Happened to Mark (rufstuff), he had to bleed his system again and found air in the system. He also did the braided hoses and new disks. His brakes disappeared completely at some stages.

To the right of the engine block. Look for where the water hose goes into the engine (right hand side of engine). The L bend bracket contains the thermostat. Hope that helps. The bend wil also have the tube for the Header take return attached to it.

The usual renault amount. Nothing amazing, but the oil does decrease, however i normally change the oil before it goes empty. So realistically i change oil every 7-9 Thousand. Engine does burn oil however, but i knew this anyway, both engines ive had has done this.

Does anyone know what the pressure should be within the 1.2l 8V Diet(D-Type) Engine?

D-Type. Petrol Engine. 1.2L 8V 60bhp. Yeh got 65 BHP at the RR two weeks ago . Engine setup is FULLY standard, nothing is changed. Im going to double check the readings tomorrow. Most likely the test was not done with the WOT as per said. What is the correct procedure on doing the...

Hello all, My D-Type engine has been compression tested by myself today. What should my readings be? I need to know before i start any work, as it isnt listed in the Haynes Manual and i cant find it anywhere. I am getting these readings: Gearbox end first Piston 1 - 40PSI / 3Bar Piston 2 -...

It does seem nice, anyone seen the car around? Previous driver seem ok driving it? Nothing like wheel spinning etc?

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/364436.htm What you think? Possible price i thought was a bit higher than per usual 172s. Does the exclusive gain this price however? Im kind of interested in this one at the moment.

How do you clean decals properly, example Andys car, its got a lot of decals on it, so how do you actually clean the car properly with the stickers in the way?

Guys, get yourselves along to a meet. Road trip next month! Check the Local Meets Section.

It sucks indeed Ive checked for leaks with the water compression test. No luck. Yes the residue from the exhaust is wet, suggesting the water going down into the manifold. None, checked and checked and checked. None at all.

Im sure its a sad sad week for you, driving around knowing its going to leave. Least you can have some fun before it goes.

Well update guys and gals. Bled the system for three hours last night, and it still had air in it, even drove it around and bled it again, still air in system. However now my heaters work great and the water pump seems to be working as the fan came on last night. Looking more like my head is...

Just like the Extra and Glaswegian then.

Yes temp gauge is from the 16V car, mine works a treat. Also, if you replace the Renault Section Name Part in the dials with just petrol and speedo with a Temp Gauge it works great too. Most likely to cost me a lot more for insurance. My quotes for 172/182 were averaging around £1500-£3000 for...

Im without a car now until Saturday, not so fun. Driving along the motorway, not gunning it, driving with the lady friend in the passenger seat, so was driving alright. Noticed my temp gauge just going up and up. Pulled over to the hard shoulder and opened bonnet, there was water everywhere. :(...

Excellent pictures there boys. I really like the work you have put into the car Rory.

Doh.

Got my Early Bird tickets last year. ClioSport.Net Meet?

Nobody knows until an incident happens. An insurance asessor will be pretty much looking for anything dodgy. For example, i doubt your father will drive a lowered car, Amp and Sub in the boot, aftermarket HeadUnit, different alloys and specific tyres, as his daily drive. The type of policy is...

Not illegal, UNLESS you are the main driver and keeper of the car, but told the insurance company your parents are that. Being a named driver, but driving all the time and keeping the car, is illegal, unless declared. Insurance companys really are tough on this now, and in most cases dont pay...

Passed you on the A725 gave you a indicator flash but you didnt know me im sure. LD52 A.. RemoteSupport.Net stickers over the car, so i knew it was Andy, well guessing by the email address. Seen it a few times now, looks great with the Windows Pearl on it. V6 looked lovely as a company...

Did i actually pass you? I have no idea where you were to be honest. By chance, did i have the sunglasses on and boping my head to the beats?

Dave, nice pictures. I see she is waving, so clearly she thinks your a nutjob mate. Been to that place to when i was at the Beach.

Move the domain name to another company where you have full control over it. 1&1 although a s**t company have great facilities. As does namecheap. Full MX record capabilities.

Hot is because of the voltage step down. Energy is lost as it is converted from electricity to heat. Normally HOT means it is working ok. Also - Dont have power plugged in all the time. USE the battery, otherwise you are degrading the battery life significantly.

Scrap all them ideas. Here is the daddy of Vundo Removal - http://www.atribune.org/content/section/4/30/ Tried and tested and its amazing. PS - Run in safe mode.

Was he "geenin it aww that"? Dave - I wish to see that car very soon please.

National Farmers Union - Cheap? Nah, keep jogging. Really isnt cheap, ask susanne about that. PS - Dad works for them, even with his discount my insurance was still 1000. No thanks. Quinn Direct - Avaliable to all. Muchos Cheapo.

All companies are these days. Its impossible to find an independant. Quinn Direct said to me - Yes you can have as many mods as you wish, dont touch the engine however. Sorted.
