Hmm me too. They look cool too. Ive just plumbed in two of those rectangle Vibe 6x9 jobbies to my 406 HDI and it was F.. hard work I had to cut loads of metalwork just to get em in, ive gone to all this hard work Im just hoping the I dont need a cap or backup battery.......
I had a squirrel drop out of a tree and hit my windscreen once. Blummin Sh!t myself and it cracked the window!! I think the most damage you can do is puncture a tyre on a its bones.
Oh yeah hit a badger once too.......God rest its sole. :sick:
Must admit im looking to get one of these ive just ordered a new amp (Vibe BB3). I currently have a vibe 12" active sub. Although I havent experienced it with one amp, Ive got a feeling the other electrics may suffer (power dips on bass) with two amps. Ill keep my eye on this thread me thinks. ;)

Is it an import, mines an import Y plate Mk1 15,000 on the clock FSH etc etc and a dealer said he couldnt give me any more than 5K!! I asked him if he was joking and when he said no I walked.
I noticed on my car next to the wheels there are massive circular scratches where the wheel brush has obviously missed or is still spinning when it moves up the side of the car. I wouldnt mind but ive only used the carwash twice!!
It was the relays......ALL THREE!! :o Basically some.....ok alot of water had found its way in and fooked the lot. Got two new ones they are in and now the car starts but the other one is for the cooling fan so I need to avoid traffic jams until Renault get me the part.
Thanks again.
Another thing should I be able to hear the fuel pump prime when I turn on the ignition? Ive had a quick listen at the rear quarter of the car but cant hear anything?
Have checked all the fuses under the bonnet they seem ok but they 50 + 60 amp ones so I havent got any spare to check properly. As for relays they seem to make all the right clicking noises.
Mk1 172
I went to start my car today it started for a split second then cut out. Now it wont start, its turning over but not firing I think the fuel pump has gone. Is there such thing as a fuel pump fuse and if so where is it located.
Im really tearing my hair out on this one!!
Use Renault. I had a guy (cant remeber the company) come out to sort some scratches on the door, now may paint work looks dull. I wish id just spent the extra money to get renault to do it. :(
I just clipped mine straight on you may see sparks, they look bad but they wont hurt you, Wear rubber glove if have too :). I connected my earth to the rear seat belt coil.
I think warm to cold start problems are common on Renaults in general, I seem to remember that been mentioned on top gear, 5th gear, pulling Power or Deals on Wheels I cant remember. :confused:
I use the Reanult Formula 1 spray one week then Wonder Wheels the next. I use a paint brush with the Wonder Wheels though that little brush they supply makes it harder work. The wheels always look alot brighter after the Wonder Wheels though.
Every couple of months I take the wheels off and...
I had the same problem with my trip computer turned out to be a cable shorting on the bodywork, it could be a friday car and they didnt wire it to a permenant live.
Had that on my 19 16v trying to remember what it was now....im not sure i think it was the rear window aswell (had a couple of leaks). I know it wasnt coming from the bottom of the car cus I had it checked out.
Have you thought about keeping your car giving it stiffer suspension (faster around corners) and uprated brakes (later braking). you car will feel faster, oh yeah a loud exhaust to put a smile on your face as well. :D
Drill through the bulk head stick your cable through then seal it. I used bathroom and kitchen seal, oh yeah then I covered the lot with no more nails. :D
