    Abs pump

    Yes, your abs won't work and the fault light will stay on which is an mot failure.

    Checking timing question

    Exactly Fred, they just fall out from the weight of the oil on them

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Fitted these: Sorry for the poor quality... can't tell you what else I was doing :D

    Abs pump

    Right, now I believe I am on the same hyme sheet... So you've transplanted the 172 driveshafts and hubs also and now the wheel speed sensors won't connect to the vehicles existing ABS loom?

    Checking timing question

    No but use the genuine ones as the APA versions are s**t! They leak baaaaad and some fit so badly the oil pressure pops em out.

    Make your own Oz F1 Centre Caps

    You model it, they can print it. Time to get in to SolidWorks chap ;)

    Checking timing question

    Whilst you're there check there's no "play" in the inlet camshaft from a worn dephaser as this will 100% add some advance to the timing knocking it out slightly. General rule though is as per Freds post above. Mick

    ABS Problems - driving me nuts

    He's right Cub, if it was a short in the wiring it would bang the fused link as soon as you replaced it/powered on so it's going to be an internal module fault that's causing it to pull too much current so as I said to you at the earlier Llandow meet you will most likely need to replace the...

    Abs pump

    It depends on the age of your car and the version of the Bosch ABS system installed on your car originally (eg Bosch 5/5.5 non ESP vs Bosch 6/8 with ESP). If your car already has ABS though why change it? The 'sport' version, depending on age, will not give you anything extra that you don't...

    Mk3 Clio Unlocking

    Sean, read what he said above re: Deadlocking... He was talking about when you press the lock button twice to stop people opening the doors from the inside if they break a window ;)

    New Megane to be launched @ Frankfurt Motorshow.

    The Megane III is an brilliant platform on the whole, its completely different to the previous Megane II and I honestly love mine to bits (bar the annoying digital dash... RS' 250 upgrade I think to get clocks back). Its nice to see Renault build quality back to which has been missing since the...

    UCH Fault= BBA Reman fix!

    I think you misunderstood what I actually meant. I know there is no actual "Flasher" relay per say on a CPU controlled board... but hey, welcome to CS troll on

    Megane III did come in Estate, we have three on our road alone so look harder lol.

    Tracking advice

    The hardest part about the job, I find, is keeping the steering wheel straight whilst you make adjustments. I guess having a friend holding the wheel steady would help though.

    Are Hankook V12's still rated? or are there more favourable options?

    I actually prefer the Hankook S1 Evo over the Ventus V12 but its still a very good tyre for the money.

    Clutch...kapoot!

    Leave Dan a message and he'll get back to you. We're in Nottingham and charge about the same as Fred (£380inc vat)

    Don't let on who you work for, they'll be asking you for your employee discounts ;)

    Car wont start

    Then that's most likely going to be the issue. Trace the power wire back to the fuse box using a continuity test on a DMM. If the wire shows no continuity then you have a break which needs finding and fixing (or you could just run a new wire and not faff round but make sure it's fused). If the...

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Took it for a run this morning and came back to find the radiator leaking (AGAIN) - This will have been the 3rd in 12 months now. Seriously Renault, WTF are you sealing the end tanks with(?Rhet)

    Mk3 Clio Unlocking

    It's called "deadlocking" ;-)

    Tracking advice

    Its not essential you go for Hunter setup just for tracking. The optical and laser setups are more than adequate providing the person using them isn't a single cell pond dweller. I set mine with string and axle stands

    Mk3 Clio Unlocking

    I absolutely hate this on the Clio III, annoying as hell. The later Kangoo's do it to and I must have at least two calls a month from owners in similar positions as you. Why they didn't make it an option you can turn on/off I'll never understand.

    Alternator problems!!!!!!

    A small drain is to be expected but not quite that much. Without seeing it I'm kind of out of ideas now chap

    172 keeps dying after sitting in traffic??!????

    Was it a genuine Renault unit or a cheap copy?

    Race engined, big turbo TTRS build.

    A 172 would blatently have it in the twisties though lolz

    Race engined, big turbo TTRS build.
