im asking because when I changed my front spring the shock didn't expand like gas ones normally do, yet when I fitted new rear shocks they were gas/oil
just purchased a pair of these off ebay cheap both have 7.5mm of tread left hopefully they will perform better than the yokohama s-drives I am replacing
Anyone tried these?
my rear offside door on my megane can neither be opened from the outside or the inside.
will this be an MOT failure?
the door is however secure.
thanks james :D
does anyone know the paintcode for modial blue for a 172cup as renault don't seem to know :eek:
also I thought it was on the door pillar but still couldn't see it.
cheers
should I be worried about these timing marks? im guessing theres a good chance its timed up wrong?
also I couldn't find any play in the dephaser pulley after having a suspected dephaser noise, should I see any play here? i.e between the pulley and the centre
As some of you may know i bought a 172 cup a couple of weeks back.
The only thing that is bothering me (apart from the dephaser needing repalcement) is the instability at speed which is alot worse in the wet the car has yokohama s-drive's all round, all have good tread running 33psi front and...
so I was thinking about putting a spare wheel in the cup and have a couple of questions-
1. does it have to be the same size as the ones on the car (195 45r16) i read somewhere both wheels on one axle have to be the same size
2. where is the best place to source a 16" steel from. i.e what car...
http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=610&appid=2 I take it these are oil and not gas, as the rams are not fully extending?
I thought the idea of gas shocks was they don't fade, so why would people switch from standard gas shocks to oil ones which are more expensive?
opinions please
hello all, i recently purchased a 172 cup all is good apart from a possible dephaser noise, it is quiet until the engine has had a good run then there is slight tapping noise (almost like the noise of a clutch from a diesel car at low rpm (if that makes any sense)) it doesn't sound like any...
ok so went to have a look at a 172 cup and the bloke told me it would not start but said i could try, the red immobaliser light stayed on and it turned over for 2 seconds and stopped and then wouldn't turn over at all. so the next day he took it to a renault specialist (wests) and they diagnosed...

the only differance i noticed was the 5 pin yellow plug that goes to the screen one pin was in a...
make sure the manual primer works replaced mine today went to prime the new one and nothing pumping it didn't do a thing, so i took the filter off and filled it up with diesel, after 30 minutes on and off of cranking the engine still wouldn't start ended up calling the RAC out he managed...
hi guys i just purchased a dci 65 on a 02 plate every thing is fine except a tapping/leaking noise coming from what sounds like on of the injectors almost sounds like air leaking at high pressure for a split second very revolution of the engine if that makes sense. not to bothered if its gonna...
had a look at a potential new car today and it had a cliosport url sticker in the windows. does anyone recognise it?
already spotted that the rear shocks are leaking but would like to know some more history before putting a deposit down.

thanks james
does anyone know where I can get a boot locking motor for a 182 from as it looks like a fairly standard motor, i was thinking a maybe a model shop may have one.
thanks james
changed my brake fluid with this ^ twice now due to pedal having a spongy feel however this made no difference.
yesterday i put some lockheed dot5.1 in it and the brakes are transformed, they feel like they did when i got the car 2 years ago.
I guess the moral of the story is don't buy cheapo...
