    What have you done to your car today ???

    Took them out after it had happened and it fixed the binding issue, but obviously the damage was already done. I've never run the shims with previous track pads and i can safely say i won't be again 😂

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Rebuilding the calipers yesterday after being a complete idiot at Oulton Park on Saturday and nearly setting fire to the brakes 😂 Put some new CL RC6's in but left the anti-rattle shims in from my oem road pads... I knew this was a bad idea but still did it 🤬 One session in and the pads had...

    Power Steering Pump: How Loud is Too Loud?...

    Ahh right, definitely not the oil pump then. Bit s**t that the recon pumps aren't very good 😔

    Power Steering Pump: How Loud is Too Loud?...

    Is it from a cold start or all the time? Just to eliminate it, but from cold the oil pump on these can be quite noticeable for a minute or so.

    Ktec sell aftermarket arms now which look fairly decent.

    182 hazard warning lights flashing continuously again

    Not having a bonnet switch won't set the alarm off. I removed mine about 7 years ago.

    Gen90 data cable always plugged in?

    Seen it done with other ECUs, so I don't see why not. Other than it being in the engine bay, so could be susceptible to moisture ingress?

    Rocker cover gasket leak?

    No idea what that's off. Can't imagine it being an inlet gasket leak, otherwise you'd have a high idle.

    Must have used a fair bit of this when paying for them 😂

    Rocker cover gasket leak?

    It can leak from the actual solenoid seal which is next to the oil filler. Or it could be any of the bolts really. If it's just the odd bolt leaking, you can remove it and put a bit of silicone under the head and nip it back up.

    Rocker cover gasket leak?

    No, it's a cambelt job mate. The cover holds the cams in. It's a liquid gasket too, not a physical rubber seal. First cylinder on the left would be no.4. Potentially it could be the dephaser solenoid seal, which is easy enough to do.

    Kangoo Compact (aka Racevan3)

    I've no idea how to calculate that, but the 172 cams will be a 'bigger' cam won't they compared to the Meg ones. This will lower the dynamic ratio i think.

    Kangoo Compact (aka Racevan3)

    You're right in the ballpark with 8.3:1 then. Will see 350 all day, no bother.

    What's standard Mégane 3 compression?

    Kangoo Compact (aka Racevan3)

    Probably splitting hairs for the power you'll be looking to run. I'd go with the 1.75mm gasket. 8.3:1 sounds plenty low enough. Cover and sump look good.

    Bilt Hamber autofoam has removed light contamination like that for me, when mixed up strong. Depends how long it's been on there.
