that O ring has nothing to do with keeping oil in the box, its just a dust seal, mine came off years ago and still doesn't leak
£3k for a gripper Mark? Is that the gold plated special one?
have a look and check the big cable is still attached to the alternator, pretty common they rust and snap off, if its still on you need a multimeter across the battery and see what its reading with the engine running, below 13 and the alternator is toast
the front right is supposed to be higher than the rest, where does all the weight sit in the car? = over the front right, hence the difference (driver and engine)
setting them all level (on the struts) especially with 172 cups induces the front left wheel to lock (like they do from factory)...
seen it loads of times, nearly always caused by loose plugs (they have a bloody torque setting on the box but people never use it!) can be done it situ, but its a bit of a t**t/risky
Oh god yeah i borrowed orbis idea, i'm on about previous stuff more than anything! I'm not leaving, just the company, see if anyone copies my flux capacitor conversion ......... ;-)
Our work comes from everywhere, there is life outside the internet!
4th time now my stuff has been ripped off, can't be bothered with the bullshit, our number is easy to get hold of, hence why i'm not on here as a company!
The cambelt kits from Renault are now "updated" funny that eh ;)
you need a new cambelt kit, accept nothing less, they've just wasted their money replacing those parts you mention, that won't fix naff all
He works at the main Renault parts trade hub for the midlands, where all the dealers (and half the specilaists on here) get their stuff, he looks after members
how can you not torque them up correctly? My mum could even do that (supervised ;))
standard engines go bang, £10k race engines go bang, it happens! My V6 gearbox went bang BIG TIME at 20mph outside a school in traffic, it happens!
and that's why i'm not on here anymore (as a company) plus i'm sorry to say there's so much stuff posted that isn't right it creates rumors and damages reputations, we've had 10 reasons why the engine blew up so far and various finger pointing, but no one has mentioned the fact its MOTORSPORT...
