for reference if anyone does a search on power loss - after swapping the spark plugs everything is now fine with that side of things.

true :( b*****d.

ah yeah but we dont have to plot a course in advance and apply for permission to sail in our barges er carlton gsis :P ft

im stupid but im not mad

sounds like air in the system, you tried bleeding it?

would you seriously? :P im rather attached to mine, at some point there wont be anything left to go wrong because ill have replaced it all...

just booked it in on friday for fuel filter and unseizing the brake compensator valve.. £75 *mutter mutter* thought id do the little things first while i decide on brakes and what to do about the exhaust.

pay day in 2 days :) im at that stage (again) where i think do i bother or get rid? But the way i see it.. i could get rid and end up with a car that develops even more expensive problems where as i know whats been done on mine and what needs doing. So its out with the wallet.

got the car back from its 90k service with a nice list attached of things that are buggered: front discs rusty and corroded rear discs have signs of binding Rear brake pads breaking up rear discs are minimum spec brake compensator valve seized fuel filter rusty and corroded slight play in...

bump again

i feel all special now

dont think theyre rare mate

you know that massive hole in your pocket that the metro gave you? if youre interested in valvers (1.8 16v) you might need a few more pockets unless youre lucky of course.

3 recent problems, dont know if theyre related: Banging sound when pulling away in 1st and stopping - engine mounts checked already. oil pressure gauge sits at 0 when the engine is cold then reads the pressure a few mins later. (only started happening since had engine mounts checked - could be...

buggered had that with my last clio, took the clock to bits and couldnt find anything wrong, put it back together and still no joy

someone must know, i know its nothing major but its annoying

bump^

where can i find the switch or connector?

from the little i can find theyre road legal slicks

is that avons in general or the ZZR ones?

since ive had the engine mounts checked my oil pressure gauge has been playing up. when starting the car from cold its staying at 0 for about 5 mins then suddenly decides its going to start working. Any ideas?

bump^

you do know theyre for show use only right? so youre likely to be pulled if spotted.

ive been told i need new rears due to binding (handbrake) and that the fronts need replacing too but theyre not urgent. So i need to sort out the rear then i can look at the front. But im thinking it might look odd if i keep standards on the back and uprated on the front unless i just stay...

ok... assuming i chose to have the same discs all round for the "pretty factor" any recomendations?

not yet, theyre next. backs need doing first.

need new rear discs, is it worth uprating them or sticking with standards? seeing as most of the braking is done by the front.

Any good? Was talked into buying one to replace a falkon which apparently was a budget tyre.

might have been less if you didnt have the power steering sorted twice [;)]
