    quick question

    It should have 205/45/16's regardless of the colour of alloys . The anthracite alloys were just part of one of the 2 cup pack options .

    RUK recall letter received today?

    The dealerships won't be pulling a fast one , they won't be footing the bill . Renault are footing the bill .

    RUK recall letter received today?

    Of course they'll rebook you in and check it out . It's a Renault recall , they'll be footing the bill not the dealership . Just get it sorted , sooner rather than later . Why risk it ?

    RUK recall letter received today?

    You're sure you booked it in ? But can't remember when or where lol ? If you have the recall letter just ring your local dealer , get it booked in " again " and make note of the date then turn up . Better than risking your bonnet flying open and potentially writing off your car or worse :S

    Another victim of renaults incompetence

    Your alarm will only tell you if your bonnet isn't actually closed . Not that the catch has actually operated as it should and is holding the bonnet locked in place . Hope you get some joy out of Renault , but i doubt it . Like they've never acknowledged that there is an issue with the steering...

    Gutted for ya mate . Hope you can get it sorted . But if the roofs f**ked it's not looking good unfortunately :(

    Another victim of renaults incompetence

    I've always lubricated my bonnet catch on a regular basis . It wasn't showing much signs of rust and i thought it was operating as it should , although on the odd occasion it never popped up as it should . Having taken it in due to the 2nd recall and having a new bonnet catch fitted FOC a few...

    Rear exhaust mount - dam bolts!

    In the long run it's probably a god send that the welds broke on the nuts . Looks a much sturdier job now , better than what Renault originally did :-) It's unbelievable just how weak the original rubbers are and the state they are in when you take them off , what a crap design . Did line up the...

    Rear exhaust mount - dam bolts!

    Nice one . That powerflex bush should outlive the car lol ;-) You ended up replacing the torx head bolts then ? I guess it's different on a 172 as you look like you've replaced them with nuts and some studs ?

    **show us Your Engine Bay**

    Your coolant looks very low , could do with a top up . If this is a recent pic ? Just sayin' ;)

    Rattling exhaust bracket

    £25 ? Ebay £6.45 , they're all crap quality rubber inside . Or just get a Powerflex exhaust mount , and replace the rubber inside your old one £6.33 delivered . http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/151006433664?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649...

    Rear exhaust hanger , bolt size ?

    I know what you mean , i'll give them a good clean up . Cheers for that mate :drunk:

    Rear exhaust hanger , bolt size ?

    Top idea . Just went out to have a look , cracked all 8 nuts on both brackets . I used an 11mm socket though lol ? :S 2 were a bit rusty the other 6 were ok but i'll replace them with stainless nuts and copper slip em ya said . The torx bolt and nut just come off then i take it ? I'll replace...

    Rear exhaust hanger , bolt size ?

    Nice one . I think i'll have to go down that route too , removing the whole lot not just the brackets . Is the mounting that holds the brackets easy to remove ?

    Rear exhaust hanger , bolt size ?

    Hi . They're a pain in the arse to get out eh ? Last time i change the brackets about 2 years ago i never had a problem getting the bolts out , this time they've really rusted in though . That's why i wanted to know the size of the bolts in the likely event they'd be no use once i got em out . I...

    Milltek Too Quiet? what are the options?

    I know , i'm just taking the piss . Some days the Yozza + decat does get a bit jading .

    Milltek Too Quiet? what are the options?

    I'm off to work at 5.20 in the morning with my Yozza and Decat burbling away nicely . I bet the neighbours love me lol . I've never had em banging on my door though :S

    Buying tax online

    Apparently you can drive it for the first 5 days of the month while your waiting for your new tax disc to arrive . But you must display your old invalid tax disc . After 5 days , it's an offence . But you'd be unlucky to be stopped unless some eagle eyed traffic warden clocks you .

    Buying tax online

    After 5 days , you're committing an offence if you're not displaying a valid tax disc .
  23. MRBILLYUK

    Buying tax online

    Yeah you will . You're allowed to drive for up to 5 days without displaying your new tax disc . Better get your skates on as it takes about 5 days for it to arrive .

    The "Ive taken a pic and I kinda like it" thread

    Snapped on my Galaxy S3 back in January this year while sitting outside work early one morning . Thought the sky looked amazing . Not bad for a phone pic :D

    I've no experience of Tom Tom on Android , but a guy at work installed Sygics on my phone . It uses Tom Toms maps , free updates , all the maps you want...... . It's a dodgy copy ;) It's absolutely spot on :D Just another option for ya . http://www.sygic.com/en/android

    KTR Sport Mini Catalytic Converter

    But running a decat and having the warning light on doesn't put the car into limp mode . Iirc it's only if you have any kind of fault with the pre cat sensor .

    Engine cover missing

    Me too . They need to either find a replacement or reimburse you for the cost of a new cover . I always used to take mine off before i took it a garage in case they tried to pull off the oil cover and broke the clip , then i'd replace it when i got the car home .
