    172 cup - oil capacity?

    Just because it can take just under 5 litres , you should stick to the recommended quantity of 4.75 litres . http://www.torquecars.co.uk/Tuning/engine-oil.php

    DVD's

    Does exactly what it says on the tin . Clones dvd's , shrinks and burns etc... you have the options to remove menus , subtitles , change audio but not set start / end frames . There is a slightly newer version out now than the one i'm using so i'm not sure if that would be any different . Since...

    Quick question about a chip.....

    Ooooooooh temper temper . Maybe if you use your eyes and read the original post before using said fingers and gobbing off with over the top advice . Simplicity is the key word here , as i'm sure a simple soul like yourself can understand :clown: By the way it's " plain " not " plane " ;)...

    DVD's

    ^^^ Clonedvd for me everytime ^^^^ Used to use shrink , but i prefer clonedvd a couple of clicks and its done . Personally i think its faster than shrink , but its always good to have a couple of programs rather than relying on one . If you read the original post you will see the problems...

    Splashed Cement (set)

    I think having a clearcoat paint on your car might just save your bacon " when " you eventually get it off , but i wouldn't be surprised if there is some dulling to the paint and and alot of fine scratches . Megs scratch X should sort this out imo . Get your ass down to the jet wash tonight...

    Splashed Cement (set)

    As above , the lime in the cement " could " start to burn the paint ! I'd get my ass down to the local garage jet wash asap , using the soap might help more than just plain water .

    Anyone Broken The Oil Filler Cap Cover

    Yeah AA Autocentre broke mine , had to buy me a new one . I usually take off the whole engine cover before it goes in for a service so they can't break it . You can buy them separate from Renault .

    Read the original post you tool :clown: . She wanted advice on putting something over the chip to stop it rusting . Did i mentioned anything about the dent ?? NO I DIDN'T . Use your eyes before you use your mouth in future . It sounds like its just a small car parking dent . Lots of PDR...

    Quick question about a chip.....

    If its gonna be a while before you have time to repair it, i'd just put a couple of layers of wax over the chip to seal it , keep out the moisture . If you lacquer it , its gonna create work , removing the lacquer before you can attempt a repair , imo .

    using touch up paint....

    No problem . The key is building the paint up slowly , leaving to dry between coats , taking your time with the wet sanding , not to apply too much pressure , let the wet n dry do the work ( i put a tiny amount of fairy liquid in the water ) also make sure you strip off any wax / polish etc...
