    One for Rich or anyone else? Colour magic and stone chips?

    Thanks Rich. Tried it not too bad. Touched up plenty but SRP always seems to get stuck in. I'm using Megs pads and MF cloth to wax. How much pressure should I apply when using pads. Always been quite gently as only used cloths before put these pads seem good and very soft. Cheers.

    Where should I be looking for it. Ph1 Well it sound like it's from rear. Taken out spare wheel and toolkit. Parcel shelf off, no junk in door panels and glove box empty. All seatbelts in reatiners and tried cliped in. Er. Moved seats and that. It's like a clicky sound. Sligthy metal.

    I have a few little rattles but my hearing isn't so good. It's from the rear end but just want a few pointers as to what other people have found to cause rattles.

    filthy alloys?

    Tried AutoSmart acid cleaner. Made wheels dull and still didn't pull it off. SRP no better but got some of the shine back. It's one wheel. Maybe a refurb but then the rest will look bad!

    Dogbone bottom engine mount will a Ph2 one fit on a Ph1 since it's cheaper!

    Hi Dan. Er what do I ask Renualt for then. I will fit myself and I need to know the parts to ask for cause they are only really helpfull when I'm looking for them to do stuff. Do you know prices as well by any chance?

    One for Rich or anyone else? Colour magic and stone chips?

    Hi. I currently have Autoglym SRP, EGP, Bumper care, Vinyl care, Leather cream, Zymol shampoo, and some Colour Magic black. Now someone said since my bonnet has quite a few stone chips (ph1 miles!) I should use some Colour magic on the bonnet and then seal with EGP. Don't seem to see...

    Nice one. Will get the Hillpower one probably then. Cheaper than Renault. Thanks for your help Russ and Fred!

    It's your posted that pointed me to the solution so thanks mate. I've e-mailed him but will ring on Monday if I've not had a reply. I name dropped you, hope you don't mind. Best bit is HillPower is within driving distance of me! Mind you that could mean I spend more money than I should!

    Dogbone bottom engine mount will a Ph2 one fit on a Ph1 since it's cheaper!

    Basically the title says it all. I think I need one since then engine bangs in first (sounds near footwell) tried adjusting top mounts but still there. Apparently the ph1 one is £75 but the twisted ph2 one is £33. K Tec only do that one so I was wondering if one will fit the other. E-Mailed...

    Exhaust rattle in 1st on bumpy road about 4k

    Right. Had a new bracket for exhaust but then the middle pipe split so I got a stainless steel fitted. Thing is it rattles so I took it back to ETS. The original didn't. The guy put some more rubbers in the bracket and some tie wraps. The back box seems quite stiff now. Drove down street and...

    SEAT owners hating clios!!!!

    Good point and there is plenty of arguments as to which is best out of the two! Who turned all the Clio owners to arguing which is the best 172/182 etc. Kinda missed the point eh.

    SEAT owners hating clios!!!!

    What ph1 is the original! They are lighter for a start. They had to change gear ratios on ph2 to keep 0-60 times. If you want a load of extra crap that don't make you go any faster then go ahead. I mean cruise control cause of electronic throttle, I'd rather have cable throttle response. Then...

    filthy alloys?

    I tried AutoSmart Ali clean. Did insides good but still feel rough when try and wax them. Can't quite get them to gleam! Is clay that good compared to acid?
