    New clutch supplied and fitted

    Its a combination of both... they use cheap white box units which they buy for like £23. You pays your money and take your chance.

    Burpspeed Llandow Track day Photos - 7th March

    Massive thanks for doing this Dan, if only all trackdays gave you at least one hi-res shot of your car hooning about like this they would be awesome! I'll drop you an email later with a request for a photo (of my car) and again massive thanks to you for this and to the crackheads from Burpspeed...

    I don't have Silvervisions either. If I fit those will CS like my car again?

    tow straps yes or no?

    That specific one is 3 months old.

    tow straps yes or no?

    Mine seems okay and hasn't faded either. Oh and I like it.

    182 won't start

    You need to plug it in mate, it could be anything from a connection issue somewhere to a fault with the main control relay. Takes 30seconds to do and eliminates most guess work Mick

    belt snapped :(

    Bet it gets an aux belt kit this time lol

    "Stop" and Battery light on, Whining on start up and burning plastic smell

    Deffo as above, dead alternator and needs sorting fast. Saw this on a Traffic van result in an engine fire... bye bye van! (Blessing in disguise though in that case).

    Stripping out interior wiring help

    I'd research CAN networks and more importantly how the various systems in that vehicle are intergrated before you start cutting anything! I once had someone follow this logic: Start car, cut wire(s), if engine cuts out repair previously cut wire, done ... I can assure you now that logic is wrong.

    Steering Rack....?

    Horrible job, I send these to Fred

    White stuff in engine oil

    Our 2011 tCe has a little discharge like build up to... normal on this engine especially if it does short journeys. I'd still want it cleaning up though.

    Lamda sensor problem on my 172...

    Most likely answer is you have a ph1 and so no post-CAT sensor. Second most likely answer, its been removed from the loom/hidden somewhere and a single sensor/bodged system fitted. My money is on option 1

    Hi, From Nottingham

    Waves.... oh, hai!

    belt snapped :(

    Judging by the look of where the remains of the timing belt rests I'd say its smashed thru the plastic mid cover to... be sure that is replaced not glued. Its role is very important

    belt snapped :(

    Exactly... do a good job and the customer maybe tells one or two people. Do a bad one and they tell everyone!

    Coolant temperature

    If its going from the "normal" mid point to slightly low then it would make a poor sealing/stuck open stat a real possibility yes. It could also be an electrical fault with the vehicle to. Does it do this silly needle dance when the engine is at temp but sat idling or is it only when you drive...

    belt snapped :(

    I wouldn't exactly play dumb but you should be on to them first thing tomorrow. Don't shout and scream as that never helps anyone unless they blatently try to wriggle out of it in which case yiu may wish to consider legal action. This is exactly why I tell people to jog on though when they ask...

    Coolant temperature

    Yep, its a control flap that diverts air around the matrix heat exchanger rather than thru it.

    belt snapped :(

    I've seen them on the web a few times Fred, they seem to promote the use of used parts to. Not really, I do them for £380 with both belt kits which is pretty cheap but that's irrelevant now. It's a clear cut neglegence failure and as a Renault Specialist they must have access to a hooky...

    Coolant temperature

    Heater position has no effect on bleeding Renaults of this age as the heater matrix is an open unit (no thermostatic valves that open/close). TBH bleeding these vehicles up is as simple as opening the bleed point on the stat and waiting for air free flow to appear so unless you're doing it on a...

    Major jerking/hesitation under load

    If the emissions are "perfect" then it stands that both injection and ignition are equally working perfectly. I'm guessing your emissions test was nothing more than a fast idle test at a local MOT station (?) Start with a proper diagnostic session (code reading is a start but will most likely...

    Best thing I've done in 2013 so far (new phone)

    Actually its only a 15" monitor on the Note2 symon, the Note2-X isn't till next month ;) Honestly, Android has come on loads from the crappy early days and I started taking serious notice of it when ICS came out. Using JB on the Note2 and it's extremely well polished and every app seems to...

    T fault onboard dash - injector fault?

    Here's an idea... speak to Fred directly and ask him.

    T fault onboard dash - injector fault?

    The "t" doesn't specifically mean there's a fault with an actual fuel injector per say. Just at some point the instrument cluster has been unable to recieve the injector flow info via CAN. There could be a number of reasons why it is using more fuel and really it needs proper diagnostics to see...

    Best thing I've done in 2013 so far (new phone)

    Had a Note2 for a while now and I love it. Ignore the size jokes, people not used to holding something large in their hands envious. In truth its not that much bigger than the S3 or the HTC OneX but haters gon'hate. In truth I've never had any issues fitting it in my pockets and going about my...
