not even a matter for debate or question. Belt kit needs changing

Cheers :) yeah i'd seen those other people interested, just hoped people would spot the thread i guess. Bit late for a christmas meet now lol ;) Have to sort something out for this month

only thing gungum is good for is thread lock on turbos

If the springs rattle its because the gasket is worn out. Cheap kits are awkward as Hell as the bolts and springs are odd lengths. I use an oem kit that's cheaper than Renault, but identical

definitely a new belt, no question. If there's no record of the tensioner and idler being done in the last 20k/2 years then i'd change it

it's normally the inner ends of the track rods if everything else is ok

yeah thats genuine parts. I think the SMI rack is the most common, but you still need to check.

roughly £42 for each of the parts. so about £160ish for the set 3 different racks though, so you need to know which you have

you lose no top end at all in my experience, there's no downside, the only debate really is if the cost and effort is worthwhile

wasted words. I've been dishing out abuse for 2 days solid, and he still wants to paint them. Dave, you officially suck

Big MK1 meet on Jan 2nd if you're interested ;) Last years was massive with valvers from all over the country making the effort http://www.clio16valver.co.uk/board/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=42298

Re: The Definitive Wukbrid Project 45s would be too low profile on 15s. 50s are ideal, and the cheapest size to buy

I would. Just dont expect amazing gains, as the 172 manifold is still very good. the biggest improvement is a far smoother torque curve

Re: The Definitive Wukbrid Project not bad for a ginger ;)

it's shite on xbox too. My 5 year old console has got a bit unstable recently. Normally get about 2-3 hours out of a game of forza before it gets too hot....lucky if i can get past the first online lobby on black ops. There's something seriously overloading the console, and i know i'm not the...

yes you can. A LOT of insurers will let you mirror your no claims

simple answer is, you can

3???? FFS a new belt on a cup is £12 and a few minutes to fit, or even just 2 minutes to tighten it up. Did none of them try ANYTHING logical???

cold weather gets to batteries. The alternator is having to work a bit harder straight after startup

I agree, they should. They tried telling me i was asking for something that didn't exist

oh, and Renault not having a locking tool in their workshop isn't a first. Wests in Bedford told me the same when i ordered my locking tools

right, pretty common for this to get messed up The inlet cam needs a different seal fitted. Bacically it doesn't seal on the cam, it seals on the dephaser pulley. if you've fitted 2 of the same type of seal, then you need to remove the one on the inlet cam, and fit the thin brown one which will...

they all make a noise to some extent, but some are louder than others. The noise behind the headlight is the carbon canister solenoid

Anthracite you say .....

if it's the diff circlip, then it normally damages the groove it sits in, so even a new circlip wont stay in place for long. Only solution without removing the box it to weld the circlip in place, but i wouldn't see it as a permanent fix

been advertised for months. Wouldn't mind it for very cheap

any DOT4 as long as it's new for normal use. ATE superblue for the track

I'll find out if the mk1 has been fixed yet. Gaz was lacking the required level of arsed last time I spoke to him LOL

Re: were can i get my inlets matched good but at a good price not since he stopped paying the guy that did them for him ;)
