A (y) for welsh182 ! My car went back into Renault this morning to get this sorted and it was indeed the new exhaust touching the gear change mechanism while in 2nd gear !
It is all fixed now and the car feels great again ! All set for the Curborough trackday on Thursday now !
Thanks to...
Cheers Andy, I will check it out. I have just realised that they are based in CARDIFF ! Just down the M4 for me as I am in Swansea !
Is there any chance of some pics of the tailpipe ? Also, do you have any clips so I can hear the sound of the exhaust ?
Would you say it was better than a...
You owned it for 4 days ? Oh my fooking god ! What a tw@ ! I feel for you mate, I really do ! I cannot imagine the anger you must be feeling right now !
:cry:
Built a fence and gate for my house and made a camcorder mount for the car. Acutally, thinking about it I have had a very productive weekend. Done all the things I wanted to do.
Also had time to take the girlfriend out for a meal and drinks in town last night to celebrate her getting a new...
Andy, that sounds expensive ? Is it ? What tailpipes do they have ?
If it isnt then definitely PM me the number if you can mate.
Anybody else with a Powerflow ?
POW, £8,000 is the starting bid but you can buy it now for £8,100 so that is pretty much the price you pay. Seems very cheap but then the guy is leaving the country so he needs to get rid obviously.
You gotta ask yourself the question tho, would you actually try and give them a kick in ? Especially if there is more than 1 of you. All you need is for him to stab you with a screwdriver and that is it, all for a car.
There was that guy last year who chased some people trying to break into...
I am sure I have heard that road name before ! I am going to go out for a spin in a sec and I am sure that is the name of the road.
Actually, it may be the heads of the valleys road which I used to drive on to go to Telford.
Just searched, it starts near Swansea...
Cheers Neil ! Just listened to it and I gotta say that sounds WELL ! POWER SLIDING LIKE A MUTHA FCUKA ! LOL !
:D
Very impressive bit of driving there mate ! Where was that filmed ?
I like the comment from somebody at the end "So hes run it in then ?" LMFAO !
PS Somebody needs...
I will see and hear for myself on Thursday. It is something that I have to get done soon tho I think ! Been thinking about it for ages now and I need to bite the bullet and do it like I did with the suspension.
Looking forward to Curborough now ! Be good to put a lot of faces to the names !
That would be good mate. I can see me coming back from Curborough with sooooooooooooo many plans ! LOL ! My bank balance is crying already !
:devilish:
I have been speaking to Floodie and Powerflow can make a custom exhaust which is just a little deeper than standard, which I want, and it...
The handbook says 650 miles or thereabouts. Try and keep it under 4k revs and never rag it when it is cold. There are conflicting opinions on how to run in the car. I run mine in for 650 miles and then never looked back.
Renault West End is full of towny kids who will just rag the hell out of your car when they have it. I just trust Gravells a lot more and they have always been very helpful whenever I have taken my car there. Shame they fix problems and they give me new ones instead ! LOL !
:devilish...
