when mine used to play up I used to unplug the 3 plugs from the bottom of the UCH and leave it for an hour then re connect, this would make it work flawlessly for a month before starting again, I just lived with it but I believe it was the UCH on its way out, similar issues with fast flashing...

I would be worried about fitting a fmic to mine as I seen how hot it was getting in the summer when it was 25c outside and I was out a blast, I couldn't touch the bonnet!

My tuned one ran a bar so at a guess half a bar or so, not much!

Uch isn't as big an issue as people make out either these days, my mate had one fail, found someone online who repairs them, sent it away a few days later if was back, refurbished and working perfectly

Lovely mate, I love iceberg silver, I had an iceberg as my first fast car in 2005 loved every minute of it!

Usually just hides my 3 year old rolling about in the back as the car seat is in my car

I would say that's expensive, by the time you spend £300/400 putting a set of xenon's, washers, wheel Refurb on it to get it back to normal, then service it, then it's going to need a belt change before you sell it say in a year or 2, doesn't make it good value unless I'm reading into it too much!

Vvt only activates once certain perimeters are achieved, coolant temperature being one of them. The RS tuner activates vvt from cold which is why the cars drive so much better down low with an RS tuner map. From the factory even from new they were notoriously bad from cold start due to this. I'm...

As above there is the option to datalog and have a custom map but then you have the customer service issues flagged, that would make me wary. The off the shelf 98ron map or groupe n what ever it's called suits breathing mods so exhaust and filter, matched inlets etc. Still a bit of a compromise...

Broken Aircon also points towards a possible shunt, any time I've fixed a front end shunt for someone they have always told me to leave the Aircon to save cash! Tbh that's not good value at that cash needing a service (long overdue probably) bits missing and needing a wheel Refurb

As above, bluefin from superchips is a bit more expensive at £300 but worth the money imo, their figures are conservative or should I say realistic but great experience from me on my dci65, and 80 and my birds MK4 dci90 is fantastic with their map too. As above the fuel pump really isn't under...

That's a full fat since it's black with what appears to be cup packs. Sounds like best case scenario someone has robbed the xenon's off it before trade in, worst case scenario it's had a front end, a give away is usually if the stickers at either side of the air vent above the front reg plate...

I wouldn't let ecotune draw a map of my garden. Made a royal c**t of my motor after charging me £450 for the privilege, it went back 3 times for them to try and rectify before I got Renault to flash it back to standard. They didn't even write the map they just uploaded some file from Greece...

Generic in the sense that it's one size fits all but very well developed in the first place, not many places are messing with the vvt etc to improve cold running etc

Odd I had a Y with 259mm

Doubt anyone will steal mine

Rare you need to use the s**t customer service though

Is it a Y reg?

My GT dci let out a trail of sparks when it was a couple of months old and sat flat out in 6th for a few minutes

I thought the cup ones felt a little cumfier and more supportive as the fabric wasn't as tight as the alcsntara if that makes sense. lighter too without the airbags

Swap it with a 66 plate onwards with the Matt finish looks much better than the tacky chrome. There was a facelift surround with the much nicer centre vents that went for £25 last week on eBay I just missed it for our banger

Odd for a 16v to be running that size is it a ph1 Clio?

www.fastchip.nl is the official website, everything you need is there

No graphs but the RS tuner transformed my ph1 more than it did on my ph2s! I was well impressed

Can't get the video to play, knock on throttle is probably an injector stuck open. Replace or find a diesel specialist to rebuild them

It's years since I seen one with the smaller discs I assume it's a 8v model? Should be a case of front hubs, calipers, discs and front shocks as I'm sure the smaller disc models use 52mm bolt spacing on the front shocks as opposed to 58mm

Aunt Bessie's. As above post cat just checks cat efficiency. RS tuner map is what u always use.

That turned out lovely! Good job

I'd just use dci80 bottom end, I don't rate the jr5 always felt it ruined the dci100 that's why I preferred my 80. A Jc5 with 4th engine mount is perfect imo

They are all 1.5 dci, but I don't think they have any value 2nd hand as they are locked to the car and need unlocked.
