what discs do you recommend to use with OEM rear discs, i've got ds2500+brembo Max upfront and will only be using T450 for fast road and occassional track days.

Ajr- any idea about the pitting? it was uneven across both pads on one wheel (didnt check other wheel) quite rough, should the pads be smooth across their entire surface?

re: whistle from mirror, the whistling is caused by the airflow through the gap between the mirror body (red bit) and mirror plate (the black bit attached to the car (the gap that widens when u fold the mirror) On mine its defo this part as when i put my finger over the gap the whistling stops...

did everyone else have this? does this mean the valve only fully opens at 5k and as such its removal has spread the torque around the rev range more? or am i talking ballacks?

cheers all. didnt file pads as they were loose enough, and cleaned the caliper locaters up and wiped off any grease from back of pads ( #-o ), binding noise not evident anymore =D> . been out for a spin and done some hard braking, the car was ppulling to one side loads for a while and then it...

Just inspected the pads and they are not tight, snug at most, still file them? the other thing is that the pads show signs of pitting on the disc contact surface, is this normal? or will this go when they are fully bedded in? cheers

seen rear mounts for £10 + delivery on ebay but not sure on their quality.

cheers for clearing that up.

isnt greasing the back of pads the same as greasing the carrier/, the pads have only been in for 150miles and i can here them slightly squeaking (rubbing) when i'm off the brakes. should i take the pads out and grease the carriers then? cheers Ajr. edit - and clean the back of the pads of any...

Hope you guys can help me :D Question 1 I'm thinking about replacing the exhaust on T450, would you recommend replacing the rear and centre exhaust mounts as well, (i've/shes done 22k).? also whats this exhaust mod i've heard about concerning hosepipe/sockets/copper pipe etc? Question 2 i'm...

Cheapest place to buy? cheers in advance.

rear washer and wipe work, front washer and computer work. on intermittant = nothing on '1' wiper works when stalk intermittant speed on slowest setting. on '2' wiper works but on slow wipe (ie setting '1' on standard stalk). this happens on both intermittant stalks that i have bought, from...

Is there a Haynes manual for the 182? searched ebay and google and cant find one, i'm sure you guys will know. cheers

I tried changing the standard stalk 2 years ago but it didnt work (thought it was the new stalk) finally bought another stalk and fitted this morning, still doesnt work! i'm guessing that my trophy has slightly different wiring to all of the other Trophys. anyone else had problems with the...

how much is the rs tuning dremap then, and why do you say not to bother with exhaust (theres nothing wrong with mine at the moment, but will replace when its rusted through). cheers

I'm looking at spending no more than a grand on some performance upgrades on the Trophy. looking at the Morego (without cams) but not sure. Does a custom remap, filter and exhaust offer more value for money and if so who and where do you recommend? cheers.

Just got an e-mail from the 'clone' 450 and he made amistake, its actually 480. :D makes me feel better,

still own it, and i just checked and its still on my drive :D . Ie-mailed the other one and asked if it was defo 450. this has come up before on another number didnt it. Renault cheating the public..boo

About time I changed the orange indicators, but cant work out the code from the phillips web site, anyone remember what the correct code is...........PY21W or WY21W? cheer.

yeah the temp gauge gauge, havent had the engine washed but it did stall coming off the motorway a few weeks after a 120mile drive to heathrow when there was really heavy rain. (actually parked near another trophy at the airport:T??PHY)

OK just seen another post about this problem, looks like its just the sensor.

Why does my oil gauge go from half way (normal when hot) down to zero again and vice versa, does it intermittantly but got me worried. The oil light came on the other day and I topped it up a bit, dipstick shows that its half way between min and max. I take it the gauge is showing oil...

Yeah the brake and throttle peds are toatally diff heights. cheers

1 for me as well :wink:

I've started to learn this technique on downshifts blah blah, i can blip the throttle in my Saxo quite easily but not in the Trophy, is this beacause:- A - the pedals are to far apart B - i'm not pressing the brake pedal in enough. C - my feet to small? pleae help a wannaby track star!
