    Turbo pressure solenoid valve wires

    Get some new wires re-pinned with the same ones that are in the plug and then splice those into the wiring after you've cut off the bad bits. Use heat shrink butt crimp connectors if you can't solder very good. Nothing worse than a dry joint. Or if soldering, use heat shrink with the glue...

    What's been chewing at them 😂

    Clio 172, 172 cup

    You'll be paying more for the Cup if the dealer has their prices right. Both cost the same to maintain, although the Cup is cheaper and simpler on the cam belt/aux belt change with the lack of air con.

    Caliper, Disc, Pad, braided lines & Handbrake cable replacement - Help needed

    Crack the nut off and then remove the clip securing it to the car. Should be able to spin the line off by hand then.

    Not a bad idea that.

    Kangoo Compact (aka Racevan3)

    Any links to a kit that'll adapt to the header tank to pump it up?

    Caliper, Disc, Pad, braided lines & Handbrake cable replacement - Help needed

    Give the disc a tap with a hammer from behind all the way around. Are the brake line stuck in the caliper or on the car?

    Kangoo Compact (aka Racevan3)

    :( Gutted mate, no doubt it'll be back stronger than ever. I've noticed a slight coolant loss on the 182 recently too. Last time it was a small hole in the rad, but it's been fine since that was done about a year ago :unsure: Can't see any leaks anywhere, just need to have a look around the...

    ABS/SERV/ESP lights still on after sensor swap

    Odd one. The light usually self clears with abs faults when the fault is fixed.

    On a scale of 1-10, how well do you look after your gear? Sounds like it could do with a blast out with an air line once a day/week.

    F4R-730 F4R-830 compatibility

    Find some 197/200 pistons, job done. Slightly higher compression than 172/182 pistons.

    First test of Yokohama's A052

    That sort of temp must be hard to manage on any normal day surely? Most track tyres operate in the 60-90c range. On a hot day you're looking at 30+ track temps alone. My AR1's are in the 40-50's even after a cooldown lap, measured with a longacre pyrometer. Not saying you're wrong by the way.

    I was under the same impression as you about the lambda on cold start. A mate had a similar issue and a new sorted it. Weird really, it must still reference it even in open loop.

    Oil question

    5w40 is 5w40 😂

    Oil question

    All manufacturers will claim their oil does this and that, but they will all meet the car makers spec one way or another. Topping up with a different brand won't make a great deal of a difference.

    Oil question

    If the light is on, it's used more than 'some' surely... May as well do an oil change as you say, for what it costs and peace of mind.

    WiFi router recommendations please

    Is that 60mb/s via the repeater which is wired to the router? If so, it'll just be the repeater maxing out. No reason why you shouldn't get the same speed connecting direct to the cable. Saying that, 60mb/s should be plenty for video calls.

    Swapped my Winmax W5 for the same oem brembo pads too. Braking power isn't too bad and it's nice having a quiet deceleration and less metal dust over my brand new 2118's 😅

    Can you make the head lights not come on when the car is started?

    Autolights on? With key at position 2, turn lights on and off twice and you should hear a beep to confirm.

    Nathan tried ripping me off for the die grinder and boot combo at £145, when the grinder is £100 and £16 for the boot :whistle:

    The new tool thread

    Can't go wrong with USPro stuff for the money and like you say for how much they'll get used. Thinking about it, they'd have come in handy when we did the clutch on my brother's cmax. One b*****d of a nut on a stud to get the box off 😅

    ABS Fault after fitting new discs

    Like you say, a piece of dirt or loose rust must have got disturbed and fell inside.
