    Whats everyones idle with Rs Tuner ? And gearbox life ?

    afaik the raised idle is to make it smoother, gets rid of the vibration, didnt think it was quite 1100-1200 though but im not sure on that. raised limiter wont affect gearbox life, more engine life, apparently the engines shouldnt be used above 7250rpm regularly, cant remember if its the valve...

    hi guys, just a quicky here, im looking at a dci 65 with 140k on the clock, with full service history, motorway miles, now i know my little dynamique 1.2 was running fine apart from burning a bit of oil at 140k but how are the diesels any better, any worse? apparently its got thousands of...

    182 unsteady at speed

    check the rear dampers for leaking oil as said above, when mine went it was VERY unstable at speed and under braking it was actually that i noticed more than the handling due to mine going in winter when i wasnt pushing it. i know mine goes over 140mph most days i take it out for a blast and...

    Cool Mods For Skint People....

    if my budget was £100 id go for.... Non RS Clio - Apex -60mm springs (save up for dampers at a later date) spend the rest on getting the tracking done properly RS Clio - Decat (you probably already have a stainless system as the original fell off a few times!) maby fit an ITG filter in there...

    admiral mate, should give them a try if your a young driver, they seem to be brilliant for us. as for to do it or not do it, personally id pay it, i payed £2500 3rd party on my 172 when i got it at 17 and that was paying it all in 1 lump so not the added interest if you pay monthly, yep £2500...

    Disgusted with Renault!

    i agree with weebaws, as long as you've been supplyed with a suitable car while yours is being repaired so your not inconvienienced, uve came off £75 better off tbh and id make sure the seats are replaced under warranty as you know yourself that is NOT wear and tear

    Admiral Multicar

    its really handy as you can insure 1 car when the renewal is due and dont need to pay the other car(s) untill they are due so saves paying a bit lump at once!

    Disgusted with Renault!

    tbh i think asking for sideskirts and splitter is a bit too much, no way would they give you that as you would then get chancers doing it all the time! i do agree that £75 is a bit low but to be honest they are quite right, you still have a full warranty left to have any problems sorted out...

    cheapest way to go faster!?!?

    loose weight is the first step, if you dont want to be hardcore and loose the back seats and get light weight front seats etc then just loose the spare wheel, tool kit, boot liner etc next step some eibach SportLine springs (make sure the dampers especially the rear ones are in good condition...
