I have visu and can get the later 182 pinout if you need it.

Cheers all. Cant wait to get them on and set up. @Waitey the rears are custom to fit my Kangoo. Cooksport had the rear shocks off to measure it all up, discussed a few options and it was agreed best option was to do away with the inboard springs for the full coilover, to save the hassle of...

Great updates. I wouldnt worry about the oil consumption too much, they all use a bit when the mileage is getting up there. Quick ring job will sort that if itstarts getting a bit smokey from cold. As for oil filters, i use purflux 932 which is as good as oem, same manufacturer. Gsf sell them...

Ps3's are quite soft sidewall but does not usually cause a big issue handling wise. Ad08r old compound used to be a nice compromise of stiffer sidewall and good grip but i believe the new ones are not as good. Ive had similar issues on my old Kangoo and my current dci when the bumpstop fell...

Oem. Good quality and last

Long time no update All has been well with the Kangoo. Just before xmas i took it to Cooksport for a rolling road day/catch up with a few good friends. It was a long journey approx 600 mile round trip but no issues at all. Had a run on the rollers whilst there The main reason for the...

Should settle in nicely. I had 225 ph1 wheels on mine ages ago looked OK but not amazing. I always fancied trying 17" clio cup racer speedlines on mine, i think the laguna has a similar design wheel.

Clean the egr and pipe

Yep sounds like its chucked a leg out, quite a few have blown up now as mileage and age is not on their side. Might be able to salvage the head and a few bits if your lucky. Block is easy to get as can use a 225/r26 one, stick a set of forged pistons and rods in and should have a nice solid engine.

Look good. Ive wanted to make a mame cabinet for years but its time and room they take up

Rear abs sensor bracket rots away so might be related to that at a wild guess. You need to scan it with clip to find the issue.

306/300 with beautiful curves. Random crap box was awesome, we happy.

As above get the necessary airbags coded out with clip its the better option. Assuming your worried about mot/stock steering wheel? Just refit and dont connect the airbag wiring up, tester wont know as airbag light will work as normal.

Looks class, done a great job on it(y)

Bead roller looks good. On alloy pipes the molegrips with welded exhaust clamp/penny washer works well for a cheapy. Ive had 28psi through my hoses and nothing popping off. 1/2 router is king from experience @andy_con i used to always use trend cutters when i was on the tools. Still need to...

Probably best off getting an aftermarket set if somebody will copy them. I done a trackday in the megane and the heat/exhaust fumes marked the plate as its some kind of cheap plastic

Thats nothing on the grand scale of things. Could take the high spots off if your fussy, id prob just send it as is. Only need to be real fussy if its going to be a mega money high rpm build.

Ill have my H&R springs up for sale soon if your interested

If the engine is quiet just keep running it. Most are probably as worn now

Looks tidy (y) Bad starting might be an airleak on a diesel pipe, i believe the hand primer fails.

Needs scanning with can clip to see why the spanner light is on and go from there.

Just seen there is a new michelin pilot sport 5. Will be interesting to see if any better than the 4.

Id personally avoid like the plague if you dont know your way round the k9k engine. Revving up on its own sounds like a recipe for a large bill

Yep always run quality rubber on anything fast. Even run michelins on the daily, which have absolutely lasted ages compared to budgets. Ive currently got goodyear eagle f1 asymmetric 5 on my Kangoo. Crap compared to ps4, it will currently light the tyres up at 1/3 throttle in first 3 gears, was...

Ive been looking at the same stubby ratchet spanners. Ideal for occasional jobs and cheap enough. Us pro stuff is alright too, ive got a few bits and no complaints.

Just change the runner. I believe the side mounts are just bolted to a bog standard runner.

Cant wait for this

Get it scanned with can clip and read the fault codes stored. At a wild guess it might be a knackered injector

Orange dci went straight through its mot Wed morning. Its wanted for nothing apart from servicing this year, not done loads of miles though around 3k from memory. Give them both a clean up and headlamps a little tickle with the d/a as going a bit yellow. Tallying up the spends on the blue one...

Needs must the oil consumption and blue smoke was getting too bad :LOL: All back together and running good have done 70 miles in it up to now, no smoke from cold so id say its been a success. £180 in parts and 2 days work so not the worst. Id have rather just changed engine for good used, but...
