Re: My car is fcuked!!! Take it to a garage is your best option unfortunatly tryin to work out a problem like this isn't easy. Turning over refersto the engine starting.

I guess you have bigger wheel than what are normally fitted ie 16/17/18 etc if so thats will account for the ride and the rubbing. New pads and disks shoulnd't squeek unless there performace stuff maybe they weren't installed so there a nice tight fit or they used cheaper copy cat or they...

Re: My car is fcuked!!! Check if the engines turning over.

Sounds like your top mount was catching. As regards the belt ring enault Uk its supposed to be fine for 36k changing its a 2.1 hour job the belts onyl a few quid though. Say to Renault its not fit for purpoise if it only last 21k. Get it chnaged though if they say it needs it as if it fails it...

Both lambedas can be trouble the second one detects the emmisions after cat and most of the problems are form that. The first one always has to be connected otherwsie you'll trow error lights. The second (after cat one) could be disconnected on the 172 on the 182 due to different ECU...

Re: My car is fcuked!!! Already here. Whats happens when you turn the key do any lights come on etc? Does the imobiliser light go out? Can you heard the throttle body wirling the fule pump relays etc cutting in? There a multible of possible problems is the AUX belt under the bonnet in...

BenR's cat cams are the best. Turbo conversions are expensive.

The imobiliser has to be unlocked for the engien to start though so the cars infact unloked just the doors are unlokced. The problem legally is that you cannot under the road traffic act leave a car running with nooone sitting in the drivers seat on a public highway. If you start your engine...

Its warently so forget about it. Refuse to pay under all conditions get them to ring Renault UK.

If you did a seach you'd know that you should get it checked see what the fault it might just be a simple lambeda sensore failure as they do fail.

Yep propely desing stuff is better but Eisback for off the shelf stuff is the best.

Drop BenR an email his camcams arn't cheap but they will be the best for waht you want.

Thats not just the times Renault use. I'd say chnage disk and pads is a 1 hour job though bleeding brakes another half hour.

Its a fixed requirment that they chnage the AUX belt but few places know. Its been a rule for ages all phase 2's have it I think. AUdi/BMW/Merc all love charging a fortune. What did they charge you a nice cheap £250 or a "big" service at £500? Even that they always manage to find something...

Apex will give you the lower ride height but I'd got for handling so Eibach personaly then again I'd not bother spending on just springs save until you can afford to spend a bit on suspension IMO.

You can buy the buttons seperate I think.

Remove the rear seats and put a bar accross the rear strut tops then run the rear belts from there.

Blimy that a lot for labout its about 10 minutes to ch age that resiter pack at worst that labours for finding the problem and any decinet garages shgould have known thats a common problem.

They are good you'r just moving the weekness to more expensive parts new dogbones arn't that much.

Yep I'm sure they do.

A lot less than that I'd fit engine mounts for a living at that sort of timing. However that what many garages will tell but as said I'm not writing two sets of time otherwsie people will start complaining saying the guide says 10 minutes to fit bottom mount and it took me 2 hours etc etc etc.

Try blackcircle as well also they have a 5 or 7% discount on at the moment so they can work out chepaer with fitment that mytyres.

They have to point it out some people have complained that doors etc have come unpainted before now.

Re: Can we have?? Thats not a bad starter. Still a long way to go Fred since I've already got CG locks so should give others a chnace after all I won this prize last time.

Just ring the places up and explain the situation most of them will tell you to insure as a normal full fat but make a note on the policy that its a Cup. Trophy owners have the same problem that there cars arn't recognised as existing.

I know I did think of putting 2 times down for some jobs but at the end of he fday this is what a garage would often use.

It needs to be safe to whatever the minimum temperatrue will be I'd say so long as its OK to -15 your ok.

Thats not that bad realy.

Some oils are much better than other usualy in ithe case of track cars for example Vauxhall normal oil (the stuff they use at servicing) in my Williams used to go black and cook almost instantly on track. Millers oil didn't chnage colour it was fine. For most cars and uses there no need to spend...
