For the past few weeks when up to temp (but not always) and idling at some traffic lights etc it drops quite low, sometimes so its only JUST hanging on and sometimes it'll just cut out. It also does it worse when manouvering at low speed which I guess is the extra load the PAS system is...

Saw you in Norwich a couple of weeks back and Yarmouth sunday evening! On here??

Ok, since changing the steering column a few weeks back (which it didnt need in the end!) the key hasnt quite been behaving correctly. Basically it doesnt seem to unlock when pushing the key button, but after driving, and getting out, it'll lock most of the time. So I have to unlock it...

I was driving past a garage I pass almost every day, and noticed a clean looking silver Ph1 had appeared on the forecourt so I stopped and asked the dealer about it. Turns out its got a genuine 27k miles and is in mint condition and all original bar some springs (sensible drop, nothing silly)...

Not seen this posted up on here yet.....If you haven't heard anything about it, its a concept car built to celebrate Aston's Centenary year. Also I have a particular interest as I had a part in making some of it :approve:

So from what I've read the UJ (universal joint) is quite a common thing to get some play/slack in it causing the steering to be a bit unresponsive upon initial transition from left to right. I think I now have this problem. Everyone seems to only ever mention the UJ at the bottom of the column...

I'm pretty happy with how the Monaco is sitting now, keeping it pretty simple :) The colour definately comes alive with a good polish and some sun, agree? ;) She's now sporting a full set of AD08's too :) (not shown) I personally think it looks a tad lower than most 1*2's running Sportlines...

Parked next to me when I came out!

Had my tracking and camber setup on Monday ready for a track evening, it handled perfectly and tracked perfectly on and off throttle and when braking. All evening it was fine, even braking from 110+mph, didnt once squirm badly or kick the rear out.... Now suddenly after refitting the front...

Young lady driver, anyone here? :)

Just been round Snetterton this evening, had an awesome time on track :) But, Ive noticed I'm getting some serious wear on the outside edges, even the top of the sidewall tbh. Now I know Snetterton is a fast circuit and can be hard on the N/S front tyre, especially when carrying alot of speed...

Fair few clios on track this evening, mainly 1*2's but a couple of 200's too. Unfortunately didnt get to speak to any of them but had a play on track :)

Anyone here? had a stealth rear box fitted (albeit a little low) lol

Well, 1/2 of them!! :S Been spending the day fitting the new Koni's, solid top mounts, ARB bushes and wishbones today :) Did the fronts first, all went well until I moved onto the rears, only to find I dont have all the washers etc required :( (After looking at other threads regarding the...

As above, thinking about getting a set of PMS top mounts but cant stretch to the strut brace yet but need to make sure I fit them in the right place so I can add one later if I want to ;) So would need to borrow one to offer it all up!

I noticed my driver's side rear shock had blown about 3months back, oil everywhere, so bought a new pair of cup shocks from an ebay shop (genuine Renault parts). Upon having the car up on the ramps today to do the rack bushes I noticed the same side shock has once again blown, oil all over it...

Spent a little time on Friday giving me headlights the once over, as they were getting pretty grotty and "cloudy", so here's a few pics :) Very happy with the results. Before: After:

In Norwich that is, someone here? looked nice dropped on coilies I should think :)

Anyone here? we both looked over at the same time lol :)

I noticed my drivers side xenon comes on but then dims to a dull pinky colour yesterday, it also flickered a couple of times. is this likely to just be the bulb? or the ballast or something else?

Was out for a bit of drive when I went down some back roads (you can just make it out lol) and took a few phone pics :approve:

Ive noticed my rad fan will randomly come on say every 5mins or so and run for about a 1 minute.....Funny thing is, is it still does this in the current weather conditions. I started it up earlier in -5c and idled for a few minutes when suddenly the fan fired up much to my surprise (way before...

So I bit the bullet and bought a new RS Tuner to avoid having any potential problems with a used one, and at the 1st step its not currently doing as it should..... I sent Henk an email explaining whats happening and am awaiting a reply, I assume he may take a day or 2 which is a bummer as I...

Anyone here? Saw them parked up at the Charity Race Experience day :)

Basically a month or so ago, I replaced my track rods, track rod ends, both bottom ball joints and had the tracking set up to parallel toe, and 1.5 degs negative camber, by a local pretty renowned company ;) Upon leaving the place (no it wasnt a kwik fit etc) I noticed at motorway speeds it was...

Anyone here? I came past you Tuesday afternoon :)

Ok, so the plan was to replace the track rods, track rod ends and wishbones today so got all the parts Friday and cracked on this morning..... First started the drivers side.....undid the TRE, undid the rod on the rack end with a 32mm spanner :) Next, undid the anti roll bar link on the...

Basically I've got the (fairly common it seems) clicking noise coming from my steering when manouvering at low speed and has seemed to have gone a bit vague and wanders around a bit, especially when accelerating quite hard. Its been like it a couple of months now but SEEMS to be getting worse...

Spotted quite a few around last night, 3 of which were together....an inferno, rb and another blue one, I think! Must be someone here? :)
