There are such things as simple claims, but yes they are definately the rare cases! I had a claim a few years back and did exactly the same thing with photos of the scene and paint arrows etc, just like that one.
After thinking the accident through and through I started to wonder whether I was...
Haha there really is loads round there!!
I also has a tussle on the dual carriageway between Brecon and the campsite with another blue Ph2. He had bigger balls/knew the road better/both of above then me though!! I backed off..... think it had white or yellow wheels of come sort and a big twin...
I love it. Saw a prototype testing in Nardo proving ground last month and it sounds epic. Gearchanges have a lovely little pop of overun noise in between like a race car..... Sooooo nice.
You drive past me flashing and giving me the thumbs up on friday (bit delayed I know)! I waved back in my Ph2 Iceberg 172. Was camping there for the weekend :D
There's loads of Clio Sport's in South Wales!!
Had them on for about 6 months or so. Then started to smear so went back to a standard set of Bosch.
Oh and Tesco only sell the 20" and 22" (nearest to 21") and the 22's worked fine, better sweep then standard 21's.
Fluid's full to the top, definately no pas leaks since I've pretty much changed everything on it over the last 9 months (high pressure pipe twice, pas pump and rack) all for other problems. Now this ones cropped up.
Officially the most unlucky 172 owner in the world......:(
Thats definately not what we're getting, I get all those noises too and just ignore them.
Ours (mine and Bill_s13) is only at standstill while turning the wheels from left to right, a big juddering coming through the steering wheel. Doesn't happen at all when the car is moving.
I'm getting this exact same problem now as of last night!!! And I know its the same as Bill's as I've witnessed his problem. My rack was changed about 9 months ago too!!!!! Bloody Clio's....
My ABS works when the light is off (about 50% of the time) and doesn't work when the light is on. ESP light is on 100% of time and doesn't work 100% of the time. Which is all correct.
Haha well I certainly won't be paying that!! Worst case I live with it (don't like ESP anyway), best case I buy a low mileage steering angle sensor for about £20 and set it up myself. Hopefully that should do the trick.
Yes I have had the wheel off recently actually, but the ESP and ABS lights were on long before I did that, and I think I set up the steering angle sensor correctly? Making sure the little yellow/black dot was correct and the other little pointer on the bottom right?
Just borrowed an Omiscan from work that seemed to work. It pulled down one DTC from the ABS module, steering angle sensor. So that explains it then hopefully.
Thanks for the help.
Thanks Henk, I appreciate that.
I have CANalyzer and a Kvaser Leaflight, would these work on the Clio to get the error codes straight from the CAN bus and/or ABS module?
Ok, will get it plugged in somewhere. I just don't like paying garages to do work thats all, especially when I thought the RS Tuner would be a fairly useful tool for reading off DTC's. It does seem a bit crude though as you say, especially when compared to the stuff I use at work where you get...
Certainly haven't got money to burn. Just replacing bits that I get recommended to replace on here. I don't see any reason why RS Tuner wouldn't give accurate DTC information, it simply reads the PCM like any other kit I guess. I managed to plug it in while the ABS light was on earlier, and I...
I've plugged in my RS Tuner to read off the error codes yes, but whenever I've done it, the ABS light hasn't been on so there wasn't any relevant error code. I have the RS Tuner and laptop in the car now so I can plug it in the next time the light is on. Hopefully it will show a DTC.
Thinking...
Ok I've searched a plenty with no luck. I've now replaced my ABS sensors, brake pedal switch (and adjusted it correctly) and my ABS rings are fine. The ABS light still comes on about 50% of the time, only going off after an ignition key off/on. What else could it possibly be?!!
I have this exact same problem on my passenger side. I have replaced both ball joints, top mounts, driveshafts and all engine mounts recently. The only things left are wishbone bushes and track rod ends?!
Strange, just like a knocking/clunking noise when lightly launching and lightly braking...
I actually find some buses are really fun to drive.... does that make me sad? Maybe its because its not my job anymore. Volvo B7 chassis's are awesome and you can throw them around a fair bit.
:cool:
Well this confused me too, why on earth would something else blow before the fuse, defeats the object of the fuse imo. I only visually checked it, so will put a new one in and try again.
Ok I've searched and given up. I changed my wheel to a Momo the other day, connected up the horn exactly how I thought it should be, and something shorted out somewhere, it didn't like it. Now my horn doesn't work. The fuse is still intact. I want to trace the wiring back through the column...
