I think you need to invest in some ear plugs!

I spent 2 days machine polishing my dad's car about two weeks ago. He collected it at 8am and went straight to golf. When he came out the polish c**t that works in the car park tried charging him a tenner for cleaning it! When my dad said 'look at the ground it's bone dry, you haven't cleaned...

I love this! Don't take it the wrong way, but it looks ratty and purposeful. My kind of car. :D

Awesome work my boy! Bloody awesome. If you think it's loud now, after hearing it in the tunnel in France, it must be obscenely loud!! Lol Love it.

f**k off gally.

Chaps. My mates 172 had a. New dephaser about 4 years ago but the engine has only done 150 miles since then. On Friday it was taken on track (with its new throttle bodies and mtec ecu mapped by Sabre Tuning) and after a successful day, it conked out on the final cool down lap. It failed to...

£556?! f**k that. I'll stick to my £150 a set. Out of interest, what other forums have been giving good feedback?

Your UCH is buggered. Get one from Renault Wolverhampton on here (cheap) drive to your nearest specialist on here (andyrg) and fit it yourself then get him to code it. Will be half the price of Renault.

Sometimes? :(

Want me to pop round one night next week?

They look like 14's, sorry not for me.

That's a cheap car! If I was you, I'd spend the £150-ish and get the bumper repainted. It will put a lot of people off. Your advert is pretty bleak though. No mention of the last service? No mention of when/who did the belts, the pictures are average too. When you advertise a car you need...

I'd strongly advise against using a wet vac on alcantara. It holds a LOT of water and will take ages to dry out properly. As said above, spray with interior shampoo and use clean dry microfibres to wipe. Repeats as much as needed.

Where are you located?

No mate. I think that will be it for 2014.

The red bit doesn't really matter so don't worry too much. You need a very thin flat blade screwdriver to slide into the locking part of the clip and jam it in there. Once it's jammed in, pull (quite hard!) the two black bits. DO NOT pull the wires because they'll break before the clip comes...

You don't need clocks no. If you go secondhand, you need ecu, uch, decoder ring (ignition barrel) and you can just swap your key blade over. If I was you, if it's a nice car and only done 42k, I'd fit new. It's up under the glovebox, black box. From memory it's only a 10mm bolt and a fair...

Not a lot! It's getting weighed before Xmas so we'll find out soon. It's heavier than my mk1 so I should (with a completely standard engine) be glued to his bumper At the next track day. Yesterday gave me some motivation. At last. Just need to find some money. I'm so skint at the minute I...

So it was basically sucking all the air out the cabin? Lol!

There won't be. The UCH controls the windows, locking, lights etc. nothing to do with engine management. (Or nothing that would show up with a fault reader) The last one I replaced I bought from Renault Wolverhampton on here, for under £150 and paid a mate at Renault £20 to code it. Certainly...

Or a full set here; http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/141453652533

First one on there http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/121473828133

Eh?? He just went to Merlin Motorsport and found some gauges that did everything he wanted and looked good. They aren't linked to the ECU.

Iirc, £600 for the speedo/rev/pressure/mileometer, and then £150 for the fuel and £150 for the water. Plus looms, plus sensors. Madness.

If I was on my laptop, I'd post links to each and every set on there. There are loads. Loads and loads. Why can't you see what I see when I look at eBay?? Those wheels came on the dynamique, the extreme (as an option) the extreme 4 and the clio campus sport. I know very well what you're...

Including the wiring and sensors (they don't come with the gauges!!) that little pod was just under £1,200. Plus the hours he spent on the Perspex surround.

If it's just a track car, ditch the power steering all together. Makes life soooo much easier.

Your UCH is dying!

It's taken him 6 years! It is like a show car, but give it half a dozen track days, it will be battered. He has no sympathy!!

See the gaps? Once all the screws are out, you slide it right so the left hand side clears, pull the left hand side free and then the right. He's thought of everything! (Apart from a new dephaser)
