Hello, what is the best way to clean the 197/200 dashboard because it's kinda rough.
I cleaned it today with SONAX cockpit spray (http://www.sonax.com/Car-Care/Products/Interior-and-Glass/%28so%29/43/%28node%29/14018/357241-SONAX-Cockpit-spray-sport-fresh) + SONAX microfibre cloth. The dash is...
When i start my car in the morning there is a message "oil level correct" and it shows 000---, later when the car gets on it's working temp the message is like this 0000--, so should i add some oil to to the max (000000) or? on the dipstick it's slightly in the middle between min. and max.
Thanks
Hi, are 182 anthracite wheels going to fit on a clio 1.2 16v 2010?
I think they both are 4x100, correct? Are there any other issues regarding ET or something else?
it's a stock engine with a straight through 63,5mm gr.a exhaust + a remap (it gives much more fuel in low-mid revs so it has much better torque from start)
you can go for AP coilovers, that are the KW V1 steel version. i've got them now for cca 17.000 km and no problems, i even raised them now when i changed my winter tyres and no signs of corrosion, the ring being stuck or whatsoever.
hello, my cat got broken when i scraped it last night, so i got a decat pipe that i will use instead.
my question - i made a remap with the cat, so will there be any problems...for example with the lean-rich fuel mixture or something else due the decat pipe being there instead the cat?
is it...
nope all new, i changed them all, upper one + under the battery original and the powerflex dogbone
one more thing, you can't hear anything in the engine area, only the drone inside through the dashboard
i've too got a droning sound ONLY at 2000 rpm, if the revs are higher or lower than 2000 rpm there is no droning...the sound can't be heard outside just inside the cabin, it kinda goes through the dashboard. the sound can be heard when driving the car and also when stationary reving it. the...
i had a decat on my gr.a exhaust system - you won't get any power gain just more in-cabin noise + you have to swap it every time for mot, so in my opinion not worth it.
but if you decide for decat i would advise you to get a remap (infact with the ph1 twin-cat i had better results than wit the...
A remap is a very good mod, but i didn't quite understand, do you have a Miltek decat or a cat? If you map with the cat and then you wish to swap for decat you will have to remap it again. My case - i made a remap on my car with the ph1 twin cat, later i took it off and used a decat, and the...
What are the symptoms when the cat is dead - except bad smell, power loss, dash lights...?
Can it be possible that your exhaust gets little quieter when the cat is broken, or not?
Thanks!
I have the same similar exhaust (from a german company powersprint) as you, and the car is also mapped. When i took my twin barrel cat off (the car was already mapped with it) the car didn't feel much responsive in low and middle range, also the fuel mixture that you are reffering to got...
Re: 182 manifold and decat fitted to the ph1, now a few running issues, ideas welcome
maybe you should put the original 182 cat (because you have now the 182 mani) back on and see how it will be.
my case was i made on my 172 a remap with the cat (double barrel) and then after some time i got...
Have a look at the AP Racing coilovers, they are german, very good build quality and are made by KW (they are the rebranded KW V1 non-inox version).
i have them now for cca 12.000 km and they are great, no problems-sounds, creaks, leaks or whatsoever.
when i ordered them i also took the...
the car was on full working temperature in both cases, but the result with the cat were better (in my case), esp. torque wise, than with the decat.
it may be due the remap and exhaust, maybe will fred have something to post about this, i recall he used also this cat on his supersprint exhaust.
i don't know how it flows with the 182 cat, but today i was a nice day so i made a test with my decat pipe and the ph1 twin cat (1 lambda)
my car is stock (i rebuilded the engine), the only thing i have is a remap and the exhaust is a supersprint gr.a 63,5mm (i got it from a car that had it on...
Anyone tried to run their ph1 with no backbox, for example 4-1 mani + cat + straight through centre section + no backbox.
will there be any issues regarding backpressure or anything else when there's no backbox or not?
so what is the final verdict of the experts (fred, jms...) - is the ph1 twin cat better (has a better flow) than a decat pipe?
is the ph1 twin cat 100 or 200 cell?
now since a couple of days there's a nasty cracking noise from the wishbone area.. I just checked one side and it seems fine/in place, but the sleeve-welds looked like s**t indeed and one of the sleeves seemed "tilted" a bit
i have them for about 10.000 km (used on track-road) and i also...
I have a group A exhaust and first it was with a decat, it was loud in the car, power wise nothing special...then i got a ph1 twin barrel cat (it had 140.000 km),
in my opinion:
sound wise outside - maybe few db quieter, especially on idle, inside - here is the difference it's much better, not...
