Just don't go mega tight... let the blood flow thru the fingers

Heat... serious heat... will kill an X65's inner control arm. Go easy if you go that route but personally I'd just change the arm. Renault items are around £40 each. Type approved are around £23 so notbthe end of the world (if you have the tool to do them:

Nice one... welcome

Urban cammo Clio... you saw it here first

I started to prep my new front bumper for paint and fitting of brake ducts... ... yep, they're horrible to fit.

I love mine loads although I had to switch out my unsilenced midsection for a silenced one and I have to say I honestly prefer it. Sports CAT is next on my list though as I'm already sick of the bloody EM light.

I don't need to PM you. I would reconfigure the SRS Modules config... for a fee of £20 but if you don't want to travel then that's okay.

If you fancy a trip to Nottingham i'll fix it for you. Mick

What are you after for it Simon? Drop me a PM

The codes are merely for fine control so shouldn't stop it running. It can take a few minutes to run and restart on its own again though.

That may be the issue then especially if its a nin-genuine speedo cable.

I kind of went the otherway... Cup doorcards thanks to James23 (which I owe him for still). Just modifying them so I can fit some decent front components. Finally got my inlet back together after repairing the manifold and the fuel rail is properly mounted:- Back to RS Tuning on Monday for...

James, you are a better man than me for letting it go and that car is honestly a Mahoosive credit to you as it puts some "professional" builds to shame. One day though he'll get his... karma's a b**ch like that... it may not be for years but it will happen.

Gentle gentle, not maximum chicken or else you'll bend rods! The idea is to get the engine to idle on its own and then to slowly start to add some revs.

Wait till you see what I've got planned for tonight's message... and its Video! Mwhahaaa

In short, no... no speedo drive on the 182 boxes. Pull it out amd put in a Cup/Ph1 box. Mick

I love it when someone tells you its an "injector" problem on a common rail diesel as 7 out of 10 times, in the case of the K9K unit, its actually not. It needs proper diags though as mentioned above and someone thats not trying to up-sell you a set of injectors based on a code pulled with a...

I can't help it and its down to long hours and stupid people calling me asking why their EM light is on and they don't want to pay me to look at their cars. Oh, then there's the text mesage from random CSers at gone 10pm asking me if I'm available to talk about their car problems. Honestly...

It will do that, its telling you how much it hates you but as above, go easy... a few brief squirts every couple of seconds in the inlet and it'll eventually run itself. Its also a good idea to NOT do this in an enclosed space as the fumes will take the hair off your ballsack.

Not guilty your lordship

Diesel knock is normally caused by incorrect timing, fuelling or injector control. It may also be a compression related issue but its unlikely if its starting on the button.

Until you know exactly what is wrong what are you going to look for and more importantly where?

Then it needs easi-start to help it run for a minute or two so it forces proper fuel pressure up.

Well one, your battery is flat (that won't help) and two have you checked there is fuel rather than air at the injectors yet as cranking aline isn't going ti give the required pressure.

It means the cars network is passing the system checks but theres still an issue... normally a relay not switching. Really a diagnostic session is in order to put an accurate finger on whats wrong.

That's diesel knock then and not good. Does it start okay or does it need a bit of cranking? Were the injectors tested prior to installation? What's the fuel pressure like on diags? Mick

Its a sign of borderline low gas pressure usually as I know mine has a minor leak (holds pressure but needs a regas every 8-9months.

Winner... mine does it to

Any idea what for? I thought "track group ltd" was a track day support and experience company not vehicle prep. What I don't understand (and im not trying to rub salt in any wounds or to stir) is how you can take your vehicle to a company (in this instance "TDF" ) and have Matt design and build...

Yeah it could be a fuel problem but it could also be the flux capacitor. Proper diagnostic session is needed
