could be they switched the feature off too. Its controlled by a double on-off switch of the front lights whist ignition is at stage 1. It freaked me out once when i found it by accident when stationary with radio on and did it subcounsciously waiting for the missus.
From reading on here in past posts - sometimes. It must be close to the threshold with a decat hense some ppl reporting no light on dash and others saying ti does. A similar response with MOT results iirc. Also depends if the MOT'er see the decat and is happy to pass it in knowledge that is the...
the one genuine answer and no1 commented on it
p**n was the reason VHS won over betamax and i imagine it will have a fairly big effect on HD Vs Blue Ray seeing as Sony wont allow ANY p**n on its media !!
I dont think id buy another clio - least not yet. They are great value for money espesh the £11k i paid for mine new. However, dealer nightmares and build quality niggles mean im unlikely to go the same route.
I would consider an R26 @ buy my car but only as its a steal at the rpice and imho...
aha thanks for the replies already :)
re crank sensor - theoretically it has been changed at my local dealer but that dont mean owt ....... and also it wasnt throwing up a fault code for the computer to read.
ty BrianR, im under the impression it could be any one of about 6 sensors which...
Im trying to fault find the starting issue on my FF 172 which appears to be temp related. The warmer the tempt he more awkward it seems to start. Somewhere between hot and cold. Initial turnover fine without starting, 2nd attempt usually fires and runs ok.
No faults sown at dealer altho now...
ta for the offer macdaddy but im waiting on what the stealers have to say.....
Oh joy - it gets better & better.
Last fri = still no contact from dealer so spoke to Cust services HQ again and said not happy and want o complain. A 4 page letter later in the post to general manager of dealership...
erm there is.......
Cant find it atm but im 99% sure its one of edde's posts which are stickied in this section or a link off it.
From mem VVT is active from ~1800RPM -7000 ish
the 4-5k kick is the cam profile changing to a more agressive one hence you feeling like knightrider pressing 'boost'
thats my point fred, i havent, altho it must show on their system.
Re newer ones being harder wearing :o - it is !! so is a newer one with the renaultsport logo on the bottomso id hate to see one of the old ones
really ? From various conversation I have had with ppl ive heard its a common thing to only honour warranty work untill the warranty on the vehicle expires. Certianly looks the case with Renault as the customer realtions manager i spoke to yesterday said 'we cant cover 100% of the cost but all...
the only benefit of actually paying my 20% would be that id then get 12 months warranty with it, which seems to not apply if its a complete freebie.
What i am considering also is that if i do pay 20% and keep the old one i could get it recovered properly and then sell the new one. Still waiting...
I dont officailly know yet. Those numbers were from a 2nd dealer i phoned so that I will be able to tell if the one im expecting to call (the crap one) are telling porkies or not... 2nd dealer said wheel is £317 and fitting is a flat £32.90. Im still waiting for the officai response and if...
Just spoken to a diff dealer than the one which I have uded before.
>deep breath<
Full cost of new sterring wheel £317.61 with fitting @ £32.90 pn# 8200057779 which, if i was to fit, would mean i'm liable to pay £63.52.
>breathe out<
Shall see what the crappy dealer actually comes back to me...
I just have a query about another replacement steering wheel im about to have on my (now out of warranty) 04 172.
When I found this place last year my local deal was delighted :) to see me regularly with a list of thing to have replaced under warranty which I wasnt aware of until reading on...
yup 182 is in (see pic)
Im sure this is available on 'the usual' channels and no i wont post a link or provide anyone with a copy of it.
The information i obtained for the description was from...
as i said yest seems a newer ver od dialogys is out 'there'
newer than the prev ver for sure as has the v6 on etc and clio iii (see link)
bit easier to install too. install jave j2re, and install the app (4 cds)
still had to install acrobat 5 tho from cd0 as it wouldnt find acrobat 7 ...
nope tw@t who hit me gave name car is registered to (mr Smith - was a company car) and a contact no. (work). I also took car make model + plate. Was suspect as anything so I took em to police station and he did a check and confirmed the name and said it was a legal minimum he gave me :(
harldy surprising, sony been after em for a few years and they went down for a few months or so when ass the sh1t cracked off with neo + messiah.
If your in business with mods then your a target - end of (unless your clever and keep your legit business and mod business seperate....)
er why woudl you, you have nice shiney new amp which is all good, but your still using a shitty stock hu as the source which will be bilge.
The best setup is only as good as the weakest link and with a stock hu its pretty weak. Save the dosh youd spend on a convertor towards a half decent hu
catch22 situation
to get the induction noise you need an open system but by doing so would suck in more warm air.
you really need a good caf to the filter in a sortof semi open system which gives you slight gain of the caf which is lost by the semi open system but gives good noise.
