I've got a scenic with the usual egr valve blocking problem, it's a euro 4. Is it as simple as remove egr and fashion a blanking plate from alloy to cover the hole leaving the egr plugged in if I want to delete it?

Standard is standard for a reason I guess, it's feels so much better now its back to standard on the rough roads around here. Anyone for some camber bolts?

All done, going back to standard camber is so much better on the roads around here too

I am OK to just re use the original metal collar and the upper rubber bush though aren't I add they aren't really a critical/wearing part

I've just reused the metal collar and the upper (engine bay side) rubber bush. I'm now thinking I've put the drivers side bearing in upside down so that's tonight's entertainment sorted

Just replaced my top mounts and there seems to be a change in design. My old ones had a metal collar inserted down through it that was missing in the new ones. Then the final part(inside the engine bay) in my old ones came as one with a raised collar that went over the but that holds the shock...

Auto correct gremlin! I wondered if there was a guide distance.

My drive is far from flat, I swindon if there was a guide distance from the inner tie rod.

I'm putting new top mounts on tonight and track rod ends and I'm returning to standard camber. Is there a rough way of setting it somewhere near if I can't get out of work to get it properly tracked so I can drive to work until my next days off?

Thanks that's made my mind up, it's coming off

I'm going to be replacing track rod ends and top mounts and I'm considering going back to original camber. Has anyone else gone back to standard and did it make much difference. I'm finding it very unstable on rougher streets/roads.

Wish I'd known George did them, I got mine from eBay for £52 genuine Bosch.

Fixed! It was the pre cat lambda sensor. now 0ppm Co. And a plus is that it seems to go better and the reset trip is up to 43 mug after my 30 mile round trip to work which was previously 39

Thanks

And it will be pre cat causing the problem?

Ah cheers, no difference in cable length then?

Is there a difference between the two lambda sensors, which do I need

Is that the one I need? Is it pre cat that I need? Thanks for the help by the way!

Where is the best place to get one? Pre cat?

Might that explain the fact it feels like its holding back a bit more than normal when it's cold?

What does exhaust emissions lambda after 2nd idle too high mean?

Not sure but it passed the Hc apparently just the c02 if failed on oh and high level brake light failed. They said give it an oil change and thrash it before next test. Is an oil change really going to help, it is due one this summer.

Hi, my 182 has just failed on emissions, the readings from the two tests they ran were- C02 7.06 then 6.62 Hc 236 then 186 Second test seemed to have been 15 mins after the first. In all fairness I forgot to warm it up before the test, it's a standard cat with scorpion. Any ideas how to get...

My 182 lmu and head unit are having I few problems. First of all the stalk control stopped working then the display only works intermittently. In all honesty I haven't had it apart to see if there is a loose connection just wondered if this is likely or is it something else.

Exactly!

Would love to mate. exactly what I thought, how hard can it be?! And every time they get the flippin heat on my tre's

Ultimately I'm paying good money to get tracking done and if they are having a problem getting the steering wheel straight surely for the 50 quid it cost the least they could do is check nothing has play in it. They have just mot'd it so and play should have been spotted by them and I've just...

Well it has no play in any joint and it was tracked fine until I put camber bolts on and asked them to correct my tracking, they have gone from right hand from to go straight to left hand down. I'm aware tracking isn't as simple as the inner track rods showing equal thread though...

I wish i had more choice, is there a rule for number of rotations of the track rod to effect x amount of change? As it's tracked it's just a matter of me equally altering either side

Why can't my local tyre place get my steering wheel straight when doing my tracking. I've been back twice now and it's still 1-2 inches off straight. They also always blow torch the crap out of my track rod ends. Might just alter either side myself
