Sorry McBunny was that a question or a statement? The TV does 24p cinema but not 100hz. Though I've not seen any issues with blur really. 100hz doesn't start until W series apparently.

I bought one a few weeks ago. Traded in a black and white tv I won for a quid in a raffle, they gave me £100 off. I really like it. Good picture quality, the upscaling really suprised me. The panel is excellent 2 Scart inputs, 3 HDMI and Pictures etc off USB. I'd recommend it, though I...

According to an email from MS about this there is an upgrade path to windows 7 from Vista but not from XP. So you'd be best putting vista on it. Dan

That would be nice Si. Though the gearbox will probably DIE. I'll be watching your threads on Twingooc mate! Dan

I have a Twingo GT (bought due to stupid distance to work, sold my 182 for it). I get 40+mpg all day long in it it great in that respect. I have driven the Clio 1.2T (I had one for three weeks over Novemebr while my car was in the garage) and mine. For motorways and overtaking I thought that...

Good stuff about the Renault assistance, I cant believe you weren't told. You don't have to have had the services at a Renault garage as long as the parts are genuine or approved, you will need the stamps though. Dan

Do you not have a mechanic mate who can 'stamp' your service book for you? It doesn't have have been serviced at a Renault dealer to be under warranty but you must prove it's been done.... By the way you do know your car comes with three years road side anyway don't you? You should have a...

It doesn't have the black plastic covers on the grill either so could have had the bumper resprayed or replaced. Check behind it as it could have been a case of 'oh while your putting the bumper on can you just colour code the grill'. Just my 5 pence. Dan

If the steering is clicking on full lock its the CV joint..... Though it sounds like a loose top mount or something.... Dan

Anyone know the person who bought my old motor in the end?

Its great actually. I have less than halved the fuel I use. Though the gearings a bit weird and I'm not 100% on the beigy interior plastics :) Im wondering though, as its based ont he old Clio floor pan (Mk2) if I can put 172 suspension stuff on it.... Dan

You'd hope so! Judging by the muppets I had to deal with it wouldn't surprise me. Dan

Most people start with Silver Vision bulbs and move on to.... Carbon Splitter Tints Lower it? Springs or full coil overs. A good stainless always looks and sounds good too... What do you want to do? Whats are the details? Colour, age etc? Dan

Just got a new Twingo GT. Traded this in: http://www.lookers.co.uk/cars/used/RENAULT/CLIO/137930 Now I know for a fact that it had done over 36k as this was one of the reasons I sold it...so I hope they have just got the miles wrong and not clocked it?? Dan

I have some Genuine Renault locking nuts you can have for £15...no idea what the postage would be though as they are heavy. Dan

Bret_1990: It kind of sounds like an atm dump valve....hisses when you change gear. Nothing to post sound clips of! Yes the DV26 is the twin piston jobbie. Its coming off tonight as I think, like you said, its leaking boost...its intermittent on the acceleration.... Dan

Cheers xzibit, I'll look into that. What do you guys think is a safe amount of boost through these engines stock? I'm aware that the comp ratio is 9.5:1 so I don't want to go popping it. Has anyone seen anything on the t'interweb about them? I've seen a couple of foreign chip tuning sites...

I have a dv26 on my Punto GT too (before I got sick of it). Yeah, I think I need one better rated to the car. I know the car only runs low boost, Im hoping to change that..... It's chavy but I had to do it as I'd had the NA clio for so long I missed it :). Dan

That's what I figured. As long as its not closing when it shouldn't and backing the pressure up on the turbo (which its not) I'm pretty sure Im alright. Anyone else?

This is not a clio question through the car has the 1.2 tce. I have a new Twingo Gt. I have fitted a Bailey DV26 atm dump valve. Now on throttle it boosts and then releases as you'd expect, however on lower throttle, pootling about I am getting a resonation noise. I am assuming that there is...

CV Joint? Does it get louder when you turn corners? Check the gaiters on your drive shafts, that one hasn't split.

Yeah mines alright, not too boomy. It done a fair few miles with no issues. Sounds pretty good at higher revs. Im getting rid of mine very soon as I have a replacement in the garage (its been there since November...no time to fit it!), yours for £145.00....though the courier to essex may be a...

Is the extension on the Trophy only or could i get the warranty extended on my 182?...its three years old in July. Dan

This has been on ebay loads of times in the past few months. Its hideous. Its worth about £500....and thats with all the crap stripped off it. £3500? You are seriously joking.... Dan

Dico: Yeah, I know theres another RB in HC, I've seen it parked in the A50. There is also an inferno on the estate behind the shops. Goostrey has another RB too, driven by an old fella apparently (though that could be me...lol). I'll keep my eye out. makavelli: Im from Congleton...

Ryan, From the motorway, left up the hill past the arms houses, turn left at the chippy....down there. Currently knocking fking big holes in my house. Major structural stuff. Though currently in Goostrey until the works done. Dan

You may spot me floating around the Crewe/Sandbach area at the moment. Im off for a fortnight doing up my new house in Sandbach which means I need to buy shares in Crewe B&Q!

I bumped the wheels on the passenger side of mine. The Pre-tensioner went off and there was knowone in the seat. Has it took the pretensioner out too? That could explain the plastic bits. I had to get a new computer and tensioner. Cost something like £400 with labour...nightmare. Dan
