    172 Problem with handling

    It is a normal car. It's a Clio... Have you/ Can you drive it ? Tyres .. check all four pressures firstly. What tyres are on there ? "Taking a bend at 50/60" .. is this bend a hairpin, or a 2 mile motorway curve ? Shocks worth looking at as above.. any signs of leaking fluid on the rears ...

    Have I bought the right Car?! :|

    Who checked the car over ? Did you take it to a specialist ? Defo sounds like rear end shock issues. Tracking will be a waste of money right now IMO.

    Do loooooots of homework first. I've not invested in a polisher as TBQFH I'm aware how easily it can go bottoms up and the paint's on fire. HAHA !

    Stalling on full lock at idle

    .. Have you replaced the switch dude ? Surely that's the cheapest option to start with, assuming your fluid is all present and correct?

    Tutorial - Fixing White Balance

    It's more that you're starting (post processing) with a blank canvas (of sorts!) of what you shot. There's no compression, and any adjustments are reversible such as WB etc.

    Have I bought the right Car?! :|

    So what tyres are on there ?! They're the only thing between the car and the tarmac.... Tyres are one thing never to buy cheap IMO. My OH had granite ditchfinders on the back end of her 182 and it would step out in the dry without warning - in the wet it was lethal. Rear shocks are prone to...

    What tyres are on there ? Suspension all OK ?! Hunting cambers sounds like something's not tracking correctly. Does it feel sketchy in the dry ?
