So i thought just a quick swap over of the modem and i'll be away . How wrong i was , lol. I'm currently on the internet in " safe mode " as when i let the pc...

    arrrrrrrrgh wax

    I don't notice any difference between 476 and the 845 other than the ease of applying and removing . The 476 will see you through the winter nicely :)

    arrrrrrrrgh wax

    Never used the megs 16 so i can't comment on that wax . I've used the 476 alot but much prefer the Collinite 845 liquid insulator wax . Just as durable but hell of alot easier to apply / remove .

    36k Service?

    What about RStuning in Leeds ? Not sure how far that is for you ?? http://www.rstuning.co.uk/location.php

    T/C Warning Light Still on.

    Just take it back to the Renault specialist . You've paid to get it fixed and obviously they haven't fixed it .

    Fuel Savers?

    I heard they really worked . Pair it up with one of these resistors and you'll get 25bhp more plus save fuel :quiet: ;) http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MOD-CHIP-25-BHP-RENAULT-CLIO-MEGANE-SCENIC-SPORT-CAR_W0QQitemZ330195680763QQihZ014QQcategoryZ32094QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

    Karcher Foam Lance Help

    You've got a Karcher HDS 655 ? Looks like you've got a commercial one . They must have different fittings to the domestic Karchers . I'm assuming you got this cheap / free as they cost an absolute fortune when new .

    passenger window, one click or not??

    My 172 had it but my 182 doesn't :(

    36k Service?

    Lol, yeah . But the post is a little confusing . He's after info on a 36k service but as he said he's almost on 72k so he'll need the plugs changing as well as both belts ;) Get your cheque book out mate :eek:

    36k Service?

    Spot on . Plus you'll need the spark plugs changing at 72k. Was that in with the quote at £185 ? It seems pretty cheap if it includes the plugs as well .

    my car is Import :(

    They are undersealed . Its some of the imports from Japan that aren't .

    my car is Import :(

    All the insurance companys i've ever called always ask if it has an alarm .If it hasn't got an alarm then start asking questions .
  15. MRBILLYUK

    my car is Import :(

    I'm not saying the alarms are " always " poor . But there have been plenty of people with problems with their alarms . You can just phone Renault UK edde . Then they register your car on their database . Job done . No letter needed :)

    my car is Import :(

    When i got my first import (172 ) Adrian Flux wanted the VIN . They could tell it was an import just from the VIN . Go with a decent insurance company and you'll have no problems .

    my car is Import :(

    I see this one about imports has raised its ugly head yet AGAIN . As said above . They aren't imports in the sense as Jap imports , they are a whole different kettle of fish . They are the same cars made in the same factory but without a Renault alarm , locking wheel nuts and earlier models...

    Halfords Iceberg Silver touch up paint kit

    Yeah . From the dealers . But like i said . I'd go for an aerosol mixed up at car parts place . It costs the same but you'll get 400ml and not an 18ml touch up paint so you'll have plenty of paint to play with . Imo with the touch up sticks the paint is a little too thick .

    Halfords Iceberg Silver touch up paint kit

    Just get the Renault touch up paint . It comes with a small lacquer as well ( not that you'll use that ). They are about 7 quid . Personally though i'd get an aerosol mixed up , spray a bit in the lid and use a c0cktail stick . http://www.guidetodetailing.com/articles.php?articleId=27

    Fair price?

    No mention of road tax and it checks out as not insured .rclio2006 might be right .Could have been off the road for repairs . It's currently SORN http://www.askmid.com/askmid.aspx

    Fair price?

    If you don't ask , you don't get . The seller can only say no . Most people price cars higher than what they want for the car so there's room for negotiation . The buyer gets the price down a few hundred quid , the seller gets what he really wanted for the car , everybodys happy . Its psychology .

    Fair price?

    Its only 7 miles from as well ;) Like Christopher says . Try and get the price dow a few hundred quid and ask the seller whats the story with the badges the wrong way round . It could be accident damaged and the bodyshop fitted them wrong . Ask about service history and proof of the...

    Which Karcher?

    Personally if i was buying one and could wait a while i'd go for the one that they get in Aldi every couple of months . It's a Karcher but rebranded under a different name for Aldi . It was £75 last time they had one in . It's got a higher pressure and flowrate than the ones you've mentioned on...

    Free Video editing software

    Thats weird . I've used it to split larger files and it saved them as edited video with audio .

    Free Video editing software

    Why doesn't windows movie maker work . If you import a video it splits it into clips , then you just drag n drop whatever clips you want onto the timeline . How bigs the video ?

    Water in wheel well?

    Check under your back seat as well . My 172 used to get it in both the wheel well and under the back seat . I heard it was from the rubber grommets in the tailgate . I was gonna fix it but sold it before i got the chance to . Take em out , silicone sealant in the holes then pop the...

    supposed to be collecting the f1 today !

    I doubt that very much . Can you imagine the time and money involved if every engine was bench tested before fitting to every car built ?

    supposed to be collecting the f1 today !

    You'll get lots of different opinions . Personally when i bought my 172 and 182 i didn't thrash em , but didn't drive em like a grandad either . Limited it to around 90mph for the first 500 miles then after that drove em both normally . Both cars never missed a beat . I was actually told by...

    Engine Cover

    He's only just bought it , so he might not actually know the difference between a cup and FF 182 . Could be a FF and someones flogged the engine cover .
