    Dent Removed AND a Meguiars Convert

    Nxt followed by megs #16 is a great combination, last well too. Ive got a little tip for you. If you are using NXT paste wax from a tin and also #16 from a tin you can mix the contents. Wait till you only have a bit of each left, then spoon the two into one tin. Place the tin (without lid) in...

    optimal gear changes for a 172

    Cheers Rhys . Do you watch the rev counter or do you do it by listening to the engine rpm. Im thinking first 2 gears where the rpms rise crazy quick. Are there any rules about driving barefooted? It helps me get better control of the clutch and accelerator especially when trying to find traction ?

    How do you pay for your clio sport

    £1k /month mortgage , £130 council tax. My clio sport is my car but I use it for work. Work mileage reimbursement easily covers the cost of the car plus tidy profit each month.

    Cleaning leather

    Which product is it that actually smells like leather ? Im currently using meguiars leather cleaner and conditioner in one and it does the job, nothing special though. Works much better on my leather sofas.

    Car Waxing - Advice Req Moving from Zymol

    I use NXT and then #16 afterwards. #16 makes it last for ages. NXT seems to last a week or two for me where as when topped with #16 it lasts a good 7 weeks. Worth the effort and is just as easy to buff off as NXT.

    Clio error codes

    Nevermind, i just tried it. Mine started beeping and the guages all moved, its quite cool. then I pressed the stalk and also got the t--- message. I guess you have to turn the car off to stop it. After i restarted the car the dash lights went off quicker than normal.

    How to care for your clios paintwork

    When i was in France for the last 3 weeks the road we lived on was being relaid. It was the cheap way, tar down then sprinkle loose gravel on top. The probem was that the tempertures there were over 30c everyday and the road temperatures were sky high. Because of this the tar could never harden...

    Gutted!!!!

    Could it have been the workmen who saw the amber lights all round your car and then keyed it. I know when i first saw the pics in the other thread I thought, thats asking for trouble.

    pics before/after touch up pen

    I would leave it, with that many chips it might be easier just getting a permanent felt tip pen on the white bits.

    182 - problems getting key in/out...

    My key used to do that , its now been ok for 1/2 year. I used to have to wiggle the steering wheel a bit before inserting the key if it didnt go in. My old vw golf key died on me a few years back, but that was because it could double as a philips head screw driver and i ended up warping the tip.
