You got a link for this? cant seem to find it?

To be honest ive not driven the car since then as its being turned into a track car. When the work starts on it i will be getting the issue sorted. If you find anything out feel free to PM me mate so i can save time messing around!

I think i read somewhere that (if you have climate control) you dont need to put your heating on full, you just need to set the temperature to a comfortable one (mines at 22degrees) and your car wont use as much fuel as it would when your heating is set to max all the time? maybe worth a try...

Love the car... Does anyone else think they sound just like an R5 GTT or is that just me? any performance upgrades planned? A remap has got to be on the cards surely?

Thanks for clearing that up Chip... When's your book out? Lol

Cheers for your input Chip... So is being able to rev further what gives bike engines the ability to make such big bhp for the size of the engine? What is it exactly that allows a vtec to rev so high and freely in comparison to other engines? Ive read a few of your posts now where you mention...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQn9NINPrmM&sns=em Worth a watch... Surprised it made that power on low boost? torque seems low too? Or is that the nature of the K20/V-Tec engine?

Drove past you this morning about 7.45... both of our cars need a damn good wash haha!

Would love to drive those roads, they way you can sweep from corner to corner... Nice focus too!

Just came across this video, roads looking amazing to drive and little or no traffic! Anyone know where it is?? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLLxJZOJn6s&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Brilliant! Nice work Andy!

http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?573667-1*2-Gearbox-Oil-Change When i changed mine i did it with an hold bit of hose pipe and a funnel... got my mate to hold the funnel and pour the oil in, whilst i lay on the floor and held the pipe in place as it was quite tricky but saved buying...

Cheers Andy, looks like this needs to be looked at... i shall try and find some time to do this at the weekend as a matter of priority!

Unfortunately not, been mad busy with work and literally havent had any day light hours to get to the bottom of this... one thing is for sure, the problem is still there! As soon as i get time to sort it i will update!

Re: AndyRG - Opps ive done it again! WHAT!! forged with a TD05 (same as an evo 8 right?) for less than £1k... thats some going andy, hats off to you mate! what kind of power would you have got from std internals and a smaller blower?

Id say its the Leads... I had this problem twice on my ph1 around this time of year, it seemed to be the cold and wet weather that caused the problems. I sourced a 2nd hand lead off a member on here which was fine, then a few weeks later another went so i just replaced the lot... No problems...

Re: AndyRG - Opps ive done it again! +1 Are all the internals std at the moment Andy? be interesting to see how many ponies you can get out of it with that TD04 unit (not sure if im making the TD04 bit up?)

Re: AndyRG - Opps ive done it again! Finished already? have you had it mapped at all yet?

Re: AndyRG - Opps ive done it again! Haha brilliant! Looking forward to the finished result... what stage are you at now?

Ive just insured my 182 with them and really cant recommend them enough! I think there is a chap there called Greg that has a clio so is familiar with all the mods RS Tuners etc... They insured my RS tuner map along with my other mods suspension, wheels, induction etc at no extra cost. When i...

Re: AndyRG - Opps ive done it again! Thats awesome! has it been more or less costly than forging an F4R from start to finish??

any pics? I think these are my favourite colour though...

I think these would look smart, albeit a bit bright!!

Re: AndyRG - Opps ive done it again! Awesome work as usual Andy! What figures are you looking for?

Thanks everyone for the tips... il get to work on all of these asap and hope for some mist free driving this winter! Cheers again! Ross

I know this may seem like a stupid post, but ive never experienced anything like it. Ive got two clios, a ph1 172 and now my daily drive is a 182. Ive owned a fair few cars since passing my test 9 years ago and have never experienced a windscreen that steams up so much!! Its only started...

Yeah you can, you just load the OEM map back on... i did this to see whether there was any difference between the two maps

Thanks for the help guys!! Will get the aux belt looked at ASAP as I had them all done whilst this was happening... I think you're right regarding the exhaust! Very annoying, will play around with it this weekend Ross

Hi All, couple of long term annoying problems on my ph1... 1. My ph1 since buying it has made a grinding noise under hard acceleration in 1st gear, and now 2nd gear too! All engine mounts are solid, gear box etc, had it looked at under the car etc by a VW mechanic about a year or two ago and...

I have owned my Ph1 for 4 years and 8 months now. I have no intention of ever selling it as its worth more to me than it would be to sell it. I plan to maintain it myself and see how long it will last. currently on 95k and going strong!
