is yours a scenic II the one with the credit card type thing, if so im pretty sure i know the wheels you are talking about and i already have my eye on a set ;)

£93! over 25 quid cheaper than i payed! nice!

they arent too bad to do on the floor i did mine on the floor provided you have an idea of what you are doing you should be fine. can do non sports on the floor in 3hrs. as for it being heavy - try changing a clutch on a 3l capri with a cast iron bellhousing trying to lift that out on to your...

you want a step where it meets ideally - wont claim to understand all the flow dynamics etc but i have heard you never want the inlet and the ports a dead match

you may want to get a decent code reader/clip on it as im not too sure on renaults but on fords pending fault codes wont turn the mil light on only actuals, and the pendings arent stored in the code memory they are only stored in freeze frame data

Well the sub in the back of my car i have now decided is just a great big dead weight - which sildes all over the place on the country lanes even with 3 branches of halfords worth of velcro stuck to the thing. so im now looking at ditching the sub and keeping my quite expensive decent amp and...

i havnt seen one, hadnt even seen another white clio untill i went to france and the gf was keen to point out shed counted 15 one after the other before loosing interest and giving up count:boring: didn't see a dynamique over there though:D

you wouldnt loose drive it just wouldnt disengage. plus i dont know about older golfs but i know up untill mk3s use cables and the gearboxes are next to useless.

i'll pop up there - passionford meets are always good been meaning to find a clio meet!

listening to that i'd say its almost certainly the headgasket. air in the cooling system dosnt affect engine running at all (untill it gets hot and causes damage obviously) does it use coolant at all? water leaking in to the bores due to the system being pressurised for a while after it running...

yeah i just deleted my rear arch liners. while i had it on the ramp i found the source of a rattle ive had for a while which was the cat, noticed i had a shock leaking and that on the wheels i bought it must have been run with a split cv gaiter for a while as 2 were caked thick in cv grease on...

unfortunately they'd nick the wheels off a jumbo if it flew low enough. always park mine in veiw

they are the 195/45's toyo t1s. cant really go much smaller than that, they dont even go on the car with 205/55's

narm :lolup: yes it is ;)

thats the one - i work at chutch elm motors

cheers for the comments people as for the colour coding i had a go of it on photoshop - but couldn't make it look realistic enough to get an idea the only way i managed to do it was completely smooth over them which made it look like a van. so still not too sure, quite like the way it looks as...

lol, yeah cheers middo - suppose i should mention too i got them from cit-ren and they came 2 days earlier than they told me they would turn up, which is always a bonus

think they look quite nice myself, and definately more grip. for anyone wishing to fit these to the non sport models-the lagunas they come off use a 205 55 16 tyre which frankly are huge and are no good for the clios as on the front the tyre fouls the shock by quite alot. so you will need some...

they went on in the end - 205 55 16 tyres we so huge the fronts hit the shock - 195 45 16's go on a treat and fit perfect pics going up in media

anyone? info on offsets etc ? cheers

i have a feeling that may be the case. would look to know how the ones middo posted were made to fit

i bought a pattern one from ebay - 25 quid plus the vat. thought it was worth a punt, and it fits absolutely perfect (didint require modding)

right i've just had these. they came with 205 55 16's as i presume are standard fittment to the laguna they came from - problem being i've tried to fit them tonight and the rears they just about go on with no rear arch liners and fronts the tyres hit the shock. so - just bought some 195 45's...

airbag light on is not an mot failure - just an advisory.

as edde says, all the 1.2's do that - especially in this weather if not given a good run. not actually seen one without cream round the filler if you look at the dipstick though, no cream there;) no water in oil keep an eye on the coolant level too

exactly - i see what you are saying fred its a nice gesture and all the rest of it. but my boss certainly wouldnt keep me on if i were to go round doing jobs for free if they took less than book time.

replied to pm :cool:

just use standard discs and pads imo more than up to the job my discs were quite worrying slaughtered and pads were about papers width from the discs at 36k when i bought it.

and you went for that? as for the caliper - on a car that new if a bleed nipples f**cked they f*cked it simple as.

have they charged you diagnosis on top of that? fred surely you understand that you are in the trade arent you? although the map sensor its self takes 10secs to fit i would still charge half an hour labour if i got the job - to make it worth my while spending my times trying to diagnose the...
