I can't put in the order just yet i'm afraid... not until I've recieved the ones i've recently ordered as it'll confuse ze Germans but yes DiamondMotors is my company and yes, the mobile number listed is direct to me. The website contact form goes straight to my BlackBerry to and is actually the...

Does it make any knocking or banging noises when cornering? A CV joint will normally cause a grinding or knocking noise whilst cornering.

Some kind of dark pervertion inside is willing to pay to see this if you lose this one Start simple and check the battery terminals are good... pay special attention to the ghey 120A fuse on the + terminal as this is the starters main feed and when it pops it causes problems like you're...

As above, clean all earths and connections to the rear light clusters.... 30 minute job and real easy restoring all manliness.

What "Aftermarket" batter yare you running exactly? Standard fitment batteries are clamped and bolted in position.

Some will, some won't - it depends if they have any on shelf at the minute. If they do have it on shelf they're not going to sell it for less than they paid themselves. If they don't they will order it in on a 2 day stock order or VOR so the new price will apply. Mick

They should do yes... same unit on other models to such as Laguna II, Megane I/II, Scenic I/II etc that use the K4J/M and F4P/R platforms.

Yep its the full kit so belt, idler and tensioner. What are you compaining for? I've got x6 units in stock that I paid £102 each for which I now have to discount LOL They've charged you full retail for your kit and you're unlikely to get anything back for it. If I went to my local dealership...

Depends entirely on the post service from Germany as i'm still waiting for the parts to repair the one I have on my desk now and they were ordered on Saturday. Yes, there is good success rates with UCH repairs but I cannot offer any kind of assurances without seeing the actual unit as for all I...

Did "CODE _ _ _ _" come back after one minute? If so you either entered the code incorrectly or you have the wrong code. If not the unit is proberbly at fault then.

Just checked RenaultNET and can confirm the price for the 172/182 aux.belt kits have indeed come down to a retail price of £60.00 + VAT... happy days Sneaky buggers have upped the prices on the K4M and F9Q belt kit units though to the same from £34.80... gutted Still, it makes the genuine...

Maybe they've moved it over to Motrio? I'm going to have to price this up myself now... back in 10

Have you confirmed that the light unit itself actually works? This is simple stuff so shouldn't be causing you a headache. Do you have access to a multi-meter? The unit needs a permanent earth (I'd use the closest rear light earth myself) and a +12v trigger from the existing brake light...

I'm in Newark every once in a while as my parents live there. You're more than welcome to drop it off/meet up next time o'm over but the cost of a Special Delivery will be cheaper than driving. No, the car will not run without the UCH as it controls all the little things that are taken fro...

That would've again been the ANPR tagetting that noticed it, not the opperator. They're very clever in how they work and know the size of a plate between its min and max ranges. When you mess about with your plate sizes and proportions in any way it throws the softwares tracking ability off...

Loved the video and captions... reminded me of old skool touring car footage. I wish i'd known this was on as its only 10mins up the road from me. I half wanted to see "ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED - 250G - Fastest lap" in an XBox Live achievement stylee appear though. Mick

The UCH is in the passenger footwell area near the glovebox and the relays are part of the PCB... that's a "Printed Circuit Board". Yes the relays can be changed however they're not your everyday 10A/30A standard relays and Maplins can't get them for you (I get mine from Germany) plus its not...

What plugs did you use? Check for anything obviously wrong such as items unplugged and then, if you have no luck code read it to find out why its on. Mick

I don't get how people manage this kind of damage as there's a fair bit of length to the wiring and if you can get your feet to the multiplugs from sitting in the back you must be some kind of freak as they're right at the front and the seats frame design stops you getting to it. Stuffing bags...

Yep the relays in question are on the UCH's PCB and no doubt one has gone down due to water ingress... just fixing one as we speak by replacing both units and re-flowing the board as one shorted out and burnt the PCB track. Water always seems to get in and take out the CL circuit as the clip...

No-one is exactly sure though a few have made there way out of China to these shores as some software is now releasing updates that support it (FiatECUScan being one).

As Jonny said it'll turn out to be wiring related or something as daft as the decoder ring... possibly some moisture somewhere playing silly buggers to if its been parked up a fair while. Do not let ANYONE replace the ECM!! In cases where the ECM doesn't give any response it still can turn out...

LOL - Nope! Ask just about any Renault/Vauxhall/Nissan owner that has a 6 speed unit in their van/car if it whines in 1st-3rd and most will say yes. The JB/JC series boxes are great until they have torque forced thru them. The NDO's are the same which is why the DCi's and RS's eat them up and...

He can look at strengthening it all he likes. In the end the stronger internals will pass on the stress to the next weakspot in the assembly which is the casting... as seen when using gripper diffs and Avanti internals. In short you're either gonna be looking at a serious H pattern or sequential...

I'd wait for the new Elm329 myself as it has the new CanBus equiped chipset meaning it can access more modes and so access more systems than just the EM side.

The comments about the Police not doing their job properly made me lolz quite a bit... Silly me for thinking that a traffic Police officer stopping a motorist for a motoring related offence is their job. The law is the law at the end of the day and no matter how petty it is you can either do...

I find an H02 socket and a breaker bar works best... spanners are shite, can slip and don't give you adequate mechanical advantage. They can be purchased from most places; Snap-On, Mac, Halfords

Clean the + terminal on the battery, including terminals then re-grease and pop it all back again... if that doens't work gimme a shout and I can come out and take a look if you like? Mick

The UCH is a CPU based, network multiplexed, multi-function control unit responsible for controlling various systems on your vehicle such as electric windows, wipers, indicators, central locking, etc. The ECM is indeed the same thing as an ECU and is responsible for all things engine running...

Check the condition of all engine bay earths and the starter solenoid control wire.
