    182 popping exhaust in 2nd gear

    Mine does this with my Yozza when cold . I think it's just a bad join either between the centre section and olive joint on the Cat or the exhaust manifold and Cat , not sure which . Once it's warmed up it stops . I'm assuming that the exhaust expands just that little bit when it's hot and it...

    G3 Clay mitt! Amazing (Few Photos)

    Anything that is easier , quicker and gives the same/better results has got to be a winner for me :smile: I never tried it on my alloys , but i tried it on the glass though and it lifted alot of contaminants off there too . Another very easy good product to try is hyrdo2lite . You might want to...

    G3 Clay mitt! Amazing (Few Photos)

    3 for 2 at Halfords so works out at £8.66 each :smile: Use it like a wash mitt , you don't need to apply any pressure , basically the weight of the sodden clay mitt and your hand is enough pressure ...

    G3 Clay mitt! Amazing (Few Photos)

    Nice to see somebody else who thinks the G3 clay mitt is a good product . So easy to use with fantastic results , so much easier and quicker than using a clay bar . I got slated off the detailing Police on here the other day for saying how good it is lol :wink: . They said it can't possibly give...

    Exhuast mounts help

    Genuine Renault ones or cheapo ones off ebay , they all sag after a while . I got some new ones , put a couple of cable ties through the rubber hanger and around the bracket because the rubber does tend to peel away from the metal after some time. Then I filled in the gaps with high temp...

    removing wax etc

    Ok , you and your chuckling experts . You have your opinion based on " physics " . I have my opinion based on fact . I'm gonna leave it at that . Because like I said previously , CS never changes as the years roll by :tonguewink:

    removing wax etc

    Looks like War n Peace part 2 to me . Like I said , I'm not an expert Chap . I'll ask you a question JD . I would like an honest answer . Have you actually used the clay mitt I posted a link to ? And I most definitely don't claim to be an expert in anything . I can only give my honest ...

    removing wax etc

    I must be talking out of my ring piece then or it's just a figment of my imagination . I can only go off my experience . The car IS tar free , free of any other contaminants too, just as it would be if I'd used a clay bar . And it most definitely hasn't suffered any marring. Where did I even...

    Well it didn't mar on mine . And seeing that the OP has exactly the same colour as me , if he uses it correctly he should be fine :tongueout:

    removing wax etc

    Mine was covered in tar and other contaminants , especially around the bottom of the doors , sills , rear wheel arches , the clay mitt removed all of it effortlessly and it was like glass when finished, better than when it was new . If you're a lazy f**cker , same as me , try these 2 products I...

    removing wax etc

    It Won't mar your paintwork if used correctly . I used a bucket of strong shampoo as lubricant and one bucket of clean water to rinse after so many passes , you only need to use light pressure , basically the weight of the wet mitt and your hand , no need to press on . So much easier than...

    removing wax etc

    Polishing should remove the wax . Another good product to use would be the hydro2lite . I've got it on on my Arctic blue , it's still beading really well . Also try a clay mitt instead of clay , takes about 1/10th of the time to clay your car than traditional clay ,it's so easy to use ,you'll...

    reccomend me some stuff

    Its very shiny , considering it hasn't seen any polish / wax products since last November . Like i said previously , one of the guys at work asked if I'd just washed the car . It's a must have product imo .

    reccomend me some stuff

    Try some Hyrdo2lite . Fantastic stuff , beads as good as any wax I've used . This pic was taken about 15 mins ago . The car was last washed over 3 weeks ago . Someone at work last night actually commented on it and asked if I'd just washed it . It's probably one of the easiest products you'll...

    Farcela G3 Clay mitt

    I got round to using the Clay mitt today . What a brilliant and easy thing to use . I washed the car first with my trusty 17 year old Karcher pressure washer , water only . Then connected a 25 litre fermenting bin with approximately 2 capfulls of shampoo and 2 capfulls of snow foam then gave it...

    Manifold to cat blowing

    If the new manifold to Cat kit has been fitted correctly it shouldn't really blow now . The only way to really tell whereabouts it's blowing from would be to get it up on a ramp or get under the car with the engine running and have a look , put your hand near the joints and feel for it blowing ...

    Manifold to cat blowing

    Standard 182 exhaust and Cat ? They blow from the olive joint where the Cat meets the centre section . It's a common problem , crap design . You could try a new exhaust clamp and some high temp silicone sealant . Some people do away with the oilve joint altogther and have a piece of tubing...

    Farcela G3 Clay mitt

    I knew i only needed one mitt . I only bought 3 mitts because of their 3 for 2 offer and I didn't really need anything else . I'm going to offload 2 of the mitts to 2 guys at work for 9 quid each lol . The paintworks in pretty decent condition for a 9 year old car that has only ever had...

    Farcela G3 Clay mitt

    I've seen lots of positive things said about the clay mitt , even from people who are quite skeptical , then their opinions have changed after using them . I'm not sure it could be called a quick fix as such , just a newer method / alternative to traditional claying . I was hoping to give it a...
