It means it will still be £23 but thats without delivery I'm afraid.

Right, STOP! I'm currently working on your car being a 2.0 RS... I'm now guessing thats not the case?

Thats the part number for a genuine renault stat kit (x1 thermostat, x1 seal). £27!!! Hoky fek, I need to up my prices. By the time I've packaged and shipped it, its gonna be close on £23

Well, Renault SAS don't make them, they're out sourced but the best place to buy one from is your local dealer. The QH stats are actually fine but the seals are just terrible in comparison to the genuine items (they actually measure as thicker) and normally leak after a couple of months. Stat...

You've not got the PM yet lol :D

Without going in to what, why and how a thermostat works... Drop the new stat in some water which covers the unit fully. Bring the water to boil and once the boiling pan water reaches 89 degrees the stat will start to open. When it does pull the stat out and watch it slowly close. (FUCKTARD...

I'll pm you in a minute chap. Im confident that its bottom end and not timing nor top end at fault but it won't take long to confirm belt tension. Mick

Yes, its just general moisture in the system which has built up over time. Take it for a properly long run and it should start to get better.

Its the seals that tend to be shite (especially with the QH kits). Deffo use a genuine kit but always test the stat in a pan of boiling water before installing it as I've had a couple from Renault in the past two months simply not open. Mick

Adam, If you like I could take the drive over to see you (and the car) on Monday 25th? I don't do mobile anymore but I'll do it seeing as its my baby and bring some very basic tools so I can check the belt tension and a few other bits but I'll have to charge you for it. PM me if interested Mick

Sounds like either a fault with the u/s lamda or the map sensor to me. Woukd need to see it and do some data logging to say for sure though. Mick

I'm in but can you please wear adult clothes and not some f**king kiddy T-shirt?

When I worked for Voda's engineering team (many years ago now mind) there was a reason we referred to "Orange" as "Zero range" If I had to choose a 2G/3G network on service level it would be Voda but O2 are a close second especially as they are sharing 4G sites so when they launch there will be...

That's not too bad, I dont mind 12 month contracts either but it seems they want you on monthly contracts now (as they can change your terms monthly) unless you've absolutely gotta have that iphone 9 over 3yrs.

Daveski would be awesome as a rep... he's gonna need a 10second car though if he's representing CS though cos that "poomah" just doesn't cut it lol

It depends what you do with your phones I guess. I do alot of email and access Renault and business intranet services so I'd regularly go over that 1gb limit but I'm a business user with a small tv in my pocket. I guess joe bloggs using gmail and facebook wouldn't need anymore.

Who's that with, is it really un-capped and is that a 30day contract? I use the above with my SG Note2 but I took it out at the begining of the year when it was 3gb data... really should check to see if my data limit has been reduced (I suspect it has). Mick

Tesco smartphone 30 day sim only rolling tariff - £15 a month (2gb data, 5000sms 1000mins). Sounds like winning to me.

Gay - what's with hatin on nandos?

Either or will do the job be it Joomla or WordPress. I personally prefer WordPress to and did my website with it but its personal preference.

I know but you asked for advise and i said it would still be prudent to have it checked properly as it *could* be something else not it *was* something else.

If you want to take a gamble thats where I'd put my money but I prefer to know rather than guess. If it were me I'd want to run some quick continuity tests on the effected circuits (in your case CC and Horn) with a DMM and that'll tell you without a diubt if the unit is ballsed.

Just remember it doesn't contain a head gasket or bokts though. You'd be better off with this: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=130283031186 Ask Shirely for bolts to Mick

Its the main spiral cable unit in the steering assembly which all wheel based functions route thru (SRS, horn, cruise). Luckily on the X65 it can be bought and replaced without having to change everything... think it retails at around £67 new.

It did but it wasn't interpreted correctly. Which "circuit" was at fault and was it showing up as an open circuit, short circuit, etc? Most cases like this are fixed by replacing the clockring assembly but every now and again an interesting one pops up with continuity issues between the column...

Just because you haven't done anything to the wheel doesn't mean the SAS isn't throwing up errors. You've also got an SRS light on so have you considered the two issues maybe linked as they both route via the clockring assembly? Mick

Energy engine and yes its 8v so the ECP link is correct

Picture of your engine?

Thats an 8v set I believe

Its missing the upper inlet seals but as above, the basics are there IF that picture is specific. Can't vouch for the quality though.
