You've also got a free 18mm socket there it seems 😂

That's the gearbox end cap, it's not that 😂 I would be looking at the coolant reservoir and the lines going into the heater matrix.

Just different ways of measuring how much air is going into the engine. MAF measures air flow before the throttle body. MAP measures absolute pressure inside the intake manifold, in this case it's vacuum in an NA engine.

MAP sensor ;)

Nice work 👌🏻

Always a winner when you still have all your fingers left after a day using things with blades 😅

Imagine it'll be even better than the Ryobi version i've used of my dads.

They may well already be pressed on yeah, in which case it's worth just double checking the spacing.

No idea sorry 😅 However, if i was going that far with wiring, i would go standalone ecu and pdm.

Where did the fire start? Looks to have started under the bonnet.

I believe so yes. I've also got this from the Renault manual.

When you remove the hub that the pulley bolts to, be careful not to bend it. Also need to get the spacing correct so that it doesn't misalign the belt like @RichValver said.

I have a figure of 20-30Nm in my head. But what you've done with the impact gun is the same as what I'd do.

105! That seems high for a fine threaded nut like that 😅 Where was that figure from? It's only to hold the top mount on really, for when you take the strut off. The weight of the car holds everything tight.

I've got these from a local electrical supplies place. https://hilltop-products.co.uk/professional-crimping-tool-for-pre-insulated-terminals-ct15.html

Hope you've ordered one that goes to 300, as you'll need that when doing front hub nuts (280) 😅

How did you loosen them? If it was with the gun then it will be more than enough to tighten them with.

Breaker bar? Tight as you can go with that.

Renault roller it (loctite 519) on from factory. Use that or the Victor Reinz stuff, not silicone sealant. Hope you've washed the head out properly too, just in case there's any bits from the previous engine.

What does your torque wrench go to? Just buzz them with the gun for a few seconds. Put the bolts on the driver's side the other way too, not that it really matters though.

Hand tight, 25Nm i think.

Not carbon, however https://www.maxtondesign.co.uk/index.php?route=product/category&path=1_37_730_738_414

Yeah, don't go to all that effort and then just re-use that crusty rubber.

They've never just seemed to drop in for me. Always have to put a fair bit of pressure on the wishbone for the bolt holes to line up. Aye f**k Meganes 😂

Can happen with both in the air, just not quite as bad.

Don't forget to come back to us when you're fighting the anti roll bar, trying to get the shocks back in 😂

Frida..... Wednesdays on CS are back 😅 Bring back Fridays on CS.

It's actually scary how dangerous it is having the rear disc as an all in one disc and hub, in situations when the disc cracks.

That usually just kills the bearing.

Probably this. But does still look high, but then it's been a while since i've seen a stock height Clio 😂
