Buy the genuine tools and follow the guide and you'll be fine. Do it yourself for the price you've paid for the car, not worth spending a fortune getting it done when you have the knowledge to do it yourself in my opinion.

As above, it'll be the switch on the handbrake that's the problem I'd imagine. Calipers and handbrake cables won't do anything for the light on the dash.

Just turning the helper spring will not change anything. If you think it feels softer now then it's in your head. The only adjustment is the 2 black rings at the bottom which you can use the change the preload on the springs (raising or lowering the car)

No wifi or satellite BB providers in the area?

I can't see the pictures, but I suspect you have a kit for the TCE engine, which you don't have.

Had a few 306's myself. D turbo, S16 and a 6. I'd have another in a heartbeat if decent ones still existed!

If it doesn't feel down on power you might have got away with it. Even slightly out and you'll lose power.

Should be no need for marking at all. The marks would be pointless as the pulleys are all free floating and have to be loosened to tension the belt properly. That's probably not been done with the right tools tbh.

lol

@Matthew Headon I think we need to clear up which model of car you have. in your other thread you show a picture of a 1.2 non turbo MK3 Clio, but in this thread you say you have a 1.2 TCe? http://www.cliosport.net/threads/clio-192-fitting-an-exhaust-silencer.808058/ Put a clear picture up of...

That's fine as long as you have a filter that doesn't require oil. Running a K&N without oil for example, you may as well not bother with a filter at all. It's the oil that catches the dirt and stops it from entering the engine.

Halfords sell them separately, so no need to buy a set if you only need one or two

What happens when you press and hold the button?

Oh, and what is a Clio 192? I assumed you meant 197 but the picture is a 1.1

If you want more noise then removing boxes is what you want, not adding them. Take out anything other than the back box, will be noisier then. Get a bit of a flat spot at 2.5k revs though.

Is it going to Mick to be fixed? Have the garage you bought it from been made aware of the problem? You need to give them opportunity to fix it otherwise you'll have to pay.

Seems like a lot of hassle. Does it gain much on these?

Every one will be different I would imagine. As @NorthloopCup say's, he strips and replaces what's needed. That will depend on the gearbox being supplied.

Just the flexi's is usually fine as long as the manifold is checked for cracks. I can't see them wanting to stump up for a manifold, aren't they about £1k?

Take it back, tell them to fix it properly. They don't want to because it's a manifold off job to sort.

2014 Jag XK wheels I think he said, 20".

That's relying on the thickness of Primer/top coat being uniform across the car - which is unlikely.

Not too long at all then really, and well worth the effort! Can you recommend anything for alcantara? I need something to keep my steering wheel clean etc.

So much better mate. Take much time to do?

We used this for a collage of baby photos a year or so ago. You just import the photos and position them how you want them.

Anyone interested in a dyno day at Dynotech in Ripley again? We've been a few times and it's always been a laugh.
