    Blew the box up on my 172 cup grrrr

    You have a 172 Cup? If so the speedo is driven by a sensor which plugs in to the back of the box. This system is used ONLY on the ph1 172 and 172 Cup so your choice of 2nd hand boxes is limited

    Solid top mounts

    They will give you a much more positive turn in both on road and track. Obviously it helps if everything else is tight to but the difference with vs without is night and day... one of the best mods I did.

    Blew the box up on my 172 cup grrrr

    Yeah thats not bad providing it has the speedo drive built in to the rear of the Diff.

    Solid top mounts

    Yep and they were fine. You really should do the brace at the sametime though when fitting the PMS kit as the six holes require precise drilling to work. Its not a nice feeling drilling the strut tops but the effect it has afterwards is worth it. My Clio felt amazing up front on off-camber...

    Clutch... genuine Valeo item is perfect when purchased anywhere but Renault. As for boxes I'd find out what has happened and have yours rebuilt as speedo drive boxes are getting harder to find 2nd hand now.

    Google Nexus 5

    I just cannot get on with vanilla android. Maybe KK will be better than ICS or JB though... I've never rooted as I actually like Samsungs Touchwiz

    Hangouts gets SMS integration.

    True but surely it's only as secure as your device as the App starts up without the need for any additional login details? If you haven't got security activated someone can still pickup your device and read your chat history and send something malicious if they so wanted (as it is in WhatsApp...

    Google Nexus 5

    It read like you were shocked at the sheer size of five whole diagonal inches so I made the guess that you had to be an iPhone user.

    What is it with you Apple boys and girls that makes you fear 5" OLED screens? Some of us are just naturally used to wielding large items in our hands ;)

    clio 182 stuck in 1st gear. help please!

    If that doesn't work you will need to drain the box oil, remove the 5th/Reverse end cap and make sure no bolts are missing.

    K9k timing belt failure

    Just the X84 or is it engine number specific?

    I was a strong advocate of Blackberry and BBM for years (I still miss the secure email) but honestly, I disagree with that article Tom. BBM is great (I downloaded it and had a play with Gray the other night and then promptly removed it fnaar fnaarr) but it offers nothing over the already well...

    Best android phone currently?

    The "One" is better than the "One X" but if you're going to be Spotify'n and watching movies all the time off mains you will crucify any battery. Daveski often jokes about his One X using more power than his car does fuel/oil

    172 Cup Limp Mode - Throttle pedal issue?

    I was stupid enough to say "I'll do it" one day... the rest is just happened lol CAN fault was a combo of R2 being under water and a naughty chafing in the rear EPB loom which allowed battery voltage to CAN L/H. Absolutely nothing worked so one garage added a new UPC and Renault just wanted to...

    Best android phone currently?

    I have a similar argument going on in my head but with my current S4 vs a Note3... I want the larger screen but not at that price (fingers crossed the rrp fals towards the new year)

    172 Cup Limp Mode - Throttle pedal issue?

    Yep, if the light has been on before and no-one has cleared the context data the computer will flag it. I'll also scope the pedal tracks and some other bits to prove any faults that may exist. Just emerged from a 2.5day stint with a Scenic II that had a nasty CAN fault which two other garages...

    172 Cup Limp Mode - Throttle pedal issue?

    I have a pedal in stock just in case but I've gotta be honest... these faults are rarely due to the pedal potentiometer. Normally poor/corroded connections
