That one isn't, no.

Crank sensor. There's a new updated genuine with a bit of loom which sorts the issues.

Best thing i've ever read on CS, right there.

Crank sensor. Immobiliser. Fuel, Spark, Compression. one of the above.

Yep, completely normal after engine out. It's whatever your grubby hands have left on the manifold burning off.

Yeah, he'll have a sore neck in the morning.

ECU cover/bracket?

Prolines > everything.

It's rare tbh. The fact that the underside of the bolt thread is exposed to the elements mean the thread is normally gunked/rusted up. That, and that you can't get a the purchase with a torx that you can with a hex. Buzz gun is the best way normally, with some WD40/similar on the thread from...

Use the two lifting eyes on the engine. One over the back left hand side, and one at the front right. The one at the back left will bend in towards the engine, don't panic, happens everytime using seatbelts as the strap.

Cup's a doddle. No need for anything special. Take a pic of the belt routing and do the usual tensioning and it's peachy

Find a sensible tester before you do that.

Yep, either need to wind the piston back in, or lever the caliper slider over so they slot in. Make sure they use the washer and don't just leave them out, or the bearings will be goosed in three months. Would suggest not sending your car back there. lol.

Best forum name there is.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Audi-A6-Genuine-Front-Cup-Holder-4B0862534D-/181837576393?hash=item2a565d38c9 One of those or similar. Maybe cruise control panel on the right? Cut into a dash strip maybe? Into the Hazard panel?

A guy on Rallye Register years ago managed to retrofit an audi cup holder mech into his dash.. No reason something similar couldn't be done on a Clio somewhere.

If not that, it'll be coilpack, leads or injector. Latter being my bet. To diagnose which cylinder, take the fuel rail guard off. While running, unplug an injector plug one at a time. If the misfire gets worse, move onto the next one. If it doesn't, hey presto!

Pretty much. I'd grind the top of the bolt head off and work out how to stop it spinning from there.

I'd run it into the ground. Spending the same amount on maintenance isn't worth it for me. Drive it around until the belts do go, sell for £350, it's cost you £400. Use that money you would have spent on belts to then buy a thousand pound 172. Repeat process until they're going up in value.

Clingfilm it.

Yeah, entirely possible. I'd just sack off the undertray altogether though. They never go back on any of my own cars. If there's a leak, i want to know about it.

As it happens, I do have a set of brand new genuine ones for sale. £30 posyed

Bumper is easy to remove. Why you'd want to fit the jets though is a mystery. Horrible leaky things. Better to blank them off and not worry.

Bingo. And you'll more than likely do your back in trying to move the c**t!

Why you bothering taking the subframe off a breaker? Take the engine and box out of the top, leave the subframe in place!

There's always more. As soon as you have it all, someone will print more for you to aim for. Stop worrying when you have enough not to TBH.

Lol! That's one way to do it! You breaking the thing? If not, Wut de feck?!

1st and second are long, yes, but the majority of my fun driving is from 40-90 odd, where 2nd, 3rd and 4th are mainly in play, and the difference between the gears being so small makes it great to keep it on the boil. Yeah, i have to say, the steering lock is bloody terrible and it feels like a...

I'd love to see how a 306 box on a Clio would be. The ratios in my Rallye really are perfect. That said, it'd be way more than i'd want to spend in doing it.

Nah.
