    Wifi Extender Needed

    The new kit Dan. If your using ethernet to link the original modem to the mesh then login to the menu of the modem to switch off the wifi in that. Usually something like 192.168.0.1 for the menu

    Wifi Extender Needed

    You create the mesh by connecting the units via ethernet/powerlines the latency and speed is exceptionally good. Not sure about connecting the units wirelessly but I suspect you'd be talking about a haircut on an already huge speed which is rarely used to capacity but I am not an expert. My...

    Wifi Extender Needed

    You want a wifi mesh not a wifi extender. We have TP link DECO with all units wired together across the house using powerline adapters. Works a treat.

    Help wanted near Crawley please. Clip diagnostic tool maybe?

    1 will be an injector, I did a video a while back on this. 2 and 3 would likely be a failed ABS sensor or potentially a crackers ABS ring as noted Check the steering wheel is straight when going stright. Tracking needs to be in order to also not cause ABS/ESP issues

    182 Clio with Megane II turbo motor - who's dunnit?

    Alex did one at AW motorworks. It was meg bottom end with 1*2 top end to keep the turbo elements more aligned with a standard turbo conversion but with the benefits of a 6 speed LSD.

    Graham's summer 172 cup track car

    @colesy god that's good to see, it desperately needed that sorted. Sounds better than ever with all the bits you've done. I do miss it that's for sure but glad you're using it and have big plans for it!

    Chris's 172 Cup Turbo

    Looking good sir! I didn't have any issues with temp in the turbo. IIRC, had a 10 row oil cooler which wasn't thermostatically controlled, 75 degree stat (although doesn't make difference once up to temp) and direzza rad. Mine had a megane headgasket which is meant to keep cylinder temperatures...

    197 steering wheel in a 182FF

    if do you do this you 100% need a 5mm thickness spacer. Looking back I wouldn't do it again, it's way beyond my tolerance for a safe mod these days. 29mm OD 20mm ID IIRC, 5mm thickness minimum. Ideally you would use a proper machined taper to spread the stress.

    Shmee in a Vee

    Got to have a great deal of respect for Tim’s reply. Takes a lot of time to read a thread and compose a down to earth post. It’s a shame people put on a different persona when posting on a forum (sure some smart aleck will disagree) but, whatever your view, this is an excellent addition to a...

    Cruise control on a RS 172 or a dCi (DIY)

    need to switch on in the ECU using clip if that ECU supports cruise. Not totally sure the 1.4 does but happy to be proved wrong. the 1.6 does support

    What benefit is there to being this negative, this kind of car culture is toxic. Good on him for being successful enough to be in a position to buy these cars.

    Headlight restoring?

    from a while ago now You need to seal them with some kind of ceramic coating or lacquer otherwise restoration will actually worsen the issue long term and after 12 months you'll be back in the same position. I know because I didn't seal mine....

    Cruise control on a RS 172 or a dCi (DIY)

    the normal position of the switch simply earths one of the ECU pins. If you had access to clip you’d be able to see the status in the functions menu

    Cruise control on a RS 172 or a dCi (DIY)

    Clear ECU codes too as playing around can trigger a code to stop cruise working

    Help Clio 172 Turbo Died

    V weird. You want consistency on the injector readings when stone cold, worth checking hot and cold. From memory the Megane injectors are a little less resistance than the clio ones.

    Three 5G Home Broadband

    Had their 4g product at the start of lockdown. Had to cancel it and replace with virgin media as it persistently went down with no explanation, no time for resolution and a complete absence of customer service. Speed was good when it worked. Colleague had it too and also had terrible outages.

    Home plating kit

    I used a company called TSR vapour blasting for all my plating. About half of the parts they tumbled/plated and the other half were soaked in brown vinegar with hours invested cleaning up on the wire-wheel. The results from the tumbled parts were incredible and whilst the wire wheel parts were...

    I would agree flood. In a previous life when I used to categorised cars for total loss, flood could be anyting from B to cat D (that's how long ago it was) unless it was an anticipated health risk and then B. A was full fire or life lost. I specifically remember a merc which was totally...

    Wheel Alignment - String Method

    I've had mixed experiences with string, sometimes spot on, othertimes a pain due to leveling of the setup, car and keeping the wheel clamped. For the time it takes on a car with minimal adjustment for me it's better to pay £35. Granted it adds up quickly if you like to tinker with the suspension...

    Help Clio 172 Turbo Died

    There's a fuse across the kill so the switch can be taken out but still allow the car to be locked on the remote. The link on it's own is a flawed design and requires a on-off-on dpdt switch to enable either "20a" remote locking or "cut off resistor" as without current flows directly from the...

    @colesy is now the lucky owner of this car. It's a great shame I didn't get to use the car to it's full potential, particularly on the ring like it was built for but life moves on and I'm very happy it's gone to a home which will drive it hard! Thank you to everyone who watched the build...

    Genuine racks are often cheaper than you think. On the BMW they are made by Thule and cheaper than Thule.
