Could someone pop up a quick guide, step by step for me - is it a fairly straight forward job?
The blue flame is a fully...

My laptop has just arrived, just getting to grips with windows vista.
I need to transfer my files off my existing PC to the Laptop as it is now redundant.

Simple...

Two very fit girls driving them, i was in the 172 cup ahead of you... cars looked very clean, unlike my poo stained cup.

Hi All
Just fitted a new lambda sensor to my cup -thanks graham.
my emmision light was on, and when it was diag'd it turned up to be sensor number 2 on the downstream.
once fitting the new one on, and turning the car on the emission light was still on - does it need a reset for this to go...
Hi all
Nothing to do with my computer, but my sisters.
She has just bought a new tower unit, so wants me to back up all her pics, work etc onto cds...
now, when i go into her documents, select the picture file and all her files are there with the preview of the pictures on the file itself...
Finally got round to fitting my new bits the other day, a brand new accelerator pedal assembly, and a 2nd hand throttle body.
Put these on, and got my mate (RAC fella) to come and reset all the "error codes". Once this was done, i disconnected the battery, left for 15 minutes, fitted throttle...
Morning all,
I have a knocking noise coming from underneath the car - not sure exactly on its location.
It sounds as if the exhaust is knocking against the chasis.
My friends cup does exactly the same.
It primarily happens in first gear when at full acceleration, but sometimes happens...
Following on from previous post;
Having had the RAC diagnose my fault as the "throttle position sensor" i ordered a new complete pedal unit from renault. Having fitted the new unit, the readings still showed maximum position at 63% :( as it was with the old unit on...
anyway, left the car...
I have just had the RAC out this evening, as my car was going into limp home mode, the electrical light came on...
turned the car off, and back on again and now the exhaust emission light was on.
Rac came out, plugged it in and it said there was an error with the throttle position sensor...
Following on from my topic in general discussions the other day.
I am experiencing a problem with the speedo, whereby i will be driving at e.g 50mph as per speedo, but in fact i am doing 57mph in real speed!! so the speedo is actually UNDER reading!
I took the car to renault today, and sure...
Well having bought a cup last monday, i haven't really driven it since.
Took it on a decent run up to thorpe park yesterday - great day shame about the weather, and i highly recommend the "stealth" ride it was awesome.
Anyway, on leaving my house a few miles up the road there is a speed...
Hi all,
Been a while since i have been on here.
Having bought a 172 recently, i am looking to upgrade the brake setup.
I am wondering what brake setup i should go for, and where to buy, as prices at some places seem to be sky high.
Looking to change both the back and the front discs...

Right, i managed to pull some of my stitching out from my seat today, and put a tiny hole in the seat itself...
does anyone know if this is relatively fixable..i know its more than likely the whole bottom part of the seat will have to be replaced for the hole, as its difficult to hide, but can...
Just out of interest... the clio v6 seats as seen in the pic below have coloured writing on them, do the 172's/cups/182 have this writing in colour? Only reason i ask as im searching for a replacement... if i cant find one, im going to get the trophy seats fitted i think...
Basically i want to completely reformat the computer.... get rid of everything on there?
Im assuming in order to do this properly, im looking at loosing windows xp etc, which will need re-installing after.
Whats the quickest, and easiest way to do this... i mean step by step newbie, non...
