    iPhone 6 thread.

    When I was buying my MBP my wife showing her work ID would've gotten me 6% discount. Student discount worked out around 18%. I don't know if that is a set/standard scale though as I'm certain Apple give more when you spend more.

    iPhone 6 thread.

    The cost of the handsets/devices now it's no wonder. I am excited to see how Apple price these new devices. Samsung are pretty high considering the use of cheaper materials so will Apple price higher because they can or will they sustain/match the current 5S kind of area to try and win back...

    New Coilovers for Track Only, advice please

    I'm having a setup made for my R19 - I loved them that much!

    iPhone 6 thread.

    I love the new design myself but I can't understand for the life of me why the designers left the camera protruding from the back case.

    Gurgling on startup! Head gasket? Water Pump?

    Check the stat housing and water pump for leaks first then run a pressure test on the reservoir.

    Gurgling on startup! Head gasket? Water Pump?

    I take it the coolant level is low to? Check for a leaking water pump first. I've personally never changed a HG on a D4F ever.

    Work Shop Days - Free Help

    Gentleman's agreements and people saying "If I have an accident" or "If I break something/hurt myself I won't take action" but you need to cover yourself fella if only from accidental damage to important tools that you need every day. I was going to rent out my 2.5T screw lift for DIY servicing...

    Are you sure we can not do a brunette Lithuanian lass in a nice thong/bra set? LoLz

    Ticking noise?

    Impossible to say without seeing but I'd check the aux belt run/alternator. Seems to be a common failure at the minute

    Clio Timing Chain??

    But, and i'm playing Devils advocate here, when did you hear of a timing belt failing within its service interval that wasn't caused by another factor (such as foreign object damage, contamination or component failure)? Issues like this can and do happen leading to the demise of a drive chain...

    Don't joke, there's a Demon inside me and we dropped over a grand on my stag do (That was a good night hehehe)

    Coilovers

    I was always extremely happy with it and I had so much fun in that car. Truth is though the car was far more capable than me pedalling it... as demonstrated by its current owner below: I also did a lot of research before buying the BC's and they made most sense to me on paper for the money. I...

    Coilovers

    I never had any problems with my BC's which come with a choice of spring rates, adjustable damping and can even be re-chambered for track only applications. I'm even running a set on my 19 because they're that good

    Clio Timing Chain??

    As above, the oil pump is chain driven on the F4R
  17. MicKPM

    Clio Timing Chain??

    Completely new design - M4R is an RNA joint developed modular platform for use across the two brands (which are essentially the same chassis anyway). The F4R is getting on a bit now but why produce two 2.0 16v units at twice the cost for everything when one saves time and money all round.

    Clio Timing Chain??

    No, the 200T EDC is the Clio IV RS Correct

    Clio Timing Chain??

    The 197/200 runs the F4R not the M4R. The GT 138 is chain driven yes as it runs the M4R

    The PlayStation 4 Thread.

    That looks great but I like to see how they 'feel' before I buy. I loved the PGR series and then tried Forza which I found to be a backward step (I couldn't get any feel for speed in Forza without the driver aids). One thing Ghosts is great for though is slam the disc in and jump into a game, fast.

    The PlayStation 4 Thread.

    I made the jump to Sony from MS myself for the PS4 and love it (currently on The Last of Us Remastered). My only negative/hate is the lack of titles out for it right now. I'm sick of Ghosts, BF4 is just terrible (generally as a game) and I'm screaming out for a good driver game. The future is...

    Leaking sunroof?

    291 is a good shout - Do not use Tigerseal or similar UPOL though as it'll never leak but it'll also never come out the aperture again... ever!

    Help air con problems

    Yeah that is likely to be PAG with UV dye leaking from the compressor but you may have other leaks to so it would be prudent to fully inspect the system. Always replace the seals to... always!

    Help air con problems

    The price for a decent UV lamp is silly mate. Seriously, go see someone with the kit already. Whoever recharged it should've banged a shot in anyway just in case this happens.

    Clio Timing Chain??

    IIRC the 2.0 16v Clio III '140 uses the M4R which is chain driven.

    Help air con problems

    You will need a pair of "happy glasses" to as UV dyes don't show up under a lamp to the naked eye (any yellow filter will do to look thru).

    2004 clio 1.2 16v multiple faults caused by ?

    Yep and the above tells you quite clearly what's actually not happening and hints at what is needed to fix it. Google CLIP training and learn to use the tools properly ;-) I'll give you a subtle hint... the comms line between the UCH and ECU is not allowing the CAN signals thru hence the solid...

    Leaking sunroof?

    Check the drains and if they're not blocked pull the headlining down, soak roof and look for water ingress. Of its passing the frame the roof will need removing, stripping of old sealant and resealing.
