    Can anyone with Lovefilm or Netflix please tell me...

    If you can stream Mad Men series 5? I'm trying to get this for my mum... my torrent site seems to have died!? Nothing will download from Isohunt any more :quiet:

    Alternatives to Spray Shack?

    Over the past few days I've tried PMing, starting a topic on their ClioSport sub-section and applying for a quote via their online form on their website... however I've not had a reply despite the chap being online several times. I'm at the point where everything I want spraying is off my car...

    Okay I changed my dials today, couple of issues!

    Firstly I noticed when I turn off the car now there's a 'kick' when the needles go down... they seem to go slightly too far, and the 'kick' brings them back into line, this isn't normal is it? I swear it wasn't doing it before! Then I also noticed the temperature gauge was going too far down...

    Can I install white needles... and removing dial rings!

    Hi two things here... 1) I want white needles... I believe some other Clio models have these as standard? If so can I use them on my 182? Otherwise I'll have to spray what I've got I guess. 2) I want to remove the dial rings for spraying, it seems they just have to be forced off. Is there a...

    Cup spoiler colour...

    Hi someone selling a 'silver' cup spoiler... obviously these came on the 182's but was it the same on the 172's? I've asked him if it's Titanium or Iceberg but not had a response as yet :S

    Interior trim and dash removal...

    Hi I'm soon to prepare getting parts off that I want sprayed up... to start of with the steering wheel insert, gear knob insert and the dash strips. Do I literally just pop these out of place with a knife or something? I looked through the 'guide' part of the forum but couldn't find anything...

    Cruise control & speed limiter not working, at all...

    Hi these haven't worked since I've owned my car. I read somewhere that it could be due to the brake switch being out (I was also getting the SERV/ESP/ABS problem) but I seem to have fixed that now with adjustment. Basically if I press either button the light comes on the dash, but as soon as I...

    Your experience of SMI Vs. TRW?

    Hi I need to get some inner rod track arms, have been told about the fact there's two different types. Now my car was in the garage getting tracking done today so I told my mechanic to write down which type mine is for me from the rack, he says he couldn't find it anywhere! Said there was a mark...

    Trophy in Southend tonight!

    Going around the roundabout at the end of the A127 (Southend end) going towards Rochford :cool: I was at the traffic lights waiting in my Titanium 182...

    Pressing my brake makes all my interior lights come on!

    Hi I've posted about SERV + ESP + ABS before, but now I'm getting something slightly different. Firstly, the ABS is not coming on for this fault... what happens is when I press my brake pedal, all my internal lights come on! (haven't had a chance to check if they're also coming on outside yet)...

    Sunflower outside Southend Hospital

    Not seen one of those for a while, looked so nice, apart from the bumper needs spraying me thinks! :star:

    What causes steering wheel dis-alignment?

    Not sure if that's the correct wording exactly... What I mean is to go in a straight line, I have to hold my steering wheel at a slight angle, really annoying me! My instant reaction was the tracking, but the car doesn't pull to either side when I release my hands from the steering wheel. I...

    Twisted Metal X

    Not seen a thread about this I don't think? Just ordered it from Tesco's for £30. Loved this on the original Playstation and this new one has been getting good reviews!

    Hotmail logging me off WLM

    Currently running WLM 2009 (Wave 3) on Windows 8 CP, every time I log into Hotmail and read my emails it logs me off WLM! It then instantly tries to re-connect, and fails... then I manually try and it gets in again no problem. I have turned off the feature in WLM that was something like 'log...

    Blue 172 Cup on the A127 & a blue 200 (I think, going by the exhausts, unless it was modified) in Southchurch road tonight :evil:

    5 RS's and 1... McLaren MP4-12C! In Essex today

    Shame it was in that horrible burnt orange colour. Clio 200 - LY with white alloys and a splitter in Hadleigh, looked ridiculously awesome! Clio 172 - Red with single exhaust, also in Hadleigh Megane 225 - Silver, maybe an R26? Around Benfleet/Thundersly I think Clio 182 - Titanium with...

    Notes from test drive on my service...

    Okay picked my car up earlier, this is the first time the car's been to a garage since I bought it, and these were the points raised: Vehicle bump steers badly Very slight play in steering rack Oil leak from sump possibly Slight wheel bearing noise when driving, but unable to hear when jacked...

    V6 on a ramp in Southend!

    Hi saw a silver V6 up on the ramp with no wheels on in Sutton Road Southend, still managed to look awesome though!

    Can you buy the 182 aux tensioner separately?

    Hi... Got my service soon and it's the aux belt/tensioner one. The reason I want to know if it can be purchased separately is because I can get hold of the belt pretty cheap, but if you can't buy the tensioner separately then I'll end up buying a 'kit' and getting another belt with it! If it...

    Carbon fibre gear knob inserts

    Hi trying to decide how to modify parts of my interior, and have seen some carbon fibre gear knob inserts... think they look pretty swish! However I can't find where to buy them? Streamline sell the parts for steering wheels but not the gear knob. Do you think it's worth sending them a...

    Does anyone use Onavo?

    Onavo is an app for saving on data... saw it on The Gadget Show so thought I'd give it a go! (it's free after all) However one thing I can't find the answer to is whether you need to keep this constantly running in the background, or if it's okay to actually shut it down and it will still...

    White Ph1 & blue Ph2 Cup in Southend...

    :cool: White Ph1 was driving near Southend's football stadium, looked nice! Blue Ph2 Cup was parked up around the 'duck' park as we call it.

    ABS/ESP/SERV - independent garage diagnostics?

    Hi so I've got the ABS/ESP/SERV lights coming on every now and again. Tried the brake pedal switch adjustment, and although I wasn't getting the 'clicking' noise that it seems you should get... I pulled it out thus resetting it and it's made no difference (lights come on perfectly when pedal is...

    My mum is scared and prepared...

    To enter a modern world of radios, away from her cassette recording radio. However I have no words of wisdom for her, I really don't know what's out there. Basically atm she uses the above mentioned to record her shows on to cassette. I doubt that CD's ever really took over for this? Perhaps...

    Just about to service... is this what I need?

    Hi I'm about to take on what is basically my 108k mile service, which I believe is the auxiliary belt change? Firstly... can I just confirm that a 'normal' garage should be able to take on this task without mucking it up? Obviously I understand why the cambelt on the Renaultsport's should be...

    ClioSport/old font mats?

    Hi am looking to buy some decent mats finally for my 182... and whereas the official ones are nice, I do find it kinda annoying that they're only available with the new style 'Sport' logo. Is there anywhere that uses the old font? Or even, a place that can provide them with our own lovely...

    Headunit keeps forgetting settings!

    Had this problem before with different cars, I seemed to remember it was a case of changing the red and yellow wires over. However the red seems to go into the yellow wire with this setup!? So I'm a bit stumped any ideas?

    Anyway of sorting stained front lights?

    I mentioned in another thread that my car was mint for it's mileage, and it is! Apart from, the lights, unfortunately. This is what they look like... Is there anything that can be done? I'm guessing it's inside... is there a way of taking them apart and cleaning the inside?
