    DVD Burning/Convertor?

    I've told you the best out there for converting , burning all in one . ConvertXtoDVD . Nothing comes close , not even Winavi which i've used for the past couple of years . http://www.vso-software.fr/products/convert_x_to_dvd/ You just need to get yourself a copy of this ;)

    Wax

    Trust me . It doesn't last a year . I use the collinite 845 insulator wax , just as good as the 476 but hell of alot easier to apply and remove . And that doesn't last a year either . Both do last a long time though .

    197 or 1*2

    1*2 for me . I hated the shape of the Mk3 Clio when it came out , thats what persuaded me to get a new 182 . But i must admit they are growing on me , slowly but surely .

    Oil Cover Cap Question?

    I'd do what Dcds4 says . I have an engine cover here and i can't get the oil cover off without risking snapping off the clip , it's a stupid design if you ask me . Stick it on permanently and just remove the whole cover like i said before when you need to change the oil .

    Oil Cover Cap Question?

    It might be broken off . You can get some epoxy resin though to stick it back on .

    Oil Cover Cap Question?

    There should be a metal spring clip on the oil filler cover . Looking at your pic , in the hole on your engine cover the metal clip is there from another oil filler cover . They do snap off easily if you try and remove the oil filler flap to fill your oil . Your better off removing the whole...

    Leather Conditioner

    I'm not keen on the autoglym stuff . I use Buffalo Leather Essence Conditioner . Rejuvenates the smell of leather as well :) http://www.buffaloleather.co.uk/leathercare.htm

    Rainex any good ?

    Get Halfords own brand of Rainex . Same stuff , bigger bottle for the same price ;) . If it's applied as per the directions it's good stuff , lasts for months .

    Odometer / Mileage Display Resetting?

    Trust me . It's not always the battery . My batterys fine , i've checked it numerous times . It's holding a charge . If the batterys the original and around 3 years old then i would accept that . But mines done this from being around 12 months old .

    Odometer / Mileage Display Resetting?

    Mines been doing this alot lately , only when it's cold though . If i set off quickly just after start up then all the lights on the dash come on for a couple of seconds , the low fuel light stays on even if there is a a quarter of a tank or more and everything resets itself to zero except for...

    dent removal companies....

    But it'll look alot better once it's done :) Give em a ring and see what they say . If some of the dents are easy and only take a few seconds to pop out they might not charge as much .

    dent removal companies....

    They usually charge around £40 -50 for coming out to sort out a dent , then anymore dents around a tenner each .

    Car not selling

    Personally i think the 182's are stuck in limbo . You've got younger people who can't afford them so opt for 1.2 , 1.4's etc..... or cheaper 172's and putting what they save buying a 172 towards their insurance . Then you've got older people who can afford them and the insurance but are...

    Argh, is my CV joint nackerd? (pics)

    ^^^ The moral of the story is " dont " take it to a dealers then , unless you want bummin' very hard . Just take it to a back street garage . It'll probably only cost you around £40-50 .

    Argh, is my CV joint nackerd? (pics)

    Whats all this £170 b****cks ? The clips snapped on the gaitor thats all , lol . Get a new clip put on , only a couple of quid or a jubilee clip . Repack it with grease first . Its pretty common for the clips to snap , both mine went on my 172 . I drove it for a couple of weeks with no problem ...

    I had a powerflow stainless stealth when i had a 172 . Couldn't fault it or the guys at Powerflow . Nice sound , not too loud as i was able to choose the backbox which i liked the sound of . It was £270 fabricated and fitted . http://www.powerflowexhausts.net/dealerlist.cfm?dlr_location=7

    air filter/induction kit difference?

    ^^^ Then you didn't read up enough about them . If you did you'd find that most people run cold air feeds from either the front grill or down in the original postion of the oem air feeds .
