Hello everyone. I'm Oliver from Stoke on Trent and I have recently aquired a 03 plate 172 cup in standard form. It's booked in for a cambelt in September as it's due. I need to give it a quick service also. The front splitter has cracked a little and the steering wheel is worn as per the norm but other than that it's peachy.
The reason for my post: I have done some searching but can't seem to find exact answers to my questions.
1. The speedo occasionaly fails so I have ordered a replacement. I know where the sensor is located. I just wanted to know if you just pull the old one straight out or whether there is a specific tecnique?
2. For those of you with aftermarket wheels that has lost the airbag, how does it affect your insurance when declaring that you have replacing the rs wheel for a none airbag varient?
3. I'm used to old mx5s that have very mechanical feeling throttles. The clios feels very artificial in comparison and sometimes I feel as though the speed fluctuates a little on constant throttle and some times I also feel that the throttle control means I struggle to maintain a constant speed on a motorway due to lack of feel? Does this seem pretty normal?
Thanks guys
apologies If there any any spelling errors, tea is ready and the missus is telling me to get off the computer!
