    Trackday Noise

    Goodwood is allowed by the councill 5 days a year to run unsilenced. 3 of these days is for the revival meeting, the other 2 is for Lord Marchs invitational days. There days vary, but usually its 98 db, but sometimes 101db I can tell you where all the noise microphones are if you want. a...

    Cup Suspension Problems Part2

    Jay they are also going to cut the suspension top mounts to stop the rubbing. Fair enough if this sorts it - but i think i might have to write a letter to Renault UK asking why this needs doing on a 5 month old car. Jay, the guy said he had replaced the lower front wishbones on 2 other 172s...

    Cup Suspension Problems Part2

    Noise from the front suspension is the front wishbones, creaking from the rear is the shock absorber. When on the ramps it was obviously faulty.

    Trackday Noise

    However Ive found Goodwood particually bad, my uncle is even an Ards instructor there. There are noise microphones all the way round Goodwood, put there by the council, so they have to be very careful. We were regularly getting pulled up in the Westfield. Just go easy on the rev limit you...

    Cup Suspension problems.

    I think that the Cup may finally have broken :( My car is booked in already to check out the creaking and banging from the front suspension + also the engine mounts. However over the last week Ive noticed more and more noise coming from the rear suspension, in the form of creaking, rattling...

    182 Best Hot Hatch Ever

    Can I just say I was being no way offensive towards anyone - well OK it was aimed at somebody- when i posted the Clio with 19 bits comment. I have a new car because it suited me and have had old cars in the past, indeed i can understand why people own the Williams / 16v, its a great car. I...
