    197/200 Gearboxes...

    The boxes are fine they just don't stand up to people with no mechanical sympathy as well as others, worst case if its on its way out have it rebuilt and look after it and you will never have any issues again. You never hear of issues with the same box in the dci 106 as they are not thrashed...

    Renault Clio 1.5 dci 86 vs. 106

    86/88 feels quicker around town due to better low down grunt under 2000rpm. 106 pulls much better over 2000rpm and have the much better 6 speed box. I found the 106 was the same on fuel when driven lightly as the less power models, both driven hard the 106 gave a few mpg less. I was hard on...

    Gear stick movement

    I had loads in my DCI, changes all engine mounts with brand new genuine and it was better but still doing it, I was stumped as they were pretty tight when brand new. changed the worn track rod and track rod ends and it stopped, there was that much play in them that's what was causing it lol!!

    Goodyear Efficient Grip...

    no chance would I be buying T1R's over the Efficentgrip and I used to rate T1R's for the price. Twingos come with them from the factory and they have bags and bags of grip, we do 36k miles out the fronts on them too!!!!

    Chip's Tesco value cup project

    Chip's Tesco value cup project
