    Normal ride height, distance between tyre and arch?

    Yeah not sure it's worth bothering. Might be better just trying for a refund, but I'm guessing they aren't going to want to do that happily!

    Normal ride height, distance between tyre and arch?

    Dunno, but that's the 2nd spring they have put on the ns, first time might have been wrong one supplied, but second time? Reckon I should ask for a refund or third time lucky?

    Normal ride height, distance between tyre and arch?

    Ok here is the ns gap, looks way, way big to me. Then picture of the ns spring which looks totally diff to the os one. os one is much tighter coiled and ride height on that side isn't anywhere near as bad. Any thoughts?!

    Normal ride height, distance between tyre and arch?

    Think I've spotted the problem. Spring on one side is completely different to the other! Pictures coming.

    Normal ride height, distance between tyre and arch?

    Hi, it doesn't seem to have gotten any better and the ns is about an inch higher than the os. I took it back yesterday and they agreed it wasn't right, so were swapping the ns spring today. Just picked it back up after being told that it's now level and its still miles higher up on the ns, not...

    Normal ride height, distance between tyre and arch?

    Heyup, had some new front springs on today as one had snapped. Thought about getting prolines, but worked out a bit more I couldn't do with insurance hassles and the roads round here crap, bad enough ride already. Thing is it now looks really high at the front! Looks really odd. Is it likely to...

    Griffin i-Trip

    I got the iTrip Auto and it is crap. I don;t use it as it is too annoying having to retune it every few miles. They do have a new versionw ith some smart tune on it, ut the quality is bobbins even when no interference. I use CDs instead, but am looking to get a new header with either a mini...

    Climate Control Weirdness

    No idea on part number - I heard they were 130 quid from Renault so got one used instead. I called Just Renault and they knew what I wanted, came next day. I think its just called a heater resistor pack or rheostat.

    Climate Control Weirdness

    Its under the drivers side scuttle panel. In situ it just has a black connector exposed but when you undo it the lower bit is a long metal heat sink. I oredred one first then knew what I was looking for, but you can't miss it really. Would recommend a wiper arm puller as mine were on really...

    Climate Control Weirdness

    Driveshaft Fitting Rough Price?

    Hi there, my car failed MOT today on a driveshaft boot split, they are recommending getting a new drive shaft as said it might be worn. What would a typical price be for a replacement and fitting? Ta, Andy

    BeThere Vs BT Broadband

    Thats what I thought in my post above - FTC and then VDSL as mentioned my mate is a network designer at BT labs in Martlesham / Ipswich. Do you work for Lucent as I heard they would be doing the kit in the cabs?

    BeThere Vs BT Broadband

    What sort of time frame are we looking at for a city like Sheffield - I live bang in the city so I'm hoping we might get it quite early on. Am I right in thinking it will be fibre to the curb then VDSL to home?

    BeThere Vs BT Broadband

    I agree most ISPs will use BTs network products such as data stream / IP stream, but some will use other back haul providers like 186K. My mate works for BT too at the labs in Martlesham, he was a designer of 21CN, BT Vision and no idea what the next project he is working on, its all hush hush...

    BeThere Vs BT Broadband

    Are you on DSL Max at the moment i.e. 8 meg as that sync is really low and ADSL2+ degradation is worse that ADSL on longer lines so you could get worse speeds. I'm on be, they are excellent, uTorrent is showing almost 2TB (up and down) since Jan and not heard a peep from them!

    cat d 182?

    I'd say the clio and 6.5k would be fair swap.
  24. funklenut

    cat d 182?

    6K, that sounds way over priced even for a non crashed one. I'm expecting to get no more than 3K for my 172 (52) with 33K on it.

    Buying a macbook on finance, advice.

    Buy yourself a regular laptop and use iDeneb or Kalyway. I have a Dell D830 dual booting between OSX and Windows. I bought my laptop last year and its identical spec to my mates Macbook Pro apart from it looks like it cost half the price (it did!)

    Wiper Arms

    Thanks for the info, I'll take the scuttle and mechanism back off and try and find the peg. Cheers.

    Wiper Arms

    I've tried about 5 positions higher and lower and still taps the screen though! Has anyone got a close up of their resting positions and I'll use that as a guide? If that don't work it means I've bolted the motor and mechanism back in wrong. Arse, thought it went way too easy!
