Had this a couple of times (most recently a couple weeks ago) and was a single injector as noted above.
Think Renparts sell genuine injectors for about £33 each. They were on amazon recently for £27 but keep fluctuating in price. Anything cheaper than that is unlikely genuine and may cause...
This is what put me off too.
I went with a Magnaflow custom 200 cell cat and got it welded into a Milltek decat pipe. The parts cost me about £110 at the time plus the welding cost on top.
I've just checked the warranty, the ebay ad advises a life time warranty on the cat, but seems like...
Also forgot that this weekend just gone, i fitted a vibra technic upper gearbox mount, as the standard mount was feeling a little sloppy, and it was affecting gear changes at higher revs.
I already had a powerflex black insert upper engine mount, and purple dog bone mount, this was the last one...
I've been meaning to start a project thread for this car for some time now. I bought the car in March 2018, and it's changed a few times since then in terms of usage as it was originally my only car, replacing a Z4 3.0i. It was then a second car when I bought a MR2 Roadster, but that only last 6...
Managed to get the correct part, fortunately after a poor response email (basically implying the part sent was correct, even though i sent pictures to prove it was wrong), I got a phone call from the company, and they were very helpful. And because we're both in Nottingham, they had the part...
Wife has a Pixel 5. I'd originally bought her a Oneplus Nord, but she didn't like a few minor things to do with the OS system and how it did things compared to her P30. So sent it back and she ordered the Pixel 5 instead. She seems much happier with it to be honest.
Still waiting on the...
Ordered from eBay last week when they had an offer on. I ordered from the seller with the quickest delivery, as wanted it for this weekend.

Cheers guys for confirming. I know designs can sometimes change, and advert pictures aren't always of the actual item.
Weird that the part number is correct though.
So I attempted to change the gearbox mount this morning, with a vibra technics mount.
It seemed large when I received it. But didn't think it'd be an issue and it didn't register that it was different to the picture advertised.
Anyway, it doesn't physically fit. Can anyone confirm I've...
I've had a magnaflow fitted to my 182 decat pipe earlier this year. Passed the not fine in September. The year before the same tester said it only scrapped a pass with the original cat in place.
They will sell it separate, as i enquired about it a while ago. I think it's like £225 extra if you buy the exhaust system. But they wanted something like £350 for just the CAT (don't quote me on that price though it was a year ago i asked). But as my system is 2.25 sleeved, it wouldn't have...
The only car I've ever sold using this type of platform was too Evans Halshaw. It was a Ford C-Max 1.6 ecoboost on 2011. Think they gave me £4300 for it. There wasn't many made with this engine, so of the handfull on autotrader at the time of similar age and mileage. it was actually a good...
Easy solution: Mount TV to wall using a moveable bracket. When you need to get into that door, you'll be able to move the TV across out the way. Now you can upgrade to a 65+" TV without any problems.
The results for GrpN and 197 cams always looks pretty good, when looking at the before lines and gains etc. But at the same time i've seen plenty of Clio's running 185bhp and 165ftlb on standard timing and cams from EFI with the usual breathing mods, ie exhaust, induction, decat.
I understand...
Pretty sure i sold the owner of that car the Exhaust that's fitted to it about 6 months ago, i noticed it was up for sale on Facebook earlier. He's spent quite a bit of time and money on the car over the last 8-9 months by the sounds of it. So I'd assume that's going to be a good buy to be...
I've got the OnePlus Nord also, it was a great upgrade from my Note 8. I can't really fault it to be honest, and when comparing it to other phones from Samsung, etc with similar specs it's amazingly cheap. The only thing that put me off was the lack of headphone jack really. But I'm used to that...
I did this on my MR2 Roadster. Gained me a couple of inchers maybe, but made the seat much less comfortable. I needed the room to fit in the car better, but as I removed so much material from the bottom, the rear of the seats shape didn't work to well with my back causing the discomfort.
Never...
I've put them on my wife's Golf, we had PS4's on her previous car, but the goodyears were quite a bit cheaper, so opted for them instead when we changed her car.
Whilst the car isn't driven hard, I do throw it around a little when on my own in it, and I'd say the performance is very similar...
Passed emissions last Friday actually, failed on a brake pipe. I meant to ask about the emissions actually, as it was close the previous year with the original cat installed. This year there was no comment though, so assume it's working properly at least.
Sounds better than when the normal cat...
@andy_coops
Pretty sure it's VBO looking at the reg. If so I've owned this car twice, and sold it too @JayA
I also bought it from a member on here who had it a while, and sold it to buy a RS250.
Link to the first time I sold it:

I'm 6'3", and wouldn't entertain owning another 172/182 with standard seats.
The least you'll want is a set of recaros with Jon foz low mounts. I believe these are about 40mm lower than the standard seat, depending on what type of recaro seat you opt for.
I'm using recaros from an Evo 8 (I...
Perhaps. I'd not considered it to be honest. However, I'm not that keen on a curved screen, it still doesn't have a 3.5mm jack, it's almost 1 year old, so likely only to get updates for another year. And is almost 50% more money.
I had been eyeing up the 8 prior to lockdown, but don't think the...
Ordered the OnePlus Nord today to replace my 2.5+ year old Note 8.
It's not perfect, but at £379 it should be a decent replacement for my aging Note 8.
I was a little concerned about the camera ability initially, but I think from the reviews it seems pretty solid using the main lens, wide angle...
That's interesting to know.
I'll probably hold out buying a bigger battery until i expand my Ryobi tool collection, currently at 1No. haha
Like i said it's not been a major deal for me up to know, even just using a breaker bar to start it moving then wiping the bolt out with the gun saves...
Provided the wheel nut/bolts haven't been tightened by an ape it's perfectly fine for a wheel change. I think the only bolt I've had issues with so far has been the wheel hub bolt, but that was probably tighter than the required torque also. For the money I've been pretty happy with mine, makes...
Definitely find somewhere where you can sit in them prior to ordering, otherwise you could be wasting your money.
For bases look into Jon Foz X-low bases unless your very short. The omp option sits about 3 inches higher and they don't sit level without lots of messing around.
Standard belts...
I bought a magnaflow 200 cell cat of ebay for £73, and a milltek decat pipe for £35 (20% discounted at the time). @dann2707 has offered to cut these up and weld them for me. I just need to pull my finger out and arrange to drop them off.
As my system is only 2.25 inch i needed a reducer too...
