It was nice to finally put some names to faces! Great day had all round, first time on track has definitely got me wanting more! Back in the campsite now ready to do it all again tomorrow :up:
@chris blue was nice chatting to you mate, hope your track session went well
Hit a pigeon at roughly 90 so there's a nice bowl in the bonnet at the moment, Hopefully getting it sorted this weekend, needs a bloody good clean too, not been washed since about end of may?
Too late to make last minute decisions?
Cars a piece of sh*t in comparison to some on here so probably wouldn't park on stand, but anyone driving from Norwich ish way?
No idea if there's any tickets left not even looked yet, last minute decisions eh 😂
All standard suspension at the mo, was thinking of having a fiddle with that!
Its also not used for commuting ever, I have a work van for that, it's just taken out in the evenings on spirited drives to see friends!
Sounds like a trackday is the way forward now then! I'll get looking, cheers...
Live out in the sticks of Norfolk with snetterton under an hour away and plenty of back roads, it gets the country road treatment most days! I was thinking of half stripping it and fitting a rear cage to see if that makes it feel better
I've definitely been driving it as it should, and its still an awesome little car to drive, I just don't seem to have a love for it like I have previous cars. I had thought of a couple of track days, would be my first time on track and I can't say I'm not nervous about crashing it!
Hi Guys,
The Clios been giving me a bit of a rough time recently, last couple of months i've been considering other cars of similar nature, but i've just replaced the Gearbox, Radiator and a set of injectors this month so i'm in this too deep now to just turf it out. What sorta things can i do...
Im also not sure, i didnt use the OMP horn button, I had a 1.2 8v Phase 1 in my possession, with front fog lights, so swapped over the indicator stalk to relocate the horn
Yep, its as simple as that, match colours and you're away! Theres a couple of different methods of going at it though...
You can either chop the plug off the loom (vehicle side) then solder/crimp on the required female spade terminals to match the OMP horn button.
Or... You can salvage the...
On my 172, i had the same noise of hearing the motor going, but with a bit of knocking at the same time, turns out one of the linkage arms had sheared off at the end rendering the wipers immobile. If you can freely move both wipers by hand then this normally indicates a broken linkage.
How are well all securing these then? Been running mine for around 6 months now with it just hanging and wedged under the battery ground wire. Is it a case of zipties to the nearest panel or what? Noticed the rubber on my ramair is starting to split at the neck as well which is annoying :/
Fair enough about the VVT! Learn something new every day! Replaced the hose clamp on the breather rocker end a couple of months back in an attempt to sort this. I hadn't checked if the pipe was blocked, I'll do that. Is it anything to worry about or quite a common thing?
Hi All,
My car has a burning oil smell above 5000rpm, I've noticed this in 3rd or 4th gear. Mates following me reckon there's no blue smoke from the exhaust behind me, although they can smell it also? I know the VVT system kicks in around these revs. Dephaser and both belts and all...
Encountered an angry driver myself the other week, thankfully ended in no damage. Two cars in front of me on the main road doing 45 in a 60, I overtake and carry on as per. Nothing unusual. I take a slight detour off the main road to show my passenger where I crashed my golf a year before hand...
Hi,
Anyone know the part number/price for these? My studs have both snapped, one of them has disappeared and I've got one but left so best get the full set. Any one know? Cheers
Hi All,
Recently had a mate of mine mop my car to bring the paint back up, no idea what he used, i'm not an expert, some sort of Trade Auto Glym stuff. Anyways, here are some photos of it shining after its clean, Enjoy!
