Hi all,
A colleague has a 1.2 16v Clio on a 52 plate. The revs are hunting and it's generally running badly. I've just read the fault codes and get P0606 & P0440.
I'm aware of the ECU wiring issues, and that's the first place i've looked. It looks like someone has looked at it before as the...
Isn't the camera covered in saphire glass? You're unlikely to scratch that in day to day use to be honest. My watch face has it and whilst the case is scratched everywhere (titanium) the glass is absolutely perfect.
Just checked my Vodafone order - it's packed and ready for delivery! whoop!
If you find the app in app store, it will show that you have it stored in iCloud (a differnet symbol to normal)- you can just install as you would any other app.
As you've kept a cat, you shouldn't get the engine management light on. Either way it takes a couple of hundred miles before it will come on (mine did when I decatted anyway)
You REALLY need a tune now to take advantage of the downpipe as currently you will be gaining very little from it...
It isn't a step behind yours, it's at the same point. The email you have at post 1080 is the same email I have, and my tracker shows it at the above stage.
Not great in my opinion. I'd have expected it to be better than that. How much did they charge?
You'd have been better buying someones old one and having new flexi joints welded in place.
A decent exhaust place should be able to open the box and add more 'stuff' to make it quieter, or add a resonator of some sort to the system? THe standard cat probably won't make all that much difference I wouldn't have thought.
It's perfectly sensible thing to say if you think about it. The only way the OP is going to gain any significant power from that engine is going to be turbo/supercharger. Both of which are going to cost £3k+ to do and realistically going to acheive what maybe 180bhp?
The logical thing to do...
It's a 1.6 n/a engine, it's never going to be very powerful.
I'd save your money and spend it either a) improving handling and braking b) buying a faster car.
Anything else is just throwing money away.
Innocent until proven guilty remember guys!
Just because he's been arrested for it, it doesn't mean he actually did anything wrong. Genuine accidents do happen!
RIP to the one who died, I wish a speedy recovery for all others involved.
Afraid not. Well I've swapped them out for a new pair of brembo discs and instantly it feels better, I'll just have to wait and see if it returns. If so I've got a deeper issue but I've no clue what!
No money required as they don't need to be rebuilt. All they require is servicing. Strip the pins & pads out, clean and grease everything up put back together. 30-60mins per side and a small number of hand tools. Maybe £50 if you had to get them done at a garage, free if you do it yourself...
