Slightly off topic , but still on the topic of services . Cheers Maz :cheers: for the headups on Arnold Clarke in Warrington .Had it done on Friday for the princely sum of £150 with me supplying my own oil . I probably only saved a tenner compared to the dealers round here , but the dealers...

If a car thief knows his stuff , he might look into the car , see its a pro lock and not a cheaper one and think sod that , lol . Like i said before . At the end of the day if someone really wants your car they'll come and stick it on the back of a truck .

The stoplock pro is cat 3 . It just means it's been tested by thatcham test centre and withstood an attack for so many minutes . At the end of the day if someone really ones to steal your car they will .Steering locks are more of a visual deterent than a preventative measure . If you have one of...

I have a stoplock pro . I only use it when i park out of town anywhere that looks a bit dodgy . They are cheaper at argos , only £39.99

It wouldn't be worth going to print baring in mind how many 1*2's were sold and then how many owners would actually want a manual that covered the car .

I thought it was the same as the 182 anthracites . 205 - 110 ixell paint . You can't buy it in aerosols though . If you want it for a bodyshop to spray your wheels give these guys a bell . http://www.tradeproducts.co.uk/ixell.htm

I'm the same as you Kully . Not clued up at all when it comes to wireless , routers and the like . I'm still using Ye Olde desktop , lol ,thats why i suggested burning to dvd's . If the files are music , photos and video then at least if they are on dvd you'll always have them stored for future...

You could always burn your files to 3 dvd's and transfer em that way .

I always use Silkolene Pro S 5w40 . Got some last week delivered from http://www.opieoils.co.uk for £40.49 . If you become a member it's free to join , you get a good discount . It's back up at £44.99 delivered at the moment .As said above its usually 50 quid .

Me too . Always have done with no problems . I use a torque wrench to tighten the wheel bolts and if i've just had new tyres fitted when i get home i loosen the bolts and retighten them to the correct torque .

I was " alright " at metalwork at school , but that was many moons ago , lol . Get yourself down to powerflow mate .

You could try a clay bar . Or failing that wet sand ( 1500 grit ) and polish as rich says . My wheels have been srp'd , egp'd , waxed and the dust still sticks . If you drive your car enough , no matter what protection you give the wheels brake dust is hot and will stick to the wheels , they...

If your lacquer is " pitted " as you call it , then no cleaner will remove that as the lacquer is physically damaged . You sure it's pitted and not particles of brake dust bonded to the wheel ?

Fairy power spray for me as well . I use it alot on mine .

If the boots not ripped repack with grease and get another clip fitted . Its quite a common problem for the clip to snap .

Fully synthetic 5w-40 or 10w-40 . Any dot 4 brake fluid will be fine .

It should idle at 700rpm +/- 50

Give over ! Is he paying you to say that , lol ? When has Ja.Jack ever been the voice of reason ?? He takes great pleasure in sl4gging off all and sundry . It seems to help his little world tick over . Yes Jim , no Jim , three bags full Jim . How brown is your tongue Jesus ?

Hmmm . If i remember correctly you were naive enough to part with your hard earned :rasp: :clown: Naïveté, a French loanword indicating the state of lacking experience, understanding or sophistication ;)

Its not suede for a start , its polyester ;) . I cleaned a mark off mine with a weak solution of Meguiars all purpose cleaner .

Stans down in Swansea and BenR's down in Cambridgeshire . You'll have to post your inlet . Any decent garage / tuners for Renaults seems to be Birmingham and beyond with the exception of Rstuning up in Leeds . Theres fcuk all round here :(

Its around £150 ish . Both Stan* http://www.ap-developments.com/Services.html and BenR http://www.angel-works.co.uk/ do them . Gains of up to 13 bhp have been reported .

The front and rear indicator bulbs are the same offset pin PY21W . The sidelight and side indicator bulbs are W5W capless bulbs .

I'd stick with the Michelins myself i think they are excellent in the wet as well as in the dry . They were made for the 182 . If you buy some different ones and you don't like em then your stuck with em . A case of better the devil you know .

I had the " t " come up on my 172 once . I reset it and it never came back again .

Your stop and handbrake light is probably worn pads , causing low level brake fluid . " t " means an injection fault and " h " is like you say , oil level sensor fault . You can reset them with the button for resetting your trip computer ...

The fuel filters good for 144,000 miles .

^^^ Good question ! If you haven't , make sure you buy ones with the bearings already in and abs rings . If you have , use a blow torch to heat them up , they should just drop off , while they are still hot put them on your new discs .

I think he means the abs rings ?? If your new discs don't come with the abs rings you'll have to remove them from your old discs and put them on your new discs . Heat them up to remove them .

Its in the fuel tank and doesn't need to be changed for 144,000 miles !
