as you say...
I had my clutch replaced because it was slipping, but it only happened under hard acceleration.The crank shaft oil seal was leaking oil and contamination the clutch.
But yours sounds more like its juddering at the bite point right? My new clutch is a little juddery.Have you been doing a lot of...
Hey Cool...ok thanks Face.... Im definatley going to give the S100 a try... Ill check out that website...
If its dry this weekend and I get it in time Ill give it a try....
Once again thanks for all the info... Its saved me a lot of time searching for a good polish...
Very Cool : ) .. my car was on there woohoo... it was a great day I enjoyed it a lot.Its got me itching to mod my car too, I think first thing will be a 35mm drop.
My wife was saying she counted about 36 of us going out onto the track.
Oh I forgot... yes it was the bright blue zymol... I wasnt sure wether to get it as I have heard it can be a pain to use.I didnt realise it was made by Turtle wax though.Currently Im just using turtle wax (the paste kind) then Auto Glym extra gloss protection on top.Which Im happy with but feel...
Hi There FaceMan ok thanks for the info, there is actually a Harley Davidson dealer about a mile down the road from me.I might go and see if I can get hold of some. I understand the wax but what is the S100 SEC?? and will that go on after the wax??
Ok so I went into Halfords today (I was bored) and I came across Zymol which Ive seen discussed in the forums before.The thing is I was about to buy the Meguiars 3 stage Deep Crystal system online.
Which one do you guys think will give the best results?? Probally the Meguiars as its 3 stage...
