What's the immobiliser light doing? Have you tried a different crank sensor?

The only thing I've ever been able to put it down to is that when the starter motor is cranked there then isn't enough power for the ECU/Injectors/Spark plugs or something like that. Especially because if testing the battery at this stage it'll usually read 12v still

It's a mystery to me but I've had the problem and countless others have. I used to have a 172 that would not start for some reason, then after 20 tries was fine. Changed battery and has been fine now for 3 years as I know the current owner well.

No no no, charging won't work. You need to try a different battery

eBay about £3

Have you changed the battery? If not I bet it's that. This problem happens so much you could of found that with a search

You forgot to change the right hand side too, everything like tyt should be replaced in pairs? I thought that was common knowledge?

Buy from RPD then for £10 more, makes sense? Rears from eBay will more than likely be generic all model ones rather than a sport one.

OE quality isn't much to go by lol!

Why do you need to buy new sport ones? Just buy new cup ones for £70, they're the same price, may aswell get it done now if your doing it, eliminates the problem. Yes, was the first issue I had 8-9 years ago.

Come on Tony, we've both been here long enough to know that most CS users after 2010 don't listen to any kind of advice, and usually do the opposite spending even more money. Two rear shocks are less than £70 and take all of ten minutes to fit.

I had the same once with brand new shocks, in fairness though they were both leaking within a week of fitting and could physically see that. The amount of issues the rear shocks causes is unbelievable because of it being such a light back end. All you need to do is look at all the comments in...

It's rear shocks, I won't say it again

So you've watched Fast and Loud but never heard of Gas Monkey Garage... Which the program revolves around?!!?

Lolwut?! Serious? Maybe if you stopped talking about boats and crappy rental cars you'd be open to other things ;) Never heard of Fast and Loud on discovery?

I think that supercharger is an engine destroyer [emoji36]

So true, I had completely standard brakes including Renault pads on my 250bhp one and that was taken around the Nurburgring and driven harder around the roads. No fade, no smoke

Having seen and heard the video of it, it looks awesome moving and sounds lovely!

No really as if standard unit you'll then need to splice a lone level converter in so the sound won't be as good. Don't forget it's about quality more than power too

FLOL that's true.

Think I prefer the gloss black!

Did they give you a time before you can wash it? Usually best to wait a few days?

It's actually the pulleys that hold the cam cover on. Pulleys need to come off the cam

If it's just started you've still got years of driving it to go! But get it changed ASAP

Does this count?

Lol, my missus did that once, if your using it it actually goes down whilst being charged!

You can have a shock which leaks or you can have a shock that's seized. I've had leaky shocks in the past, I was just merely pointing out that they don't need to be leaking to be knackered.

Missus always used an iPad charger and I used normal. I would always get better life out of mine.

If they're Renault ones you won't, they'll be a direct fit.

When the rear shocks are knackered there are no real visual signs, unless somebody is following you and then the rear wheels bounce around like nobodies business causing it to skip. I think a track day is the worst thing you can do if you have issues with its skipping and turning on its own...
