You aren't. Your speed test proves 100+mb is making it to your device.

Only any good if you know the username and password to the router, anyone with sense would have changed that in a student house.

Well that sounds more like the device you are using is at fault then. If you can get a 119mb/s on a speed test, that shows you are getting a decent connection. If stuff is taking an age to open/run then you have another issue. What are you using? A laptop, tablet, phone?

So, i'm in need of some cloud storage, mainly to back up important docs, photos, wedding pics and videos etc. Would be good for something multi platform, Windows PC and iPhones mainly. 1TB should cover it, but happy to have more. I was going to put a couple of 2TB HDD in my current PC in...

Figured out what the grinding noise was from the rear! Oops!! lol Managed to fit my new rear Koni STR.T shocks whilst changing them though!

This when I joined And now this

No need to be changing more than once a year or every 12k unless it's not a road car or highly modified. That oil is OE oil, so completely fine to use at those intervals.

Yes, there are better oils. But the real question is - do you need them? for a daily road car, no, for a track car, probably not, for a race car then probably yes. I've gone from using £15 a litre Castrol Edge Professional in my Volvo to £5 a litre GSF car parts oil (bought a 20l drum). Even...

Hub nut would be worth doing, leave the washer and I don't know what the retaining screw is, but it's unlikely to be needed.

Took the wife, daughter and in-laws for a walk along Curbar Edge last weekend. Could see for miles! Curbar edge by Chris Maskrey, on Flickr

As above, they are just stuck to the glass. You can pull the old one off, then clean up the excess/residue. This is the important bit - it must be fully clean otherwise the new ones won't stick. The new seals just stick into place along the edge of the glass. No glass removal is needed.

Good luck is all I can say.

And decent wrap will cost you near enough a respray cost - unless you are planning on one of these places that will do it for £300? If so, don't expect a great finish

Ahh yes, the good old sprint booster "fitted a sprint booster, car feels much faster" well yes, that's bcause you now get full trottle at 50% pedal travel. Take off the sprint booster and mash your foot to the floor and you'll get the same experience!

Yep, too much scaremongering about timing belt changes on here! It really isn't a complicated job with the right tools. That's the important bit - the right Renault tools. If you don't use the tools or buy cheap ones and the timing will be out.

Have you got the full set of timing tools?

cheeky plug! lol

It's quite a few pages, so I will scan it and upload to somewhere and put the link up.

It'll be the same as the 197/200 I'd have thought, basically the same engine bar the blower. I have a printed/laminated copy of the official Renault guide at home that I can post to you if you struggle. Actually it would be easier to just scan and email it! I'll come back later, if you haven't...

I think you might have miss understood the 'friendly' bit. I'd imagine he needs an MOT station that will turn a blind eye to a decat or similar....?

No local members that can lend a hand? I'm a bit too far away myself otherwise i'd have offered.

It's only £900 and you are worrying about the cambelt history! it's almost disposable at that sort of price. Don't take this the wrong way, but If £900 is a lot of money to you, then I would advise you to buy something else. The RenaultSport cars aren't the cheapest of cars to run and if you...

That wood effect interior stuff is awful (sorry!) and please don't lower it 60mm. Have you checked with your insurance what effect it will have if you do decide to ruin the handling? Why not keep it standard, build up some no claims then buy a better/nicer car instead of runing this one?

Don't worry too much about the cambelt being done at a specialist. Worse case scenario is you buy it and have the timing checked by one of the specialists and corrected if needed. Also, the dephaser only needs doing if it's making a noise. It may well be fine and won't need changing for years to...

Come join my Lolvo club if you want to waft at speed for not a lot of money!

Been doing any work on it? Or did it just start doing this out of the blue?

Look in the manual, or go into Halfords/on the website. Most auto spares places will tell you as well as online. Any why do you have a poll with no options!?

Just so you know, you don't need insurance to buy the tax anymore, just a valid MOT. Chris

If oil has made it's way into the coolant, doesn't that point to head gasket failure? Not sure how a ring would let oil into the water....? I'd be tempted to pull the head off (if you have the knowledge) to identify the real problem, could turn out to be an easy/cheap fix......
