I'm sure there was a thread on this last year, cant find it though.
Is anyone using this? Does it work well on the clio? And how long do the pads tend to last?
Thinking of buying the G220 kit on i4detailing, it looks exactly like what I'm looking for as the Trophy has a fair few swirls I'd...
I wonder if they include the full aux kit for £399, doubt it.
I might take them up on the plugs, the interim service price is not very cheap imo. The only reason I might pay for the interim is to keep the FRSH
Re: Sir_Dave's Trophy. The 182 on (nearly) 182k ...
Same as I went for, these should go more than stiff enough, couldn't warrant the double price pretty much for MF ones.
Got them on last night but its not really the weather to be testing them out!
Very jealous! Trophys dont have electric.
They aren't from a Trophy as they are all cloth, and different pattern. Wonder what they are from, or if they are just bought by a previous owner.
Cheers for that, around £100 for the right one, have to enquire for the alternative caliper so have sent one it.
Really hope it is that price! If not there is a new genuine one on ebay for £90
I, erm, fit the pads ;)
The same calipers hand brake mechanism doesn't work though (foot brake works fine), so think its new caliper time, where's best to get them?
I'm off to see my car in about half an hour or so, any ideas?
I'm thinking I might just take a bit off the pads and then next time I'll get new calipers, that's if it doesn't wind in tonight.
Just rang my uncle, as the cars at his.
He says its moving lovely, just wont go in the last few mm. The pads are sat in the groove too, and are perfectly straight.
Not sure what to do at all now, I'm not wanting to buy new calipers, could sand down the pads :o
Have undone the cap.
It goes in fine so far, then wont go in that last bit.
The generic tool my uncle has doesn't fit so had to resort to the screwdriver method.
As title, rear piston still needs another few mm to go in to get the pads sitting right. Drivers side went fine but passenger side has done this.
Any advice on how we could get it in? It only needs one more full turn but its stopping as if its got to its end.
I'm confused between finance and debt, so its more that £3.5k you owe?
I'm with Daniel if you plan to keep a 1*2, or if you really need the money then sell everything and run something really cheap (or nothing if you have the van) until you can afford to buy again.
