Summers here so she's back out! Going for an MOT next week then once that's done I've got a set of dci 100 rear stubs/calipers etc to fit rear discs.
The pioneer head unit had died, it had got wet last winter when the centre scuttle drain blocked and has been a little temperamental since...
My 9 year old is obsessed with space and wanted a telescope so got her one, it's got an attachment for your phone so we had a play!
Missed a great opportunity, we had the phone set to 5 seconds timer to remove any shake from pressing the screen and as the counter counted down...
Ive never driven a mk2 on brembos but i always found the 197/200 on standard pads was good but a mk2 on the standard setup with a hotter pad like the M1144 would easily out brake it.
My current 197 has standard discs and M1144's and its sensational on the brakes on the road, especially with a...
"using oil while running in" is basically saying, f**k off for 6 months so when you come back we can claim the engine hasnt been treated properly for the last 6 months, not our issue.
The F4R does not use oil, i must have had almost 20 of them and the only one i had that used oil is sitting on...
my 197 has 4yr old PS4s on it and they are goosed! fit for the bin, plenty tread left. tyres would be going in the bin.
discs probably ok but given the price of a new pair id be sticking a new pair on as the discs will still be pitted and a bit s**t
as above send the UCH away, i had a faulty one that i got away for 6 months every time it played up by unplugging it and then re connecting it, it never lasts
Unfortunately while giving this a wash, a chunk of paint chipped off the passengers door, looks like water has been getting down the back of it possibly. Kinda made me fall out of love with it so I've stuck it on eBay (along with my mk1 Audi TT that I've not touched in years!) and choose to just...
I really like the PS3 in that size, I've used a Goodyear efficientgrip or something like that that was actually really good on something lower powered.
I've got Hankook ventus prime 3 in 195/50/15 and 195/45/16 on 2 different sets of wheels, the 15" ones are fantastic, the 16" ones dangerous...
i use a £20 15m one from Amazon, https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0CZ3K3T79/?tag=cliospnet01-21
Had one it lasted about 3 years and recently burst so ive just replaced it with another one, its perfect, my K4 is plumbed into the garage, high pressure hose drilled thru the garage wall, so all i do is...
I believe the facelift cars got the same gearbox/software as the trophy so much faster shifts on the paddles. I had a trophy and loved the box, i can understand how a slower shifting one would leave you feeling a little disconnected though!
Facelift cars also got LED headlights which would be a...
The boy doing a flex standing in front of all the pay phones on his mobile phone 😂
I remember being about 10yr old and my mate who's dad had company cars going from a vauxhall omega LS to a vauxhall Omega Elite, it was all my mate banged on about for weeks and it must have been because that's...
There's a full series of these, the one with the young guys in the rep mobiles is hilarious, they are all absolutely obsessed with badging S, LS, GL, GLI, SRI, GSI, hilarious
if the AC compressor isnt activating plug it in and look for fault codes. If the system pressure goes low pressure it wont allow the AC compressor to activate, the same can be said if the system pressure is ok but the pressure sensor is faulty.
I priced up a starter motor while my engine was out, decided against it then 4 weeks later had to roll about on the floor trying to replace the starter, I will never refit an engine to a 2.0 Clio without replacing an old starter.
Wouldn't chase power on it as it's just a lot of money for not a lot of gian.
As standard it should have a cat on the exhaust manifold and a cat under the car, you can get a Mégane exhaust manifold that doesn't have a cat, that frees up a bit of power and makes it rev more freely.
Also...
Biggest benefit to going ph2 for me is the LED headlights, once your used to a car with LED headlights it's hard to go back! Maybe it's just my eyes getting old!
I believe the facelift cars all got the revised gearbox software similar to the trophy too?
Thats the springs i run on my RSI,
16s:
15s:
They are strangely really comfortable! i think the ride is better than it was standard!, doesnt handle great right enough :ROFLMAO:
Bit more work today!, Those who have probably seen my other post in the suspension section... I tried to do a suspension refresh on it, as I've done with all my other 172s - Ive already got a brand new set of rear 172 cup ones for it that i ordered a few years ago and never got round to fitting...
I have emailed them to check but I'm not sure if Kam do the same as some other places where they list them then place the order with the dealer once an order is placed.
Went to do a suspension refresh on my PH1, as I've done many times on previous cars and have come up against a brick wall that i didn't expect!.
Ive already got a pair of rear 172 cup dampers that i ordered last year, Noticed the genuine front 172 cup dampers were out of stock at RPD, checked...
ive had 3 tuned ones now, all running around 160lb/ft - one had a slipping the clutch the other 2 didnt, so i think its safe to say if the clutch is in good condition they are fine around that torque figure. not sure about going any further.
Awesome as always, im a big fan of the black plastic spoiler, especially after a coating with some trim restorer! even though colour coding was all the rage many moons ago!
