be careful now with the autolock function, if you unlock the car and only open the boot, do not leave your keys on the parcel shelf.
if you do and close the boot the car will of autolocked on a timeout and you'll be stuck.........not that its happened to me................ :o
I may try the thin metal shims, but tbh its not when they're hot, its all the time
no leaky nipples (ahem) and no visible fluid loss anywhere in the system, all joints look clean on abs unit and under the car etc.
fluid has been changed on schedule with stamps etc to prove by mick @ diamond I...
Tried to do a search but cant really come up with an answer, and I have a feeling that's because its going to be one of those hard to chase could be anything faults
however, the 182 brakes just don't feel very good, little bite to them, the car still stops still but they just don't 'feel' as...
I liked my janspeed one, that never sat right but was slightly raspier than the RS192. but both are nice a quiet
the yozza was a truly lovely bit of kit, sounded absolutely brilliant and beautifully made, but it was just a little too loud for me as the cars a daily runabout.
another vote for...
as above, you would have to but the unit (either new with licence, or second hand then buy a licence from fastchips) and then buy both maps as well. or the second hand unit may come with the map/maps you need
car didn't slip on the dyno did it, if you get wheelspin it can throw the numbers all over the place. and tbh I'd take it with a pinch of salt, if in the real world car feels good then its probably fine and just a duff result on that day. you can usually tell if the timings out when you drive it...
sorry, yes without the spacers standard bolts will be fine, or should be, obviously make sure you get them on with a good few turns before they pull up tight ;)
great cars, mate of mine had one exactly same as that with a scorpion stainless on it, everything else standard. he had to have the drivers seat stitched up and dreaded rust took hold of the rear arches, but for the cash it was an epic-mobile :)
Well, hit the benchmark last night on way home from work
The cars just clocked 118k miles and after speaking to Andy @makavelli who had the map put on, it was done around the 18k mark many moons ago
as such, Paul @RSTuning good job on the map, 100k and the engines running sweet as a nut...
usually about 6k for oil and filter service, but plugs and air filters etc are on a different schedule so I'd do them if they haven't been done for piece of mind
mk 1 clio wheels are et37 odd, they will bolt straight on and sit in the arches much better than your standard rims, so basically everyones a winner :)
which did you go for as well, the older turbines or the bubble shaped vegas?
afaik the oil control will have a larger tolerance as all it does is scrape the bore and as it rotates with each stroke it clears 99% of the area so no worries. the compression rings have a set gap as they seal the bore for the power stroke so no wiggle room
