    Shared Ownership of a car

    I've done it, bailed after only a few months. Had different ideas about the modifications we wanted to do for tracking it. Bought my own, much happier.

    sburrell's ph1 172 track project (maybe)

    Brilliant idea to do a shall swap. I'd be tempted to do the same if a cup shell and cage came up one day. Would you not be better trying to buy a cup subframe? No-one ever buys parts like that so they much be cheap as chips. Postage would be the main killer. I hammerited by dci subframe when I...

    Clip from ebay

    Fake. Works no problems. nope. You can change settings on one though. Auto wipers, RAID etc.

    Clip from ebay

    Bought mine two years ago. Saved me hundred in bills. You can configure airbags easily with them but be careful as you can also screw up a lot of stuff if you don't know what you're doing. I wiped my ecu file once ;)

    Dci 80 starting issues - low idle etc

    Common low fuel pressure symptoms. When the idle increases there's likely a dash light showing. Dampness around the injector would be the injector seal, that affects cylinder pressure. Copper washer on the bottom of the injector may have gone. Starting issues is likely to be a fuel system...

    NEWBIE - Water Issues - Footwells - Clio DCi

    I guarantee this is the sunroof leaking. I've posted on this before somewhere.

    South East Christmas Night Out - 5th Dec - London

    go to the city, have a few drinks in tower 42 (city social), head to madisons for a bit, then somewhere filthy like roadhouse in covent garden and then you can decide the rest depending on what a crazy amount you've spent.

    Write off?

    Only for total losses. Repaired a handful of cars in my time. That too

    Anyone had any experience with these guys??

    No! But.... I have a good friend who does a lot of high end cars so may be worth a buzz. The work he does is insanely good. The 106 gti he used to have looked like brand new and things have only got better and better since. https://www.facebook.com/DetailDriven2014/?fref=ts Site will be running...

    Cruise control. WONT turn off! Cars possessed.

    cruise doesn't work below 30kmh, 18 mph

    Write off?

    I've seen some impressive things come out with a miracle pull but nothing quite like that. Would be new 1/4 time me thinks.

    Few K to sort that properly.

    172 Climate control sensor wiring question - HELP

    https://www.dropbox.com/sh/3kxhuvy1wjm6bsb/AACgaRVter_Qe36kcQv-25AGa?dl=0 everything you need in there. I believe 418 is the fan. Goes through the roof loom which runs up the left hand pillar.

    Backwards rep.

    my car had 172 running gear for a while and it looked a lot lower than a standard clio and it was noticeably wider at the front. That would be the only tell tale though.

    Pictures of your looped rack for EPAS. What fittings have you used?

    I've got a full plug set at home and the copper loop for anyone looking to do this. It's a mismatch of 3 brass bungs, 1 lambda bung and a home made loop but it worked perfectly. Don't know what it's worth so offers if anyone is interested.

    Fuel pump won't run with 12v from car, but does from external power.

    Not a bad earth! Sorted this problem today. Spent a while looking at the wiring diagrams and found that pin 3 of the coil shares the same 12v as the feed for the fuel pump. When both plugs were disconnected there was 4v at the coil pin and 3.9v at the pump. As soon as you connected either of the...

    Knock sensor

    You've posted in the wrong section but a knock sensor is generally bolted to the block and relatively easy to assess. Think it's just one nut.

    What address do you use if you own multiple cars in different locations?

    Neil, I've already got my track car with you guys. Got any more details on the dual policy that I could potentially include my daily on?

    Advice on buying a DCI clio

    Had my dci for the last 50k of mainly flat out motorway driving and it's been absolutely trumps. At 154k it's now giving up the ghost, the engine is using oil and the car doesn't start without easy start. Make sure you check for fuel pump failure by being at 1500 revs and then flooring it in...

    Fuel pump won't run with 12v from car, but does from external power.

    Evening chaps, I've now got this car. Spent a bit of time looking at it and the pump. As said before the pump works when on an independent power source. When you turn the ignition on there is 12v between the live and ground on the plug. As soon as you plug the pump in the 12v dies almost...

    Who codes in C#? Where do I start to learn

    Yeah that's the one! I haven't actually had time to look into this properly but I've had someone kindly set me up a PC with an SQL server and basic application so I can get to grips. I did watch a touch of the video and wrote the standard "hello world" application with it.

    Strange and very annoying non starty issue

    That's the alarm. You can probably see it's actually stuck on the side as they were all installed when imported.
