[xcore]

You little pussy , be as defiant as you like, but you enjoyed the enjoyed the 2nd man working on the nuts.

I worked the nuts actually!

 

[DomP182]

Today - did a compression test

Tomorrow- check insurance policy and put a match to it

 

[DivideBYZero]

Rear seats out and custom carpet in:

 

[iMZee]

Changed all 4 pencil coils

 

[scotiamr2t]

Contemplated selling as i have an itch to build a classic mini.

 

[DivideBYZero]

KTR Platinum grooved front discs and DS2500 pads, along with KTR braided lines.

 

[Oggy997]

I changed the 'pads' on a friend's MiTo.
Only, she never mentioned she might need discs....

 

[JamesBryan]

Needs a caliper rebuild by the looks of it too.

Those dust seals will have let all sorts of crap in.

 

[Oggy997]

It looks like it's been binding for some time as the pads are worn quite unevenly.

 

[DomP182]

New cup shocks, Grams springs and Febi top mounts to replace what must have been the original shocks on my 02 Flamer

1st wash after three weeks of ownership. I had picked up a lot of tar at some point in the last couple of weeks, probably on a 4 hour motorway trip to Luton. I didn't have any tar remover, but managed to get some of it off with clay and IPA. Priority was to get it some protection on as it's used daily and didn't have anything up to that point. Used Fusso Softt 99, which is quite durable, will see how it holds up to the country road grime. Paint correction would definitely improved the finish, but that can wait until Spring. Headlights are starting to haze and there's a few other minor misc things to sort, but I'm just enjoying driving it.

All washed and waxed ready for the week ahead.

 

[Rubicon_]

Bought another one ?

 

[DivideBYZero]

Oil and filter change. Always feels good to have fresh oil.

 

[DanSej6]

OSF wheel bearing and aerial base. Can just about get more than 1.5 radio stations now. Still crap quality of reception though!

 

[JamesBryan]

Fitted the rear BC's on the weekend, too cold and bored to fit the fronts ?

The Whiteline ARB (bit of bent railing @bloke ?) that has been on for 5 years was fun to remove, bolts so rusty that all 4 on the u-bolts sheared off ?

At least the rear sits ok.

Looks nice on the 2118's. How come you have removed the rear ARB?

To fit the rear coilovers, will get new bolts for it and refit eventually.

 

[Ben Cook]

Black roof wrap.

Black roof wrap.

Looks shite.

Found the boot is refusing to lock. I'm hoping it is just because of the cold

 

[Gt Lad]

Running with ds2500 but when they die will replace with Rc6 CL

I've also had it where one of the wires inside had broken off. Probably from people slamming it ?

Someone probably sneezed too hard near the wiring, it's a Renault mate[emoji23]

Yesterday I refitted my dash top and interior sticky plastics after removing the vile sticky stuff and treating with Auto Finesse Revive, I also replaced my lacquer peeled drivers door handle.

Today I picked up a set of pretty curbed 172 alloys with two near new Rainsports and two jinyu budgets for £50, only really wanted the Rainsports but hoped some wheels might be better than mine but they weren't.

Gave it a quick wash, looks quite tidy when washed even with it's faded, scratched bonnet and dented rear quarter.

 

[letsturboit]

Garaged it for the foreseeable future. With 9 months MOT left

I'm a kangoo owner now. ?

 

[Clio_fool]

Had the interior of the 1.2 valeted. Good bye odour of old lady and smoke.

 

[car.crash]

Black mirror covers.

 

[Oggy997]

I removed a stray bit of foam from the blower motor / squirrel cage on the 987.
It was make a horrendous noise, one I wouldn't be able to put up with at 3am on my way to work in the morning.

 

[Gt Lad]

Fun fun fun

 

[jonno_c]

Getting her washed and ready for sale.

 

[jonno_c]

[JamesBryan]

Fitted a stud kit.

Should have done it years ago.

 

[welshname]

Finally replaced the high level brake light that hasn't worked since I got the car.

 

[Gt Lad]

Refitted the Whiteline bar after some bolts shearing when removing last month.

Managed to find some u bolts that fit, a bit thicker than standard.

I just did mine in the car on the Pug, lots of wearing working through about a 3" gap!

I never realised how tiny the clio alternator is compared though, might be a nice lightweight upgrade...
