well it was defently a good insite to wat questions i had, i just wondered if this could be a sticky so people check here first instead of asking the same questions
Right guys my birthdays coming up and i think its about time to get some machine polishing kit together...
iv put together a list which i hope will work out well bang for buck...
got roughly about 200 quid to play with so this is what iv got proposed all from i4Detailing
Silverline...
This is probly well known to the major detailers, but for for novice users for things like claying and machine polishing i think this sites write ups can help greatly, and also saves people asking the same questions
The site itself is polishedbliss.co.uk and it contains the following guides...
more crap! i hate all this wonder product stuff " you may never polish your car again!" its all crap even dipping the whole car in teflon you would still need some sort of polish or maintinace to keep it looking clean and shiny... its all money down the drain
had one roll up the bonnet and hit the A piller once, couldnt stop laughing all the way home, the stupid pigeon tryed to fly away in the direct i was driving.
bird 10mph + clio 50mph = 1 nil clio
the chepo simoz stuff shifts crap well but use it too much it dulls the wheels shine, or if ya like me and have just refirbed it reacts with the lacquer!!

anyone heard of this company, dose anyone really belive their satments of 200+ bhp on just cams and map?
how long is it ment to with stand the weather? and also can it be waxed etc jsut like normal carbon? could you laquer it later if you wanted it shiny?, how much di it set you back?
just cos its new, dont mean its working, always worth getting it tested, failing that have you got any lights that are constantly on like interior light or somthing,
the alarm on these things is very sinsitive to voltage diffrences, i used to have an 6 led 501 bulb in my cabin light but i found...
sounds like your battery isnt holding a charge, i would test a new battery on it, or take it to somewhere where they will test your battery for nothing, takes 2sec
wasted plugs can course loads of problems, it takes 10min to check so its worth just a look to rule it out, also might want to check that there are no leaks on any of the vac pipes, if the accustic valve has been removed but the small vac tube hasnt been sealed off it can course running problems...
what fuel are you running, i found running on normal 95ron makes it do what you say above,
since switching to tesco 99ron (98 reconmended) all that has gone away and it runs like a dream,
if you arnt already try running a few tanks of 99
if that fails try changing your spark plugs
its...
heavy modification to get it to take to non RS wings, its a sooooooo much easyer and 100000000000 times better looking if you just get the wings, there is a guide somewhere where a guy did manage it but it took ages
im so glad i didnt send my part back two weeks ago, i knew i would be driving around for weeks without a trim, i would like some reasurance that the parts are waiting before i would think about sending out, anyone else sent out yet?
ouch, defently a different spec then with it being an import, in theroy all the wiring should still be there, so all you would need is the sensor and the windscreen,
in theroy, in practice i could be very wrong
it might be worth going to renault and asking them to pull up your car via your chasse number, they should be able to give you the full spec of your car, i.e what type of extras and what level of trim you got...
i did it with mine when i first got it when i was running a background check on the...
im pritty sure they are different as they take a diffrent bulb compaired to the rest of the non sport range, i recently got new bulbs for my fogs, and they turned out to be for the non sport models which didnt fit, so had to buy another set making sure they included the correct holder etc, i got...
i remember being told something like it was illegal to run wider tyres on the front, by a garage once when i was getting my front tyres changed from 195 to 205 kumos on a renew.
ended up having to swop them with the ones on the back
