Sadly I've got a bit of lacquer peel appearing in places on my flame red, is that a respray job or can it be halted in anyway? If I can justify it a full respray might be on the cards though I reckon.
I've fitted a volantech steering wheel and their airbag resistors which were very loose so I wrapped them in insulation tape to keep them in. I'm getting sporadic airbag and SERV light popping up, is this likely just because of the poor fitting resistors?
Does anyone know where I can get a Renaultsport sticker similar to the ones on a Sabelt/Sparco to go on my Volantech wheel? Ideally one with letters cut individually rather than on a clear background. Cheers!
People with volantech panels, out of curiosity what colours have have you gone for? I assume they are always laid out horn at top then cc on the lower two on 6 button panels.
So after spending ages searching for a ktec resonated centre section to replace the 'drone pipe' I recently decided I needed a JMRS induction kit.....I'm back to where I started!!🤦♂️
Does anyone else find them intolerably droney but only from 3rd upwards? Mine is making an almost metallic...
I'm still thinking of changing the steering wheel in my 172 for something smaller, currently looking at a Volantech Uno has anyone fitted one or seen one in the flesh?
No sure what section to put this in but while cleaning the tracks on my throttle pedal I took apart the mechanism. There is a sprung piece that causes the extra 'click' you get at full throttle which got me wondering what the purpose is of this? Answers44 on a postcard.
I bought an secondhand rstuner from someone on here quite a while back and still not used it. Before I buy the unlock code how can I find out if it is already unlocked?
I've had this problem before and thought I'd sorted it but lately my car is going into limp mode until I turn it off and back on again. I've gone through the entire fuse box cleaning all plugs etc and checked the throttle pedal plug but still not sorted it. I've got a spare pedal so might try...
Has anyone tried the cheap washer blanks being sold on Ebay? Not the BTT ones, these are only £20 but look like they would need a bit of cleaning up before painting...
Has anyone heard of or use Autoglanz products? I've just realised they are based 2 minutes down the road from me so ideal to grab stuff as I need it without paying postage.
This crap British weather has left me looking at smaller steering wheel options for my 172, I like the look of the RS Sabelt and Sparco wheels but I'm concerned the suede type finish will fair really badly even with my occasional use. I've got cruise control and speed limiter so would want to...
Nice day so I thought I'd perform the simple task of fitting the brass bushes from @plees . The heatshield pretty much fell apart so that but was easy but getting the selector to pass through the brass bushes is another thing all together. It simply will not go thorough nor can I get the bushes...
My original Air filter box is a bit shabby which has got me thinking I absolutely need a JMRS induction hose hand filter, is it going to make much of a difference to the induction sound on a 172?
I've been thinking of having my flame red 172 tidied up had a quote of £500 to have my front bumper, bonnet and wings as well as the cup spoiler resprayed. Does this sound a realistic amount for this kind of work?
The leak from my gear box selector seal has become ridiculous, I cant decide whether to buy a good secondhand box and swap it, get it out and repaired or wait for it to go pop. The latter will take a long time as I barely drive it but the trails it is leaving on my drive is getting annoying.
As...
I know, I know, everyones going to say but why did you sell a perfectly good cat and replace it with this shite but I want to highlight the poor quality of BM Catalysts. This is the replacement for one which had the same issue as well as weld splatter in the lambda thread which destroyed a...
I bought this cat last night for my 02 172 but they have cancelled it saying is not legal on an 02 plate. It has the exact same part number as all the other BM Catalysts cats except being a fair bit cheaper.
The only thing I can think that would be incorrect is it only having a post cat lambda...
My screwfix torque wrench has a pretty inaccurate setting gauge thingy on it so is in need of replacement, I've done a search which looks like I wont go far wrong with a Halfords 1/2" advanced. Before I buy one has opinion changed and any idea how I can get a discount card?
Anyone doing inner tie rods, i found the 28-35mm slip on tool to remove and replace them at a pretty good price compared to Ebay and Amazon.
