    OEM vs Purflux retail oil filter

    Used ls932 On pretty much all the F series Renaults I’ve worked on. No issues. Then again I’ve used a fair few Bosch filters

    1.5dci engine not starting

    Also do as the chap above said , get another decent fuel filter , and with your old one , cut it open without making to much mess and see if it’s full of metal filling from a failing pump

    1.5dci engine not starting

    That nozzle has blown down to some sort of wear or extreme heat expansion , common enough on diesels, can sometimes cause hard starts or rough running due to the injection needle not Seating fully in the nozzle, and the nozzle holes not spraying the correct pattern. yes the injectors can be...

    1.5dci engine not starting

    That sounds to me like a bad injector. Leak off might not show much but getting injectors tested will give you a better idea. Obv using sniff to start it will help as that’s ether, more easy to combust than diesel , and will help wang the engine over more to build pressure up. I’d be getting...

    1.5dci engine not starting

    Need to do the dead head pump test with the correct Delphi kit to see if it can produce the correct amount of bar. Have you tried giving it a tiny bit of sniff to see if it’ll start and keep running ?

    Intermittent limp mode is sending me insane!

    We did change that then it threw a hissy fit and wouldn’t start at all with the solid red light came on.... Wondering if the loom above gearbox has a half broken wire in it. Those lambda wires seemed to be ok, got resistance checked to and from ecu plug , and load tested wiring to the plug...

    Power Tool Perverts

    Don’t know about dewalt ect but I’ve abused my wilfookies at work daily for 3 years and they’ve never stopped working , even dropped my 1/2 gun from high up and it survived ( battery fell apart but still works lol ) usually see them come up onsale at euros/ toolstation as a kit for decent coin

    Anti squeal grease when changing brake pads?

    Silicon slider grease. An the tiniest amount of Pad grease of the ears to stop the getting corroded fast and sticking. ( apec do brake grease ) clean everything up ie all matting surfaces the pad has contact with. Callipers ears , carrier , piston ect General rule of thumb is a tiny amount of...

    Austin’s Clio dci 100 Initiale

    bottom end knocks on these sound like top end knocks. if Chris pulled the sump and took the main caps off one of them will have span , or rod bearing. injector knock will have it chucking smoke out the exhaust as it’ll be overfuelling. Cam rattle doesn’t sound anywhere near as bad. id also...

    Austin’s Clio dci 100 Initiale

    Actually tel a lie , I have seen oil like that before. A scenic I rebuilt an engine on last year , the lump i took out had bad service history( lack of oil changes ) that was all like that , including a very clogged intake port. bet sump is full of it and it’s span a big end Got a front starter...

    Austin’s Clio dci 100 Initiale

    Theses don’t run lifters. They’re solid buckets ( set clearance buckets non shimmed ) that oil looks abit weird. If it still sounds s**t , it’s probably either finally spat a big end, or somethings adrift. if You was closer I would of had a look at it for you.
