if you get enough cold air to it then you should see a gain as well as getting the noise.

ik if you can sheild it from heat and supply enough cold air with feed pipes.you gotta love the noise of an open ik.

would like to find out.the standard bulbs are white and all the dials etc are coloured orange so i wonder how they got rid of the orange.looks good though doesnt it?

i like that.wonder how theyve got rid of the orange original background.

definatly a strange one that i havent come across yet.

i meassure the suspension arm distance and use the splines to check ive lowered the amount i want and to find where the torsion bar fits in.it only fits in properley in one place.eg-lowered by 20mm the torsion bar needs turning(from its original position) clockwise 8 splines to find its correct...

if its gets a bit warmer i think ill have a run down.

if there was a loose/bad connection then when you changed the ecu back you probably disturbed it and righted the problem for a while until whatever it was worked loose again.might have been a faulty wire as that could explain the problem gradually developing.

drum brakes dont suffer from it/can be prevented due to the braking surfaces are protected from the weather as they are inside the drum.discs however are exposed so you get the problem.maybe if renault changed the pad material they could cure it but they havent yet.

all the knocking issues weve had have been on the phase 2 and there is a shocker turret modification.

its the damp causes the pads to stick to the discs if the vehicle is left stood for a while with the handbrake on.no known repair that i know of.

either the fuel pump is faulty or there is a short circuit on the fuel pump wiring.

now thatll confuse folk.

definatly something causing the ecu to read the wrong engine speed as the shift light comes on about 1000+ rpm early so the ecu is reading a engine speed which is a lot higher than actual engine speed.

think it was ryhs who mentioned it before.

the ecu adjusts ignition timing and injection duration.the only way i know of checking a knock sensors output is by looking at the readings from the sensor through the renault clip.why dont you think it is working?

the edit is complete,cheers.

i can remember somebody else saying a decat on there 172 had improved mid range power but peak power was done a bit.

possibly:- tdc sensor(tdc sensors normally fail when they get hot) idle valve

are you going craig? ^^^

thats weird how the shift light comes in early.maybe an ecu or engine speed sensor(tdc sensor) problem.

squeaks can also be caused by the pads vibrating thats why car makers fit shims on some models.

if thats the case then i stand corrected but i thought they all used the same lamp.

brake dust,uneven wear on the pad/disc surface,corrosion on the discs and some cheaper brand pads can cause it.

doubt the weight of the box would make any noticable affect.

yep need spraying.

do they do a queiter version of the stealth system like they do with the others.

a make will be stamped on the plastic visible end part of the matrix.have a look(get your head down in the passenger footwell and you can see it)

was considering the k-tec cat as well but im getting my ecu first.youll have to post what you think of it when its fitted.

i run mine on normal unleaded most of the time as super/optimax is more exspensive and never have any bother.as for your situation use optimax if you want but normal unleaded is fine.as for the suspension i wouldnt mind knowing as ive been looking at suspension for my cup but unsure what to get.
