After my earlier diagnostics check I have been out in the car and burnt the rest of the momentum 99 off, filled it to tue brim with v power and gone for another blast resetting the trip computer. For some bizarre reason I am now getting 32 to 35 MPG. I can't believe how much difference the v...

Been out in mine now and it's getting 25.7 :(

Are you going to run your Clio dan?

195/45/15 Sort of gives it away.

loads of performance tyres in that size, 195 / 45 / 15 is what most of the saxos and 106's use. my VTS had this size yokohama s drives on and i thought they were a good tyre

i had my diagnostics machine on it this morning. when watching the live data i am getting readings from the pre cat lambda but i am not getting a reading from the post cat lambda. could this be whats causing the low MPG's? i know that the first lambda is in a closed loop control system and...

thanks, i am going to look at getting a new lambda then. tbh its worth a try, they arnt expensive to replace IIRC

my MPG has dropped to about 25 just recently. i dont know if its down to trying another fuel or not. what fuel do you use?

Reminds me of the fake tial waste gates that were knocking about last year.

Thanks for the info Fred. :)

I would of thought there would be some copy right infringement on that? Gsf gave me 2 prices on the front wheel bearings. £19 plus vat for some and they said they also stocked a better item that was £29 + vat. I take it neither of these are the ones you are taking about Fred?

That's not a very long life span tbh

Post 5# I though it was a straight forward job, and that most wheel bearings will be a very similar design so it wouldn't matted if they were genuine or not. Interesting...

Buy cheap, buy twice.

Thank you.

Thank you for the replies. I rang a local parts place today and for some bizarre reason they told me it was a massive job and only genuine bits were to be used. I wanted to know if he was telling the truth or not

Nice try at a cover up there...

And thats it? Do Renault wheel bearings have to be used or can I buy them from the likes of GSF etc?

Lol at fiesta ST. In standard form they are quite a slow car. O to 60 in about 8 seconds IIRC if that. They are only 150hp remember

Nice one John. Anyone else fancy it? All are welcome

Hello. My front wheel bearings need replacing in my 182. I have had a search and not found much info on the fronts. Is it a big job to change the front wheel bearings? Non genuine replacements ok to use? Thank you

Can anyone tell me the name of the photo app where you take a 3d picture of a room by holding the phone and spinning? This app would be very useful for work but I don't know the name of it. Does anyone have this app? Thanks

Very good read that. I need to get my front end painted like you do every year. I don't trust to leave the car with a body shop though.

Anything welcome, as long as it's 2wd. The more the merrier tbh. Ricky p is a maybe, he is moving units in October so he has said he will make it down if he gets chance.

This very same app told me that my 85hp van did 0 to 60 in 7 seconds. I was a little doubtful tbh
