It does it from low down, all the way to 7k. Sounds rotational.

On the mount? I believe so. Is it possible to have the mount/gearbox slightly out of position or is that a hard thing to manage?

After my car accident, we repaired it and got it back on the road. Drove it round for a few days and this noise started to occur. 3 days later, the circlip popped off my drive-shaft and required a new one. I hoped this would fix the noise. Got it back from the garage today, and it hasn't - it's...

Just a standard system at the moment.

I can't actually find any decat's! Only ones are stainless steel and cost the same as a non-OE cat!

Oh, and thanks for the advice everyone :) I will stick with a cat!

What is it?! Will it fit my 172 in a straight forward way? Very interested if so!

Hi 172 cup, with a standard back box, no middle box, and a knackered cat. Looking at options to swap the cat out. Don't want to spend a fortune, and probably won't be doing any huge mods in the future. I have a friendly MOT guy who would ignore my de-cat when the time comes. If I get a...

If you're handy, you can fit it all yourself. So it's just the price of the parts. But, you need to find out if the wings can be fitted without the side skirts. By far the quickest and cheapest option is to get a replacement bumper in silver for your car, so it's back on the road quickly...

I don't have much to spend, but I want a head unit that will allow me to use the controls behind the steering wheel. Needs to play MP3 CD's or have an SD card slot. Any recommendations? How hard to come by are the ones that work with the controls. Thanks.

Could anyone help me with a few measurements for repairing the front end of my car after an accident? The frame behind the wings has bent slightly, and I could really do with the following measurments from an undamaged Clio. Distance vertically between the nut on the suspension strut and the...

(What are they worth?)

Hi Aaron - I think it's going to be worth repairing, I have managed to source all the parts apart from a bonnet. Thanks for your interest however :)

Thanks guys. Thomas - yes those are the exact ones I was looking at. Nice one. My current ones are badly aged anyway, so that's one good thing. Just heard that the bonnet is now unavailable - damaged in a move unfortunately. So if anyone hears of a bonnet in Mondial blue going, please let me know.

Yeah, but I hope this will stop me from taking things so personal when behind the wheel ;)

Got a bonnet for £30 and a bumper for £50. Not looking too bad. The windscreen is my fault - I drove for a mile and the bloody bonnet flew up and cracked it :( Looks like this will be the most expensive repair as well.

Well, it might not be the WHOLE story, but fair to say we were both to blame as I said. Luckily there is an independent witness who saw him slam on for no reason, so hopefully I won't be paying for his repair work too. Beasley - the slam panel is entirely contorted, and a replacement seems to...

I've had a good look, all the chassis seems fine - just the front slam panel that's knackered. The beam(?) that runs across the front is ever so slightly pushed back in the middle, but underneath is all good and the structure behind the wings is all fine too.

I had overtaken a guy a little earlier, he didn't like it - overtook me in a crazy fashion, then a little further up the road he slammed on. My fault for pissing him off, his fault for taking it too far. Gutted :(

Interesting to note, the airbag didn't go off!

So gutted that this is the reason for my first post! :( :( Crashed this morning, bumper, lights, slam panel, bonnet and windscreen all buggered. Managed to drive home (40 minutes) with no problems thankfully, and have just been looking around for the best option for going forward. No idea how...
