Just as StevieH said don't break there is always spare engines going on CS forum if not call clio spares or local scrappy then get someone who can remove and fit engine on the quiet your get a better deal. Would be worth the effort while engine is out to stick cam belt on and new clutch if not...

Sounds to me like a faulty TDC sensor they have upgraded them recently with a new wiring loom plug you just cut old one off remove the 2 bolts then resolder new plug on and bolt on sensor. It on the top of the gearbox if you take out the air box pipe to throttle body you will see it. It looks...

I have to admit im not a lover of the corsa the handling isnt brill but better on coilovers. I duno what it is about the matt black but it goes bloody well and the stripped interior along with buckets n harnesses goes well too. He was lucky with the engine too whole lot as it was stripped from...

Thats a nice looking Cup there :)

Nice pic's has your Super Touring got the v6 engine or the early 2.0ltr ? Im guessing the corsa dont have the redtop lump. Those corsa's are good with a redtop my mate just fitted one and its bloody quick car and its just been sprayed matt black...

Nice i was waiting for someone to beat my snow pic, It didn't take long.

Alrite Nick, its given me a day off work as nothing can get in or out nor can we get parts. I just come back from sledding and its up to my knees all round me so the Trophy is a bit out of its depth.

Hello m8 is it you who has the Vectra Super Touring ? if so would be nice to see some pic's of that next to the Trophy im quite a fan of the Super Touring just never got around to getting one myself.

[attachment=0:3hy8jsrx]Trophy1.jpg[/attachment:3hy8jsrx] Just thought i would upload the picture of how i found my Trophy this morning :D

Iv had previous dealings with Scorpion and i have to say there customer service is excellent i had the same thing on a weld that had blown on my center section on previous car it was found and reported on my MOT. The best bit of all was they then turned round to me said were send a new one out...

Just an update managed to get the bolt out with a bit of heat to the hub in situ. New bolts have been ordered with nuts as there stress bolts with fine thread at a cost of £14 from renault which aint too bad considering to order them in else where would have cost a lot more. The bolts are 10.9...

Thats the one they come as a kit however i managed to get an aftermarket kit with everything and its an exact fit for £6 so worth looking round

Hi Nick i did think about taking the hub off and trying a vice or i do have a press at work but if i did any damage would need another bolt to replace with hence the question. From what ive been looking at i think the stress limit is 10.9 and not sure on the number 8 in the middle but it looks...

Hi all i went to replace my front lower ball joints this weekend i managed to do the one that was making a noise however the other one has the locking bolt seized in the hub so im going to take it to work and heat it up see if i can get it removed that way. If worst comes to worse i will have to...

If you filled up the cooling system with antifreeze there will be a stain somewhere so take a look underneath for split pipes stains anything thats near a coolant hose or cooling system also check clamps make sure no leaks around fixings. If you cant find a leak fill the system with water and...

Your answer to the question is on the bottom of this page: http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Motoring/Ow ... /DG_069671 As for if your insurance covers you or not ring them before hand to check if your covered to drive to the MOT bay, if not then get in contact with the MOT testers they may have a...

Front O2 sensor is located underside in the 4-2-1 system before the cat so will need jacking its a common problem had mine done recently. Just a tip if it wont undo easy be careful as some strip threads so need tapping or some leave threads in so needs cleaning up. Mine came undone fine. As for...

Integra Type-R DC5 for that kind of money depends on what your really looking for. The M5 always reminds me of a family car and in matt black will be hard to get a non marked one, good car though only problem is everything is so bloody tight on BMW's and they seem to rust underneath pretty...

Be careful to order the right ones there not standard as the standard ones are longer these i think are from the clio v6 due to the spoiler and the roof.

Ok had a quick look at the wiring diagram fuses to check would be under bonnet F11 in the main fuse box this also controls R/H headlight main beam. Inside the car check fuses F34 other than that the rest would clash with other components. Both these fuses go to different relays so not...

Thanks for the second link helps alot. Rite the resistor pack is a set of small resistors these can be replaced but are fiddly and require a small tipped soldering iron. As for the problem that the other person had his was a 30 amp fuse did you check this fuse was not blown? I will have a look...

Ok have you tried step 3? its the button on the speed dials. Hold that down before starting the engine the zero's should show if not best bet is to speak to renault.

Thanks sideways danny btw how do you access fastchips downloads?

Do you have a link to your original post?

Ok so where am i going wrong would be nice to know. As for the locking of the crank i had to just check this its done by a 8mm slot in the crank throught the block and the crank pulley does have a key on the crank nose it aligns up with the case moldings. The cams are done from the back of the...

Ok looks as though we need a bit more information. 1) Does it show 'OIL OK' when starting the engine? 2) Have you got cruise control on? 3) Before starting engine with ignition on press the button next to the Trip Computer screen then start engine. Does it now show the bars i.e. 'OOOOO_ ' ...

Would that be by any chance the DIY springs? Or maybe you miss the extra 0 off the mm

In all fairness its something different, i bet you wouldn't look at it if it was just a tuned vtec system in there. Btw is this really a F4R engine? Only it states different here for a Proton S2000 http://www.memuk.com/super2000homepage.html

HI i just thought i would add this link may help you understand corner weights. http://grassrootsmotorsports.com/articl ... r-weights/ In all fairness i cant see much of an adjustment to corner weights on a standard Trophy however if you had coilovers would be an idea to get it checked, also at...

I thought it would be. Just out of interest was it a rubber 'o' ring seal or a gasket?
