Not necessarily . I've always checked and lubricated both parts of the catch regularly yet it still was functioning correctly , hence i had it replaced FOC on Monday . Drop it from about 18 inches , never close it gently or push it to close it or you will at some point put a small dent in your...

You won't need spacers if you buy Genuine Trophy Turinis as they are the same offset as normal 182's .

Tbh , mine didn't look that bad visually . Only minimal surface rust . I've always lubricated quite regularly . When i pull the bonnet release cable now , with the new catch fitted it pops up . Before it wouldn't always pop up , i'd have to get my fingers under the bonnet and lift it slightly to...

There isn't a paint code for the bullets .

I have Sky tv , phone and their upto 20mb Broadband and usually get around 11mb on average . I also have Virginmedia's 120mb Broadband as a standalone deal through " cable " not the phoneline but i pay something like £36 a month . I get 120mb all day long , download lots of films , music etc...

Not a fan of black wheels on a black car myself , it's just a little too much imo . Plus black wheels show up how dirty your tyres are . Just my input ;)

Usually 1200rpm when cold , when warmed up it idles at 700rpm .

I think i might be turning ever so slightly gay too :S . The Yozza exhaust is loud enough on it's own. The build quality and looks are second to none though imo , with the decat it might just be that little bit too much for my delicate ears . I needed to sort out the clamp and manifold fitting...

Can't comment on the S2 . But went from a HTC Desire HD to an S3 in December . The S3 is just alot better phone imo . More user friendly , takes better pictures , the video i would say they're both on a parr . But the battery life on the S3 is imense compared to the HTC . Also the HTC looks...

Had my 182 for 7 years from new , got my first recall letter back in 2008 which i ignored . Bit the bullet this time and had it checked out and replaced FOC .

Looks spot on that mate . A retrimmed Snappy wheel is definitely on my to do list this year . The quality of his work looks amazing :D

WD40 , seriously . Works much the same as peanut butter or any other product that contains some form of oil ;)

Mintex 1144's are known to squeal quite a bit . Had mine on for about 18 months now , they do still squeal at low speeds but not quite as bad or as loud . It's just something you learn to live with .

Yeah well . The Yozza exhaust isn't exactly known for the quietest one out there , the extra decibels from the decat " might " just be a little too much for me this time round . Time will tell , especially after the next MOT is due . There might be another one in the for sale section lol .

Fcuk me , i'd forgotten how loud it is lol . Refitted it today after taking it off for the MOT 2 years ago and never getting round to refitting it .

I'll have a look what mine are like tomorrow , if they need cleaning up a bit .

Or maybe trusty old 3 in 1 oil lol :approve: http://www.3-en-un.fr/produit/super-degrippant-250ml/

So your connectors were showing signs of corrosion ?

Cheers , i'll have a look tomorrow if i get time . Hopefully it's nothing badly corroded .

How weird is that . I noticed this for the first time tonight on mine . As i was stationary , just started the car up , i pressed the brake pedal and noticed the rear fog light symbol on the dash flicker ever so faintly . I got someone to check that the fog light wasn't coming on , it was just...

From what i can gather , there were 2 letters sent out . One was a recall letter , the other was just a free check and lube . I'd ignored my first recall letter back in 2008 . Looks like your g/f's car must have had a replacement catch at some stage according to Renaults system so they were...

For what car ? Renault have been sending out letters recently for a recall on bonnet catches . There's a post about it on here also . Just had mine replaced free of charge this morning on my 182 . Might be worth looking into ...

Don't even need a friend . Just a length of tube , spanner and a bottle ( with some old brake fluid in if you have any ) . Keep the end of the tube under the surface of the brake fluid so it can't suck any air back , pump the brakes a few times , check fluid level , top up , so on and so forth ...

Had mine changed today free of charge plus a health check . The only thing they found was the clamp for the cat to exhaust is knackered . I'd already planned on putting the decat back on tomorrow anyway with a new clamp and fitting kit . Had to laugh at the young girls comment on the service...

+1 , it'll be your battery dead as a dodo or i'll eat my hat ;)

I know VM have a fair useage policy , but in all honesty i've never been capped and i download hell of alot of films ;) . I can download a film in roughly 7 mins ( obviously dependant on seeds etc .... ) so that'll ding dang do for me :D

They are laser radar jammers not for speed cameras . Their real function is as a garage door opener so if you have one of those fitted and you haven't actually got a garage door that it operates you're pretty much fcuked . Even if you have a garage door that it operates you can be prosecuted for...

I'm with flux too . It's ok mate , i'll take your word for it . As for tyres Uniroyal Rainsport 2's . About 80 quid a corner fitted , brilliant tyre , especially in the wet :D

Inner tube ? Are we back in the 1970s ?? Obviously if your tyres gone flat in a week of being left standing you've got a puncture . Just take it to a tyre fitters and for about 8 quid they'll sort it .
