    Early Morning Trophy.

    Awesome, if there was ever a time for a Trophy then that it is! This was mine, 7 years ago, the morning after my bird told me she was pregnant and it felt like she had ruined my life! - It took all my worries away for a few hours! - The car is long gone and my not so little 7 year old turned...

    Sound bar recommendations

    I've never heard a sound bar I've thought sounded decent, but I suppose that's the point of them, compromised, neat and tidy. Amp and speakers all day for me.

    197 Cambelt swap question

    In the middle of my first F4R Cambelt, and I'm positive I read someone on here a while back (@Brigsy comes to mind?!) saying they go OVER the torque setting for the dephaser and exhaust cam nuts. I've had a search and cant find anything so I'm now doubting myself :ROFLMAO:

    Martin's 197 Lux Project

    Been ticking away at this when I get time between other jobs! 5hrs from starting to having the engine and box out I was quite happy with! Slave cylinder was leaking which was the cause of the loss of clutch pedal as expected, looks like its never had a clutch in its 80k miles and wasnt far...

    Awful metallic noise coming from belt side of the engine

    to me it sounds exactly like the fuel rail guard rattle, and the fact its only happening at idle and stopping when the AC raises the idle, to me points to that!

    Awful metallic noise coming from belt side of the engine

    Have you confirmed its definitely the AC compressor? does the noise come and go with the activation of the AC? As above just stick a second hand AC compressor on it. Make sure the fuel rail guard is tight as these can also cause a metallic rattle when they are loose

    172 MOT Fail - Emissions

    don't worry about the reg being wrong. That just needs a good warm up before test, surprized they didn't, We would have failed that, took it on a road test to warm it up and retested and passed.

    Help Me find a decat for 1.4L mk3 clio

    Martin's 197 Lux Project

    Boring update, not much been happening with it, I done a new AC condenser as it was leaking and done a re gas, so the AC works as it should. Was at the scrappys today getting some bits for my mk2s and picked up a pair of good condition ph2 rear lights!
