    Seeping vvt

    I think the seal will be OK if its fully home. Its a bit of a b*****d to get in square tbh. I noticed the top of the vvt sensor is quite loose on mine so might even be coming out of there. If its very minor would not worry about it, can chase stuff like this forever sometimes.

    Seeping vvt

    Might just be oil that was on the sensor, drive it and keep an eye on it. The vvt sensor on mine has a groove worn into it where the seal sits so not that good a fit on the new seal. Doesnt seem to be leaking now though.

    Good question mate, i just went through until one fitted tight out of a selection from an o ring kit i have. It was a bit loose on map sensor initially but nipped up tight when map sensor is fitted. s**t design ot be fair, i see some aftermarked map sensors have a rubber sleeve on instead of the...

    B-shaw’s PH1 Exclusive

    Take rubber out of old bracket and refit in new one, cable tie to secure job done. I went ultra pikey and fitted a universal polyehxaust hanger inside my dci exhaust bracket. 20k later still solid

    Alternatives to PS3

    I run the same pressures, Fine for road use. I use 15" ps3 on my dci..they really shine in the s**t conditions, grip feels great. The mrs meg250 has Ps4s on and they are seriously confidence inspiring in the wet. I dont think i would use another brand of tyre for all weather road use tbh.

    Brigsy's other cars - formerly kangoo 172 cup

    Got a couple of jobs done last Sat First up was vvt sensor seal, noticed this leaking before Croft. 15 min job dead easy, changed map sensor o rings as had gone very flat/loose Next up was gear oil, drained into a container then filtered to see if any contamination/swarf after fitting the...

    Glow plug light 1.5dci 100

    Red one is the map sensor mate you need that connected up

    Glow plug light 1.5dci 100

    Get a pic up mate. Get it plugged into clip for diagnostics, fault code will be stored

    Glow plug light 1.5dci 100

    Glowplug light is the engine management light. Probably on due to the sensor not connected

    Me too, the genuine crank pin handles it no bother.

    Just picked up my 270bhp clio

    To pull any good 60ft on the strip drag radials are a must and then they put massive wear on the drivetrain, i used to knacker an outer cv every 15/20 runs. Back in the day 20”x8 M&H. 1.7 sec 60ft & 12.67 @ 106 ish from memory. Ran it on road tyres a handful of times late 13s/low 14s?

    ESP ECU into non-ESP Clio 172

    You would need to swap the immobiliser chip over on the uch or get the ecu immobiliser reset. Prob easier to pick up another cheap ecu/uch pack ?

    ESP ECU into non-ESP Clio 172

    Somebody might have programmed it out on the uch. Does the airbag light come on with ign ?

    ESP ECU into non-ESP Clio 172

    Yes mate i have clip. Central locking should fire up straight away wonder if uch is damaged ? I had one that said boot was always open..i think somebody had swapped immobiliser chip to a mis matched uch.

    ESP ECU into non-ESP Clio 172

    It will fire up and run if you fit the Uch/Ecu pack and matched key from the breaker. You will need to reprogram the uch with clip if any unwanted lights appear on the dash. I imagine the asr warning light will be on and the serv light. The ecu in front of the handbrake is for airbags. Keep...

    What are the best performance mods?

    First one probably didnt have ported head not many people spend the dollar getting it done. Get a health check done on current one, compression test and serviced/belts changed if not done. If belts have been done and depending whos fitted the bits might need the timing checked - as when out it...

    Racing blue 182

    I bet its quite hard to correct oversteer without any pas. Does your epas feel a bit numb ? My dci has a dead spot. Ill prob go epas on mine for ease, would really like to do a hybrid hpas with electric pump as the oem hpas feels great to me.

    Racing blue 182

    Looks great on the black 2118s. Im in the same situation with the hpas on my kangoo, the pipework is about shot so need to sort it asap. Cant decide whether to fit epas or go for a hybrid hpas with electric pump a bit like the cup racers. Its awful with no pas from the tow or 3 its had lol

    £25 Mintex Race Pads (M1177)

    I see these were in the Clio cup gen2 parts manual. Any good for track use ?

    Performance Ignition leads

    Save your money mate they do nothing to increase performance. A new set of oem Renault leads will last miles longer. I binned a set of magnecor, fitted crap and causing random misfire. They have always been a let down no matter what car ive tried them on

    Took it out Sunday and give it a fair bit of abuse and seems ok. Guess we are ready for another trackday if weather stays mild !

    Alternatives to PS3

    Stick to the PS3's. Yes they are not as good as ps4 but the best road tyre available in the correct size of 16". Not really suited to track use but the XL sidewall are decent.
