I'm planning on buying both my Dad and my Dad in law 1 cleaning product for their car for christmas. There are just so many to choose from I'm after people experiences of each.
For my Dad. He's after something to clean the plastics on the inside of his 3 series that can preferably be applied by...
Now I know there are loads of threads about knocking and it being the top mounts.
I have this clonk in the DCI when going over bumps at any speed above about 10. In other threads I've read about it being when you're on full lock etc but nothing about speed.
ARB bushes and links are new.
Is...
As I now seem to spend most of my life driving here there and everywhere I'm after a cheap (less than a tenner) travel mug which fits perfectly in the clio cup holder and is as big as possible. I love tea but driving with a normal travel mug in my lap is a little inconvenient at times.
Having...
In the DCI at the moment I have no on board computer. I've done a search and it seems people say "you don't have it"
Of course the ECU support this data as other higher spec cars of the same age have this facility.
What do I need to do to get it? Can I just change the stalk or is it the dash...

I'd just be popping in a new box personally.
Also using the photos from the original PH ad!
Crucify me if this is the wrong section but this forum is full of knowledge.
Currently looking at one of my familys fiat 500. It has a horrible loud wuring noise whilst driving. It's not rev related and the noise gets louder the faster you go.
Here's a little video. I've checked and can't see...
This will need doing shortly on Claude.
Heard they have a free spinning crank (or something). What does this mean to me when changing the belt. I know all the plastic guards need removing, aux belt etc.
Anyone done one of these and know a rough method and how long it would take.
Also what...
The DCI's middle brake light isn't lighting up when the peddle is pressed. The other 2 in the clusters are fine.
Would this fail and MOT as it's coming up next week and I'm snowed under.
Thankfully I've managed to save enough to keep the 182 whilst I go to uni.
I'll be starting to strip the car this week to make it race car and want to be as extreme as possible with no cost involvement at this point. I'm swayed to be slightly cautious though as the car might still need to pass...
Saw a fair number of clios but no photos I'm affraid
a 1.2 covered is CSS stickers up the windscreen.
non sport with HIDs
2 x 172 cups
1 LY 182 FF
1 silver 182 standard
1 LY ph2 V6
1 black track spec 182 with bimarcos in on oz f1's
1 monaco on 2118's
I think that's it. My 182 was filthy
My friends 172 outer boots have split. Whats the best place to get this done local to me? Spoke to ren7oaks, £125 plus vat.
Sounds pretty reasonable to me but thought I'd ask around.
Need them done by next Friday.
Thought I'd post up about a new toy I got in the post yesterday. It's the new Parksafe PSDVR009. For those who read autoexpress you may have seen int advertised.
Supposed to be over £150 when I spoke to the lad on the phone but a misprint sees it down to £99.
I'm sure most folk have seen...
Took the water pump off today and found this. The missing fin is no where to be seen. Not in the pipes, rad or as far as I can venture into the block. I'm mainly concerned about it getting back into the new pump and shredding it and reducing flow.
What would you do?
Whilst enjoying the peace and quiet of the bathroom throne I read an interesting article in auto express about Techron fuel additive. Now I normally think these things do very little as I have never noticed any difference after a bottle of redex. This one has had an independent test carried out...
Odd question and I imagine no one has any experience of this.
Hypothetically if I broke my 182 at the end of the year would I be able to transfer the interior loom, alarm and climate control into the DCI pov spec.
I'm most interested in the cruise control function as my DCI doesn't have the...
I've done a search and can't find anyone with my exhaust who's done this.
Got a ktec/janspeed cat back with decat. Am I likely to fail that 102db limit tonight or shall I take my cat just incase I need to wack it on!
TIA chaps
Another problem! third this week.
I've got a flashing eml light, the one below the cruise control light.
It's only does it occasionally, mainly when on idle but also sometimes does it when driving along, could be at any speed. Usually stays on for about 30 seconds before going off.
New coil...
Another blasted noise.
No pas or a/c installed. Alternator? Just want to confirm before I buy another one!

Had this problem for some time now. Thought the recent discs and ducting would resolve it. I've only driven up and down my road a couple of times and the marks have come up again.
On both of my discs in exactly the same places. Discs are Brembo HC's and pads are RC5+
On my previous discs I had...
Silly clio!
If you don't know i've done quite a heap of work on the clio recently to get her up to scratch for the summer.
Now I've got this noise. Its not the carbon canister as it's been removed (valve has been unplugged to test). It's not dephaser as it's brand new.
Doesn't do it when I...
Roight here goes as I'm terribly bored
I bought my little 182 back in november, second one I've had and this one isn't a dog.
Unfortunately I can't take credit for the creation, that'd be Mullybaby.
Bits before I got it
Trimmed s/wheel
brembo discs and rc5+ fronts
