    I also wouldnt advise an iPad Mini just yet... you just know the retina version is on the cards and will appear as soon as you buy one. Anyone that says it doesn't matter is clearly either blind or in denial

    Tablets

    I had a Playbook and actually loved it (until RIM forced a secondary, standalone calendar and email). Its a great size and the mukti-tasking is one of, if not the best on a tablet I've ever used. People moan about the lack of Apps and the browser being poor but I never found it the case and used...

    Cambelt Garages, for those chancers out there.

    They're very easy to get totally wrong or even slightly wrong... even the dealers are guilty but you have to choose somewhere though so make the best, informed decision possible and if there are any problems take it back. UK law states a reputable trading company must give 12 months parts and...

    Then its either someone has left an egg mcmuffin under a seat or you've got another issue with something like AC or an electrical unit.

    Advice on buying new gearbox for my R27 2007

    For what you'd pay for a used box I'm with Nobby above with getting yours rebuilt and re-shimmed because they are fairly common and imo not fit for purpose. Just make sure you get an actual warranty and use a decent gearbox oil such as TransELF 'NFJ'

    I Smell Eggs....!

    Its normally a sign of unburnt fuel entering the CAT but if you've not got one its unlikely to be that. How dies the car run at idle and under partial load... any minor missfires, hesitation or signs of it feeling flat? Have those bodies been balanced yet? Regarding the cabin filter, pull it...

    I ditched O2 and recently switched to a smart phone tariff with Tesco mobile. Monthly contract 3000min voice to any network/landlines 5000 sms 3Gb data £20 a month including vat. They do some others which are cheaper but the above was better than anything O2 could serve up. Two weeks in now...

    RE: Clio non-start causes?

    If you don't have decent diagnostic kit then yes. The problem is if yiu drive it to a garage and the issue only manifests at cild start then there won't be anything wrong to spot. Of course if it's doing it all the time, irrgardless of engine temp then it won't really matter.

    RE: Clio non-start causes?

    Not necessarily no, it could be an issue with the heater element but it could be the cts or something else. It needs a proper diagnostic session really, not a code read.

    RE: Clio non-start causes?

    Start with ckeaning the TB but it could be a lamda or cts issue also

    Digital dash/speedo

    Not for data acquisition im not, it's way too much effort just to get coolant temp and engine speed to the dash so im sticking with analogue input. I believe the data transfer rate for the dash is really slow to so engine speed wouldn't update particularly fast and thats IF I could make it work...

    Digital dash/speedo

    Yeah but he isn't, at a guess, using CAN data to run it Its on the topics for discussuon list at bedford though

    O2 sensor on a d4f

    This to... its a 1.2 16v afterall

    Digital dash/speedo

    This is also very true and is why it won't work with a standard ECU via CAN as Renault won't allow it. They do though provide the templates for some aftermarket ECU's which they have listed on the website but you have to read it in full and understand the information to before you buy as this...

    Clio 172 rear o2 sensor HELP :(

    It will fluctuate if you're gonna be live data logging from cold start but once the CAT is up to temp the voltage should be stable both at idle and when under load.

    Iac valve where is it??

    And just to add on what Chip said above regarding man handling the throttle plate, don't do it unless the TB is unplugged as the plate has been known to resist and fight back which only encourages you to press harder and break it.

    Digital dash/speedo

    The RaceTech Dash2 and Dash4 units are amazing products... just a shame you need a bloody PHD in applied mathematics to work out the sensor value conversion (unless you opt to buy/use CanBus)

    Woohooo, so i've got myself a £500 Ph1 172, but now what?!

    This is the one that I nearly purchased... it did sound and look like a good base for a resto project but it needed more than I wanted to spend (don't panick, I'm a right tight fooker). Enjoy it mate because part of me still regrets not buying this ph1 over a ph2.
