Yeah if it persists this week I'll pop back to the garage and ask them to have a quick look. I'll try and have a drink of the water next time lol see what it tastes like.

Stayed down.

Cheers for the replies. I knew the aircon system didn't use coolant as such but wasn't sure if there were water pipes running into that area for the matrix etc. The coolant dropped about 2cm over a few days. Waterpump etc was not long done by a specialist so I hope it's nothing to do with that.

That's what I hoped or condensation. But the level in the header tank is dropping too.

Morning! Bit puzzled as to where this leak can be coming from as my 172 knowledge isn't the greatest. Had the car about a year now and in that time the aircon has never worked as a pipe to the condenser had a hole in. Changes that last weekend, got it gassed up and it was working to its full...

Great idea, cant wait to see how this pans out! Im doing two weeks driving through europe in august and will do a write up no doubt.

They're definitely still sort after wheels, freshly refurbed sets have gone for £400. I'd agree with above 2/250 if all straight and in useable condition.

Nothing, you'd be best just getting them sent to me and I'll save you the hassle of taking them to the tip.

Seen both the koenigsegg and la Ferrari a few times around town, looks like they're owned by the same person. Jealous.

Back down the yard this weekend to carry on with fixing the leak in the sump. Stopped off on the way to pick up the trailer from storage and move it into its new home, will be much better off inside as the weather has rotted the boards pretty quickly, doesn't help that some idiots jumped on it...

Couple of recent spots while out and about. This had been stuck behind me and polo for a while so pulled into the right lane and pulled away in anger, sounded amazing! IMAG1469 by terry clarke, on Flickr Was even more in shock when I saw this coming up behind. IMAG1343 by terry clarke, on Flickr

Seen it half a dozen times in various places around maidstone in the last month, someone's certainly making use of their new purchase.

Does anyone know if the sumps on the f7p and f7r are the same? thanks

I bought a new gearbox mount (battery tray one) from eBay. Fitted fine and I've had no problems with it.

Cheers, see you've done a fair bit to my old car. Looks in a much better state now.

After fixing the oil cooler we booked up the RenaultSport track day at brands hatch on 9th of April. Had a really good day and the car performed fantastically again, sadly we were still getting a slight oil build up on the bottom of the sump towards the end of the day. Turns out that the sump...

Been thinking about doing this. Neither of mine work and it's passed both its mots since I've had it, but as you say they look a bit untidy.

An e34 m5 if there are any still about in a years time.

Drove exactly the same spec around brands a few weeks ago, jealous! Lovely place to sit, the seats are beautiful and the exhaust noise with the akrapovic is great!

Moving swiftly along scragged oak road at about 7 this morning, anyone on here?

Need to hurry up and fix my oil leak before this happens!

Pictures of your wage slips and some recent utility bills needed before I can comment on your car. Fiesta looks nice, could of opened the door for the interior shot though . Trophy standard?

Finally got around to sorting mine at the weekend, they were both awful! Only remembered to take a before pic once I'd done one already oops! Process was: 1500 2000 2500 3000 Menz 203S on a white hex PO85 on a black hex Sealed with G5 PhotoGrid_1429206421548 by terryclarke13, on Flickr

I bought this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SPECIAL-OFFER-PLAIN-MATT-BLACK-SUNSTRIP-CAR-DECALS-GRAPHICS-/121183347381?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item1c371722b5 It looks like so Quality seems really good and fitment was easy, the key is lots of water so it doesn't stick while you're positioning it.

Its always better to try and catch them whole....

Morning! After our last trip to brands we've noticed a small leak coming from what we believe is the sump gasket. Anyone changed one on a Williams/valver before? What's the easiest method without an engine crane? Did you use a gasket or sealant? What's the best gasket sealant stuff on the...
