Thanks guys, yes I understand the mounting of it may be an issue, but i've found a holder that has windscreen and vent attachements, so I can try both. Failing that I will just get the mrs to hold it! It will be connected to the aux in anyway so will be able to hear it!

I have an iPad 2 wifi + 3g. Does anyone use an iPad as GPS in the car? If so does it work well? Would it be better with an external GPS receiver? What's the best Navigation App to use? Thanks Chris

Isn't 57 - 44 = 13?

Sneaky edit there martynzs! I may be able to tell you shortly, my 197 was due last october..............

Depends if you have the money to replace the engine when it snaps?

Some will, some wont. Best to call and ask before and ask before just turning up. how much of a stretch are we talking? What tyre and rim size?

I moved the plate originally, but it only helped for about 2 or 3 weeks. Tape has been on for months now and it's been perfect!

Yours I assume?

Probably!

Good point! YTS lad probably took it for a spin at 7.4k revs on a cold engine!

What is the saying........... 'a fool and his money are easily parted' just kidding mate, it's a real shame but unfortunately people can't be trusted. You need to get proof of these things.

Quite a common problem mate, the tape trick seems to be the most used method to fix it too.

Yup, passenger one is on the wrong way up! I've got more decals so ill get them changed. Well spotted!

I never really checked, but you may well be right! I'll go and have a look,

I use Mintex pads on mine, they were about £40. They are fine for road use. You could get Pagid pads, again oe quality at a lower price. Or you could speak to G.172 (I think that's his name) as I believe he can supply Brembo pads at a good price.

My advice would be: 1) Post in the right section. There is a brakes section under ClioSport technical. 2) Do a search, this will have been covered many times. Do you want standard pads or uprated? Do you do any track work?

Fair enough. 72k is a crazy number of miles for a set of plugs!

Why is it 72k on the 1*2 but only 36k on the 197/200?

I would hope they haven't been in for 50k! the interval is 36k i believe!

Is there a thread about your Nova anywhere?

Did you slow down half way or something?!

PSA lumps arent they? If so they should be very clean burning. The use a DPF system that 'catches' the crap and burns it off every so often. The 136ps 2.0 lump I used to have in my Pug 307 NEVER EVER smoked in general use. Out neighbour has an SMAX with the same engine and it also is very...

Nobody?

Thanks for the comments guys, I'm well chuffed with them.

Spare wheel isn't tested, a lot of cars don't even come with spare wheels anymore!

I have a small (6 litre) compressor. I just used that on low pressure (about 20-30psi moved them no problem). I've heard it can be done with a foot pump or similar, but i'm not sure how.

With a compressor and a block of wood. Hopefully my guide should be up at some point, it has more pictures showing how I did it. Chris

Here was this weekend project, I'm just writing a 'how to guide' which will be up later this evening. For now here is some before/afters Before, lots of chips in the paint and ruined dust seals After, better paint and new seals Ignore the budget tyre!! Keep an eye out...

They don't have a clue what they are doing. Take it elsewhere.
