Sorry type o Im gona get a no questions asked mot then get the map looked at or option 2 (whilst i findout whats happed to clio) Buying a new car tomorrow, e46 325 compact as very cheap and has everything already for drifting welded diff, coilovers, rack spacers, and hydro brake. :-)

I dont really wana name and shame untill iv spoken to him about if its the map but if hes any other then helpfull i will lol. So according to the video cat is past it, but its still to high to have everything fail im gona plus im buying new tomorrow hopfully

Actuallythinking about it when it was getting mapped his dyno was breaking alot had to got back 3-4 times before it was got done. maybe mapped with dodgey afr readings?

Cool so less heat at back of cat wouldnt really mean the cat is pooped then? With the pipe connected fast idle Co 2.3ish Hc 540ish Lambda goes up and down 1.3 tops .8 lowest dosnt settle Idle co 3.2 ish Was higher before i done the stuff at top of page 'parts done so far'

And those readings are with the carbon can pipe disconnected its much higher with it connected up

Co 1.40 .2 limit Hc passed 147 200 limit Lambda 1.3 1.03 pass Iv just checked the cat with my inferred gun im getting 230-240 c at front and 120-130 at back And its heat wrapped and at 2500-2800 rpm and engine is roasting I think the cat is pooped what you think?

Yeah 5-6 days a week about 50miles each day to work and back which is town/slash b road driving and sometimes blast up the motorway on the way home as theres a nice long tunnel :-)

Yeah had it roasting hot iv got i inferred temp reader i forgot about might check the cat with it. its gota be the same temp after the cat isnt it? and if he temps low after the cat, cats constipated lol Cheers again for help guys

Hmm would that be a educated guess or borderline positive lol iv already had a quote for a pattern cat for £120 to get thru mot then i can put my decat back but mondays another day ill check it all again including the cat and report back but if wana one has more input im all ears before i start...

Bought the cat from a guy on here about 2 months ago said only used for a bit then decated it so would like think its ok or am i to trusting?

Hi as above cars failed mot I have a phase 1 172 125k 230bhp turbo conversion 6-7psi sports cat, cat back exhaust standard internals aem ecu. rest of the mot passed just the emissions failed on co hc co2 the whole test failed in other worlds lol. Iv got the printout in my car in the garage, when...

Not 100% but i believe clio immob cuts fuel pump not the injectors. If thats the case (someone hopefully will confirm) then not immob fault

Sorry just reread the post, your getting the fuel primed from the pump ignore my last post. Make sure the gearbox earth connection is good really clean with sandpaper on contact points on chassi and gbox

That would my guess what simon said clio 2 immobilisers have a mind of there own after battery disconneted. Lock the car with remote disconnect batt for 10mins reconnect open with remote and turn on the ignition and wait till immobiliser light goes out then start the car. This can work first...

Annoyingly I didn't take pictures from the start but let's say I bought from someone who didn't car at all for the poor Clio. The last owner used it to take his dog to the parks and it was full of take away left overs (grim and smelly) iv had to change near enough every aspect of the the car...

It's been on going for a couple years but is nearly done just gotta get the a dent out the bonnet, get corner weight set up and then save for quaffe gearbox :-)

My project so far

What bloke said but I bought a fleabag one and didn't fit properly and rattled but can buy a 90' angled adaptor that worked on the Mrs cooper s :-)

K tec racing sell a mini cheat cat for decats that screws in between the rear lambda sensor and the decat pipe Bit expensive but keeps the car fooled http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=4347&appid=4 Hope that helps

Siily question are you sure the new ecu came off a 172 cup? Is there a chance it came off a 182 cup? Like you said 172 cups don't have abs esp like the 182 have.

Hi guys as above got a bad knock over bumps in the x reg 172 phs1 the interia is completely stripped, coil overs, strut brace side exit exhaust is the only stuff at back. any way I've been trying to find the noise for a while and I've got a noise/ squeak detector ( wires with microphone...

Hey bud so if the temp gauge not goin above the half way point my guess would crank sensor first or just a guess when I had my 1.2 16v had similar fault with engine earth cable causing to much resistance when it was hot if ur good with a multimetre do a little resistance test between the earth...

Hey bud could be 1 of a few things. like what mickpm saids get the car hot then check that the bank 1/ upstream o2 sensor is switching constantly and iv had one before with same symptoms turned out to be the dephaser pulley had seized. But enough to keep in idling and enough to drive ok but...

Hey buddy If you can replace the burnt out rear bulb holder even if looks ok proberly still knacked if its had earth burning. Or to test it try if you can swap the rear bulb holder with the other side and see if the fault swaps side aswell. then you know its them or not. Plus( without...

Hey bud I have done all the normal checks like tb map iat icv sensors air leaks vac leaks cracked inlet havnt done compression test or injector flow rate yet but wouldnt think it would be something like that as it would all the time but its only like once amonth so its weird Cheers

Whilst im here is theshift light (green gear stick on dash) is that ecu controlled or gearbox sensor triggered as mine stays on all thetime and gearbox oil is ok changed in last couple months and rechecked today Many thanks tom

Yeah sorry was to put that in I bought a renault 1 bout 2 months ago and it is switch fine I think what is causing it to come on is in the engine and just confusing the o2 but switches ok when eml on Thanks

Hi guys as above another idle issue. Had a look around the car and old treads but nothing quite the same as what im getting. Been doin it for a while every now and then like once a month it will idle high when hot or cold and will keep raising slowly then after a couple key on and offs the eml...

Im not bothered about millage really just looking for a half decent clio and my 172 is getting a familiar gearbox whine and it starting to stall Prob icv and a nother gbox so just want something else and havnt had a 197 and dnt like the clio 4 lol

Really? Looking at other f1 with same millage are well in the £8000 plus area. Even doin a car valuation said it should be in the £8000's Am I missing something here? Lol
