you need the interior door panels off and then as craig says.

the second sensor is to allow the obd to self test the cat converter operation. Most people seem to just unplug it without any problems(this should in theory put a warning light on but it doesnt). you can use a sump plug and copper sump washer as a blanking plug as they are the same size/thread...

just what i was thinking.

had a few of the 172 gearbox mounts shear off.

Can you post a pic.

Check the oil level regulary and keep it topped up to the maximum.

could be:- 1,handbrake cable 2,poor adjustment on that rear brake 3,handbrake lever arm on the brake shoe seized 4,worn linings or maybe contamination(eg-leaking wheel cylinder) Did the foot brake on that side pass ok?

if its a sealed battery hasnt it got the indicator window on it. A small clear eyehole which you look down. If its got a red dot in the bottem then the batterys f**ked. Either the batterys faulty,alternators not suppling a charge,there is an excessive battery drain or a wiring fault.

Maybe a noisy hydraulic tappet. You might find it queitens down after the oil has been changed at the service.

the vvt operates in the following conditions(conditions shown are for the 172 f4r other models are different) 1,coolant temp above 80c 2,inlet manifold pressure greater than 850mbars(note-full throttle is atmospheric pressure which is 1000mbars) 3,between 1800rpm and 6500rpm 4,it only...

Could be a number of faults/sensors that could cause the vehicle to enter limp mode. If the dealer has already replaced the throttle body there must have been a stored fault relating to throttle control. Maybe the throttle peddle potentiometer is faulty(cant see it being the potentiometer in the...

the complete renault shocker top kit is cheap enough.

We use the wynns stuff at work.

Have you pushed the light lense off the adjuster mechanism/moter?(large black thing that twists and locks into the headlight casing. It attaches to the lense by a ball/socket connection)

there not that bad,you dont even have to fully remove the dashboard.

Clio 2 phase 1 had an adjuster at the side of the handbrake lever. Unclip the lever trim to see it. Clio 2 phase 2 have the adjuster underneath the car. You need to remove an exhaust heatsheild.

Have you ever looked to see if there is a connector in the roof for the remote reciever? If the main dash looms are the same then it could just be a case of fit door looms and the parts like you say.

My hillpower ik kit is loud and i can hear it over my magnex exhaust.

The dealer cant adjust the ecu mapping. They can only reset the ecu,down load the latest software version and slightly adjust the idle speed.

dont the central locking looms go into the dash wiring loom though. Did you change that or just make up your own section.

If you recon your old box the parts will come to about half the cost of a recon box,youll have the trouble of stripping it/rebuilding it and there is no warranty if its goes wrong. Best overall to get a recon unit with a years warranty. Id just stick yours in and if it goes then get a recon box...

thats the sort of kit i was on about. You can get a remote for some of these kits.

right ok i see what you mean. Do you think the reprofiled piper cams are any good then andy?

Ill post some more when its daylight. The pics were a bit crap because of my sh*t camara and it was pitch black. Might not get the same gain as a maxogen which is fully sealed but the h/p ik is partially sealed and you get the noise. A sort of comprimise between power gain and the noise. I do...

A heater matrix isnt electrical though. Its like a minature version of a radiator. Instead of the air cooling down the coolant the coolant heats up the air.

Ive got one and i like it. Sounds good and im sure its made a difference.

ill clear it now.

if the wheels are the same then they wont have affected the brakes.

the vehicles passed on all the other things so i cant see the cat being faulty.

It wont make the vehicle brakes less powerful but might make the vehicle slightly harder to stop due to the wheel size but to be honest ive never come across or had a problem like this due to wheels. As eddie says it will affect the speedo so is this what your looking at.
