I'd have gone for the full fat with the pack but you made your choice based on what you could its not like the extras add any weight realistically.

As said they cannot fail the car on not having washer jets although you should have them.

Just lock the car with the key. Easy to do Open the passenger door (or drivers if you have one with a lock on it ie not cups and onwards cars) then press the centeral locking button (locks the boot and other door as such. Then close the door and lock that with the key and hey presto the cars...

Yep not much extra to fit cams when cambelts being done. Cambvelts got to be chnaged to do cams so migh as well kill both at once.

172 has a 4 into 1 manifold. Nope cat fitment not that simple from memory To get a 182 manifold onto a 172 you use a 182 cat usualy and cut it to fit the 172 exhast pipe yes it is noticable the lighter wheels give a huge reduction in unsprung mass so the suspension reponds to change better.

I'm sure there a member on here with a Cup racer or works for a tea and they should be quicker even without T/bs thanks to there gearbox particulay round a track.

The boost gives you air power depend how much fuel you put into the air put to much in and you get black smoke ie unburned fuel so you up the boost. Stock boost levels will with the right injectors set run way more power than your running.

You could but turbo a 1.2 you could maybe get 150hp and its not as reliablt or cheap as a 172 so why bother. Theres cams out for it though bodies cna be made for there chargers you can buy turbo use the one the Vauxhall tunning compnay use etc as thats sized well.

Thats down to mapping though. Mike hadn't srted on the tunning potentail though there loads could be done but its very expensive vs a VAG engine power. How coem your binnign the PAS rack or least not using an electric one? Are you keeping the air con etc what about the wiring cutom made...

Stock ECU could be remapped but realy since it only holds one map you'd be best IMo going stand alone so you can have one map for normal fuel one for E85 as such.

They always do that.

Depends what wheel you use a good supplier will tell you you ned adapters though usualy they come with the right kit No idea on recomendations I like and only use the standard one. Airbags will be a problem have a read here how to stop the light...

You will find all of them will be safe. No idea on the max pressure but at idle it should read 1 bar and at 3k 3 bar.

If your swoping the whole engine etc into a car with the same ngine ie 172 engine into a 172 then there no issue with imobiliser etc.

Fuel is more important in a diesel in a petrol boost means power in a diesel boost just mean air fuel means power. Sounds like the mapper need to adjust the map where did you go?

105NM it should be done to. Won't mess it up going over or under but its good practice don't bodge anything

Do a search trough the forum pmurry had this issue on a car from memory now the remap was requesting more boost or somthing and caused a propblem a bit like this. Otherwsie its loom trouble but the mapping due to its coincidence timing is IMO the issue. You don't need more boost annway.

There are compnaies who can remove the imobiliser codes from the car. IMO forget it it can be a lot of hastle only worth it if its sold to someone who is going ie a valver trnaplnat and wants the car stand alone. The barrel doens't control anything.

The new sensor is £25 then the new loom is £25 Fitments about half an hours labour so there not that cheap then gain they most likly have a 1 hour minimum charge. Fitments not difficult though if you have the knowedge or anopther local good garage.

Original were Bosch RFC 50 LZ 2E

1.4 and 1.6 exhaust (not the 1.2 though) are the same from memory.

Its about an hours labour at a garaeg with lifts etc say 2 if you don't ie diy etc. Then just got to take accoutn of labour rates.

Glad to find out it all worked out in the end. A guide would be handy with pics etc I've meant to write a proper one but never manged to get motivated enough

Try renault specilaist breakers in accrington (google the number) ask for matt.

Contact a garage who sells cars with there plans and check. You'd I'd imagine have to contact them to check they will autorite payment before starting work at a garage incase its a bad rep/expensive garage.

I woulnd't ever buy one there few ehich are worth it at all. To many expclusions and exceptions etc.

Strip it all down the seals probably broken.

If you've checked the forum then you'd know firstly to check the red imobiliser light is going off.

Yep they are IMO the cause of the 182 brake problem with sliders sticking and fluid needing chnaging so much. Yep turini or the dynamic wheels (15's though) or the 172 wheels are a better idea much better at letting the brakes cool aftermarkets there some good stuff out difficult to get any...

Why post if you don't know what your on about? Remoarks like that are going to ake the owner/the person your telling look right stupid when they go blazing into the garage clamining to know better than he mechanic and that the mecanics trying to rip you of. As said in the other thread. the...
