Checked over my car today before setting off down the motorway to see family. Got the torque wrench out to click the wheel nuts and instead one stud decided it didnt want to be fastened to the car anymore 😂 Nipped round to see @Pudding of Yorkshire who gave me a spare one. That's a job for...

CSF 2021 is gonna need a boxing ring.

I'll give this a go. Nightmare if the clutch is faulty after so little time.

No issues with actually engaging the gears, it's all straight and OK. There is some paint off the top of the reverse plate but it never pops out. It does knock on the tunnel when going into reverse, i was going to change the orientation of the bolt as think thats the only issue there. I've no...

I've hardly any rattle and I dont even notice it on normal driving upto 60. On the motorway it's a bit more pronounced. I have an oring to go under the lift up reverse collar so will try that first then have a look into your idea.

I ugga dugga my nuts all the time thank you. I'm just careful with my tools 👀

I asked him and he told me £35. I'd rather drop the b*****d

Clutch was a new valeo unit when the gearbox was fitted, from GSF so not 'genuine renault'. Might be in my thread somewhere actually or in our pms but i'm not sure off the top of my head! I dont know if notchy is the right word, it just feels like i'm right on the edge of every gear as it...

Had a poor gear selection for a while now and its getting a bit tiresome so thought i'd post up a thread. I was running a custom scenic shifter with the standard linkage and it felt quite 'notchy' into gear and sometimes was tough to get into first. Often when stopped in traffic I had to go...

Sorry I didnt put 't**t the throttle body with a big f**k off hammer' in my instructions.

Are you not allowed to sell cars anymore? I dont understand.

Just smash the brackets out the way.

The lubed up buttplug cone.

Swap for my 182?

Probably had a respray and theres been water in the gun? I have similar on my spoiler. I'd be more concerned about why its had paint.

Because in the volvo they had to factor in all the people the car would kill in an impact. In the mazda they just have to worry about you.

Dont think I could do the full 33 pages myself Rob 😂 Like to think the cars come a long way, and it's definitely helped me develop my own skills. Theres not really a job that would overwhelm me now, just the difficulty of having one car means time isnt always on my side. Sunstrip is a must...

Hope they didnt charge you twice if they were the one who ordered the part.

Pretty sure this is down to the inside CV hitting the block on the jr shafts?

I fitted a J&R boot on the offside around 2-3 years ago, then another in 2019 on the nearside. Be sure to cut off one rib from the large side and it'll be spot on. No idea how people have problems with them other than incorrect fitment! I use jubilee clips to hold them on.

Scrap it next.

Ignition stage two for 60 seconds Ignition off (but key kept in) for 30 seconds Ignition stage two for 30 seconds Ignition off (but key kept in) for 30 seconds Key removed, count to five, then try to fire up

So it fired up after changing the ECU, but just had a loud relay? All of the ecu, uch and key are a matching set? The decoder ring usually gives the flashing inmob light, but i think it's often just a bad key battery rather than a faulty ring. Try changing this first then unlock and lock the...

Pink slips?

Put the key in the ignition and leave it all the way right for 5 minutes. Usually works

Check your earths

Just because they're supposed to be that colour doesnt mean they should be 👀

Should have messaged me

Will be opening these later. How do I check for authenticity? I cant find a contact email for marelli to cross check part numbers annoyingly.
