Someone’s absolutely fucked sso at my place this morning 🤣

My mate who works in rail as a contractor … it took them three months to get him a laptop He just sat there twiddling his thumbs on a grand a day 🤣

Reminds me of that Brad Pitt film where he calls the tech t**t in because his shaver doesn’t work (it IT because it’s got a plug)

All I’ve ever read is that snr make the oem bearings and they’re the only ones that last… They are in the Renault boxed discs, snr (obviously) and the brembo’s apparently.

Did some background research with some people in the trade I know who say it is the same unit just reboxed. Disc has never been the problem really with rears, it’s the bearings that are crap as you well know. The bearing is the same anyway so that’s one thing :)

Can get the snr ones on autodoc for peanuts in comparison to the Renault boxed discs I’ve just got a set myself. They’re always running offers. I paid like £40 odd quid a disc the other week https://m.autodoc.co.uk/snr/1928123

Hi guys, Thinking about getting an RS tuner. Seems like a good idea considering I’m balls deep in this project, Website has three versions: https://www.fastchip.nl/shop/clio/clio-2-products/rstuner-kit-detail Which ones the one to get????? Am I right in thinking that you have to buy modules...

I wouldn’t say mine smells hot. It just smells like a decatted car when you stand behind it upon starting up. Except inside the car 🤣🤦🏽‍♂️🫠

100% fumey mate.

💩 let’s see how this goes. If it’s still s**t I may just bin the manifold and get one of those sexy b******s from pure In for a penny in for a pound n’all that 🫠

Ordered…

Ffs, yeah. Mines not got that gasket. Although I absolutely bukkakied it in sealant earlier. So I’d be surprised. But I guess it’s an obvious place to start right?!

Just had a Google. Is that flange supposed to have a gasket? If yes, mine doesn’t……..

It’s got vbands mate. All bar the link pipe to the manifold which is spring flanged. I stripped that, cleaned it, sealed it and tightened it today Maybe it is this though. Who knows. It is right by the gear selector. So could be coming up from there I guess

Yeah I’ll do the same Unless it is as mentioned by underhill, the seals around doors and more specially the boot are shite and the vacuum from the rear is bringing the fumes in. Who knows. You’d think you’d hear a leak or smell it around the engine bay wouldn’t you

Maybe it is normal dude. Doesn’t strike me as being ideal though. I’m sure I’ve been in decatted 182’s that don’t though.. wonder if there’s a leak further up perhaps.

Maybe? It doesn’t smell like fuel like race cars do though. It smells of fumes. Gives me a bit of a head ache at times. I’d wondered if it was the decat, but it’s weird it’s bad at motorway speeds etc and with the windows down at speed it’s pretty strong.

See, mine doesn’t smell in the cabin on start up. Only when driving. And if I open the windows it’s loads worse. I guess as it’s vacuuming it in. It’s at its worse at motorway speeds….

Bit of a head ache of a day. Discs didn’t turn up until lunch time so didn’t bother with the rear brakes. Will do those next weekend. Rotated all the wheels. They sound fine, but pretty sure one of the bearings is knackered as the noise goes away whilst driving under brakes or when turning...

This cars getting on my tits now. Resealed all the exhaust joints from the manifold back and it still smells of burnt fuel in the cabin. I’ve now got a knock when pulling away. So am ordering mounts as we speak. I took the steering wheel off and checked the angle sensor. Put it on the yellow...

Went up to the unit today. Whilst idling the cars already on EML light started flashing. It goes off when you boot it though. Any ideas ? Car is decat so obvs the light is usually on steady anyway

It’s deep. UnSatisfying

Exchange yeah. Was hoping to swap them over this weekend but the snr discs didn’t turn up in time annoyingly! I’m happy with the calipers. They look spot on

Trw rear pads have arrived Rear calipers from SSL arrived. Just waiting on the oem discs now. Should be Monday (annoyingly) These look smart though!

Yes

Luckily, my favourite tool. It rubbed on the stock shocks with Cooksports tbf and I'm not crazy low. It defo rubs more now. And on both sides. Sounds hideous when I tip in to a corner at any pace.

Going to get mine up in the air tomorrow and have a look and see if this is what is rubbing on mine. Mines rubbing like an absolute b*****d

Filled mine with lead shot the other week and it's 90% cured the rattle on mine. I can atleast not want to kill myself everytime I drive it now.

+1 for AVD.

I’m jealous of your wheels
