What have you done to your car today ???

[Darren61]

Refitted the Whiteline bar after some bolts shearing when removing last month.

Managed to find some u bolts that fit, a bit thicker than standard.

I want to remove mine as it’s been on there for a few years and has started to get some surface rust, so needs some attention to smarten it up. Any tips to get it off?

 

[Andy Tims]

The Trophy sailed through its MOT yesterday

 

[stu8v]

Plugs and air filter swapped out, is it me or does it seem smoother....

Brake pads checked over and sliders regreased.

Mine had been on for 5 years, the u bolts on the rear beam sheared all 4 threads off ?

Just try the usual penetrant spray or heat.

 

[DomP182]

Fitted the missing front bumper splash guard/support thingy, bumper sits better now. While up in the air I put washers on the gearbox end of my polybushed dogbone, again a missing item!

Just need to get the brake light working on my cup spoiler.

 

[ClioPowa]

Gave it a wash and took it down the A628 for a drive. ?

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

Fixed a dodgy wire on the starter motor and fitted my refurbed wheels

 

[Panda.]

Hand a new stainless down pipe, angled turbo housing and sports cat fitted, and went for a bazz ?

 

[Sash]

Picked up the refurbished wheels today and gave them a couple of coats of sealant ???

Woke up thinking if there was a way to install an aftermarket steering wheel but still have the cruise control functionality available.

It’s been done before. There’s a guy on here who was selling the panel and buttons for the cruise control. Do a search and I’m sure it’ll come up.

Search for Volantech on Facebook, he's the guy that does the kits.

 

[ClioPowa]

Just seen his work and looks amazing. He's currently on holiday until 11th March so will contact closer to the time. Thanks for the recommendation.

Love it, deffo need on car pics.

 

[Oggy997]

mot'd the Lupo, ripped half the Boxster interior out trying to get access to the convertible push rods (unsuccessful) ordered some new bits for it ready to sell it on (arch liner, clean rear bumper, headlight bracket)

 

[Sash]

 

[PhillipM]

Well, not mine, but a friend brought some dampers up hoping I'd take a look at them 'cause they were running hot....

Yeah, that's cause half of Wales is inside them....the oil is supposed to be transparent red....

I think I've salvaged the remotes and hoses and that's about it....

 

[Pistachio]

A quick wash, autosol'd the miltek (why does autosol come out like 2 stripe toothpaste?) , back-to-black'd the exhaust trims and front wiper mechanism, hoovered and washed the interior and seats, cleaned the door sill plates. Also autosol'd the metal pedals, which didn't really work very well

 

[welshname]

Cleaned it as last weekend the pressure washer gave in after doing the woman's car.

New one is much better and more powerful.

When did you get another MPS?

Think you've mistaken me for someone else?

It's this s**t new mobile forum. It jitters about and doesn't let me click the right thing. Meant to be @James that I quoted

Had it about 6 months I think. I'll get a thread up at some point, but it'll probably be sold by the time I get round to it lol

 

[Karlos182]

Changed the VVT solenoid seal. Thought it was that, leaking oil over the top of the engine. Now thinking it’s probably the cam cover seal, as oil is leaking onto the exhaust manifold and smoking lightly.

 

[linearvsunison]

Dropped the TCE off at the garage with a split boost pipe ?

Done all that work & then this. Won't be selling it now .....

A classic ‘watch this’ moment?

 

[Oggy997]

Not really, but my fault nonetheless

 

[Ex-User (19928)]

New wheels

 

[Clio_fool]

Had it in the garage yesterday for new lambda's fitting and the codes reset. Ran it on the emissions machine and it's mot worthy. Now it just needs to stay that way until the mot on the 22nd ?

 

[djp66]

Spring clean, so mainly going from this

to this - its a start but more to do.

Also, how many time do you think my calipers have been re-painted

 

[Oggy997]

Cleaned the wife's two.

 

[Krarl]

*Choo-Choo chav noises*

 

[Daz...]

Cleaned it for the second time this year, i think I’m half way to last years total already.

Had my Snappy re trimmed steering wheel fitted, just need to swap the silver renaultsport badge with my blue one.

I assume they just clip on & off?

Looks really good, loved my Snappy Wheel on my previous 182.

You’re right, they just push off with a flat head screwdriver

 

[Dalzo]

Had the track car into the auto electrician to get a loom built. Waiting for that to be finished then off to mapping

[bozothenutter]

Not today, but put on a new Quaifed box, quicker steering rack, rollcentre correction, lighter flywheel and arb bushes....
