Body Shield Blitz Spray Sealant , dead easy to use . A few layers can be added in next to no time . Or maybe Extreme Gloss M Seal , never tried this one but it sounds like it could be good for your RB .

Lmfao . How do you know exactly when they are tight enough to the extent they aren't going to snap ?? :quiet: There's nothing like a bit of crap advise is there .
Your wheels should be torqued up to 90Nm .
Why isn't it very good ?? You set it , the temp remains constant , that's what CC was designed to do . So whats the problem ? Mines always worked perfectly fine .
The foam lances are ok if you just want foam . With my method you can foam the car at low pressure then rinse the car down with high pressure foam unlike the expensive foam lances . I just couldn't justify spending £50 on a lance for low pressure foam .
It doesn't contain petroleum at all . It's alcohol based . I've had it splash on my paintwork loads of times with no adverse effects . I'm not sure i'd try and seal the car with it though just in case .
I apply it if know it's going to freeze . When it's freshly applied more often that not...
Could be a wire broken from the temp sensor in the wing mirror giving a dodgy reading . Do you fold your wing mirrors in alot when you park up ? Not sure why it would only blow warm air out of the heater when it's set to max tbh . I didn't think they were related as the outside temp sensor is...
Mine did it last winter quite a bit but has been fine up until the recent cold weather and has done it a few times in the last couple of weeks , everything resets to zero on the trip comp . I'm guessing the battery is losing just enough charge to cause a problem . Batteries don't like cold...
^^^ No it won't say anywhere it's an import and no you don't have to inform the insurance company as it's not a grey import like the cheap Jap cars we see over here . It's basically the same car produced in the same factory as the so called " UK cars " without the afore mentioned alarm , locking...
If your wheels buckled then i'd suspect some sort of damage from an earlier impact . The mechanic , as you call him should really have told you it's not safe to drive imo not recommend you " look into it " :eek:
If i was you , first i'd visually check the wheel myself for any signs of damage...
Your spot on there about the warranty starting from the date the car was built . But the part about your MOT being due when Renault said it was is wrong . The first MOT on a car is due on the 3rd anniversary from when the car was FIRST registered in the UK if the car is new when purchased over...
Do a search . This topic crops up all the time . Some less well informed people will tell you it affects the resale value , which is b****cks .
There are lots of RS Clios around that are imports usually sold from places like Motorpoint . They are the same car , produced in the same factory ...
Mine was registered on the 2nd of February 2006 . There was litterally only a handful of unregistered 182's left in the UK when i bought it . I was in 2 minds as whether to just garage it until March and get an 06 plate lol .
They stopped manufacturing them in October 2005 .
I've used meths to degrease new brake discs in the past . As to bleeding your brakes . If they haven't been done for a while i'd bleed them whilst your changing the pads and discs just so you know you've done a thorough job , it's not essential but worth doing imo .
If you use the search button there is lots of information and pics of matched inlets and the plenum .

As said previously loose all of the stickers . I could understand if you were 17 years old but your not :quiet:
As for the wheels they a look a fuckin mess yellow , go for something dark like a gunmetal or black .
You should have stuck to the Michelins . The Pirellis don't come close imo , they should be scrubbing in a bit by now maybe but don't expect the grip you had with the Michelins because it just won't happen .
At best your looking at someone like chipsaway , at worst respraying the door and blending it in the the rest of the car .
Or you could have a go yourself and fill the scratch , wet sand then polish . Here's a guide on how to do it .
