Cheers. It's not just when going over bumps. When turning wheel on lock it makes it too.
Yeah seems like a bit I play in it.
What's that likely to be then and how much is it likely to set me back.
Looking for some help diagnosing a new noise!
I have sport lines on and have had the usual top mount knocking problem. The washers fix did seem to work however a similar noise has now started. Only really on passenger side and can be hear when going over speed bumps etc.
Not sure if it's...
Hey folks,
Had a decat on for a few hundred miles now and the emissions light has just come on.
I take it since it has stayed on, that once its on it stays on until its reset? If so, how do i reset it?
Also, what should i do about the light coming on? Do i need to get it checked out or is...
Cheers!
Its just a bloody money pit! The last month i have got new front brakes, decat then a wheel bearing went. So no plans at the moment.
But i did want to get a carbon fibre splitter and a retrimmed steering wheel. Think thats about as much as i want to do with it. Like folk have said...
I was just going to keep the standard ones but they need refurbed and they can't match the colour of the powder coat to the centre caps so decided to go with the turinis.
Mines pops and bangs when cold. i didnt want it too loud as i use it to get to work and am on the bypass for half the journey. it seems to be loudest between 3k-3.25k. after that it settles down.
Is yours quite loud then? With 2 big back boxes and a small centre box, minds sounds just nice. Not too loud but when you open it up its got a really nice throaty note :) Sounds better since i had the decat on i think.
I originally got cat back. Small centre box and the 2 back boxes. the cat kept blowing so just got him to put a decat pipe in. You can see pics of it in the clio media section.
Its on sportlines. Happy enough with the stance TBH. Not going to spend the money on coilovers.
This was the first opportunity i have had in over a year to give it a good going over! Would have liked to have clayed it first but didnt have that much time! It was clayed last year so its not...
Nice one! Any pics of yours?
Yeah he is a good guy. Meercat come highly recommended. Just got my decat done this week there from him as well (exhaust was done oct last year). Thats when he mentioned about getting photos done for his new website.
Thought I would post up pics of the decat I got fitted. Don't know if anyone else has this set up but emission light hasn't come on yet with 200 miles in.
It was Meercat exhausts that built it. Basically got them to base it on the RS192 system. Just took in pics of the rs192 setup. Just got a decat fitted to it there as the cat was causing me bother. Sounds really good. will need to take a video clip of it some time!
gave car a good clean, polish, egp, then wax. Put turinis on then took some snaps.
Used t cut metal polish to polish up tailpipes.
Place I got the exhaust is getting my car professionally photographed for their new website so thought I better make it presentable!
Thoughts, opinions...
Took car in to see about getting wheels refurbed. Hey said they couldn't garauntee that they could colour match the centre caps with the powder coat colour since the centre caps can't be powder coated.
What's other folks experiences of getting 182 wheels refurbed. Similar issues? Any way round it?
Car was in to have the cat sorted. The clips connecting the cat to the manifold were broken so new ones put on. Now there is what can only be described as a kind of raspy noise coming from that area on hard acceleration. Can't really hear it when revving when stationary. Don't know if it's just...
Car went back in to get the exhaust realigned as it was melting one of the plastic surrounds. So got them to fit some new carbon fibre ones. Really pleased with the exhaust.
