    K Reg is Phase 1 so it shouldn't have any immobiliser problems... Check earths? Try another Phase 1 ECU as a last resort...

    East Anglia Rolling Road Day Pics

    Re: East Anglia Rlling Road Day Pics I brought it 6 months ago with no service history, and it all looked standard so I assumed it was - but I agree something must be done to pull 152 BHP! I think its cams - its running on a 1.8 map at the moment.

    Fix problems before I sell car...

    Its my parents Laguna, therefore getting very cheap, so can afford some repairs. Its already had all four springs replaced and various other suspension componants go. Cheers for your help, looks like Clio's wern't meant to go past 100000 miles...

    Fix problems before I sell car...

    Yeah, now I've written that list out there does seem like quite a bit wrong with it. I didnt think much of it until I'm about to sell it.

    Fix problems before I sell car...

    Buying a MK2 Renault Laguna soon, so need to sell my MK1 Clio, but them are a few problems I would like to fix first. The first problem is when the engine revs past 3000 RPM, it makes the most awful whistling noise, easily heard both inside and outside the car. It doesnt always occur, and...

    Supermarket petrol vs Esso/Shell etc

    A mate of mine who works in a Tesco petrol station said that Tesco fuel contains a high proportion of ethonol, which can burn very inefficiently in some cars. Thats what he said anyway.

    Rear wheel bearings

    Grinding noise coming from back of car, seeing as I have had new brake shoes I am guessing that its one of the rear whell bearings, any way I can test them?

    Engine change...Insurance?

    Yep, but I wasnt sure if changing to a unmodded 1.4 Clio engine would class as a modified car. I was hoping it would just class it as a 1.4 Clio.

    Engine change...Insurance?

    I have a MK1 1.2 Clio, thinking about putting a younger 1.4 engine in it, would my Clio be classed as a modified car and a high group insurance, or would it just increase to the group insurance that a standard 1.4 would be? (I'm with Quinn Direct)

    Hot air feed, MK1

    What does it do exactly? I took the whole air intake system apart and noticed a valve for cold air and hot air...I'm guessing that hot air makes the spring expand and lets more cold in, would taking the valve out and hot air feed improve things? I know its only a 1.2 but I like to squeeze as...

    Nintendo DS Lite...

    Dealextreme takes an age to deliver however. I paid £35 for my R4 off ebay with a 1gb card. I got my EZFlash for dealextreme when it was cheaper, but its only worth it for the web browser. The GBA save games piss me off.

    Slight electrical problem...

    I was cleaning my engine bay on my MK1 today and when I tryed to start the engine nothing happened. Once you have stopped laughing at me could anyone let me know where all the earth points are around the engine? All the electrics in the car have failed but the battery is fine so I'm guessing I...

    Slightly bigger tyres...

    Currently have 195/45 R15 tyres, need a new set on the front and they look pricey. Looking on Black Circles I saw their special offers section, and there are alot of 195/50 R15 going cheaply. Is there a huge height difference between them, 5% of the width of the tyre doesnt sound too much...

    Rounded off Torx bolt.

    Angry. Brought a new set of brake discs and brake pads on ebay for £15, luckiest man in the world. Until I saw what the previous owner done to one of the torx bolts holding the brake pad on. I've tried hammering in a bigger Torx bit, but it just chewed up the bit. I hammered in a flathead bit...

    Uprgrading Keep Fit Manual Windows to Electric Windows on a mk1

    I'm pretty sure alot of the wires for electric windows are already under the dash, unconnected. So plug -n- play sounds proberable.

    H/U cutting out

    My Sony headunit was doing this the other day when the engine was off, I think my subs were taking too much current from the battery and not leaving enough for the headunit to run. My A-Level Physics knowledge tells me a capicator might help.
