Edit thought it was the front shocks

Spent half an hour scratching my head wondering where the last piece of wiring loom connected, before realising I switch over to solid-state sensors last year and that bit's not needed any more....??

 

[LTEpic]

Finally got to doing my inner tie rods and ends together with powerflex steering rack bushes and tracking! Oh also a wiper delete blank been put on too

Cleaned my arches this morning

 

[Karlos182]

Cleaned the 182 this afternoon, along with the wife’s Civic.

 

[Ian_182]

I drove my daughter to school.

 

[Mr R.]

Collected it from its sleep over at Torque developments.

Drives superb.

I rounded the 10mm nut on the fuel rail guard...... ?? Such little jobs always turn into a pain in the arse on clio’s!!

 

[PhillipM]

If it's any consolation I went to remove a faulty rear ABS sensor, which is a single M6 bolt and just pull out and clip in a new one.....and it resulted in me having to take the entire hub off, brakes, etc, weld a nut to the now-demolished siezed little bolt, and then beat the plastic ABS sensor out with a mallet because of the hub that had corroded and bit into the plastic housing.
And to do that meant removing the hub and bearing assembly which was in the way, which then means I ended up changing a perfectly good hub and bearing too - because that also did not want to play nicely when coming off.
Oh, and my jack collapsed halfway through swapping the ramp under the wheel for an axle stand and gave me heart attack - and then I couldn't get it back down off the stand as my other jacks were far too low....

The sensor is supposed to be a 2 minute job, you don't even have to jack the car up normally....

They're meant to be a tight fit. Almost impossible to get them out without destroying the sensor.

 

[PhillipM]

This was a Peugeot I'm afraid though, it's supposed to come straight out

 

[Stay Puft]

Another clean. Love how well the wheels come up.

I got really fucked off trying to remove the rounded nut on my fuel rail guard so I “sorted” it out ?

 

[Plummer]

Passed it's MOT at the 103k mark with no advisories!

 

[Plummer]

New seatbelts!
After having had them sat for a year in my room. ??

Liking the Leon cupra 225 at the mo. Hard to find though. Low miles and good condition etc.

 

[Daz...]

Changed the oil and fitted a vibratechnics gearbox mount. Then parked it outside the house. Far too hot for this stuff.

 

[Plummer]

Fitted some custom R.S. badges, chuffed with them!
Also had a go at adding some green pin stripes to the dash strips, not sure what I think of them yet tbh.

 

[MURRAY48]

Gave my cup a quick wash two minds what to do with it at the moment sell or spend ??

?It's on the list to do just haven't had the chance. I'm needing to spend some time/money on it before I'm happy with it ?

 

[RIC172]

Make my car work again by replacing the alternator and jump starting it off my mother in law’s Suzuki Alto

 

[Daz...]

Fitted the decat pipe that came with my car. I have a suspicion the cat has died, it smelt like it was on fire yesterday and the car was running rough.

Seems better now.

 

[jamesycc]

Cleaned, polished. Dressed all the black plastics and wheels.

Hoovered and dusted the interior.

She's being shown off at a local meet tomorrow.

Can't show up looking dirty and unloved now. ??

 

[Hyperhatch]

Put some stickers on it

 

[JamesBryan]

Washed it for the first time in ages.

Yeah, Speedline 2118's which are absolutely fucked and don't look that clean in person ?

 

[Mbeau]

Took the road Cup for a run as been stood for a few weeks. Changed the engine mount for a nice new standard one.

Getting the track Cup ready for Brands on Tuesday evening. Had all the calipers off, rear offside had a completely seized slider. Sorted that and then the bleed nipple flippin snapped. Will probably have to get a reconditioned one Monday as pushed for time. Fitted new race exhaust mount. Adjusted rear ARB. New Aux belt as previous owner had fitted it the wrong way! ? Will hopefully get a load more done tomorrow.

 

[Clio_fool]

Washed all the bird s**t off it. I think an ostrich flew over me the other day, the whole car got bombed.
