I agree with fred so long as you let each one flow a fair bit of fluid out then it doesn't matter. The problem is most people don't let enough air run out particulay out of the rear brakes.

To remove the bumper 1 bolt on the inside of the bumper I fget which way they face there just the one one each side though. There the 4 or so bolt holding the bumper cover bit to the subframe although you can unclip the plastic bit instead if you want. Then there the bolt under the bonnet...

The original belt was originaly designed to last 72k but they failed that much and sicne when it fails 99% of the time it takes out the camebtl so its new engine time Renault chnaged it to 36k and there been few problems ever since. IMO never ever least the belt on regardless of condition.

You won't see much. Have you tried the dashboard trick shows how much fuel the pump is pushing when your driving along. Does the car idle well? Check your spark plug they might be dirty indicating overfuleing hence a MAp or lambeda sensor possible problem.

Nope unless you'vve got s seriously mess up car fuel would have to flow thw wrong way in your maniofld which is impossible.

Try about 33psi front and 32 rear some people like higher pressure some like a bit lower.

You could strip the seat cover off and fix it is the easy option. Or easier leave it or buy one of these back mounts that you see advertised for older people to give a bit more back support.

What sort of boost is that TD04 running at any idea on what spec /trim it is? Shame you cannot hold the oque longer. Still very quick car though. Have you done any more track days in it?

John2modiefied on here is running group buy on KK coilovers at the moment might be worth looking at prices. Even his normal prices are cheaper the DemaonTweeks or he will coptere in no less favourable terms.

Chris you want those mounts putting higher up as per this picture otherwise you'll injour your back in a crash as it pulls you spine tight.

Nope you can get 60mm springs normally. You cna get custom springs made up if you realy wanted to. I'd never recomend just springs though the damers were out quicker the ride isn't ideal either.

They can use the alloys itself depend on the setup they have. Yep to adjust the tracking you need to get the car over a pit or up the air to get to the track road ends.

The 172/182 ARb won't fit plus its not the stifest they made the 1.6 16V and diesel 1.5 models have the stiffes at 24mm the 1.2 is 22 mm and the 172 23mm (not exactly sure if there the mm sizes). The Rs won't fit anway since the wishbones are different.

Williams are quite a bit differetn 16V yep but 2.0 bottom ends. Good cars the Rsi's very much underrated the 1.8 16V and Williams saw to that. Personaly first things I'd sort are all new bsuhes ball joint etc tiidy up the stock spec first. The williams forum is veyr good more Mk1...

Thats big money hope you've got deep pocked for all the other bis you will idealy want ie gearbox strenghting clutch mounts etc. Get a sequechail gearbox instead and some light engine tunning it will be quicker.

There not much realy problem stuff to ctach on there the one nut stickign thoguh the rear ach liner which you can se but thats about it I''d cut it down though to be safe.

Yep it shoul be you can usualy tell who quotes for it as the price is a lot higher with the belt.

Might be near the exhaust manifold or caught round something.

Check where your accelerator cable is routed.

TDC sensor most likly but could also be coil or possible spark plugs. Also might be the throttle body needs cleaning. There are other possible problem but they usualy cover 95% of problems.

Check the liners pushed in and you are running the right sized wheels bigger tyres will catch.

Sounds like the tdc sensors failing IMO. But as Fred said the list is a decinet list the 1.2 has a few problem areas.

A few people have your playing on Renault/the dealers wanting to kept customers though.

Why not do the tracking yourself no need to even get it on ramps if you've a flat level space. There no need to get the bumpers off or get scare though depends on the garage my local could do car even lower thn that the only trouble would be to get accross there bumpy car park. You need the...

Not sure about tingle there are quick but depends on you I've never been impressed I get bored quick I don't think mnay cars would make me think yep thats enough power. I wouldn't worry about owners on hre there are loads who take great care the cars are very relaible realy plus there laods...

Yep rally day insurance is an the option. But day normal insurance from dayinsurance.com is cheaper often £10 a day but you cannot use it to buy road fund so you'd ned to either get a policy then cancel it within 14 days and get your money back as you only need a certificate for the froad fund...

Renault have to prove the mod is responsible for the fault to refuse to pay. But dealers calim as such on your behaf so its down to there most don't care its difficult to prove lowering springs are to blame for new shock/ball joint sets. Many people on here have had coilovers (suspension work)...

£90 from Renault for a replacmetn oen I'm getting fed up of going throguh them next one I get is a 172 one and meshing it off. (I'd need a bigger one to ensure it keeps the engine cool with the reduced area) I've answered your other post and pasted all the text in there from the link.

Wrong area to ask this question but it in the forum guides section which is only for members acces ie a reason to join the club for £5 for the year. But this is what the thread says (I wrote it so I don't see why I cannot post it here). There one for alarms in there as well and CD player etc...

It was being worked on. Tubro 1.6 16V has already been done by an Italian tunning magaine/readers project car but they bodged it a bit IMO using a 5th injectors and the engine never was right the owner sold it and bought a 172 in the end. It was powerful though 160hp on nomal fule 200hp on high...
