    clutch damage

    To answer your first question, yes it's just the breather for the oil separator in the rocker cover.

    Anyone running a PMS sump guard? - Increased vibration?

    I think a stitch/seam welded subframe would provide a bit more strength too. Probably something i'd look at if i had the subframe off.

    Which driveshafts for 182?

    GKN made the diffs for the Megane R26, so they're not going to be poor quality IMO.

    Kubica M4 Ring Lap

    Different drivers in different cars will have different lines. All depends on the car really. Aero, mechanical grip and braking performance will all be a factor. Trackday instructors are mostly there to tell you the safest line and to get you driving smoothly. This usually makes you quicker if...

    Using tyre profile to change your 'gearing' ?

    Plus the MR2 will have a completely different roll centre to a lowered Clio. That's the main issue with Clios, you fit coilovers but then need to correct the roll centre in order to bring some of the handling back.

    Adjusting gear selector - tips required

    I believe the way to do it is to put the box in reverse manually and then put the gearstick in it's reverse position and tighen up the linkage.

    What has happed to this Alloy Wheel?

    Probably water trapped inside the gaitors and it's just sat there and corroded the finish.

    Front ABS Sensor

    Same both sides on the front yeah. Those won't fit the rears though, you need these for rears. Rear Passenger Sensor - https://www.buycarparts.co.uk/triscan/7659430 Rear Driver Sensor - https://www.buycarparts.co.uk/triscan/7659429

    Pulley part number

    Yeah, you may have to unbolt the dogbone to be able to jack the engine up. Depends how high you need to move it.

    Pulley part number

    Yeah should be fine.

    Pulley part number

    There has been a few kits from Renault where the pulley has been missing, so that's probably why it wasn't changed.

    Ahh right that's weird. Let us know how you get on.

    Cup alternator?

    I'm guessing you're fitting a Valeo unit? As that's about the only one that's worth fitting unless you want to do it again in a week's time 😂

    Detailing Chat & Questions Thread

    Yeah that should do it. Mixed 1:10 and spray on and leave to dwell for a few minutes, then rinse off and wash as normal with a plain shampoo.

    Cup alternator?

    A Cup one won't fit the AC mounting positions. There's loads of alternators about that have that connection on the wrong way...

    Detailing Chat & Questions Thread

    Sounds like tree sap to me. Maybe it's been partially washed off or spread around the car as you were washing it. Do you have any citrus pre wash or something to try all over the car to help break down the sap before washing?

    Trailer advice

    That's correct. It's the trailer plated weight plus the car's max weight stated on its sticker.

    Usually the first week of October isn't it for Google stuff? Edit: 30th September launch event for both phones.

    Anyone running Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 (19" F30 330D)

    Meant to be alright. Mate is thinking of getting them for his C63.

    clutch damage

    Yeah if the flywheel was loose you'd know about it 😂
  24. Mr Trailer Man

    clutch damage

    On closer inspection on the PMS website there are options for two types of flywheel. Standard clutch and race clutch. Assuming you have bought the standard clutch fitment option, there should be no reason it's the flywheel at fault here I'd say.

    clutch damage

    Worth giving Nick at PMS a call, he's really helpful. He'll be able to tell you if the specs of the lightened flywheel is different to OEM.

    clutch damage

    I think most instructors are like that initially, they want you to get the basics right so that you're in control of the car. They don't want to be in a precarious position when you're balancing on the brakes and blipping the throttle. In RWD cars it's even more important I think to prevent...

    clutch damage

    You love that limiter don't you 😂 If it's still on standard valves I would strongly advise not to bounce of it like that haha. Possibly practice some heel and toe rev matching on the downshift to be kinder to the drivetrain.

    clutch damage

    The release bearing should move back fairly easily I would imagine. Sounds like yours has seized itself in place for some reason.

    182 Rear Brake Spacer

    Looking face on at the disc, if you were to push/pull the caliper is should slide. Once you've got the right spacers on there it should all fit really easily.

    182 Rear Brake Spacer

    The reason you couldn't get your caliper carrier back on with the pads in is because the caliper slides in and out, or at least it should do. If you pull the caliper in and out it should move.
