Mine stuttered and idled roughly on the two occassions I put 95 in it...making smooth progress in stop-start traffic was a right pain in the arse.
If its like that at tickover...it cant be doing too much good at 7500rpm...can it?
Turning the ignition on and off four times quickly in succession, followed by locking and arming with the plip will enable the alarm, but deactivate the ultrasonics.
This normally gives me four beeps, but I occassionally get three :confused:
I thought auto-wipers, along with auto-lights, and cruise control were one of the "must have" accessories?
Thats what all the full fat owners say while calling me a pauper anyway :devilish:
Are the auto-wipers a pile of sh*te then?
Grippy ones on the front, crap ones on the back, simple - understeer is bad, I prefer the options available from oversteer
Crap back tyres = lift-off-oversteer-heaven...and with 539s not snappy in the slightest, in fact, very progressive, and easily controllable.

^^^ errr...OS?
Not really getting anywhere with this am I LOL
Am I resigned to having to take 3 crates of beer with me to each trackday, so that I can stuff them in my passenger footwell to get the corner weights right?
TBH, Im so comfortable/dialled into my tyre pressures et al, that I...
I look at it this way...
Weight distribution is approx. 65% front / 35% rear
Total weight is approx 1,000 kgs - so thats 650kg on the front...
...or 325kgs each side unladen.
Stick me in the drivers seat and you get NS 325kgs / OS 400kgs - that would explain why it locks NSF when solo, but...
Corner weighting? Anyone have a set of corner scales?
So I need take 37kgs from the right side of the car...and move it to the passenger footwell? Or is that a bit simplistic?
Standard suspension, 539s (as always), 29F/33R...
Why do I want/need adjustment across the front axle?
My car runs empty i.e. no sh*t in it at all, all the time, the back is stripped out, and its rare that I drive with a passenger.
When braking hard solo, I consistently get the front left locking, way before the right does. When two up...
Im with NU and declared my ITG panel as a direct replacement to save money at service time - no £14 paper filters for me.
When asked if it increased performance I said I had no idea...I was doing it to save money!
They noted it, but there was no premium increase payable.
From what youve said it sounds to me as though your fuel guage needle is busted...for it to still read 1/4 tank when the computer (correctly) shows dashes and a warning light isnt right at all.
Yup...once you dial into the Cups traits you can take liberties with it...and it IMHO would take a pretty tidy driver out on a trackday in a NA VX220 to really pull away.

Would love to have a run out with one...where are you going?
Nice pics.
Can a Clio have an M3? I chased and went round one at Goodwood last December - the driver of it came up to me to shake my hand afterwards - theyre far from invincible if you get a slightly weaker driver in one :D
