Timing belt kit differs due to changes in the idler setup.

It's a fairly deep thread though so its got a good grip on the splined section to spread the load over. Other things can come in to play which should also be considered such as heat transfer/thermal bridging leading to premature failure of the material BUT it would have to be a fair bit of heat...

What do you mean the cam setting bar isn't for locking them? Edit: check out the tensioner mark to... Looks miles wrong if my eyes aren't deceiving me.

Not really Renaults fault as they dont make the shafts or any of the castings so prob one of those things. Looks like a stress related failure though and who's to say it hasn't been grossly over-tightened at some point in its history? Just be thankfull it didn't happen at speed.

Check the fuse box in the passenger side of the dash... The legend will show you which fuse is for the UCH. The wires you need to check vary depending on the actual fault so re-read what Mike wrote earlier in the thread and go from there. Mick

They are supposed to add strength and ridigity (is that an actual word?) to a shell by bracing the strut tops. On some cars it works but not the Clio-Yo's

Because race car?

If you're worried have it plugged in to see what caused it.

Need to see the live data and go from there mate. It could be a config issue if it's been off recently or it could be a clock ring ffault and so needs replacing. Mick

Yeah and thanks... Done a few before and it's THE stupidest design slave ever.

Sounds UCH related. It is going to need a proper looking at I'm afraid (IMO) Mick

Enjoy that job! Doing one on an R26 today and I can't wait to start the bleeding process.

We do an additive that'll help with smoking due to poor ring or stem sealing. It's cheap and works!

What they mean is the computer really should be replaced as its a detonator unit and once it's "fired" it really shouldn't be trusted to do the same thing again. This is why it stores an unmovable "crash" code to kind of force your hand in binning it and the only way to reset/remove this code is...

LoLz at the ball bearing comment!

What management is it on Dan?

Any chance of a picture?

Im afraid I don't have much experience with the Omex range of products or the software but If its "seeing" rotation the problem is not CPS sensor related and is more likely going to be a config or trigger pattern issue. Are you sure you've correctly installed the loom and have correct...

Can you be a little more specific regards to exactly which orange light is flashing you to death?

Can you not plug it in to a computer and see what the TPS signal looks like? A working TPS will show a smooth and progressive curve as you apply the throttle where as a buggered one will appear jumpy and unstable. Even simply looking at the TPS value in live data should give an indication as to...

As it only appears to pull left under gentle braking I'd be sure to make sure the MOT tester applies a common sense approach when performing the brake test rather than stamping on the pedal and saying "yeah, they look reet yoof"

Pop em back then blue and i will refund you. Mick

No, the sports don't run an EGR valve and the code does indeed refer to the recirc purge valve.

Yes, it doesn't have one. Mick

As above matey, any MOT test station will be able to help you out with this thought they *may* ask you to make a small donation to the testers pocket for performing such an act. It will rule out/confirm a fault with the brakes themselves though so money well spent IMO

Oh, hai [waves] Would be interesting to see what the rollers record under a brake test to see if there's an imbalance vs a tracking fault.

Start simple by servicing the brakes... Strip and clean the callipers, make sure the guides are nice and free and check the dust seals are intact. Mick

Checked the rear bushes?
