    ECU Re-tune mod

    it says it increases fuel to the engine yet it still gives better fuel consumption ? hmm More Fuel More MPG, sounds like when you go to the pumps and put 30 quid in you got wife as far as when you put 15 in

    Should I buy a 197?

    If you actually consider £1800 to be a sensible price for insurance then yes get one, will be much more of an exciting drive than the corsa, but personally I don't understand how people could justify that much on insurance and think its reasonable

    Any Ideas on this tapping noise?

    Well i took the car to renault, and they changed the alternator under warranty, so the whining noise has stopped and the ticking noise they said its the injectors and there is nothing to worry about unless the noise changes or gets louder

    how do you attach a front splitter?

    Not the best few pics but, i found it easiest to take off the bumper, line the splitter up (start in the middle) tape it into place, i didn't bother with pilot holes the plastic seems very soft and used about 20 self tappers to hold it in place You should have a little overlap at each end like...

    RS192 Exhaust Cat to middle section leaking.

    I have a Yozza, and i think mine isn't sealed properly to the cat as it sounds like a whooshing/suction sound when i get to 3k rpm that comes from underneath the car, guessing it might need some better sealant

    iPod docking stations / speakers

    Bose doesn't give a true sound, ask any high end audio store and they will steer you away, you would be better to get a micro hifi than a dock, such as one of these mini hifi systems. but if you want something compact and all in one the B&W Zeppelin, without a doubt (i'm saying this and I have a...

    Looking at a 182 tonight - any advice?

    You need to budget around £500 for the belts to be changed as its a big job on these. just the usual checks such as oil level, tyre wear should be even, engine making no tapping noises.

    Wax not lasting very long

    super resin is a great product, will help with scratches and swirls, it will also give the paint a nice shine, but a layer of either a sealant such as Auto Glym Extra Gloss Protection, or a wax based product like Auto Glym hi def wax, will finish it off and help with the longevity of the shine.

    New 12" Alpine type X or DB Audio T Rex?? plus other audio.

    I have a Type X 10" running from a Jl Audio G-Max 1200 mono block , gives really nice punchy bass, doesn't hit the low that i want, but I'm running it in a very small box, so that might make the difference. Not heard of the T-rex, but would recommend a type x to anyone.

    Went to renault and got a pair of rear shocks for £96, took off the back right which seemed to be having issues and it was like a pogo stick, when i compressed it, it sprung back just as quick, so must have been totally drained of oil, since changing both the shocks, what a difference they have...

    Tail Happy 182

    Driving along today, dad was following in the car behind and said the back left wheel was kind of bouncing when the car went over the slightest bump, so took the rear left shock off and it doesn't seem to act like a damper, it act more like a sort of pogo stick, you push down on it and it pushes...
