new rack on a 1.2 16V, i can do a recon one (i run one on my track car, its spot on) is about £130 from memory (don't quote me on that though, i might be off a bit) only takes about an hour to fit too, easy on the 1.2 16V's

cool i reckon my bus should crack 14.0, would be chuffed with a 13.9!

18.0 it did! what's the "one in front" do on the 1/4? would hate for a phs2 to out run you ;)

not really, look for oil on the belt, or jack the engine up and check for play in the pulley

^good deal! did the guy doing your bill use an abacus per chance? ;)

3hour job approx oil level ok? i can send you a refurbed one for £150+vat (exchange) 2year warranty too (a new one from renault is £230+vat IIRC and only has a 12month warranty!)

that'll do, whack it up!

i've heard he's back to full speed bishop bashing, car isn't finished yet no, gathering dust at my place

the car or his wanking arm?

speak to Henk @ fastchip or Paul at RST for unlocking

90-110mm IIRC

i'll have you know that's 300m from my workshop! Salford? do one!

^go see matt @ TDF in kimbolton, he'll sort you out!

seen that too, renault main dealer had installed his cams and whacked 2 seals behind the dephaser! i chuckled!

car had 17's on to be fair and i was driving on s**t roads for a bit, but even still these were hard! i sent the punter off and told him to come back after 1000miles, see if they bed in a bit, then i'll have a play with the setup

right got ya, thought you meant you clean it with it on the engine which would be like pissing in the wind! LOL

na i'll bet on dephaser seal (behind the pulley)

these were raceland mate, like concrete they were IMO!

how do you go about cleaning it? i mean without taking it off you'd struggle to clean the internals

it might shut it up, its cheaper to try that first anyway, rather than ripping it apart

lies, all 172/182's run V rated tyres!

V is the standard rating anyway!

on a standard engine too!

^try 160 at the wheels ;)

seen it once, you can buy some stuff (10mm IIRC) from pirtek that'll work, or i could send you a length

turns out i have a freak of an engine in my car! sweet :D

^yup £115 for the part, new cambelt kit, new seals, about 6hours labour

its impossible for it to fail completley, regular oil changes = happy engines and dephasers :) (ie every 6K IMO, oil is cheap enough, dephasers aren't!) try an oil change and engine flush/top end treatment first, that should shut it up

bought what?

renault birmingham told one of my punters his front brakes were 70% worn when they were less than 24hours old! (brown bear on here) i was seriously shocked by that one!
