The availability on genuine brakes from Renault right now is pants, my Mrs had genuine discs and pads for her 2021 Clio on order for 2 months before cancelling - unreal!

your unit is probably designed to replace a media nav system which is more like a traditional head unit behind the screen

£240 for rear discs and pads from Renault parts direct

Best mod you can do to them imo!

Mental IMO, if you had that sort of monthly payment to put out then id do what my Mrs does. buys a brand new Clio DCI every 2 years, she took her first one over 2 years HP with a massive £500+ payment every month, then at 2yrs old traded it, used its value as deposit and took the balance over 2...

As above! Van £220 Donor 182 £500 look on the fiesta ST drivers face... PRICELESS

For me the actual product is fantastic, I've had broadband with them for 20yrs or so and in that time have only had a 2 day outage due to a modem failure. The customer service though is f**king terrible. I've only ever had to use it for issues with price rises but the full process is a...

Why not? Rust is an issue on a lot of 172/182s now, the issue doesn't seem to exist on non RS cars for some reason (possibly the lack of skirts?!)

They always drop to zero soon after the fuel light comes on

ive heard this can be caused by the earth on the gearbox, worth a check...

+1 for these guys, i got a set for my 172 Exclusive and they are lovely!

no extra response and less power likely due to the hot air, all downsides really

probably not available now as this was back in 2005 but i had the old Ktec system! never sounded that great tbh

Fit a standard one, you can't dislike the noise when it doesn't make any.

i assume its a non RS? you could move over to 58mm hubs if coilovers in that fitment are easier to come by?, nice easy swap!

it looks very much like one of these mate...

Have you done the inner track rods? Usually you can't feel any play in them but my god it makes a massive difference when you refresh them. I could bearly keep one of mine on the road above 50mph

This. jumped its timing belt? sounds low on compression if its starting on easy start and you have fuel. assuming it was running fine prior then this started?

the 1.2 is a fairly early car I think on a V reg so I assume the immobiliser just looks for a code it recognises in the key and then gives the green light to the ECU to fire? i know certainly on a PH2 onwards you need to swap everything!

id have offered up the 15s from this but they have been redeployed already onto my daily driver haha!

I didnt! - full 1.2 8v interior/dash/uch etc is all still in place, i put the 1.2 key in and turned the ignition, immobiliser light went out as it should, turned the key and it fired! Tried the same with the 1.6 fob and 1.2 key blade and the immobiliser rapid flashed and wouldn't turn over!

Seen a set of old skool genuine Renault speedlines, I believe from a megane coupe MK1 advertised on eBay as 15" for £300, watched them for a few weeks as I had noticed in the closeup pics they were 16" and finally got an offer of £200 posted accepted! Thoughts?

renault subframes of that generation are crap, id want to remove it, wire wheel it to bits, prep it all and then something heavy duty to protect it, Daniel's raptor paint sounds a good shout! @aldo_87 has previous with these....

Bit of an odd one here. I'm converting an old ph1 1.2 8v over to 1.6 16v. -Both cars are mk2 PH1, but the 1.2 is a very early car, the 1.6 a very late car. -The 1.2 has a fuel return line, so has 3 lines running under the car (fuel, return and i assume tank vent from the carbon canister?) -...

Those ones! they were all the rage back in the day.

My Mrs has THESE , ironically for the opposite side that my daughter sits on, as she knows how to look after things, but generally other peoples kids don't.

Louder when turning right will be the left hand bearing as they get noisier when you load them up when they are starting to fail

That's where I would start, lock the engine at TDC and pull out the cam caps and see how the camshafts are sitting.

Timing out? did you use the proper tools and procedure for setting the cam timing?
