Have you checked the relays are working/being controlled? CAN Network testing okay?

I think it needs more boost! Brilliant car, such a giggle to be in.

I would love a standard Spider but not at £20-25k. This has had some really nice work done but the exterior style isn't to my taste.

I assume you've checked that the brake discs & pads are in perfect condition and that each calliper is working correctly. Has it been on a brake tester yet to measure the actual braking forces? Dead travel seems to suggest that you maybe have air in the system, the pads may be low or that the...

Gearbox is a copper crush type washer. Sump is a bonded washer

I don't "do" welding I'm afraid chap... Because being honest, I can't! I can paint it, install it and get it welded in for you but I'd have to price it up and it wouldn't be a drive in and wait job

Hard to say for sure i'm afraid as I don't know what's wrong with it but i'd say no more than 2hrs labour, so £80+VAT If you wanted to book in though, drop me a line via our website and i'll get you in fella - www.diamondmotors.co.uk Mick

So have you done anything to it?

Agreed, they're not CDS tubing but we ran similar spec cages in junior grass track when I was much much younger and having put a Mini nose to boot with one I can confirm they will do the job. You need to be sure that spreader plates are used though. The standard crash structure is pretty decent...

For one, it seems to have a minor misfire! Secondly, between the car being fine and this occurring, have you done anything to it?

Any cheap jack will do you but the Costco unit gets such good reviews because of its lift capacity, aluminum construction to make it lightweight and most importantly, its low access capability. The cheaper jacks tend to be quite high and struggle to get under some cars on Eibachs.

If they've been done on Clip Ash then you either have the overall configuration wrong OR there has been a knock which has triggered one of the many lines to fire. Mick

The "Sensor" and the "Target" aren't the same thing Dan. You've switched targets but this may not be the fault. You really need to scope the channel for that wheel and look at the waveform it generates as a DMM will be no good unless it can graph the numerical output or you are some kind of...

In that case, bring me your 6 and i'll run her for you. In exchange you can run my 172 Cup... far cheaper to run lol

But an M3 doesn't get you noticed like this does I bet. I guess it depends on what you want though... It is yours after all hehehe

Possibly a sensor fault thenBut check the target first.

Oh and the ABS module takes all four speed signals and create an average which it outputs to the INSTRUMENTS via the ECU.

Ideally you need to graph the wheel speed sensor signals to spot errors as numerical values change so fast you struggle to see fluctuations (unless they're cometely fekked). If one wheel has an obvious fault then start by counting the teeth on the target to make sure they're the same, paying...

A flashing MIL is what we call a Level 2 fault which means it has potential to damage the CAT. Normally due to an injector(s) but can also be caused by poor ignition due to faulty lead(s). Your best bet is to take the car to somewhere armed with CLIP. From here they can run a proper misfire...

Remember that BC springs are factory pre-loaded so you don't adjust ride height by altering the compression on the spring with the upper collars, this changes the spring rate on each corner. Set the lower collars so they're just taking the springs and then use the bottom collar near the hub to...

Knowing Renault, there will have been a significant cost saving somewhere.

Correct, that's the "new" old style rear idler pulley, not the tensioner

I'd want to see the live data/misfire detection analysis to. Sounds ignition based though.

Bingo! Brake pedal switch is not faulty but it is incorrectly setup. There's such ha finesse to doing it and it's frustrating but thankfully we now have a completely different system on the newer vehicles so it's not an issue anymore. To be honest, it was only ever an issue on the last of the...

The brake pedal switch is actually two switches in a single assembly. One is responsible for tuning on/off the actual brake lights. The other is a throwback to the ECU which is used to reduce power output under braking and to turn off cruise control (if active/applicable). Both switches need to...

Pretty button yes but also pain in the arse. Just pin the standard buttons somewhere that's not on the wheel... column surround for example

It's because Josh is now VAT Registered and so, he has to charge 20% It happens to us all I'm afraid and it's good to see Cooksport Ltd doing well. Let's be honest, £144 for a set of springs is still a great deal considering they're far from s**t.

From memory the connection is slightly different between the X65 and X85 but I believe the switches work. Don't use the Megane III items as they are completely different. Personally, when I put cruise on WZG I cable tied my standard wheel buttons to my Oreca dished wheel.... It didn't look...

But he hasn't got a ph1 so your point is kind of irrelevant. On a Ph2 it will have an upstream and a downstream sensor so unless the ECU is recoded to that of a single sensor setup, the MIL will illuminate.

You'll get a bit more power and economy from a good remap alone. Personally, I don't rate de-CAT'n these cars. Cost Vs Benefits just isn't worth it IMO. Then it brings on the MIL periodically which is just annoying when it happens 3 out of 5 days in the week. Mick
