    Car won't Start

    Biggest problem causer at the minute are batteries (Second to frozen coolant casuing jumped timing belts... check your coolant people) Yesterday, I had a 2.3 Zetec Galaxy come in that just wouldn't go. It would crank fine, diagnostics showed the ECM as recognising rotation but it still had no...

    Engine juddering when i start driving???

    There's some corker excuses coming out of workshops at the minute and this is a good one to... next they're be telling her to pump the throttle to get fuel up :rolleyes: Obviously this isn't right and its temperature related but, my question; does it only do this in freezing temps or does it...

    Car won't Start

    Battery is the most likely culprit i'm afraid. You got a set of jumpers or a jump pack?

    Flashing Service Light

    So they've had a look and can't see any history that's triggered the "SERV" lamp at all?

    Sorry to ask a really stupid question but i'm new here so don't know you or your cars history. Has it ever had problems with water ingress as the problems you've got there cannot be down to actual component failures... not that many at once even if its been to the moon and back several times...

    Clio 182 CV joints / Driveshafts

    Indeed a ruddy good find that though cos I hate having to replace a shaft for the sake of a knock on/off joint. I understand the reasonings why they do it that way but its helluva annoying spunking out £200 when you don't really need to. I believe they *should* be the same outer CV joints on the...

    Problem with Automatic Gearbox

    Damn it, another double post... ghey phone

    Problem with Automatic Gearbox

    Automatic gearboxes are not of this world and you would be far better taking it to an auto-box specialist IMO however gear oil level and oil preasure can do things like this. When was the car last serviced and the box oil checked/changed?

    Flashing Service Light

    Has it had a brand new 'virgin' UCH fitted by Renault and setup on a Clip or is it a second hand, decoded unit thats been fitted by a backstreet garage?

    STOP light and oil light at the same time???

    Ghey phone... double post - erase me please!

    STOP light and oil light at the same time???

    Diagnostics on a Clip will most likely turn up nothing. Those two lights will only come on when a low oil preasure has been observed. Your problem is one of the following : 1 - The oil preasure switch is faulty. 2 - The actual oil preasure is low. If its a faulty switch then it is easily...

    Poorly Cup :(

    If you have 100% faith in the ability of the garage to do the job right, using the correct tools required for the job and at a price that you think is fair then go for it. Mick PS: I love those wheels against the blue coach... tres smart!

    Fitted these washer jets

    Had these on my Scenic for over a year and they're mint. They do spray over the car at slow speed but ive found short bursts work well and solve that problem... they are bang on over 40mph though and work perfect at 80mph.

    Handy with a spanner?

    What was wrong with it? Gotta be fooked at that price?

    Handy with a spanner?

    Seriously Fred? I thought the £600 we paid for a 2001 sport was cheap... guess I need to be a bit bolder with my bidding LoL

    Were any other fuses blown? Check the engine bay box to as there are a couple of fuses there also. Could it be the main sensor loop issue? Possibly, yes but without a diagnostic its hard to say as the main sensor array will, when effected by lack of power or a short to ground, will normally show...

    DCI Non starter

    The rear number plate light shouldn't do any serious damage on its own even if it shorted to ground... worst case it would pop the tail lamp circuit fuse which is rated at around 10A. Have you checked all the mini-blade fuses in the drivers fuse box? Are you sure you've not something else bar...

    Another cambelt thread

    I agree there to Danny and i'll only use FAI pumps who supply Renault. Admitedly the aux belt run does bump it up but its rare the K4M tensioners die... just the belt really needs changing.

    Another cambelt thread

    Its still a lot though Jin. I've still not paid my subs so won't name drop but I personally do K4M's on fixed fee at £250 all done with warranty - That's new timing belt, tensioners, water pump and coolant. Personally I wouldn't pay anyone anymore than £350 to do this job but make sure that...

    Surely the addition of a Retina would put it in a price bracket that's out of this world though?

    £500 for a timing belt and water pump on a K4M??? LoL, I'm too cheap!

    iPad.

    @ Revels - True, but you misunderstand me as I wasn't attempting to make a direct comparison. The PB isn't out until sometime around Feb '11 in the UK but the spec has been confirmed and as it's all i've got to go on at the minute hence me asking what actual iPad users think their device rather...

    Cheers Justin - Again, being objective here rather than trying to start a battle; You say spec isn't that important to "most" people however, after reading this thread alone there are multiple complaints by owners stating Safari slows whilst browsing or reboots after viewing large photo...

    Sorry to ask this in an Apple orientated tablet thread but I really think devices like this are the future for general everyday "users" of the cloud based internet.

    Clio Elia

    Yum, yum - that's tastefull Elia are an Autrian tuning/styling company. Some of there Nissan stuff looks good and i'm guessing this wasn't your average cheap Renault kit either but "horses for courses" and all that... I think its terrible, especially those rear quater panels [shudders]
