Yeah it's mark free, only done 60miles so far and that was just driving it back from the dealer... Just want to keep it that way for as long as possible, don't mind investing some time/money in to the stuff to do it properly, but I'm clueless with it all. Also reading about this supaguard on...

Hi!!! Not been on here for a while, i've just picked up this... The ly Clio is now gone :( Anyway, I know you boys are well in to your detailing etc... I've had a read through but I'm baffled and need advice. I want to spend some time protecting the paint on it (it's brand new, had some...

I can't see that myself either, but have also been told its doable

Try replacing the crank sensor if not change the engine ?!? That's good advice!! Get it looked at mate, will be much cheaper than aimlessly throwing parts at something that could end up being scrap, it sounds hydraulic to me, as has been said, you'd need to take the spark plugs out and see if...

Yep, from experience oil quantity isn't particularly important (being overfilled I mean, obviously too little is bad)

I'm sure it's been mentioned.. But people with 4 door fiestas arranging "cruises" around shopping centres and similar.. That annoys me. Not knocking 4door fiesta ownership.. But covering it in stickers and halfords accessories does not make it a race car.. Surely they are embarrassed to be doing...

I don't think ph1 door cards match the shape of the end of the dash, and the window switches are a horrible shape compared to the ph2.. I'd get the proper ph2 cards... The rest should fit

More than likely anti roll bar inner bushes... They dry out and crack making a creak over bumps

Read absorb learn a shitty Internet link that could have been written by a moron. I'm a tester too, and can confirm that it's not a fail yet.. Vosa haven't told us when it will be either. As far as I can work out the engine management light will Never be a failure item DESPITE all the flyers...

That won't have anything to do with the parking brake though.. Must have a problem if that's recording no effort. Parking brake is the handbrake, so cable operated and not effected by the load valve

Just to add to that.. You only have to cut down one side of the disc preferably in line with the wheel bolt holes.. Then wedge a chisel in the cut and it will split in two ;)

I tend to agree! If 50% of the population thought like us the que or cue if you like would be half the length ;)

I'd love to expand on that but that is about the size of it lol. If they got that hot to bubble the paint on the wheel, they have probably friction welded to the stub axles.. You could get them off by breaking the disc and bearing up until your left with the inner races of the bearing then...

It won't be a balljoint (definately) I would say that can only be driveshaft related.. In my opinion its most likely to be an outer cv joint so by that logic the other side you havn't done.. Unlikely to be an inner joint being affected by steering like that. When they wear enough to cause play...

That's gonna be real hard to guess at without seeing it. Where abouts in Essex are you?
