    Can anyone remap the kangaroo'ing out ?

    We went down the flastchip remap route and never really noticed any difference. Taking the sprintbooster off actually helped as this seem to make the kangarooing more noticable. We sold the car earlier in the year because of this - my wife could just not get on with it She's much happier with...

    FastChip/RSTuner help

    Can anyone remap the kangaroo'ing out ?

    Wife tells me she is no longer in love with Clio because of this and is hinting at wanting rid. We've had the car nearly two years and its not time to sell it yet !! I have to agree with her though it is damn annoying and rather than just at cold start up it seems to be becoming more normal...

    What got stuck in the tyre ?

    Wifey's car got a puncture on dual carriage way - almost instant deflation, and damage !! What do you reckon caused that - she says she didnt see anything, but that probably because she was caning it at the time :D

    Wifes F1 gets the treatment

    As mentioned above - pop the side repeater off with a little screw driver from underneath, the bullets them slide to the rear of the car and come off. It does take a bit of faffing around - i removed them twice and it was no easier the second time round - it initially feels like the whole...

    We had this problem - exactly as you describe plus going into limp mode and same PO code as mentioned. Replacing coil packs didnt cure ours - last thing we tried which we 'think' cured it was front lambda sensor. It seems this error code covers a wide range of problems that have been fixed by...
