Ordered the latest Goodyear Eagle f1s in the week and had them fitted this morning. Noticed when I got home that they say GS-D2 on the side wall and not GS-D3 that everone has metioned on here. Are they rubbish and if so I have wasted £169-50 and are they still better the the Contis that I...

Rear pads sometimes stick to the discs overnight. Quite bad sometimes it is like the brakes are still on and then Bang! it frees up and all is fine.

no probs so far, but I do take them carefully

Im having 2 Eagle F1s fitted tomorrow for £79.50 each all in

You get a little more air in and it "mixes" the "air/fuel" mixture. Should in theory be an improvement, but you have to bear in mind that if you are putting an air leak in the system, it will run lean. This may not be too bigger issue if you have no other Mods done, but if you then do the Air...

depends if you want to hear a 120db hissing cobra when you are driving around.

I use Cockpit shine (spray). Wipe it on after cleaning (no polish) comes up looking pretty good. The one I use is the clear silicon oil type.

"As for kits, IMO i would get either Eibach springs (30mm drop) or Apex springs (40mm drop) matched with Koni adjustable shocks" What sort of cost is involved with the Eibach Springs and Koni Shocks?

"Eibach springs will prob do what youre looking for, not much of a drop but will improve the handling. Cost approx £140 ish I think!" Is the above just for springs or do you get the shocks with them as a complete assembly ? What I am looking for is to change so I can have adjustable shocks...

I am thinking of changing all 4 corners to get rid of the squeak from the front shocks. Any advise as to what is best on the cup and how much they cost and time taken to fit ? I may get Reno to fit them at 12k service if it not too big a job. Otherwise I will do them in the spring when it...

Mine has a new valve fitted (link included, I think) and it works propely now. When you drive it you should feel the front dip, even under light braking. If the car sits down under braking rather then dips at the front it is probably wrong as it will be braking 50/50 not 60/40.

I was told that everything rattled because it is a performance sports cars and that is what to expect !

If you run it flat out from the start you will shorten the life of the engine and Reno get more aftersales money off you for servicable items that are knackered before time or maybe even a new engine !

I was told by Reno they know about the knocking / sqeaking on the suspension but as yet ther is no fix.........

There is a RobRTE or it might br BobRTE Do a search and you can PM him

sounds like a CV joint to me

Mike172sport:- There are now people saying that they do not know if they should have a link or not. Is the actual Limit Valve a different part ? and can they identify this themselves. I have noticed this has become of much debate recently. I knew it had affected about 4 other cups. But...

I have had both ABS and non ABS cars I am 38 and have been driving 20 years.

Well my Cup now has it fitted (by Mike172sport) and I tell you it now feels safe when braking and you can feel that the brakes are biased towards the front now. A totaly different car to drive. So unless I am told it has to come out for safety reason it will stay firmly in place thank you very...

If it was my car then it is on the sout coast

please see my post today on ALL CUP OWNERS :- RE: - Bake limit Valve (Copy of post) Mike172 sport - If you are the chap that worked on my cup the last couple of times I have asked to see you but you were not in on the couple of days I popped in. Just wanted to thank you for sorting out my...

Mike172 sport - If you are the chap that worked on my cup the last couple of times I have asked to see you but you were not in on the couple of days I popped in. Just wanted to thank you for sorting out my CUP on the last 2 visits. It has been suffering from a drop in performance for months...

If the brakes are 50/50 they are wrong !. That is the whole point of having them checked. 50/50 braking is for ABS as it is able to stop the wheels locking up. The reason the handling is unsafe braking on corners at speed is because the rear brakes are operating too hard, thus dragging the...

mine is ever so slightly to the right also - used to bother me but do not think it is worth letting Reno do anything with it. Doesnt pull if I let go on the flat so tracking is straight it is just the alignment of the steering wheel. Im leaving it as it is as I do not want the handling...

You will see I have put a couple of recent posts about this. Reno did not believe me, but because I was insistant that they booked it in as it was dangerous, they did and said I was right and it was a safety issue. Valve replaced now and working fine. Braking characteristics are very...

Fbw - thats the way to go

I dont have a throttle cable !
