    Does your epas setup do this??

    All of the ECUs and columns are the same as far as I know with colouring not representing anything specific. Are you using a looped or DCI rack? I have come across this on a looped rack before where the fluid hasn't been drained properly and it was being force through the valve. If you leave...

    Lemforder balljoints at ECP - £12 the pair (1*2)

    Sorry Darren I didn't write the above as a moan, no key board worrier here! I am often pretty astounded when I see garages say "we only fit genuine parts", shows a level of naivety in my eyes. Pattern parts could indeed be poorer quality but wouldn't be OEM as they aren't made by the OEM...

    Lemforder balljoints at ECP - £12 the pair (1*2)

    When people ask about whether they're any good they should know that a vast number of manufacturer parts are not made by the manufacturer and that there are some simply mammoth OEM suppliers which some people won't have even heard of. Realistically, when you buy genuine, you nearly always buy...

    Removing Airbag ECU

    The airbag ecu doesn't control the immobilisers so you probably cut a can line. The wire hub for the can network is in the section which goes down to the airbag ECU.

    Clio 182 turbo gasket replacement?

    I had this, I've gone for genuine Nissan 200sx gaskets as they are proven reliable and high quality.

    Urgently need 3 monitor graphics card

    😂 yep, I bought it like that and it works a charm! One week into this and it’s all working very nicely. No back ache from the monitors being at the wrong level.

    Unimpressed by 182, what do you love about it?

    Good chassis, mentally cheap to work on, best car forum going, huge following, loads of affordable aftermarket parts. If you want a road car the 182 is very very well specified for a car of that age and is a very nice place to be. Change all that and it can be a very raw track car. You can...

    Urgently need 3 monitor graphics card

    That's part because of the monitor arm, although I can adjust it out, I think (middle and right on same arm). But at work I have my phone under there so I'm weirdly used to have that one a bit higher!

    Urgently need 3 monitor graphics card

    Nearly set up now, waiting on a display port cable for the last monitor. Frustratingly the monitors only came with HDMIs. For now two will do. Quite a large set up. The monitors massively overflow my desk but who cares, this is now like the workstation I'm used with everything at the right...

    Graham's OCD ph3 DCi sport rep v2

    It appears my last update would also be the last time I washed the red shed. A couple of months ago a rare flame red cup spoiler came up on here so I snapped it up and now it lives on the back of this turd. It finishes it off very nicely and the dci really wants for nothing more...

    172 Cup Turbo Conversion

    @incy-spider is bang on here. A lot of people are pretty uninformed about turbos. They're awesome and can be reliable if built properly. Half the people who build them do them on a pants car to start with so everything breaks. It's pretty obvious things like the clutch might need changing. In...

    Urgently need 3 monitor graphics card

    I’ve had to change the monitors I ordered as they were on back order. New ones have DP so that was a result!

    Urgently need 3 monitor graphics card

    Thanks Darren, I ended up going for this one last night. Unfortunately there is a massive delay on monitors so god knows when I'll get those. Until then two will have to do. https://www.scan.co.uk/products/gigabyte-amd-radeon-rx-570-gaming-4g-mining-edition-graphics-card-oem

    Urgently need 3 monitor graphics card

    Help me! Need a 3 monitor graphics card, have no idea what I’m looking at. Not used for gaming, just work. Ideally not mental money. PC has an AMD 8350 CPU AND ASUS m5a97 r2.0 mother board. Monitors take HDMI Thank you

    Thank you everyone for the kind comments :) I'm a bit behind the videos so here is the one of me building the engine :) Snetterton 29th February In the build to Saturday there were still a few small things to sort and thankfully I had a couple of spare days leave to get them done. First up...

    Bleeding abs pump CLIP

    the procedure in clip is as follows. I did mine with Clip recently with a pressure bleeder also attached for the second stage. for each caliper you need to get out approx 200ml for the fluid to have fully passed from the MC to the bleed nipple. I did two passes on the bleeding section (second...

    Renault Kangoo 1.5dci STOP and battery light stay on, car won't start

    Graham's summer 172 cup track car

    Let start where I left off, at the end of last weekend with quite a list of things to do. After having them for years, with the removal of the bonnet release cable I had no choice but to finally fit some Aerocatches, god that's a rubbish job! Sadly on the Sunday despite my best efforts I just...

    Graham's summer 172 cup track car

    Interior The interior has now been finished off nicely and even if I say so myself the dash pod is wicked. As always, I've wired everything up to maintain the OEM modular wiring and added connection blocks to the pod to make sure it could be removed easily. On the pod I've got a switch for the...

    Graham's summer 172 cup track car

    Time for an update on here as I can't tolerate being in the garage for a minute more! Progress over the past couple of weeks has been a little slower than planned but thankfully I'd built some flexibility in to the schedule which now means we've used up all the extra time to get jobs done...

    Graham's summer 172 cup track car

    Few quick updates while I'm on the PC. I've had a couple of days off work to try and make some headway and keep to my schedule but even with this extra time it's not easy! Got the turbo back from Alex on Saturday. He changed the backplate after I broke it getting the core out of the turbine...
