Yup, I thought about having a look for a new set as i couldn't be arsed polishing mine, turns out the PN on them, Isn't a current PN according to Renault - but then found it, they were £650 a side and there was loads of different variants (i have the bi-xenon directional) and are NLA from...
Well i have just pinged them an email, keep the same board but upgrade the cpu to a AMD Ryzen 7 5700X - 8 Core 3.4GHz / 4.66 GHz Turbo 32mb L3 Cache processor Pro OC Compatible - No onboard graphics but have the GPU for that
Its already ordered up etc, thank you for the input etc tho much appreciated. it's def moved on alot since a faffed about with PC's way back when.
Like everything with these things, they are always jumping and moving forward. As long as i shoot up the yanks on GTA i'll be happy ha ha
And all of that is over my head 🫣 it'll do for now for the amount i will do on it etc, it'll do the now for current games etc i reckon and not be to bad, if it's really that bad i'll have a look at saving up. The whole set up there is less than £800, thats also including a tower. Mear chump...
So about 20 years ago i built a pretty good PC, but that has long gone, looked into building another, but it seems to be far cheaper to just buy a built PC than build your own. Well anyway - i've just specced the following, Just as entry, will look at upgrading RAM and Processor eventually, but...
My Mate was there in his MK4 trophy - Bald as f**k and massive beard 😅 He's there and at the ring all the time. Photos on his insta looked like it was a good time had, and the weather held up all right.
Yeah, may also have the plastic pipe up to the airbox aswell. I'll nip out to the shed and get pics and PM you buddy. I had an engine cover aswell, but @Brigsy got that off me.
Get a shot of a hoist and whip the whole lot out? My neighbour loves doing engine changes on transits (Don't ask - but we've managed to do 4 engines out in a day, a really really long day) Plus get to clean up all the engine and box while its out :ROFLMAO:
Nearly £4k for a refurbished box!!! Just buy another car for that, they seem to be interested in pushing Hyundai and fiat 500's just now. For the work you do on the cars you have had and have, i'd take the pain on taking it out and doing yourself. Easier said than done tho.
Daft Thought, have you tried cleaning the UCH with some IPA - worth making sure circuit boards are as clean as possible. Highly doubt it will work, but if any slight moisture hiding on the board that will get rid.
Its Late - And looking through the net trying to find details of the plugs under the seats for airbags etc, has anyone got any pictures of them handy? I'm guessing at some point there was buckets in and when interior got put back in just joined cables instead of getting the plugs. I like to do...
Having read a few posts on here, i am lead to believe the UCH controls alarm etc and locking and unlocking of car? the problem i have is that you basically have to be standing right next to the car to unlock/lock.
i have changed the battery in the key it's self thinking this may be an issue...
I was quoted £450 for it to be sorted with an aftermaket one, although i don't have a 197 no more lol, But it could vary depending on what is wrong, could be flexi, could be manifold crack? need to get under and have a butchers - then get a to a specialist to see what they will charge?
Totally get where your coming from, but they were really bad - whether or not i wasn't going at them enough so never went crazy mad i don't know, but as said it worked for me and all i had at the time lying round. I need new lights anyway due to them being buggered inside with the clips burst...
