Ok cheers . If you wanted it set up more accurately , could it be done on the rollers like they use for your MOT brake test ?

So basically its guesswork , a bit of trial n error ?

Cheers Alan . Top man :)

Get some cat repellent .Cos even even if you polish the scratches out and they walk over your car your back to square one . http://www.greengardener.co.uk/repel.htm

Its not getting hold of em , its how much they cost , even from a breakers they can be £60 just for one .Then you don't know if its any good until you fit it .

Afaik they both do . If somebody knows better correct me if i'm wrong .They have a test similar to an MOT but alot stricter .

Cat d and c are repairable but uneconomical for the insurance company . Yeah it has to have strict a test before its put back on the road . Check our wrecks n rides on sky Tuesday nights , Vicky Butler Henderson and some annoying bald cockney bloke ...

I couldn't find it mate sorry , keep checkin somebody might upload it soon eh :)

How many episodes are there ? What series . I've found series 3 episodes 1- 6 if thats any good ?

Couldn't find car wars , sorry mate , might be a bit too new .

Renault should be able to get the caliper seal kits , or Peugeot , the calipers on the 172 or almost exactly the same as the calipers as on a Pug 306 S16 , same seal kit , cost about £25 ish last time i bought one but that was a couple of years ago .

As far as i know you need to know what your doing altering the brake bias valve , not your typical diy job . If its braking ok i'd leave it alone . I don't know how they are set up , but i would imagine it would have to be on the rollers .

Yep . As far as i know they fit cobra alarms as standard .

I thought it sounded strange . Glad you got to the bottom of the problem ,lol ;)

Lol no probs .If its just the piston binding a bit , all you need to do is pop the piston out of the caliper body , check for rust obviously then copper grease the inside of the caliper , pop the piston back in jobs a good un . Doesn't take that long and costs are minimal , new fluid , a bit of...

Go for it then mate :) Just sounds like its a bit seized to me , could be sorted if thats all it is . Exchange front calipers are about £84 if you choose this route instead : http://www.speedways.co.uk/shop/

A local motor factor shop should be able to get hold of em for ya or some companies on the net . I just just find it hard to believe that " both " calipers are bent . Who actually said that they were bent ?

If you get in contact with Renault UK or maybe even a local dealership they could probably sort you out with the relevant books in English . I saw a thread a while back on here where the guy had to service book . Renault uk sent a new 1 .

So would i mate . Refurbed calipers are about £100 each on an exchange basis . My only thought was how , IF at all are the calipers bent ? If they are only slightly binding its not a hard job to fix .

Ok , if you get em fitted , get some pics of the 4 pots up , would like to see em :)

What spring / release ??? Only springs are on rear calipers ( a return spring and 5 sprung thrustwashers ) and they are inside the caliper body itself which most people never see .

How have you bent your calipers ,lol ? I'd strip em down , clean em up , take out the piston and grease inside but seeing cash ain't an issue thats up to you . I'd love to know how you've bent em , which part is bent ?

Whats wrong with your calipers mate ?

What website is it ?

The disk size should be 259mm .The disk size for a 1.2 8v is 238mm . Did you order the disks for the vehicle or did you measure the disks and order the same size as the ones that were fitted . The whole area of the pad should be in contact with the disc , usually leaving a couple of mm on the...

I have 2 handbooks . The first ( greenish ) one is generic to all clio models " except " the sport model . Then i have an additional one with 14 pages ( blue ) which is specific to the sport models .
