I'm not too sure tbh mate I know a few of the lads in the dCi circle have killed boxes at about 375ftlbs. A bloke in Portugal gas a forged 250 running stupid horsepower and still hasn't killed the box so not sure if he's done some trickery with it

It's the white plastic part that usually breaks inside Someone needs to start 3D printing them tbh, last time I bought one they were £9!

I made the mistake with my megane, new condenser and drier... The AC is still a bit poo now so not sure if it's a pressure switch or condenser issue plus the O-ring I replaced is still crap :cry: Luckily my mate gassed it up so come February I'll sort them issues and slide him a backhand so he...

Ah I've got ya now haha, you should be alright to blow through the evaporator with compressed air to get rid of the crap just make sure to blow through both ways Might as well do the job once and do it properly mate, these things are a right headache when you spend weeks or months continually...

Aye but you shouldn't have to completely remove the alternator and bracketry if you're hoying the rad out too mate I'd personally go genuine or a reputable brand, saves any headaches down the line. As for the pump, just check there ain't any debris in where the pipes would connect, they're...

Some do and some don't mate, same when I did the belt on my brothers D4F 16v. Renault just like to change things after a year for no reason lol

That's a right chuffer! Only thing I can suggest is to go full ham hand in 5th gear with a breaker bar mate

Jesus, just drive to a garage and let them have at it with the windy gun haha, then get them to nip it tight and drive it home 😂

No worries mate I'm not too sure but there were a few different cam sprockets for the E7J and the D4F but some have a hole in them that will line up with the head that you can get a 6mm drillbit into quite nicely to lock the cam. Just check if yours has that too This is the torx bolt Should...

Lock the crank before doing anything, for all you know the cam and crank could already be out a tooth mate. Then make sure the TDC mark on the cam lines up and then just whip the belt and tensioner off D4F and E7J are nice and simple anyway with the SOHC

If you're taking the rad out then you will have plenty of room without messing with the alternator mate Just check thecondition of the compressor and you may as well replace the pressure switch too because once you've gassed it up that's it 😂

If you send anything but PAG oil or gas through a compressor it won't last long at all. Clean everything out and you shouldn't have that horrible feeling in the back of your mind Also, it's easier to take the alternator out, get the bracket out of the way and then whip the condenser out the top...

25 years old Insurance companies are usually knobsacks that double your renewal in the hope you don't shop around and they then get extra money for nothing

There's a torx on the front of the block you need to remove and then insert a locking pin in to lock the crank and then on the cam pulley there's a little notch that should line up with a little notch on the rocker cover/head in the 12 o'clock position

Yeah theyre not the best, someone has used Transit Connect 1.8 injectors but you need to run a piggyback ECU to control them. Not worth the effort tbh😂

Get it mapped but you'll only see about 130bhp before the injectors run out of puff mate

Yeah theyre pretty poor as well tbh People have had issues with the PK4 above 350ftlb... Mine will be limited to that when it goes for mapping😂

Not a problem mate Bit of a shitty situation but it should at least put you at ease that you caught it before it buzzsawed through the full bellhousing and ruined everything including the engine block! I do admire your man maths though "Oh well the engine is out so cams and bodies might as...

The PK4 box is about 80kg with fluid, whereas a JC5 is about 40kg with fluid. My megane has a PK4 and lifting one of those onto a gearbox jack alone is enough to put me off 😂

Best thing to do is get some 10mm longer bimecc studs with the bullet tips and steel nuts I like the look of proper mudflaps on scooter, them ones however just look proper Playmobil😂

People are put off by having to notch the chassis leg for the PK4/ND0 Plus if you felt the weight of one you'd realise turbo'ing the standard engine with a Megane headgasket, getting a diff, mapping and all the bits would work out far cheaper than even buying a 265 engine

That last win was absolute skill... 😂 f**king pissed myself at @Moonshot telling Luke to get better 😂

Tbh I try and tone it down because it's grating when you're listening for something and you've got a shaved chimp screaming I don't rage as much as I used to. I'm not like @Ant1 where he throws his mouse at his monitor and then instantly regrets it 😂

Yeah thats totally f**king fucked big time m8 Get that box shoved into a new casing, I have a spare box here if needed bud. As for the little thing on there its where they balance the cover plate. Not that its accurate because there's only 3 points where they can stick them on anyway🤦‍♂️😂 I...

And then when they bang their hand they just shout "you f**king dirty greasy c**t, get in a f**king bin you horrible little c**t" Or something like that probably🤷‍♂️😅😂

He put the mrs and baby on for a game whilst he went for a jobbie 😂

Mine did the same! Gonna still inspect the threads with a bore scope to be on the safe side

Nah matrix is always open flowing, just that the coolant won't be sent to it until the thermostat opens

Drain it from the bottom rad hose, take the top rad hose off and stick the hosepipe in the top of the rad, leave it running water through for 10 mins. Top the car up and stick the hoses back on and run it, then drop the water out the bottom rad hose and fill with coolant Make sure to get a new...

Question is... Did you win?
