ok, i posted a while back about my pedal juddering, as the ABS was kicking in much to early.........this was due to the 185 55 profile rear tyres, and the 195 50 profile fronts! Now that im runing 195 50s all round, its back to normal and the ABS/EBD is happy!!!!!! and so am i!!! Mint Powerful...
like i say fred........i swapped my two back ones over 1 month ago, so its prob the tyre that has had 13000 miles of roundabouts! it was hardly worn!!! ?! stupid eh
thanks boys!!! is it worth a 4 wheel alignment?????? or just the front two????? sound like front two?! Thanks for the advice, Im sure 1.6 16v will agree that the old guy was very abrupt to slate my 40mm Lowering springs lol!!!
ok...........met 1.6 16v today and got some new tyres on the back of my car.........i have lowered it 40mm. Apparently one of my rear tyres was scrubbed on the outisde edge, and this is because i have lowered it (not the fact that cars go around roundabouts??????????) so out comes Mr...
.......to be honest mate, it rides nice........handles like it does as standard, just with a better feeling to it and less roll........it still feels pretty progressive to me, which i like. Pot holes etc are not too bad at all.......and when the car is full, the ride is only a little bouncy. Its...
i guess u have 205s on the rear also tho solow......im gettin some more 195/50 toyos for the back today anyway, so all will be running the same profile and have the same rolling radius by the end of today! ill see if that makes a difference!!! PS if i dont post any more its coz my cold i have is...
yeah ive onl got smart wipers too.....had a courtesy car wi auto lights n wipers......annoyed me to be honest lol.......Just think steve.......those toys just add more weight ;)
im not sure if the same Apex springs as mine fit the 1.6 version, but i have dropped 40mm on Apex springs..........

well, my dad has the Octavia RS 1.8T 180bhp, and one of those has been clocked doing 147mph.......worst things was it was a little TWOCER who got clocked doing it!!! It wasnt in my dads car thankfully tho.......But if the 180bhp Skoda version can do that, im sure the Cupa-R would be very able...
yeah abs & ebd...... i just notice my brake pedal juddering when it feels likle it shouldnt be......the dynamique models definately have ABS n EBD..is yours a dynamique Steve? or have u got the older version? Ill find out if it is that after tomorrow........it makes sense as the EBD looks as the...
.....i think i have worked this out!!! i have 195/50 tyres on the front, and 185/55 on the back, now these will have different overall rolliing radius, so the 2 fronts will be rotating faster than the rears.......agree?????? thus knocking the EBD out a bit???? Luckily im gettin the whoile car...
can any of you regulars tell me if this can be taken off in ONE piece from the CAT?????? I want to get the K-tec, but with the few oil sump problems ive had, i dont want to void the warranty..........but if i could fit the standard one at any time, tha would be great..........info boys and...
SoLow..........i have the JETEX blue panel filter for my dynamique, and a K&N cleaning kit...........lol, kinda turns it pink...........but they are WELL worth the money if you dont want to go down the Induction Kit route! Rob
hey guys, i never went after all, not that the 1.2 wud have been on the strip.........but my mate went in his V-TEC civic, black wi Mongoose exhaust n yorkshirecruise.com stickers! he said there were a few clios flying about, and that those 172s are QUICK........so i said, number plate like...
Ok. the silence and tinny-ness of the 1.2 16v has got to go now! at long last! I want to order the twin 3" for the 1.2 16v dynamique. Just a couple of question.....
I keep hearing that this exhaust is very LOUD! and that there is a slightly quieter one now developed???? is this correct? I want...
