Fitted my door trims, and I'm a little unsure... As they're not genuine alcantara the colour is a fair bit darker than the door cards. Doesn't look too bad when on a headlining away from other alcantara, but upclose i'm not sure it looks quite right? Thoughts? DSCN0103 by Louis Walker, on...

Negative lead I guess he means.

Car battery, car key battery, reprogram key, fuses, relays.

Your battery is charged.. Right? Did your alarm sound when you opened the door with just the key?

Not done a lot recently to be honest! I bought some spare door pillar trims off @ashley_t and retrimmed them tonight in some suedette as to match my a pillars when I get round to fitting both of them. Got some pictures but will take some more tomorrow once fitted. I also bought a flush fit...

That a fake turbo noise?

Didn't even fit it straight ;) It's not possible to damage a decoder ring is it? I'd do the cheap things, replace the battery in your clio and your key, then if it happens again it'll be a new uch? Think there's a big white fuse/relay too that can get manky, maybe check they're all good. Do some...

You hadn't used a code reader had you? I know it's weird, but when the code readers plugged in and i remove it, often the car wont fire up straight away. Have to wait a little while until it sorts itself out. It's not coincidental as it happened a few times. I have no idea otherwise, i'm not...

Try that key and if it's the same problem its a different ball game.

Immobiliser imho, lights not going out by the looks of it?

Wasn't saying it was the cover, was just saying eliminate the risk of it ever shorting.

The likelihood is probably really slim, but i'd rather not risk it. The idea of a piece of metal over my exposed battery terminals isn't a fun one. They're like a tenner new anyway. Try upload to flickr and post the link.

You might want to get a new plastic cover for your positive terminal as if you're running marcs battery cover you dont want the battery shorting. Not sure on your other problems though, not an immobiliser problem is it? The lights going out yeah?

Looks decent does that! Just got to do the headlining next ;) you still sending some over to me mate?

Yeah your car looks alright too i suppose ;) Happy to retrim you some A-pillars if you want. Just cover postage ££

Retrimming the A-pillars is a doddle! Try retrimming a headlining..

Does someone keep breaking into it?

Think i've only used them once on the m62 before.

Yeah they definitely work. Just didn't really seem to do much last time I used them.

clio foglights are shite.

Yeah, but he keys hang off the cap.

Well I managed to get the fuel guard rail off without removing the inlet manifold. All in all it would probably have been quicker removing the manifold but oh well. I removed the rail, unpopped those b*****d clips, and wiggled the rail out. The injectors looked awful and i cleaned them with...

I have a misfire on my 1.2, and replacing the coil pack hasn't solved it. I thought the next best plan of attack was to swap injectors to see if the problem follows. Do i need to remove all the inlet manifold to do this? Seems like a ballache to just swap an injector around. I have ordered some...

weirdo

Where do you put your cap? Do you put the key in, then remove the cap, then twist and remove the key, then put the cap on the roof, then put key in again and twist, then put on car and remove key?

The little hook that's in the fuel cap for holding your keys when you remove the cap. Such a lifesaver, love it.

Was worried that was mine then as the last 3 letters look like yyj. Mines not a 54 plate though.

I'll take the new RS badge if you're selling ;)

Isn't that exactly where the gearbox refill/overflow is? So could just be oil from when it was filled? Mine is the same there.
