    Removing abs rings from rear brakes

    You're gonna have to heat them yes. Some people just hammer them off/on but my personal experience doing that always results in the ring cracking.

    Air Bag / Pretensioner Fault CB0F

    For the price of them in scrap yards now i don't bother anymore (we pay £7-10 for them gaurenteed no deployment). Just lock it then re-write the vin in one piece of software then fit it, back to CLIP to reconfigure it when its fitted and free the triggers. Mick

    water leak below manifold and above drivers shaft....what is it?

    Core plug issues are very uncommon especially on the current platforms since the introduction of modern coolants (such as type-d) which are chemical based containing anti-corrosion inhibitors. Some people still insist on using water or water based coolants without ethelyn glycol as its base...

    Air Bag / Pretensioner Fault CB0F

    It depends on the year/spec of the vehicle though and towards the end of the X65 they fitted what was in stock. Have you looked at the actual rear reels yet to see if they are infact charged reels? It coukd be that someone has tried to fix the issue by installing an SRS ECU from a different...

    Head gasket set!

    Buy a quaility set but what you change is up to you. Normally a headset will contain everything you need to fully refurbish and replace the cylinder head... ... so thats the main compression gasket along with manifold gaskets, camshaft seals, valve stem seals along with any additional ancils...

    Cup will not start..... Another one!!!!

    Bad earth! Check the main strap in the passenger front arch is intact. If so, take it off and wire brush the s**t out of the mounting points (even if it looks clean) then replace. If not intact, replace. Try again Mick

    Air Bag / Pretensioner Fault CB0F

    So whats the question Sven? It needs the crash data removing from the existing SRS ecu or it needs the ecu replacing. Then you need to replace the spent components and reconfigure the ecu to suit the hardware. Mick

    Ticlking/Rattle Noise from engine drivers side

    Its not a simple repair Adam, its a pretty huge job which will most likely require the replacement of the crankshaft (I don't like regrinds). The cheapest method woukd be to replace the entire engine then the next option would be to replace just the bottom end with second hand assemblies. This...

    Renault Clio TCE 1.1 'Braking Fault' Message help!

    Assuming there are no faults with wheel targets or sensors here... This *normally* happens on the Clio III/Megane III when some numpty bleeds the brakes incorrectly. The ABS/ESP modules on these vehicles require pressure bleeding and doesn't like the gravity fed one man bleeds most garages do...

    Traction Light coming on...

    The best course of action would be to plug it in as it could be related to the brake switch circuit, it is common afterall. It could also be the SAS (Steering Angle Sensor not the boys from 22) as mine did this after putting an aftermarket wheel on for a few days and it turned out to be the boss...

    Urgent key help required

    Yes, soldering with a fine tipped iron will sort that. Failing that buy a new button

    Help diagnosing a misfire

    The sulphur smell is unburnt fuel burning off in the CAT... this is why the management light is flashing rather than on solid as it is warning you that the fault has potential to damage/destroy the CAT.

    Help diagnosing a misfire

    I second your conclusion; a fuelling issue is unlikely and more likely to be on the ignition side (coil pack, plug lead, plug).

    iOS 6.1 is out, Now 6.1.3

    Re: iOS 6.1 is out But its obviously not a carrier specific issue is it? I understand how the various network operating range can effect the devices battery but Apple force their methodology on others not the other way so im honestly confused as to why this keeps happening. I really hate...

    iOS 6.1 is out, Now 6.1.3

    Re: iOS 6.1 is out Why is it Apple cannot get iOS updates right? Not an anti-fan boy kicking but a genuine question? Battery life and signal are two very important areas for most smart phone users so why dont they beta test thoroughly before final release?

    Price of Cup Pack Shocks?

    I guess it depends why you want lows. I'm too old for that crap now and I'm actually considering Prolines to add some comfort back.

    Price of Cup Pack Shocks?

    Nothing full side on no, just like to take pictures of the car after a ckean so Simon Bridgeford can shake his head and say "its too clean" in total disgust. The only other I've got im afraid.

    Strange brake wear

    Speak to G172 and sort yourself out with some new discs and pads. Putting new pads on those discs was just a waste of cash really as thats not just happened. Common for the inside face to look like that though after a few years abuse. Time to replace them though chap... new discs and pads at...

    Price of Cup Pack Shocks?

    Fitted cup dampers all round and wishbones to my 172 today... ... all four dampers (with new boots and bump stops) came in at £204 new so dampers alone will be around £180ish. Mines on Sportlines and after having the geo setup properly driving the car gives me a chubby again. Can't wait to...

    Quick Turn In Qustion

    Just fitted all new cup dampers and wishbones to my 172 today then had it geo'd in prep for bedford next weekend - Fek me, money well spent as the turn in (over before at least) is epic now. As above though it is a bit twitchy

    172 starting issue - intermittent start and now no start

    Most likely going to be the UCH but really needs some basic conformity and CLIP checks carrying out first. Gonna be looking at a bill of £280-320 to supply, fit and code/config a new unit. Mick

    MAP Sensor P0100 Fault Code

    Looks like you have a faulty MAP sensor then I'm afraid. Regarding the u/s H02 I'd personally want to see the output in graph form but it may be you need one of these to for reasons currently unknown... age, faukty heater element, etc

    fitted injectors and coded. power feels laggy now? :(

    Renault themselves haven't used Reprog "discs" in years now. Who is doing the work, an actual dealer? "Reprog" is the method by which Renault reprogram the various ECU's on your vehicle. There is no control over what can and cannot be done as its pretty much an automated process involving a...

    Ticlking/Rattle Noise from engine drivers side

    Well, the bottom end is at least. The car itself is a clean enough example and I had to lap 16 valves on the fekker. Replacement B/E Adam
