Isnt talcum powder supposed to be good at stopping the rattles?

None at all. My car is from Holland and is back at my local Renault dealer all the time!! :@;)

The dash rattle is on the left at low revs, middle under normal driving and to the right at high revs!!! I know, its bad. I can just about live with it but seeing as its going in anyway I figured I may as well get it looked at. The knock I get now only really happens when cornering fairly...

For those of you who have been following the tales of my car and all its knocks and rattles heres an update on the knocking when cornering or when the car looses traction when pulling away. Ive just been to my local dealership who took the car out for a good thrash to get to the bottom of the...

Thanks. Its actually booked in for the 16th of October. But I think whatever it was that was rattling fell off part way up the 1/4 mile at Santa Pod on Sunday. I just want them to put there head under the car and make sure all important components are present and correct.

Sutton Park Renault Sutton Coldfield. In fact, where Im off to in 20 minutes. :@

B4stards charged me £78 for an oil and filter change. :@

Dam you all :@;)

I had an oil and filter change at 5k just to be on the safe side. There is no scheduled service before 12k.

I was all set to get one, then the company I worked for went under.:@ Have you seen the prices they are still fetching!!!:o

I wish my passenger seat was tight. Dam thing is rattling like mad again, going in for its 3rd set of runners next month.

Depending on my situation come March, Im looking at going over to the Blue Oval.

I know just how you feel mate. I really enjoy driving my car, but Im only used to visiting dealers for servicing and nothing more. Ive had my 172 6 months from new and its going in for the 3rd time next month. Although they have agreed to look at it this afternoon just to make sure whatever...

Welcome to Cliosport :D

I couldnt stop to pick it up, I was too busy trying to keep up with the Prelude in the right lane. At least they can put my mind at rest that there is nothing seriously wrong with my car.

.....but this appears to be because whatever it was that was knocking fell off the car at Santa Pod at the weekend.:o There was an almighty bang and something bounced along the underside of the car. The car was already booked in for the 16th October, but they are going to take a quick look...

Finally found it. No wonder this beast was running low 11s again at the weekend. http://www.a1rallysport.co.uk/html/focus_demo.htmlhttp://www.a1rallysport.co.uk/html/focus_demo.html

I quite like them.

Heres mine: http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/file.php?image=1063620973__torque1.jpg

Give me 10 to scan mine and Ill stick it up mate. For comparison.

Theres one next month, but unless I you pay me for my services over the weekend :oI cant afford to replace the front tyres just yet. I need to get another month out of them at least.

I was driving miss daisy. :oops: The dirty little slapper. :devilish: Pity you couldnt come along to Santa Pod yesterday.

Well, lets see. You come to an island. If its not busy you do one of two things, adopt a perfect a racing line and fly round it or two see just how much lift off oversteer you can induce :D and enjoy the slide. In fact, just how I drove your car at the weekend. ;) Thats the way to do it :o

Ive done a rolling road day, and 3 RWYB days and mine are have got maybe another 1k miles left in them of normal hard driving. Theyve done almost 9k now.

The bit missing down the bottom is for those French toll road things wotsits. I assume thats the clear patch you are refering to? Sounds like you got a screen like y0z when he cracked his a few weeks back. Except he just came straight out and said it was pink. ;)

Dude, there is something seriously wrong with your car:o I cant get mine to drop lower than 20mpg no matter what I do to it. Might have to see what its doing on the RR tomorrow. lol

Thats terrible. Sorry to hear that. One reason why I never park up anywhere these days. I always keep moving. Dont forget the baseball, otherwise its a weapon ;)
