Re: Z4 - Perfect No More (But it's being fixed so it's all OK) Was the car shunted at all? as if it moved any distance may be worth getting new tyres all round as well, as if you think about it, the car moved whiled handbrake on and in gear i presume? thus when it moved may cause a flat spot on...

All it is - Can of tyre weld!! So if there is none either it's been swiped or used!

Looks good that - After the emergency phone call for a jack - me thinking you had burst something underneath the car or it had fallen of the scissor jack or something :-P

Yeah i ordered another set and rocked up this morning, so there all done now, much better looking :)

Yeah there in the same place.

I roughly get 24 - 26mpg, if i wanted economy i would get a nasty tractor diesel. But instead i have a 197 and enjoy driving it, i wouldn't have got a hot hatch if i were concerned about MPG.

How far done the line / or not with this ;)

It was a Kenwood job, i dont really like the slot on the front of the units and the Kenwood didn't, full unit opened to put a CD/DVD in. As you can see it goes one step back so sits vertical - sold that and got a pioneer after that. IMO it finishes the dash off having a Double Din unit. Also...

I think what he means is that they have upgraded everything but, and that it aint up to the job of cooling the water down

All i had done to mine, well had a full boot install too - Sorry for hi-jacking the thread......

If the box has been done its happy days, and even if it goes should be covered under a recall. I looked very closely into this too, was close to getting a full Ibiza Cupra R - had everything, but never, just left the engine well alone, there not to bad in the country roads these, as said - get...

I'd personally report it to the police and to your insurance company, at the end of the day, it may take weeks to sort something out etc, and she also has failed to report an accident etc. Its people like this that make my blood boil as it happened to me, something hit the rear of my car and...

Exactly what i was gonna say, used to have a wee polo, i'll have a look for a pic, the pedal boxes are very common, and when you see why its a daft design, even the new one they put in aint much better, just a little bit of extra weld. The part its self is £30 from VW - but the labour is the...

I'm going f**king mad, theres one very similar over there lol

That is unreal, bet it sounds immense aswell! They eight trumpets at full chat - Oft!!

Seen this on DW, good wee turn around!

And i would then pay this man to do it, so you know its done right first time!!

The best impartial place to take your car is a council depot test centre, they charge the full whack (well in Edinburgh they do) but they dont have any incentive to fail your car etc as they can not carry out the repair. so they can only test it.

You beat me to it Gally, Sure it'll be sorted in a short while :approve:

As above - cut the bolt off and jobs a good one!

If you want a hand Marc come round one day or at weekend?

Wouldn't even bother with them - the warranty they gave you, is it there own one etc? and if it is read their T&C's - But def get Renault UK involved!!

As said - give Renault UK a call, there is loads of 197's with the same problems so they cant turn round and say they dont know nowt is wrong with them! nothing to lose really.

As said Marc, and as above - check all the wires going into the plug are good and if you can trace the wire round and check the other end!
