    TDC sensor loom

    I've been having issues with the tdc sensor causing the car to misfire. Think it's caused by the loom as I fitted a new bosch sensor two months ago. Got a quote from Renault of £117 to fit a modified loom. Does this sound like a good price?

    Engine running on

    My engine is running on after turning it off. Checked for vacuum leaks and engine temp is normal so I'm going to try some Winns/STP/Redex treatment to try decoking first. If that doesn't work are there any sensors that could cause this issue?

    Shall I get rid of the Monaco?

    Thinking of swapping the Monaco for a Megane 225 F1 Team. It's up at £10,495 and they've offered me £3,000 for the Monaco. The car drives well and they've agreed to repair curbing on a wheel, and scuffs on wing mirror, passenger seat mount and gear lever. Only thing left is to decide if I really...

    Crank Sensor

    Got a bad misfire and think I need a new crank sensor. Last time cleaning the sensor cured the problem but it's come back worse than ever, struggling to do 50, exhaust is popping and revs are jumping up and down wildly :dapprove: Is this a Renault only part or can I get it cheaper from a...

    Frontend Respray

    Going to get the frontend resprayed as not happy with all the stone chips. I've had a quote of £500 for bonnet, bumper, wings, mirrors and blend into doors. Had work done by the guy before and was happy with the results. Does this sound like a good price? Anyone else able to recommend a...

    Wheel Offset

    Sorry for another thread about offsets. I'm looking to buy some 15" wheels with an offset of ET36 but I'm worried this might be too much. Is anyone running this much offset on a 172? If so, how much is your car lowered by and do you get any rubbing? Cheers

    Painting bullets

    Is this the best method for painting the bullets? Prep, Grey primer x 2, wet sand, Monaco paint x 3, wet sand, touch up pen for numbers, lacquer x 2. Also do you just pull side strips towards back of car to remove them.

    Latest addition to my Monaco 172

    Fitted a Cup Spoiler this afternoon which involved a bit of swearing trying to get it to sit properly. Bought it off Laurence (VeinAST) already painted and with the correct brake light connectors for an excellent price. Makes a big difference to back of the car IMO :D Before: After:

    Matched inlets

    Took the plenum off yesterday to change my spark plugs. Have my inlets been matched or is it the bit that joins to the head that is badly matched? As far as I know they're not matched and I have had the car since March 2007.

    What car cradles and in-car chargers have you got?

    As above, need some suggestions for what to get. I'd like a cradle that I can plug the charger into and hide away the wire. The tomtom cradle would be ideal but screw paying 100 quid for it. Thanks in advance :)
