Just dropped off at Birchdown, now in a green ph1 for the day. :D

Is the grate locked? I wouldn't imagine it will have washed away just depends how much craps in there

502

Any suggestions for something to removing the caked on dirt in the arches/underneath.

Sorry probably should have phrased that better seems to be symptom of using that calliper on the Clio. Filing the pads back can help along with copper grease, I would hazard a guess it might be something to do with the disk thickness. I gave up myself and switched to the 197 calliper...

It's a symptom of the 406 caliper I believe.

Add spacers to that list too.

I'd prefer a high milage car they tend to have had more maintenance despite the miles look for one that has equal amounts of miles between mots.

Tbh unless your tracking it drilled n grooved discs are pointless, spend your money on the pads not the disc.

Tbf Birchdown are great on price you just have to book a month in advance. ;) As for the top mounts unless there perished or damaged I wouldn't bother replacing them personally but its your call.

From this: To this: Next up cars going over to birchdown to have the Cam cover resealed and the belts done. :)

Only problem I can forsee is stretching the threads by over tightening the wheel bolts.

Tbh it's a easy enough job to do yourself although ring around a few garages get some prices etc.

Think you have answered your own question there mate sounds like a sticking caliper. Abs rings are utter shite on these cars usually the traction control flags up if one of these has cracked.

Made a start on the car today, a quick wash and decontaminate. Then I swapped the spark plugs over which where soaked in oil so that's something else to fix.. Then replaced the rear brakes.

Yeah I'm glad I decided to check them today!

Yeah plug looks good, ffs will have to get it looked at when the belts are done end of the month

Hi Just swapping over the spark plugs and there's oil in the right two spark plugs. The right most has a little in but the middle right has quite abit can't work out where its coming from as the inlets pretty clean and there none in the dips in the top of the engine. Cars been running ok up...

Have you spoken to Tyler@Ultimate pretty sure they are close to £200

Damn must have missed you lot by a couple of hours, went in the evening with an M3 and a ST fantastic day for it tho.

Fred @BTM is prob your best bet for a garage.

I'd have a look at the seals on you Master cylinder either that or air in the system somewhere.

Do you loose any turn in feel with Cooksport's over std setup?

Have you bedded in the new disks and pads yet? Also are the sliders moving freely? Is ABS working?

Me Gusta! would love to own a boosted 197!

Got two of these the other day on staff offer, handy for music through TV's soundbar.

Pointless thread is pointless!

Remind me again what sort of power you are hoping for?

Ah I get ya, yeah that makes sense. Although saying that I do like the feel 4 pots give you over standards especially on a track.

Aye I agree, Just giving him the answer to his specific theoretical question its never going to happen in a real scenario as its impossible to get everything completely the same.
