Yep LV should be fine with those mods so long as they know about them.
No idea on better sounding exhaust etc I prefere a quiet car there arnt many mods out for the dci though like this there is an panel filter but thats it as far as I know.
I rang them up last month for a quote (22 yrs old) and they said the modification deal still stood.
CIS are good but particularly if your not the main driver.
All new cars will have knock sensors to detect any knocking of the fuel due to it being of poor RON quality.
Engines need to be designed to take advantage of higher RON fuels otherwise they wont make any more power.
Hum vvt means nothing regards running the engine in its not much more than a gimic in my viw in the 2.0 Clios this VVT.
Best idea is to bed it in hard.
PS jet engines arent run in there tested though as they need to prove the efficiency of the engine as RR etc supply engine with a set sfc if...
Ring them Up liverpool Victoriia are fine with and mods so long as they know about them and they dont increase the cc of the engine.
Also try More Than they allow any mods so long as they dont make the car faster.
The Civic is in the next hot hatch group there is quite a price jump to a CTR and many people cannot aford (or are willing to spend) the extra for a Civic. The Clio alos have a weight advantage on its side as its about 10% lighter so can keep with it in a ace plus the weight reduction should...
I remember your thread I think you all confused us all with your superier tech knowedge and baffled most of us. Most people need simple bolt this on and its better sort of description.
£550 is cheap to some and expensive to others. Would people spend over £2.5k on a Clio setup then? sounds...
I have been thinking some coilovers as if your going to spend a bit might as well go the whole way.
Anyway I think quite a few other people have been interested in buying them but the £550 price tag is a bit of putting (understanderable).
Who would be interesed in a group buy they would be...
If you break the terms and conditions you agreed to when you signed up then you can be banned. Also if you change your email address and it cannot be checked I think you are also banned until it can be proved.
Get it back to the dealer the ABS comes on when its failing so it could have been anything from a one off to a faulty sensor etc. If the abs works fine Id get it booked in asap but no big worry otherwise.
Soory Ive got a 5 second memory.
You cannot warp disks realy what you have done is got the brakes hot and then when stopped still kept your foot on the pedel and the pad has meted to the disk.
Stick with the £50 uprated OE ones Tom has mentioned in my view.
Anyone any idea why this could happen to the dci engiens mine seems to be leaking fluid but Renault have pressure checked it and said there is nothing wrong.
If I told you the problems which can occure youd never buy one.
There excellent engines very few problems compaired to the 1.2 16V.
Rust shoulndt be an issue realy as most bits which rust are plastic. Plus the oldest one is still insides its paint warently I think so I wouldnt be to worried...
Go on buy it you know you want to dont let these petrol heads get the wicked ways on you become a diesel head (we are a bit of a rarity on the forum).
Wait till you get some more miles on it as well it gets better.
For people who doent think a dci could be as quick as a 182 round a track...
The mk1 isnt supposed to be as bad as it was made out just be careful and youll be fine some different springs and dmapers will help though.
The mk2 has quite a few changed bit you could swop them over but it wont be cheap or easy new subframe etc.
I believe TWR or whatever they were called...
The computer is very accurate according to my calculation. It was 0.5 % overreading after 20k which isnt bad at all.
I nevcer let my car go below half tank so no idea if my fuel light works.
dci 80 then they make about 85hp in real life.
Go for a dci spend the money you save on coilovers, remap some proper driving practice on the track and youll be quicker than a 182. And a lot better off.
Ooops soory only just found out Ive got quite a few new messages.
Will reply later got to go for me tea.
No idea why the system never told me Ive got new messages soory.
Best ring somene up who is cheaper Im sure its just the idler tightener that needs replacing but if there doing that might as well have the belt changed.
Try GDI for a better price and service than Renault.
Might be the anti roll bushes need greasing.
You cannot as far as I know get the 100 with free insurance.
Might be worth looking at a 65 or 80 there much cheaper.
The 100 is way to overpriced in my mind get a 80 and remap for 105hp is much less.
