hang on.....which 1.2 is it? 16v or 8v?

loom corrosion or a vacuum leak IMO

the stock stat in a mocal plate is 80 degrees. I replaced it with a 100degree one on my 200sx as I had a pretty large cooler and didn't want to stop the oil warming properly. You'll always get oil flow into the cooler, it's just a restriction that stops over cooling. The stat is never...

that's me in trouble

that press and hold is to reset the service interval on cars that have it. Most likely an airbag or seatbelt pretensioner plug at fault. You need to plug in to diagnostics to trace it

all it does it turn a light on. Plenty of people just unplug them to put the dash light out

Technically never. My rsi has an engine from the first car to carry the Renaultsport badge though. Got it when i was 30.

not enough information. Feel free to call me about it tomorrow though :)

adjustable wrench!!!! it's not plumbing lol

nah it's fine, I saw Dave88 on saturday ;) . you probably should. No bumming though

brace the main hoop to the original upper belt mounting and it will be a lot stronger. Give your nearest cage fabrication place a call and ask for some seamless tube for a harness bar, it's cheap enough to just use the right thing. Where are you?

this thread just got very gay

man up ;) cut the wire off and get the ring end of the spanner on then give it some welly

have you not asked? there's a fair price difference when new so that should be reflected in a second hand price

I have the mild steel mk1 system. It's painted black for a start. Stainless will be shiny, mild steel systems are aluminised or painted

gonna have to take me to see this soon mate :) loving it

yeah it's genuinely a 5-6 hour job as a lot has to come off.

if you ever make your mind up, and you dont sell up, LOL

I think the phrase you used "I never couldn't hear it" when i took it 2 miles away on test drive tells you you dont like the exhaust. Get some "not Gaz" suspension, and makie it just nice again

doesn't mean they know how to do these though. I've been into many respectable garages to do F4R and K4M cambelts when they've got stuck and asked for help. I'm near enough identical pricing to Fred, doesn't make any sense trying to under-cut and gives people a choice based on who they want to...

the labour part is pretty bad. About £100 over the top. Should be doing an aux belt kit too

pre cat is the only one that effects the fueling. post cat is just a "your cat isn't working" warning. They're both the same sensor but one has a longer wire by about 50mm

seems likely. Dont rely on fault codes, you need to look at live data and long term trim values. You'll get no code if the sensor is still functioning but giving the wrong signals

objecting to being driven by a female? ;) the starting is more likely fuel pressure dropping overnight. Try priming it on the key twice before attempting a start. Sounds a bit sick in general though, probably needs a general health check and new bits like plugs before a bit of a session with...

it's not nice stuff, I've had it leak on me and it makes you feel like s**t. Can't turboman dan drain it for you?

it's entirely down to the top mount cup hitting the body. renaults fix is to dremel the hole where is hits. I've done a fair number like that and it works perfectly

+1!!!!! It's possible but would take about £40k to do it, especially on an XE (which is a fantastic engine BTW)

looked at Arctic blue 182s? a little darker but still a lovely colour, and not much different really

the crud will have been on the outside, and stuck to it when the plug was removed. Looks like there's been a pool of water sat in that plug hole too. Change them

NO!!! think i've told you 4 times now that you have pencil coils which are very well known to fail and be a cause of misfires
