Done well getting the rears glowing! I use Ds1.11 in the meg. Can hot lap for ages no fade and consistent pedal feel, with the added bonus of decent stopping power from cold on the street. I believe dsuno are also very good albeit dont last as long.

I had exactly the same experience with pbs, overrated pads imo.

Indeed mate would have ended up nasty if it had let go mid corner! Good to meet you too mate. I was going to swap them for fresh ar1 on sunday too, lessons learned never trust old tyres. 100% mate its russian roulette once tyre is getting on. Your welcome mate. Your clio was going great, i...

Updates With the decent weather finally here, fitted the technomagnesio wheels with yoko a048 for Croft. On the Makro run to test. Turn in on semi slicks compared to pilotsport5 is immense. Steering feels direct but on the negative side, less comfort and more noise. Monday comes and get to...

Decent repait that. When you get it back pop doorcard off and cavity wax the inside.

Injector cleaner wont fix a knackered injector, needs replacing.

As As @Mr Underhill said above get the lance in. Id whip rear doorcards and blast it in on the rear arch seams and sill. Dont forget to put some cardboard or whatever underneath the sill as the cavity wax will run out of any small gap onto the floor. Done my Trophy a couple of years ago.

Looks spot on. Get a load of cavity wax on the inner rear arches and inner sills, will stay rot free for years.

Renault dealer level diagnostics.

Get it scanned with can clip and it will give you an indication where to go, without that your guessing.

Updates. Got a set of Ferodo Ds1.11 pads for the front so fitted them on Sunday morning. Ten min pad change. Whilst in the area i greased the lower swivels on the perfo hubs via the grease bolts. These are an essential mod for mk2 meg to keep the swivel bearings right, do it once a year and...

Fuel filter is part of the sender in tank. Itll be worth changing full sender and pump at 125k, it will be getting near end of lifespan.

If discs still look good and pads have a decent amount on, might just need a deglaze to remove pad deposits. Try 70-30mph hard breaking x3 times basically get the brakes smoking. Let them cool and see if any better. If discs are worn/lipped and pads about done, brembo hc discs and stock brembo...

Assuming currently running ok, eml not on and assume its had oil and filters done already. Maybe a set of plugs if unknown age. EfiParts is the place to go.

Updates Croft prep today, with one week to go i thought i best pull my finger out. Woke up early due to dieting/controlled starvation so on it at 8am. First job pad change back to Ferodo ds1.11 and fit the posh pins. I refit stock pads for road use as saves the wear and excessive brake dust...

Normal. Doesnt generally cause too much of an issue when intank fuel pressure reg is holding pressure ok. With some remaps they prime every cycle

My mrs is brunette so must be another one. In coincidence she does drive it quite often and her mate is in Hartlepool so does get over there occasionally.

I would normally swap them over but ill prob leave them in after this one ready for Anglesey.

Prob due a set of new injectors if not replaced recently.

Never thought of it like that, makes sense.

For everbody with the milwankee m12 tyre inflator. Does anybody find the gauge is pretty inaccurate? I can put it on, inflate, remove i.e up to 35psi. Then if i refit i.e to raise pressure a little for whatever, it shows a different pressure it will show lower i.e. 33psi and then it will pump...

Ching spec smoke tester purchased. Good bit of kit.

Yep lad basically copied off mine, ill let him off as hes sound though, its a nice thing. Its lacking decent suspension from memory so id imagine itll be interesting to drive! Mine was horrendous before i fitted the Ast's.

Updates Mot passed a few weeks back, no dramas as expected. Running great as usual and been using it a couple of times a week. Usual anti social parking As ive been procrastinating and not using it for its intended trackday fun yet - ive booked a full day up at Croft on the 13th May. Its...

Updates. Passed mot. Oil and filter changed for fresh 10/50 millers cfs nt+. Old stuff was still pretty clean as had only done Anglesey and road miles, around 1200 in total. Examined it and no chunks or any other shite so that will do me. Ive had what sounds like an intermittent exhaust blow...

Turbo coolant hoses tee-d into both sides of heater wont cause an issue ref hot heater. Mine is plumbed in like that, no problems. If you cant get any cold id imagine the flap in heater box is not moving right. If its climate then itll be the damaged cog.

Much better than the old setup mate 👌 the design of rad core will cool far better than the old one.

I echo the slow yet fun. I enjoy driving my orange dci on the b roads, can drive it flat out and its quite good fun without too much risk involved

Dcf 899p will easily spin subframe bolts out as they are tightened to a max of 105nm. It wont struggle with any bolts on a clio, it has no problems undoing hub nuts that are torqued to 280nm+. Crank pulley bolt flys out too no dramas at all.

Good to hear no bent valves. Id imagine the bolt that goes in the block is still available from renault. Failing that stick a wanted up somebody will have 2nd hand. Its shared with loads of blocks from that era.
