    Roughly how much camber will you get as standard with coilovers? - Help please

    Without camber bolts, you can't adjust, so it should give near on standard camber. Unless the dampers are slotted obviously- if so, just match up left and right as close as possible.As soon as you fit camber bolts it gives you the adjustment option.

    Breaking a Clio- are my figures ball-park?

    I removed the box on this one, couldn't see anything untoward. If memory serves me, Kris fitted it back in himself...

    Rustbucket did me proud today! Some other cracking metal about too.

    Pulling engine/gearbox forward on mounts.

    Vibration/knocking at high revs and when backing off was almost certainly the manifold on the subframe if it's been sorted by moving the engine forward. Crank sensor imo is black or white. It either works or it doesn't.

    Pulling engine/gearbox forward on mounts.

    You can also loosen the 4x 13mm bolts that hold the upper gearbox mount to the body and adjust from there. They all have a certain amount of adjustment.

    My new toy - WARNING - ESSEX CONTENT!!!

    Nothing with a Blue oval on the front does anything for me, however this does look like a tidy example.

    Drain fuel Clio 172

    Either take the pump out and syphon from there, or remove the feed line from the fuel rail and turn the key to prime the pump and pressurise the system.

    help with cables running down back of gearbox

    Various wires down there in that area. Lambda. Gearbox earth. Speedo sensor. Reverse sensor. Get a pic of the plug up and i'll tell you what it is. (I'm midway through a 'box change atm)

    Some scummy f**k drilled into my petrol tank to steal the fuel!

    As said, tanks are made of plastic. You'd have to be incredibly unlucky to make it go bang by putting a hole in it. Find someone breaking a car- the tanks usually end up in the bin because they don't sell.

    Throttle body....how hard isit to change?

    Two plugs/connections that always gets me raging is the starter motor spade connection and the gearbox reverse sensor plug. I've always got cold hands by this point- on several occasions i've talked about torching other people's cars over these two little f*****s.

    Knocking noise under hard acceleration

    My bet is engine mounts need changing/adjusting. Could well be the manifold hitting the subframe.

    New Exhaust Cat

    On a 182 it goes (from front to back of car) engine - manifold - cat/decat- centre section- backbox. The centre section and backbox might as well be one section though.

    5mm spacers on the rear

    Did you see what happened when he fitted rear brakes, FFS?

    5mm spacers on the rear

    Put one on, count the number of rotations the bolt goes round before it's tight. I'd be happy with five full turns.

    Urgent Help Needed ASAP

    The joint between the wiper stalk and the linkage is a bit of a weakpoint, although it's odd for both to go at once. My bet is fuse, relay or linkage. I've got linkages kicking about if you need one cheap.

    People with track cars/no interior or headliner

    Dehumidifier and hoover the dry mould off. ? Maybe try leaving some rice in a bowl in the car? That attracts water, no?
