I am still hosting the calculator. Pity so many are only signing up just to enquire their radio code though. If you have a PC - here is a direct and no nonsense link to the file.

I must say your mates car looks class! Thanks for putting pics up. That's right, Gary also provided me with my build#. I've got loads of pictures, both good and ugly, If you can drop me a PM with email, I'll send some over. Here's one of the ugly, June 2012 after a standing a year outside...

Hey Daniel It is possible to get the build number for these from RSOC. VPH is build #398, one of the early ones from 1991 although not registered until a year later, you probably know - but Ford struggled to sell them, so think building this style stopped in 1992 and they re-did the styling -...

I think it's probably for the tyre inflation canister (supplied with the 182), that is what always was (is) in mine.

Thanks for the appreciative comments guys. RS2K MK5's are getting a bit thin on the ground now, most have rusted away, glad we saved her even if circumstances were not good. Other than Kent cams and loads of noise - it's more or less standard, and certainly goes well despite the 125k+ and long...

Thought I would share a recent set from Ragley Hall Classic Show May 2015 - our restored MK5 RS2000 third outing. The old girl got a nice surprize 'best in class' (>1980's Saloons), I fell over with glee.

After a long search - I ended up sourcing some at a breakers, I think the problem is that they are supplied part of a front end 'repair' kit from Renault, so you have to buy the whole kit to replace them.

Great, I'm often out that way but not always in the Clio, so may spot you again. Welcome to the site BTW.

It's not unusual. I think if you somewhat delay locking with remote after you have switched off the ignition and shut the door, it won't beep, mine has always done two beeps, unless locking with remote is delayed by about 1 minute, never timed it exactly though - but try it. It's as though it's...

Did it stop working suddenly? I would check again for the fuses and there is also a relay which are always suspect, it may be in the main fuse box on n/s engine compartment. Not sure about it, but the Clio II manual suggest that it's F34 (20A) for the motor, there is also F6 (10A) which is fuse...

I know it's obvious, but have you also checked the fuse? You're right, shorting 1 & 5 on the plug should get the heater fan running.

If it's gone through you'll need to cut out bad and weld, but it looks like just surface rust, just clean it back to bare metal and use some etch primer or zinc primer. You could even just wire brush it to remove and flaky stuff and use some rust converter - I use Loctite rust preventer 7503 -...

I would drop that original idea, it's expensive and probably find you will be paying import duties when it arrives from the States too. Most(all?) generic OBD2 readers will only diagnose engine related problems on the Clio.

Pulled out behind me on 'rabbit run' near Ludstone about 8AM, you (eventually) caught up my shopping trolley by Royal Oak then turned for Wolverhampton. Car looked very purposeful though, first blue one seen around.

Post a picture up of your radio ID label!

I use 87W on front and 83V on rear, the fronts carry more weight and have to work harder, thus the 87W having slightly stiffer sidewalls, I think its a good combination. I seem to remember that this was the plan with the original Exalto. I never use the car in anger, but it sticks like glue at...

Purchased and fitted one a month ago, about that price and has been OK so far. I think 'cos of the price differential it's worth the risk, even if temporary. I used this seller...

Thanks Gav. Escort is on SORN till May, but will get both cars out for a photo shoot then, and will get some up here.

I think it is locked because you had too many attempts Leave it switched on for 30min or so, the "ERROR" should clear eventually.

Here you go Gavin 7541

Thanks Guysy I'm planning much more driving in 2015!

Celebrating the old girl passing the MOT, so a bit of an update on what has been happening since the last update. Well 2014 was a bit hectic and a serious drain on resources, the addition of a new garage extension and some considerable mess during the summer months, and together with getting...

The price dropped down to around £32 in 2014, doesn't seem to be the case now though.

There are two different speed ratings on PS3s, I think you will see they have 83V and 87W rating, you should be quite safe on the 83V (149MPH IIRC) I use 87W on front and 83V on rear, the 87W have slightly stiffer sidewalls and are good for more MPH. I think the 'ZR' is and older type of rating...

Does your radio serial begin with "M"?

You'd never settle that with discussion, if it is such an itch, get down to Santa Pod and put them against a stop watch and nobody can argue. IMHO does it really matter in the real world?
