Swore at it whilst driving back from the garage where it failed its MOT

Just had my mot done and a broken rear coil spring was on the rather annoyingly long list of failures. The thing is i've only had the sportlines on for just under 4 years and they've probably only covered 10k miles, probably less. Car has never been tracked or anything. Surely there's a...

I'd bank on a knackered shock personally, I've had similar trouble in the past. Oh and if it is a shock dont take the cheap route and only replace one like i did, your opposite will go soon after!

What are those fog inserts on the track Clio and where can i get my hands on them? Look mean!

Looks amazing with stickers or without. Gorgeous car, the areo kit really makes a difference. So aggressive

Looks great, i'll have to get some spacers i think.

Looks awesome, those front wing shots are incredible

What about upgrading the engine and gearbox mounts? Then maybe some solid top mounts and putting some powerflex bushes on too? Not exactly exciting but im sure it'll stiffen the front end up.

Just had some work done on my car, when i got it back the mechanic noticed the drivers side ball joint needed replacing as its caused some uneven tyre wear. Apparently its a cheap and easy job so i thought id tackle it myself. Checked both tyres and both are worn on the inside. Does this mean i...

Ahhh i should of maybe got her to wash her hands first....

Got it off! Used clay and quite an aggressive polish and it did the trick. Really dont know what it could of been if it wasnt oil!

Noticed some finger prints on my car that just wont come off, i believe they're oily ones from when my car was last in the garage. Ive heard WD-40 and a soft cloth will remove them but it doesnt sound too clever to me. Any ideas? cheers

Hosepipe getting caught under tyres!

Ive got a ph2 172 with a cup spoiler, been to my local bike shop and they said the racks they sell wont fit my car with me having the cup spoiler on. Anyone got a rack they can advise? or does everyone use roof bars? Cheers

Just finishing off my bullets and diamonds now, on the bottle of the lacquer it says to do this before applying it. I usually follow instructions but after reading guides and things on here nobody says to do it! So basically i was just wondering if i can get away without doing it or will it...

Buy an ITG Maxogen! i love mine, awesome sound

Fitted my cup spoiler the otherday and cannot get the sodding brake light to work, could it be wiring trouble or just a new bulb? I read on here that its a common problem when fiitting one, is there a way to sort it out? Cheers

this reminds me, i was on my way back from nottingham and had to change trains and wander thru a little town and a white 172 came past, ring sticker on the back. looked good. Do it!

Gonna have a bash at fitting mine although ive just read a post that said the connections for the brake light are different and the hose for the washer jet is too small? is that the case when fitting a cup spoiler to a non sport or will i have the same problem fitting it to my 172? cheers

i may be there this week, ill keep an eye out

renotech! the guy who has it lives near me. did mine...quality

Cheers guys ill have a wander up one day! I dont want it too loud so im guessin a decat is out the question. Are the 182 decats different to a 172?

After spending boring money on belt services/tyres/mot/insurance etc etc, I'm going to spend some on a new exhaust system. Basically could you throw me some suggestions on what to look at? Id rather keep away from the stealth systems as i fancy a different look to the back end. Whats the...

Anyone running ferodo premier pads? noticed they are cheaper than standard from auto nation

ITG Maxogen

ok thanks for the help guys, anyone know anywhere to get some standard pads without paying renaults silly prices?

haha ive heard alot about them being able to pull your face off. My mates just got a set of DS2500's for his mk1 focus RS, should be awesome on that thing. Are they really worth the money though?

yea ive been reading about the greenstuff, ment to be terrible, although a few say they are fine and nothings gone wrong. I have a feeling people would be expecting too much from them using them as fastroad pads

thank god the cambelt has already been done!

I have some Brembo HCs that im about to fit and would like some advice on some pads to go with them. Im not going to be tracking my car so i wont need any of the ferodo jobbies and wouldnt even say im a "spirited" driver, only the odd time! Just something with decent performance, better than...
