I dont think immob can fully be removed on ph2, only virginilized to sync up to ph2 uch and key. You would need ph2 loom, key and uch to run it.

Updates. Cleaned the R26 last weekend and a quick coat of gtechniq c2v3. Quick check of fluids. Never uses anything but takes 2 mins. Whilst bonnet was up checked the torque on the pms top mounts as not checked them since fitting and im going over the suspension ready for Spa. N/s top...

Short boot would work OK if your stuck, but the longer one will be better. Ive used a short one as outer on my blue dci, lasted about 30 thousand miles. Large jubilee clip is good if you have hassle with the proper clip.

Stick a boot on, outer cv joint knocks off easy. I have a few oem renault thermoplastic ones here if your stuck but would need to measure what size you need. Also if its a small nick in the boot, brake cleaner it clean, mitre bond or superglue will fix it. Usually lasts the boot out ive done...

Updates. Used the 250 a couple of times recently and all good. Took it down my mates garage so could have a look at the underside on the lift to see whats what. Nothing to note all looks excellent. Will give the underside a wash off and coating of xcp rust block soon, ready for winter...

Thanks all. Its nice to get something that doesnt need loads of work for a change and can enjoy it from the off.

Appreciated mate ill have them if going spare. Will come in handy 👌

The interior panel fitting was straightforward enough. I knew i was missing a couple of bits of trim so had to improvise. The van has different plastic upper trims that go around the van panel/rear qtr window and i did not have these. Also did not have the front lower plastic trims and metal...

Updates Had toe set on the blue dci a couple of weeks ago. Toe set almost neutral as i dont need every bit of turn in and want max mileage out of the tyres. On the geo lift. Noted inner arb bushes are well past their best so got them to do soon. Apart from that its looking good for mot at the...

Get some decent diagnostics on it i.e. can clip to see if its anything related to auto box inhibiting start

Looks mega

It will benefit from a map but its not going to run rough without one, performance might not be optimal but it shouldnt be misfiring or conking out.

Spot on didnt think the mounts would give you any issues. If it vibrates on idle loosen off the mounts slightly, start engine up let it settle into happy position and retorque the mounts. @plees made a nice fitted washer for the upper mount too, might be worth fitting. Can just about see it in...

You will need to go on the catcams website and get the info.

Fit the valves and springs to the head as they are and measure the installed height of the spring, and if not correct adjust to suit with shims. The machine shop i use made custom shims that fit over the valve stem oil seals, they said its better than shimming underneath the valve stem oil seal.

Needs diagnostics with clip, could just be a basic plug or coil. Doubt its related to airfilter, they dont have a maf from memory so wont be an airflow issue.

I guess the povo spec mk4 has slightly different hubs to rs? Meg2 is also threaded where it goes into the hub, nylock on top and povo hubs have the pinch bolt.

Looks very similar to meg2 wishbone/balljoint, is it listed as espace balljoint? I pop them out and back in using the press with arm off. One of them ball joint presses that you gun up would do the trick in situ nicely.

Engine mounts are an easy swap, nothing to worry about regarding snapped bolts.

Ive seen solid rack bushes for sale if you want an alternative.

Boot floor needs changing to flat 182 floor.

At a guess maybe failing fuel pump. Can you hook up diagnostics to the ecu to determine all sensors are reading correctly.

If these drums are similar to mk2 they might have the bearing pressed in, so acid dip will wash all the grease out if that is the case. Id just wire wheel them and prime/paint in situ. Hour a side, will look better than current.

Updates. Kangoo was looking a bit sad and paint was a bit flat with slight oxidation on the roof, bumpers/plastics faded and a bit of oxidation on the headlamps. Ive not polished it since last cut 4 years ago so its done quite well with a handful of applications of c2v3 over the years. Had a...

Ive used it on heavily corroded steel with success, i usually mix it a bit stronger and chuck the parts in for a day or two. Good wire brush before to get the thick off to speed up the process.

Try citric acid with water for rust dipping mate ;) basically the same stuff at less than 1/4 of the price

A few pics from on track. Its a shame i never got a few more sessions in as i like Mallory, its a quick circuit. A few days after Mallory i dug my spare mac valve out to fit. Was originally on the trophy briefly..test it and works OK so wire it up. New one on the left. Fitted and static...

RRG update. Took the Extra van to Mallory Park for Retro Rides gathering a couple of weeks ago. RRG is one of the best Retro car shows of the calendar year and is a mega day. I had booked the Extra on the 2 lap sprint in the afternoon for full send laps on high boost. Id done a bit of prep and...

Thats proper french, just needs a baguette in the pic somewhere :LOL: There is a lot of love for these old renault vans in france. When i took mine to Lci show in paris a couple of years ago the french loved it as its not possble to make a gtturbo conversion in one legal overseas.

Great job on the caliper refurb
