My kangoo has started to misfire again when cold and looking at live data on clip today the pre cat lambda sensor looks a bit all over the shop, no eml or codes stored. Already swapped front to back so had my moneys worth ! Will order one off the link thats a great price?
Thats a decent slide hammer to be fair. The last one i made was basically a weight and threaded bar, i think ill make one the same next time i need one
Currently recomissioning this for Benj after a decent layup. 7 years since building/installing the engine last time how time flies.
Bodyshop let the engine and running gear get in a bit of a state and various hoses had perished, ign components knackered and poorly fitted thatcham alarm melted...
Show us your home made tools that work and cheap to make ?
Made a bead roller yesterday out of some mole grips, exhaust clamp and washer to swage some alloy boost hoses for a R5gtt im working on. Total cost £0
Works great miles better than anticipated. Excuse the s**t welding all i had is a...
Had a blast out in the Kangoo up to Darlington tonight to drop a gearbox off. On the way back the engine coughed mid roundabout which seemed strange but stayed running so did not think much of it. Pulled up in Tesco at Middlesbrough to discover the 30amp fuse for ecu in engine bay fusebox was...
Mesh is seperate on my pipercross insert mate i was like that from new..a bit pikey to be fair. It cant be sucked in as mesh seals top and bottom of the box
Thats a bad run of luck mate ? on the upside alloy bonnet is a worthy upgrade.
What happened to the pipercross? Foam started disintegrating ? Mrs 225 has had one on for many years by the looks of it, was fitted by previous owner. Looked great from the top - took it off last year and the end had...
Inner tie rods are definitely worth doing if not been replaced before. You can rebush the oem track control arms cheap and easy enough if you want to spend the time doing them.
Ps3s are far better than t1r, you wont be dissapointed. I had a set on my old turinis and handling was great in the wet & dry. The only downside i found was they fall to bits when used on track in dry weather.
The vibratechnics mounts are alright to be fair, no massive vibration on idle etc on mine. Quite compliant compared to solid mounts which i have ran on other cars.
New gearbox mount should sort it out though.
Gearbox mount probably knackered when you remove it. Mine used to move a bit with powerflex dog bone and new top mount. Gearbox mount was shot when removed.
Replaced both top mount and gearbox mount for vibratechnics. One of the best mods i have done to be fair
I wonder how the v6 espace airbox compares to the above?
I have tried a couple of different setups on mine - have also noted that low down torque feels better with stock ph2 box compared to v6 and ph1setup. Top end pull feels better with the latter though.
Had the tailpipe trim on the megane hydrodipped so chucked the steering wheel insert in at the same time to tidy it up as was roughly painted black before
Fitted with ebay Renaultsport sticker
Not bad for a daft £5 as already paid for the materials on the tailpipe trim.
Cleaned up and ready...
Its a doddle to do both, Support engine and remove/refit. Change the upper cambelt cover its easy to do. I have retapped one and used a longer bolt to get me away but not ideal.
