Hi there. Unfortunatly ive now sold this car as i was having quite a lot of issues with it not starting and dreaded electrics. I will try and source out the messages from the guy who bought it from ebay though. It had definatly been abused (not by me) as it just seemed so tempermental all the...
I've got this box fitted on my 172 I've had issues with my immobiliser the past week or du and it not starting. Got recovered last night as it wouldn't go and I've been told this box is the culprit it's been put in to bypass the immobiliser and now it doesn't work can I just easily get this...
Immobiliser has stopped working again about 24hrs after it working. At a loss now any help would be greatful worried if i get the key done is going to just go again could it be something on the car knocking the sync out?? Please help :(
So I've got my car runninh again needed the key reprogramming as the immobiliser stopped syncing with the key and then I needed to pop my fuse back in as it come lose. Gave her a blast tonight and wow I've missed driving her!! Smiled all the way to the cinema to watch Fifty Shades haha
Right so key was sorted and reprogrammed got home and it tried to fire twice and cut out, looked at it today and a fuse had come lose on passenger side so sorted now and driving beautiful missed this car so much!!
I've enquired about getting it resynced/get it connected to the car again and most places quote around 120 call out spoke to someone else and he said 45 if I can get to him but i don't need to take the car only the key I thought this might be a bit odd but I don't know anything about cars did...
@bondbill recently had his gearbox replaced in his fiesta st and needed the clutch replacing at the same time, if i remember rightly the clio gearbox on ebay were going for around £200-£300 where as the st ones were near double that. cost around 300 in labour which included supply and fit of...
ill give that a go thanks.
been speaking to a couple of different places. got a quote off here for Renault replacing it to gauge a price really which ive been quoted 180-185
been quoted 170 at a mobile key replacement
been quoted 120-130 at others too
then i spoke to a different person who said...
My car started no issue first thing in the morning took it for a 2min drive to put fuel in went to start it again and wouldn't start. The little red light on my dash was flashing quick I've been advised this might be a issue with my key and my immobiliser. Just seeing if this sounds right and...
Anywhere in Wolverhampton do this? Just been quoted 140 plus vat to get the key done on mine which sounds steep to me if Renault is doing for less??
Unfortunately got the same issue
Yup! Need a new tyre on the back which was borderline legal on mot advisory notice it likes to slide round bends and round abouts and hit any uneven surface it feels like the rear is kicking out or sliding. Rather scary in the wet!
So I've kind of sorted 75% of the bouncing by checking the air in my tyres today turns out 3 out of 4 were below what they should be!
Next objective is lights and sort out my sliding rear end!
with regards to the lights im pretty sure ive got green mold growing on the inside.. rather then it just being on the outside like threads ive seen on here on restoring so might be a bigger job then anticipated.. sigh
either way can give the outside a good going over and see how i get on
I've no idea what springs they are they were on the car when we got it.. I think I might investigate it as I've been told might be the shocks which might need replacing which is causing the bounce need to take it to a garage really
It's on my list to do but will need to do suspension and replace my rear tyre first as I bounce about loads when driving and is very slidey in the wet and moderately in the dry to
Well there is myself and @bondbill note who both own clios rather recent mine is a flame red and his is a silver one plus were good friends with @B-shaw557 to who has a phase 1 edition
Ah must be another silver one knocking around as well as yourself then! I was helping to fit my grill on it this morning and saw you driving past and looks rather nice! Sounds good to!
Ah it might of been you as it sounded rather loud! It's dark so could well be a 182 sorry! Did your drive via Finchfield earlier to with myself (flame 172) and my partener (@bondbill silver 172 on here) were outside his house about 11.30am also fitting my new grill
