Agreed I could a far better job than the stupid Renault monkeys or the majority of garages for that matter, but for future resale purposes I need the service history. I suppose you could keep the receipts as to prove it’s been done. I have done this in the past with older cars but I think that...

What the fook is a ph-quick?

the resisters are sh*t use a turbo zet http://www.rse.co.uk/turbozet.htm, these are far better i run 2 on my 172 and i blew away my mates 1000bhp skyline the other day that only uses the resisters.

its axle tramp, nearly every fwd car ive ever driven does it just more evident in a 172 etc due to more power even my 65bhp renault kangoo does it!!!! (well just about!!!!)

f**k me they munched through 3 sets of discs???
