    How to bypass the side crash sensors in track car?

    I ended up shortening the wiring and relocating the sensors into the space where passenger airbag was, as I couldn't find a resistor that worked from the variety I had at the time. I've since removed the airbag system completely back to uch/fuse box as it isn't needed and the car is no longer...

    Centre dash box thing....

    I bought one from him last week, arrived the other day and looks very good to be honest although I haven't had the opportunity to fit it just yet, my current version sits flat against the dash and this one sticks out proud and angles toward you

    Air bag connector , how to disconnect?

    I learnt the hard way too, to be fair it probably isn't the best of designs

    Air bag connector , how to disconnect?

    There is a little tab that holds the two sides together, been a long time since I took my seats out but I think it's on the left hand side of your second photo. Best way I found was to slot a small flat blade screwdriver in and twist it slightly to release

    Anybody removed the airbag ecu without problems?

    I've taken it all out, cut all wiring that's no longer needed (lot more than just airbag) back to uch/fuse box with no issues

    Radio code

    I would have thought you'd need the serial number off the radio mate, or to be precise the security code. Renault may be able to tell you from the chassis number (Mercedes could when I worked for them) but I imagine it wouldn't be cheap, and it would rely on the stereo being the original for...

    fault codes

    Don't suppose they told you which were 'active' and which were 'memory/stored'? Would have helped to narrow down what's causing the light to come on as stored faults could well have been logged a while ago and haven't been erased, whereas an active fault is current at the time of testing

    Clicking noise?

    I'd agree 100% @jodypla, it's a lot less hassle to change the complete driveshaft. Before you do though have someone look at it first, everyone I've spoken to on the forum will give you the best advice they can but it is only advice at the end of the day, in your situation it's very common for...

    Power steering hose removal - urgent help!

    Is that the one that goes over the gearbox and around? If so you may need to remove the gearbox mount to change the pipe?? This had been on my plans when running cup alternator, but I went for epas as it looked easier. As for getting the pipes off the rack, mine were a pig but I managed in...

    AMAX (APEX?) 40mm springs £30 from ECP

    A max on front and eibach pro on the rear, light was fading fast and haven't got round to taking any tonight after swapping rear springs Hasn't been driven just taken off axle stands and sat on its wheels, brand new cup shocks too

    What are these called??

    At that price it doesn't really matter if they only last a year, I used to change them on the mrs old dci before every MOT. I think to be completely correct they're classed as anti roll bar drop links but as you've seen they're easy enough to find and buy

    AMAX (APEX?) 40mm springs £30 from ECP

    That's pretty much how mine is, had new cup rear dampers earlier this year. As soon as I've finished rewiring and moving the battery it's off for wheel alignment and negative camber then load up and hopefully enjoy :)

    AMAX (APEX?) 40mm springs £30 from ECP

    It probably will be harsh on road, but that's something I can't comment on as mines no longer road legal and gets trailered everywhere

    AMAX (APEX?) 40mm springs £30 from ECP

    Well I bit the bullet and got a set, just fitted the fronts and they're definetely lower than my eibachs lol. This is how mine sits, only dropped onto wheels so haven't taken it out yet, brand new cup shocks too and pms top mounts And a side by side with the eibachs I've got a trackday on the...

    What are these called??

    Yep anti roll bar bushes indeed (non sport type), only a few quid to buy but don't tend to last very long I'm afraid

    Help with my failed MOT.

    Yes that's exactly it, in theory if the wheel isn't ever damaged then it would last the lifetime of the car, obviously if damaged badly enough it will fail an mot (as yours has) otherwise it is just a case of having the tyre/s replaced once worn, idrally before reaching the legal limit (or...

    Windscreen fitted

    Have you tried national windscreens? My local depot where I used to live would fit a screen they didn't supply, don't know if it was just that individual centre or if they all do it?. Got to be worth popping in in person and asking

    Help with my failed MOT.

    I imagine the rear brakes wold need cleaning up and adjusting, and obviously the bearing changed (as you said being done by the garage) As for tyres give some local tyre fitters a ring and give them the tyre size or possibly reg if they're the original size wheels, you'll probably need to...

    Alternator ?

    Yeah 110 amp is be correct, I'd echo the above too and say avoid RTX, seen nothing but trouble with them (normally failing shortly after the 12 month warranty period). I'm going to assume that by asking about RTX you've had a look on the euro car parts site? Before commiting to buying one from...

    Just out of interest have you ended up leaving the cap plugged in or gone down the resistor route?
