I am very peed off. Spent £550 for a recon box and fitted it all in to find it crunches from first to second. The place that did the box is also closed till wednesday. Now i gotta spend another day ripping it all out again.
My car has developed a slight crunch going from 2nd to 3rd gear. Its fine coming down a gear from 4th and if i change really slow. Ive change the gearbox oil which made it seem fine for a bit. The gearbox was a recon about 12k ago. Is it a worn syncro?
Ive read on here but there old threads that this car is common for wires to rub on the ecu cover causing this fault. If this is the case what is the best plan of action. Cheers
Front brakes only just met the front brake imbalance requirements. It would appear that the braking system requires adjustment or repair.
What would cause this as id like it sorted. The front pads have loads left on them and the disks am perfect
I changed my dephaser a couple of weeks ago as it was rattling its t**s off. But at about 2k revs i can here it rattling very feint. Also if i pull off at a junction without enough revs then the rattle is worse.
Got a clio 1.6 rxe on a T plate and when the engine is running, if you lift the dip stick out you can here what sounds like compression from the cylinders. Is this a sign of head gasket failure??
Since putting my 17s back on the car about a week ago ive notice what i think to be loads more road noise. Ive not long changed both front shocks which were genuine parts.
I know ive got a humming wheel bearing on the back but this is defo coming from the front.
Ive just gone to put my window up and it came up on the slant. the side of the window by the b pillar came out the door and i noticed a small piece on the glass that looks like it should sit in a runner. help!!!
I noticed a patch on my drive. after some investigation i found it leaking from the cap where its filled up. Should there be a seal on the cap or is the cap worn ???????
Whenever i put my foot down to the floor on the accelerator i get the electrical fault light come up on the dash and car goes in to limp mode. If i turn ignition off then on its fine until i put my foot down again.

After buying my second set of timing tool to do my dephaser, which will be done as soon as the temp is above freezing im thinking of renting the tools out. With a returnable deposit to cover possible damages, postage paid by hirer and a small fee. If People are local I dont mind dropping in and...
Just bin out and could hear this feint noise. Got home under the bonnet ant there is a tapping noise right across the cams. Here is a quick vid off my phone
My phone does make it sound louder than it is and seems to be louder towards the exhaust cam
I had a feeling there was something up with my steering over the past few days so i had a look today to find that both drivers side and passenger side have play in the rack. Not 100% sure if its the tie rods. Ive also read on here about steering rack bushes and a adjuster that should stop play...
Ive had some 17inch wheels on my car for a couple of weeks and dont like them, so im after some standard 172 rims. When i got the car it had some multi spokes on and dont want to put them back on. Just wanted to know How much should i pay for a decent set of 4 with good tyres?
Ive searched the net about this and cant seem to find anybody thats done this. My mates mk1 meggy with 1.6 16v engine has give up the ghost, so instead of just dropping another lump in we are looking to drop a F4R into it. I know id need the obvious like loom, ecu and the engine but what else...
My mate has a mk 1 megane 1.6 16v and the engine is fubard. Would it be possible to put a 172 engine in it. If so what would be needed from the donor car. If it gonna be to much hassle then we will just drop another 1.6.16v in it
