You know who you are!!!

new washer bottle is 18 odd quid +vat from renault.

I recon it could be either the coolant temp sensor or the TDC sensor. Will show up on a diagnostic check.

Any garage can service your car as long as genuine parts are used and they are VAT registered. Your not tied to your dealer for anything other than warranty work, you have a choice now as the rules changed over the last few years. Same applies for brakes etc. Have a look on the forum as...

The resistor is 68+vat, but check the connections to the fan, you can get your hand down the gap. There is a choice on them, so best check with your local dealer, if it a BEHR resistor then they are approx 25 from GSF.

dont forget quickshift levers as well, and its cold as. You could always try this to keep it warm http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BN-Hand-Crafted-Novetly-Pig-Willy-Warmer_W0QQitemZ5637287865QQcategoryZ60824QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem pmsl

When I done my dash conversion on my car I disconnected the display unit that shows the outside temperature and my climate control didnt work properly, had to re-connect the dash display and tuck it up under the dash, now working as it should. It does affect the operation of climate control...

I thought that!

Take the engine cover off, look at the back panel of the car from the inside the engine bay if you get what I mean. On the back bulkhead you will see a platic valve with 2 rubber pipes going to it and one electrical connector. Make sure the electrical connector is connected tightly to the...

Elf 10W/40 will be fine.

Drives lovely on the coil overs, nice motor as well. Was worried I wouldn't be able to get it on my ramp, but was no problem at all. They dont come much lower than that, even my mum was impressed "My God aint that low!" she said. Was good to meet everyone last week. So Mr Dansta are...

I use whatever, mostly Signet/draper/snap on/Mac tools As to screwdrivers usually buy cheap one as the do exactly the same job as the Snap-on ones do but at a fraction of the price. Snap-on stuff is so expensive and I just can't justify spending £100+ on a set of sockets. Maybe I'm tight. lol

Take the the Xexon bulb holder out, the bulb should stay in place, have a look at the holder and you will see were the wire goes, they are fiddly but if you know the position to put it back in it helps loads.

ah if its brake efficiency thats failed, its probably just the rear pads that need changing, they rust to the slides on the calipers hence low efficiency. And cheers Fred for letting me know.

they all failing then Fred?

no, I used to be a tester until I started my own business. I can tell you that I would have not failed it. Not fitted/not testable simple as.

if its not there its not a testable item.

what, the brake compensator link is not fitted to cups, the valve is there but the link is not. Thats how they are supplied new!

the moral of the story is, don't overtake silver octavias. they are cursed. unmarked police cars round my way!!

No 1 I recon looks the best.

mine runs fine with the de-cat (but I'm sure I got sent a sports cat by mistake), both sensors connected and emissions are as it would be for a car with a cat fitted. Cant say Ive had a problem with mine.

im crying, fpmsl

1) just joking about the sump washer but in this case its probably the reason behind it or a loose sump plug. 2) The story behind Shermy is.....when I started working for Renault many many moons ago the nutty professor was on telly, and cause I'm not exactly slim they started calling me...

Please Jon, dont bring it in monday that dirty, LOL

Was the sump washer replaced? If not thats why its leaking, also to be safe make sure it is tight.

PM sent (made an error in quote) teething troubles aaargghhh!!!

used to be now self employed ;)

new washer must be fitted with every oil change or they leak!! take note of this! they cost 88p plus vat from your local dealer.
