Every one will be different I would imagine. As @NorthloopCup say's, he strips and replaces what's needed. That will depend on the gearbox being supplied.

Just the flexi's is usually fine as long as the manifold is checked for cracks. I can't see them wanting to stump up for a manifold, aren't they about £1k?

Take it back, tell them to fix it properly. They don't want to because it's a manifold off job to sort.

2014 Jag XK wheels I think he said, 20".

That's relying on the thickness of Primer/top coat being uniform across the car - which is unlikely.

Not too long at all then really, and well worth the effort! Can you recommend anything for alcantara? I need something to keep my steering wheel clean etc.

So much better mate. Take much time to do?

We used this for a collage of baby photos a year or so ago. You just import the photos and position them how you want them.

Anyone interested in a dyno day at Dynotech in Ripley again? We've been a few times and it's always been a laugh.

C63 like I've just done! Quick edit by Chris Maskrey, on Flickr You'll get a decent facelift for that money though.

Just looked, and yes the robbing b******s charge now! They didn't 6 months ago when I took mine out!

Not for the first box it's not. At least I'm not paying it. £35 a month for q silver (the 2tb box) a mini box and all channels inc sports and movies (With HD)

Why would you not be able to undo them at the side of the road? I'm fairly sure you'll be over tightening them if you are just using a wheel wrench, hence making it harder to undo next time. Torque them up to the proper amount (about 120nm?) and they will a) be safe and 2) come undone fairly...

Just upgrade to Sky Q, that's wireless and you don't pay for the use of the second box.

Only on the performance pack cars though isn't it? Well on the C63's it is anyway. Unless all the E63's got them?

It'll be the caliper, both of mine did it. Easy to check the cable, just unhook the end of it from the caliper and see if it moves.

Fair enough, I always had to be the same with my ex! Like I say, with the engine out and on a stand it should be simple enough. There is a guide on here somewhere that gives the procedure and torque settings. I'm sure someone will come along and link it.

Powder coat is only baked at about 200 degrees isn't it? Hardly going to do any damage to the wheels at that temperature. Imagine how hot they must get if you're on track etc? They're bolted straight to the discs that get to the point of glowing red hot - some of that heat must transfer to the...

If the lump is going to be out of the car then it will be much easier as its the access that makes it a difficult job tbh.

Also, how come you can't stretch to a set of tools but can drive a B7 RS4?

Have you ever changed a floating pulley setup before? If not, then I wouldn't attempt it to be honest. For the sake of an extra couple of hundred quid you get the peace of mind that it's done right. If you get it wrong then you'll either a) be down on power or b) you've ruin the engine. You...

All the Renault Sport models have VVT. The F4R engine is used in various cars without the VVT, but none of the Clio's.

What car do you have? if it's a 172/182 then yes you have VVT

Buy the set from Renault then sell it on again. You'll make most of the money back (it's what I did)

Not bad for an iPhone picture, the DoF feature works really well. Just saying Hi! by Chris Maskrey, on Flickr

Great pics, but I'd reduce the copyright logo a bit as it immediately draws your eye instead of the great photo.

Not quite - The early 197's (2006-2008) had the 5 year interval. All 200's have the 6 year interval though.
