Dont they stop making more power around that rpm? Most peoples rolling roads graphs on standard cars show a little dip around that rpm.

When i enter my reg on CompareTheMarkets online insurance quote form, it comes back telling me my car is
Y***NLB : 2001 Renault Megane Coupe Sport Alize, 1998CC Petrol, 2DR, Manual
Anyone know why this is?
The .gov MOT database site says its a 172. as does the .gov road tax site, so im not...
I doubt there is updated maps available unfortunatly. have you considered fitting a tablet behind the oem satnav fascia? Modern satnav and oem looks. :)
I think your best option would be to see a bodyshop and their colour charts.
Alternatively, try your local decorating centre. They should have a RAL card you can take away.
Its not that great underneath atm unfortunatly.
Brakes/shocks/bearings are ready :(
I was itching to have a play yesterday but had little man in the car with me. Lol.
My handles were grubby and sticky. Like some one had wrapped and removed it previously. Baby wipes worked to make the surface clean again. But it took ages.. if your painting you could sand it off I suppose.
a bath in solvent might work but unsure how it may affect the plastic afterwards.
Got this fixed via RemoteKey.Co.uk.
ordered the part friday afternoon. Received saturday lunch. Brilliant service.
Car fired up first time. One happy customer. :)

If...
the hole next to the throttle body is also filled with the gunky oil (is this the pcv valve?)
If it ran nicely after cleaning this. Is it not possible it has gunked up again? Im no mechanic by all means but id look at that again.

Orange mirror...
id say its getting too much fuel at idle.
id also be tempted to inspect the o2 sensor. Perhaps its giving an incorrect reading and the car is adjusting the fuel to match.
has your overall mpg gone down recently?
You can stream anything to xbox from your android phone/tablet/windows pc with android emulator with an app called "skifta" , via your home wifi network. Im not sure if its still available on Playstore. But you can download the .apk easily from other sources Via your device browser.
