    New washer pump and jets required

    My washer pump is on its way out I think. Its a little slow to spray, and not very powerful. I assume a standard clio item from renault/motorfactor will be fine? Or are there uprated ones that will fit? Also, Are there better spray jets available that are direct fit? From other renault models...

    why does my Ph1 not like upgraded bulbs?

    I have noticed that my Ph1 wont accept LED bulbs. Sidelights, reg plate lights, LED fogs etc. They just dont work at all. Tried them wired direct to the battery and they shine nice and bright. Put them in the bulb holder on tje car.... nothing. Anyone else had this issue?

    Law on a de cat?

    Incorrect. The first post is correct. VDRS form. if the cat was present at the time of the MOT, then that would be fine. If you alter it, and get caught, it must be put back to standard to be re-tested.

    Bench testing a lambda sensor??

    Well, this is the issue. I put a decat on. 2 days later, the light came on. I took decat off and plugged it in on normal code reader. Says fault with Cat, refuses to turn light off. Put it on clip...... clip doesnt even talk to the car, wont recognise it. So light is still on, and both...

    10 former keepers on a 182!?

    Whiteland RARB

    Wonder whether these would work well with Koni shocks and Cooksport springs?

    Bench testing a lambda sensor??

    How is this done? A mechanic friend of mine put one in a vice, plugged a multimeter on the terminals and then heated the probe up with a blowtorch. He said that depending on the values shown on the multimeter would confirm if they were buggered or not. Is this true??

    Ruined Ph1 V6 (pic)

    I saw this up close last week in Wilmslow. You cant see it from that pic, but the rear wheels need 50mm spacers, and the bodywork is an absolute tip. The guy driving looked like a right scruff herbert too

    Bargain Ebay exhaust system 3,5"

    I suppose you could cut the end piece off with those tailpipes and weld a stealth tip on?

    How much movement should I feel through the gear stick on a 172

    This. Massively improves, but will then stress gearbox and topmount, so keep an eye on them. Make sure you know, Phs1 is a straight dogbone, Phs2 is twisted. You will need to confirm when ordering. KAM still do these at a good price I believe

    major lows !!

    Because it looks like you have ZERO suspension travel, so either riding on broken springs, or a boot full of cement bags. "Camberz FTW y0!" No...... again, it looks like the wheel bearings have collapsed. "Pimps be lovin poke" No..... just looks like you bought the wrong offset wheels from...

    Clio wake up call

    This... everyday... x 100 Clownshoes that think their DRL's give them precedent in the outside lane, being either up your back end or blocking your way with a large gap in front. I never see any other 172's near me anymore

    Time to spend some cash on the old girl

    Mwahahhahaha. It can easy be done in one piece. I wouldnt spunk hundreds on the real deal though, just to end up with a lasses heel marks in it. Get some faux s**t off ebay. That was the plan. But if I got 1000 for mine, then added up the 1200 or so its gonna cost to get mine sorted, its not...

    major lows !!

    If I do 30mph in mine and hit a pothole, it doesnt rip the chassis leg out, or take an even bigger chunk out of the road. Plus, if broken is looking better, you must just LOVE visiting scrapyards

    major lows !!

    Its just a massive "pull me over" to the police, mainly because its not MOT friendly, so then you get a VDRS form, and wjile you are there, they will f**k you for the pressed plates and HID bulbs in standard lamps you no doubt have also. *shakes head at the "yoof" of today*
