    MOT fail

    I'm fairly trusting of the cat tbh as it's a genuine part not a pattern part. Is it normal for HC/CO to be so low? Seemed weird to me.

    MOT fail

    It's been running a decat for all my ownership so far, and the EML was always on then as it was tied up out of the way and the post-cat blocked off. When I use Torque (Fairly unreliable I know) it gives me bank 1 sensor 2, so i presume post cat? It could just be it's not had time to properly...

    MOT fail

    Been for my MOT today and unfortunately the car failed on 3 things... Handbrake efficiency, lambda reading too high, and headlight too low. I just fitted a genuine (used) cat to the clio, but kept the existing lambda sensors, however I'm led to believe that the post cat sensor may be failing as...

    Wiper blades hen running a sunstrip

    Any sunstrip worth getting is illegal as all will sweep into it on the wipers.

    New handbrake cables fitted today. Unfortunately a bolt snapped on the heatshield, and another had been snapped by a PO. Will have to get these drilled out properly as I don't know how much of a good job my cables ties will do. 20170222_141958 by Louis Walker, on Flickr Yep, snapped. New...

    Help with a knock

    Have you eliminated the knock potentially coming from an exhaust mounting? Probably something you've already done but just thought i'd put it out there! Sound travels weirdly so often you can think it's from one place when it's from another. Can you not recreate the knock anywhere with the car...

    Cat fitting kit

    Been looking to see if there's a comparable one with another car, as they're loads cheaper! Just many don't come with the actual gasket itself.

    Cat fitting kit

    Just bought a genuine kit, not worth the hassle and gives me a nice new gasket too.

    Cat /Manifold DIY fitting kit

    It's a PO who has bodged my cat fitting kit. One side looks like a genuine spring, the other looks like one that was lying around. Cheers for the link. I think i'll just go genuine though for now.

    What springs would you use with this? I'd use the ones on my kit, but the springs are both different...

    Cat fitting kit

    Just seen that one comprising of SS bolts on here.. Might try that, but i'd have to price it up for comparison.

    Cat fitting kit

    Just removed my decat in preparation for the removal of my handbrake cables/fitment of my cat and found that the fitting kit is basically missing all the parts apart from the spring, a washer and a nut. I had been hoping to re-use this really but it has a different sized spring on one side too...

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Replaced the glovebox/boot light with some LED's to match the rest of the cars lighting and got it up fairly high on axle stands ready for tomorrows replacement of handbrake cables/ fitting of cat. Plenty of penetrating oil was applied over everything in preparation, so hopefully i dont have...

    Can someone tell me what this is?

    Is it a connector for the side impact sensors? What car? Check under the seats right on the edge near the trim. I could be wrong.

    Jekyll's RB182 Progress Thread

    Great update Mark, thanks a lot for the pictures! The guide style handbrake replacement will definitely help when it comes to doing mine but it looks pretty self explanatory really, think rusty bolts will be the main issue. Am I right in saying that you've also blocked off the fuel breather with...

    Sounds decent if not too hard on your back! My decat will need removing anyway so kinda all fits into one job which is nice. I did have a look at the bolts today and they didn't actually look that bad. Will see!

    BG 182

    On a ramp? Looking forward to doing mine in the rain on my back 😅😂 I'll keep an eye out on your thread though mate to give me more of an idea on what I face. Might get some spray on those heatshield bolts tomorrow actually.

    Stunning car though, obviously gone to the right person to look after it! You've got quite the collection now.

    Horn Buggered

    Replace and get arch liners on ASAP. I know people run without them but you're just risking unnecessary water ingress. Vital on the driverside tbh.

    Cheers mate! :kissingheart: Wish my handbrake cables would hurry up and arrive. Cats also on its way, hopefully tomorrow before work but doubtful. Had drips from the decat - centre silencer today on a cold start which is just condensation I guess? Not a great sign it's blowing though. I'll take...

    There is a height adjuster at the front on the LHS. Make sure you're right down haha. Could be the makeup of the seat bases though too so you don't sink as much. Give them a measure.
