All 197's and 200's had the revo-knuckle type hub carriers.
197 cup chassis was shocks and springs, red calipers and anthracite wheels
200 cup chassis was shocks and springs, quicker steering rack, red calipers, anthracite wheels and I think anti-roll bar was thicker.
Why do you have an LSD anyway? Seems overkill on a 200 unless boosted!
I wasn't specifically saying for this issue, just the whole lot in general. You've posted about a poor idle speed, puling to the left, and now this. Seems a lot to be dealing with on a 2011 car.
lol @ mute
Have we really had mapping SO bad that it's caused catastophic damage? Was the owner able to prove and do anything about it? (was it yours @Cub.?)
It's a 182, with one of the cup packs, but not the other. But that's a bit of a mouth full, so 182 will do.
Even Full Fat isn't a proper term. You couldn't walk into Renault and ask to buy a 182 FF.
I think there's a bit of jumping to conclusions going on in here!
Theres no way of us knowing why it's burning oil at this stage, it could be rings yes, but it could be a multitude of other thigs too.
@alex1992 - if you aren't mechanically minded my suggestion would be to get the car to a...
I used to use a PC connected to my TV as a media centre. It was great, worked well etc but the PC was too noisy. In the end I moved to my current set-up with my PC in the garage working as a server for Plex and my TV is a Samsung Smart with Youtube, a browser etc etc all built in.
Don't...
So that means you can only use text speak does it? I know plenty of dyslexic people and they all manage to type a readable sentence.
Anyway, back to the topic at hand, do you have any more info to give or are we meant to magically resolve it with what we have?
Clutch may not have been changed, it will depend on how it's been treated. A clutch can do 200k+ if treated with repect, hammer it all the time then <50k.
What was the noise like on idle. Was it like the video, sounding a bit like a diesel or was it more of a ticking noise? The injectors are...
2 things, we need to know more information. Firstly, has it always done this, just started, is the servicing up to date etc? Can you describe the problem any better?
Secondly, please for the love of god type properly! The harder it is to read the less likely you are to get a reply.
It's only the pads that are brembo as far as I can see. It's just clever wording making you think it's the discs too. They're probably cheap discs that have been machines.
Avoid and speak to the trader on here that sells discs and pads (his names escapes me, someone will be along soon)
I was going to post about this! Either it wasn't a 535d or it was broken. Even the older ones are 400+ lb-ft of torque and 70+ is what they are good at.
Coolant - you want Renault Type D, I don't think there is anything else that matches it. If you put the wrong stuff in it can make a mess.
Oil, something that meets RN0710, RN0700
I can get you the 20% discount applied if you want @JP83. I get the discount for working for the NHS, and can have up to 4 friends and family - nobody in my family is on Voda so they are going unused.
PM me if interested
I really meant in between cleans, etc. The 30 minutes or so while you are washing the car should be ok. Are they genuine Valet Pro ones? could be cheapo's. Where you getting them from?
I've got the Samsung smart remote. I use the pointer all the time, it's like using a Wii remote. I've used the voice recognition before, but it's a bit of a novelty that soon wears of!
On there site you can choose 'Standard UK plates' and in the t's & c's they state '
Number plates ordered from our Standard UK Plates section are manufactured to BS AU 145d standard and comply with UK legislation'
You'll be fine with them as long as you choose the std plates.
