the prima cams seem ok, price has gone up though they were £295 when they first came out!!

don't believe you unless you show me all the old filters in one photo...you ain't gettin' a fiver out of me that easy!!

for the ac you bin the idler and use a ribbed one instead and the belt runs under it. to bin ac and pas the pms ac delete or cup alt set up.

fiver says your cabin filter is at least ten years old.

Is timing right? If so then chances are its lambda fault.

Never had a problem, you sure the pinion is the right was round? If it's 180 deg out then bolt won't go back in.

got another one here to fit, he gave reg number and sent same as your one.

Not something I'vehad to think about before but won't quite be as simple as that though I don't think. Have got a head somewhere with cams in might have a play with it after.

Go in from drivers side wheel arch. 13mm nut on it.

Get the cap tested first. Had one last week that was doing similar thing and was a faulty cap, genuine Reno one and not that old either. Had a load of spare caps and tested five until I got one that was holding full pressure.

It pulls out with the column.

s**t happens. I had a 182 in with bent valves, swapped the head over for a good one and got the cams mixed up, didn't notice until I tried pulling the cam cover down, swapped cams over but penny didn't drop until I'd got it timed up that I'd bent valves on the new head...c'est la vie...

Does sound more like cable/adjustment with the bit being low. Odd that clutch feels heavy at the mileage though, have found they don't seem to get heavy until around 80,000 miles or more.

how did you even get the cam tool in?

That's for the horn.

early phase 1 adjusts in the car, late phase 1 and phase 2 adjust under the car.

odd one. trying to think what would cause it other than the quality of the boot.

all the same make?

just seen cheap boots fall apart in no time. don't bother with renault one, you're paying for the name, get a gkn one from euro.

what make of boot?

remove airbag and then unbolt steering wheel.

yes, it will fit on your car without breaking anything. got four sat on the drive now if you want me to go and take a picture for you just to prove i'm not for some reason bullshitting you??

fitted loads of them, just a bit of a jiggle and will go on fine.

as long as they are intact they can be re used, i use stag wellseal on them and never had a problem.

top of the wiper pops open and you hook it in through that.

if i tell you they are a couple of quid each on beal will that make you cry??

bet they weren't cheap from renault!!

ferriday do a decompression plate for the f4r.

the wife's 172 has done well over 200,000 miles now, got it on 140,000. i kick it's head in most of the time when i drive it and it's still going strong.

you don't need to worry about breaking the old ones, i was doing pipes for someone while they were watching with a worried look as i was just snapping and chopping the old ones off, told them how much time it saved and got the reply of 'oh aye, can you get the new ones on as quick?'
