Very nice car mate, Much better without the stripes imo. Needs an exhaust and a bit of colour text on those badges for me personally.

Now the warm weathers kicked in, When putting it into first or second the gear lever has a bit of a squeek, I think its just something a bit ungreased? Ive put some grease onto the ball at the bottom of the gearstick and its slightly better. Any other suggestions? Gear oil is topped...

Absolute p**n.

Yeah i think i will ask my garage for a price, I might need to do the other side but not unless it fails atm.

Anyone for the torque wrench, Needs to go up to 275nm...

Anybody reccomend a torque wrench that can do the job? The only thing im missing, Will make this job exspensive tbh.. How much would a garage charge to do the job?

Cheers Fred, Appreciated. Just got to find some money for a torque wrench now, Would be a cheap job otherwise !!

Cheers Fred, Being a newb i thought the drive end with the teeth was the bit that goes into the box was what needed to come out, but i understand now i can just leave that in and do have the disk and hub nut off. I haven't counted the teeth, But they where close together so im guessing 44...

PM'd.. Asked Fred on how to do the procedure basically. Anyone else give me brief guide? Can it be done without taking the drive shaft out?

After a bit of reading the drive shaft doesnt need to come out? http://www.renaultforums.co.uk/showthread.php?t=80430&page=3 And the ring has 44 teeth?

So after high speeds, And abs and serv light coming on, I whipped the drivers side wheel off, The ring is rusty, Moves easily and is cracked. I haven't checked the passenger side yet, But i *think* Touch wood its ok, That can be changed at a later date anyway. Can someone link me or PM me...

Slipping? My clutch was just high biting untill i hit a pot hole and it finished it off. £295 private job by a Renault mechanic, Evenings work.

Because its fine without the crush boxes looks wise, Its just safety wise im asking, I just want to know if the non sport crush boxes DO fit in the sport before i whip it off and lose half an hour of my life?. Only took me 20 mins to change them over, But was a bit baffed about the crush boxes...

Also if anyone can advise Ben (and me for the future) Is it worth getting some exhaust silicone to reduce any chance of blowing? Ive read the paste crap just crumbles off.

You have to drop the rear axle by undoing the 2 rear shocks then dropping the axle down first dont you? Then undo the 2 bolts i think and wiggle the system off, After getting the hanger mounts off. Will be doing this when i find a second hand ktec, Otherwise im leaving it.

I mean my non sport has crush boxes but the sport rear bumper came without them, So i fitted the sport bumper without them and im now worrying that if i have a rear impact that there's nothing to absorb some of the energy.. And if it was important to have them there or not bother. Cheers...

The crush boxes that came out of my non sport bumper... Didn't seem.. I didn't look all that properly, to fit on the sport bumper. I want to know if sport crush boxes are there (im guessing they are, Or if my non sport ones will fit?) They absorb some energy of a rear crash don't they?

Cracking tune and vid.

Nice pics as always Derelict.

Lovely motor, Liking my blue velvet sample pot too.

Very nice !

Dont park close to people, It seems no one can hold there doors when getting out of cars...

On a non sport do the outers need to be taken back off to do the inners?

Did my outer ARB bushes, Made a big difference, Wasnt as bad as everyone said either, Didnt look at the middle ones though, Will have a gander soon.

Looks good and they will settle some more, Yeah i gave mine a few speedbumps, Although you cant fecking escape the b******s round here !

Just had some rain today, Works amazingly, Water just slides off, Had a bit of trouble with excess haze but was solved with IPA and buffing... More my fault due to not knowing how much "excess" to take off... Which i now know once the stuff has cured you can buff and buff with residue remover...

I loved watching that, Fantastic video.

I wouldn't bother, Just keep the lenses clean, As i read the jets just create lots of unwanted watermarks along the car.

Ive only had the ABS + serv light on once, That was high speed... well what you can do in a 1.2... I only have abs light when the battery is on then off when the engines off which i understand is normal starting procedure. Im still having the ABS kicking in unnecessarily though, Need to get my...

Also the skoda one is good for 15 odd but not fat enough for a non sport imo... Pug one ive linked is quite fat.
