    Bent 8 valves, not the best day!

    So, it turns out the Clio wouldn't fire up because Ive bent 8 valves due to a belt slip (or at least it looks like a belt slip) My mechanic is on the job and starting to get things in motion. He's trying to do the job as cheap as possible for me so wanted to ask around at what the going rate...

    Front Grille Removal

    Hey up fellas! Ive parted with some of the queens greatest pound coins and purchased some Gtechniq C4 Permanent Trim Restorer after reading the reviews of it. I thought it might be easier to remove the front grille and do it indoors rather than doing it on the driveway so my question is...

    Cam/Aux Belt Replacement

    It appears my Aux belt is due to be changed and Cambelt is due next year so it makes sense to do it all at one in my opinion. Is this everything I need? Aux Belt...

    Destructive Misfire

    After numerous changed parts (plugs, leads, coil pack, CAT) the T is still throwing up 'Destructive Misfire'. It runs fine under load now that 2 injectors have been replaced (Number 1 & 3 as instructed by the code reader) but has a rough idle. Any ideas? Only had the car since September but...

Thanks in...

    Off to view my first Trophy today

    After a couple of weeks of searching online for a Trophy im going to see my first one today, number 113. Seems a well kept car going off the description, mileage is higher than what id ideally want at 123,000 but a lot seem to be around that. All being well there will be a deposit going down :)
