    Protective Film

    Where is the best place to get some protective film, to go on the rear arches to stop stone chips. My rear arches have quite a few stone chips already and with black paint is really stands out, so I don't want it getting worse.

    Which Pads? - 172

    I need to change my front discs and pads soon. So i'm going to get the HC Discs from GSF, but i'm sure about pads. I don't want to spend loads and I don't do track days; DS2500 are no good and I don't like EBC Greenstuff. Any other options? Or i'll just get stock again.

    Rumbling noise turning left

    I just had a new gearbox, clutch and a driveshaft fitted at Renault. But since I got it back, when turning left around 2k - 3k rpm. I get a rumbling noise and it gets worse with the lower the gear (In second & first gear the dashboard & steering wheel vibrates). It definitely didn't do it...

    Gearbox clunking??

    Sometimes when changing gear, especially in 3rd. On the way back up on the clutch, I get a clunk. I was thinking it is a gearbox mount, but I had the top mount under the battery tray changed earlier on in the year. So I guess the dogbone mount should be next. Could be anything else?

    Car pulling to the right under acceleration.

    It may just be because my tyres from the rear are now on the front and worn, but the car pulls to the right when accelerating in high gears. The car drives straight, but when you put your foot down on the motorway in 4th or 5th the car pulls to the right. The tracking has been checked and...

    Battery??

    I noticed my green light has gone out on the battery and the car keeps resetting the trip computer when starting. So I've been quoted £49.95 from a local battery dealer, anyone know any good websites where I may get one cheaper?
