well the only lube I had was called slide and ride and the father in law was about so I didn't fancy whipping that out.... :S

I'm sure someone has a pic. Or at least of a 30mm drop. cheers for replying anyway :)

yeah I'm happy with that Steve, cheers for that mate. what's the difference between the standard and cup shocks?

not a bad price for that setup. is 30mm enough of a drop?

have only just noticed while messing around under the bonnet that I have ktec topmounts. Its still got the standard suspension setup so what, if any preference suits these topmounts best? I'm not looking to slam it as my driveway is sloped but want a nice subtle stance that is visibly noticeable...

yup, disconnected the fan and all working fine. Cheers guys, another easy fix :D

have got a noise coming from passenger side xenon light when ignition is turned on. sounds like an electric motor turning. I think its the leveling mechanism constantly adjusting from what I can think. I have just had some engine work done so it could of got knocked. just wondered if anyone else...

cheers, does the surround just pop off?

has anyone got a decent fix for this? mine has started doing it all of a sudden, very annoying!

that's what I thought lol. Was a bit of a silly question but now I know anyway :p

ok just wondered

can a dephaser be reused? mines come out today with no issues with it. Its being changed with the cambelt, aux etc but its not got any issues with it. is out of a 50k engine. just wondered if someone needed one cheap.

how do you know what Ron a garage is selling?

worn cams? How many miles on it?

hmm does sound noisy but you are holding the phone in the engine bay. If I put my head in there I'm sure it would be loud. Does sound a bit knocky but if your unsure just take it back to who done the work on it and tell them your not happy. did it sound like that when you bought it?

I see a lot of this "special tools" thing on cambelt posts. The garage down the road from me work on all cars and they just borrow or rent the special tools from friends in the trade....

hijackers :D well this is what I was going to get to anyway. I was going to ask what the best map was and where to get it done and what price.

ah right ok, I havnt read that post yet, you got a link? this has got excessive Renault history with everything apart from cambelt done by them. I know that's not always gospel but it all feels tight. Just a lumpy tickover so maybe its just that it needs the new belts.

haha its actually quite embarrassing. I can get then off and keep the standard sized plates for a while its just to damn cold outside. the bloke who had it was about 60 with denim on denim if that's anything to go by but he did look after the car well

cheers Daniel. I will get me a set ordered now then. Fella who I bought it off had chrome surrounds on the plates. No no no.

yeah was thinking that, will do. what was the problem you had then?

I like the 3/4 plate on the front to fit into the recess. Bit confused on size as some posts are saying 520x84 and some are saying 520x90 so just wanted to clarify. also want a rear one, are they just standard uk sized or do custom ones look nicer?

yeah was going to say, top end it pulls like a train but takes a bit to get there. my mate works at a Renault garage in Stourbridge. Ive got all the parts from ads so all genuine kits going on. its not excessive but its sort of juddery. Your at the meet on Tuesday aren't you?

does your clio (172) take a while to pick up power? I don't mean its lagging but the power isn't instant sometimes. is a bit like my 2 stroke 250 mx bike, once you hit the power and it goes on a mad one but has to build up to get to it. maybe its just me but I was just curious. is in for a...

oh it almost got uploaded there mate. Lucky you deterred me.

sound mate. Be nice to get to know some people on here personally instead of just reading comments :) I need to know what brand my exhaust is aswell so hopefully you can tell me

I should be there. In for a cambelt service on thursday/friday so if no mishaps I'm there. If I'm welcome that is being a newbie :)

:up:ah yes, that's the section I was looking for, cheers mod

haha very good. you win a like. Take a bow!

what's going on here then?
