My cooling fan dont seem to be kicking in so can anyone answer me the following little posers.
Where is the fan switch?

Could it be anything else, I darent use it in case i cook the engine in traffic!

Use a Tack Rag from a automotive paint shop - £3.25 a box in our shop.

Just put a new dog bone stabiliser on my 16v.
I know you can buy uprated ones but what i did was buy a standard renault one and squeeze silicone in to the voids in the big rubber. Leave in the warm overnight to cure then feel how much stiffer it is after (no puns please) .
Tell you what...
Has anyone had to change the Dog Bone Stabiliser on there 16v.
I need to do mine because it has a lot of movement on the gearstick when letting my foot off the throttle.
Are they a cow to do or what? Does it help the problem?
Gave my car a mini service the other day.
I Cant belive how much or a ba$tard the oil filter was to get at.

What a ball ache. no wonder my hairs receeding.
Hello All,
We have just started to stock a new product called SFX paint. Basically its a basecoat, effect coat, and laqcuer system, easy to use.
Just base the whole car up in any choice of solid basecoat, apply the effect coat over the base, then lacquer.
Colours flip at different angles...
