    Expansion tank cleaning

    Buying a new tank is the quickest and best way to resolve this issue, but with older cars this is not always possible. There's a load of different guides and info online, people recommend a range of approaches. I'd just bought a new tank, which left me with a dirty one to play around with...

    Landsail Trackday tyres

    Has anyone heard anything about Landsail's track tyre, the AK01? https://www.landsailmotorsport.com/ I assume they've seen the success Nankang had with the NS-2R and AR-1, they fancy a piece of the action. Available as a 195/50 R16, which is rather interesting.

    Acid rust removal

    Saw this on TikTok, thought it was worth a shot. Have tried Vinegar/Coke method before but it was slow and results weren't exactly amazing. This uses toilet cleaner, specifically Harpic (it's 10% Hydrochloric acid) as bleach based won't work. Obviously I wouldn't try this with anything coated...

    Free Golf (some strings attached)

    You'll either get a free car, or brutally murdered. Either way, it's a fun trip. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/284491533144?hash=item423d044b58:g:zhgAAOSw3KFha1aL

    Loot boxes

    They've been accused of introducing young people to gambling and even banned in some countries already. Seems now things are turning against them here. If they need regulation by the gambling commission they're essentially banned from games. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-56614281

    Cambelt advice

    Not a Clio engine, but open to opinions. Popped the belt cover to see what it looks like. Belt seems a little shiny but not obviously cracked or damaged. Looking at the teeth on the inside of it they belt it might be a Kevlar item maybe? Whats everyone think?

Throughout my time of doing that I've...

    Buying an EU phone

    I'm thinking of buying the Xiaomi Mi 9, it's been released globally already but only came out here this week. For some reason it's more expensive in this country, and getting an EU model saves a few quid. Would there be any issues with an EU phone, like with software updates and such? Do you...

    5G rollout

    5G is rolling out this year, promising to be the be all and end all with smartphones. Is this changing the way anyone is taking out contracts or buying phones now? I had thought about getting the new Mi 9 when it comes out soon, but if it's not 5G compatible I'm not sure as I'd look to keep...

    Mk1 Valver Project

    Nothing to do with me, popped up on Facebook and looked like it might be of interest as it's only £1500. That Renault 5 Turbo engine has gottta be worth at least a grand or two on it's own

    Lambda Wires

    I have broken wires on my post-cat lambda plug, the wires are broken off clean with the plug - it's the part on the car obviously, not the sensor. I need a lambda pigtail to wire in as a repair, but can't find one. I think it's a type 67 plug?? Does anyone know someone online selling them???

    Galaxy S9

    The iphone gets it's yearly trolling, so it's only fair Samsung's latest offering is discussed. To be fair it's a f**king lazy effort, compared to the S8; Screen: same Storage: same Ram: same CPU: slightly faster It does retain a headphone jack and the Micro SD capacity has been increased to...

    172/182 Headlights

    The lenses on my 182 headlights are shot, used the 3M kit which made an improvement but it soon went hazy again, looking closely the plastic lenses are quite badly damaged. I'm planning on replacing the lenses with a set of new ones, Ren Parts sell some cheap 172 headlights (black surround)...

    I un-installed flash some time ago, but my laptop still shows flash player as being active? How do I remove this f**king crap? I'm using windows 10, I can't find anything in the usual program un-install list.

    AC Pressure Switch?

    My AC isn't working, I slapped a code reader on it and had a fault for AC pressure switch. Is this the right part? (Grey plug in the middle) The copper wires were exposed for about 10mm out of the back of the plug which was quite alarming, I slapped some tape on as a temp measure.

    Which Lambda is right??

    I need to replace the pre-cat lambda on my 182, but there are two options? Is it this one? http://www.carparts4less.co.uk/cp4l/c/Renault_Clio_2.0_2004/p/car-parts/car-body-parts-and-car-exhaust/exhausts/lambda-sensor/?710745577&1&0138a4ed9cf756881a0aba8dc42b5d5a3c8f67ba&000210 or this weird...

    Knock Knock

    My 182 (04 plate on 86K) has a knock coming from the rear, whenever you go over a big bump or a speedhump, kinda sounds like something hitting the floor maybe? I've taken the parcel shelf out to make sure it wasn't that, nothing else on the interior feels loose. I'm going to have a look at the...
