So I've read online that you should use Red rubber grease to grease the slider pins on the rear calipers, however I cannot get hold of it until Monday and it needs to be done today :( Ive heard that I should not use Copper Grease, but some say I can use Moly Grease or a silicone based grease...

So after working out what was wrong with my suspension and what was causing the knock, I found it to be the RH Top mount, but I'm going to be changing them both anyway for the sakes of it, is it a particularly hard job? Seen a few posts about removing the whole strut from the car and that seems...

Another small thing I made for the car whilst at work today, didn’t like the sticker on the inside of the fuel cap, so just made a new one up. I like it a lot better than the old one :)

New one looks like this

ive gone to change my tie rod ends, and the old one seems to be different to the new one, I’m not sure if the washer was supposed to stay in the upright, or if the new part is wrong.

Okay so I screwed up, Whilst stripping my calipers today I was using an airline and a block of wood to remove the pistons, I did the first caliper fine and they all popped out nicely, but the second one I obviously hadn't positioned the wood correctly so one piston just came out and now...

Whenever I'm driving at a low speed, probably under 20mph I can hear a slight knocking from the front end of the car, Specifically the Front right I think? I can also sort of feel it in the accelerator pedal whenever it knocks, this likely to be suspension related or is there something else...

So I've been pulling apart/cleaning/repainting the megane engine that is soon to go into my Clio, when I bought the engine it had been standing a while and despite the inlet and exhaust ports being covered whilst it stood, I took the exhaust manifold off today and noticed that on the tops of the...

So I went to remove the rocket cover yesterday on my Meg engine to get it powdercoated, and see that the bolts seem to line up with the camshaft’s, are the cams held in place by the rocker cover and will removing it fuck me over? Also seen that there’s no gasket on the rocker cover and it is...

I've bought a Direnza Intercooler for the Megane 225 to do my conversion, and I've seen several people say that the intercooler needs modifying to fit onto the clio? True or not? Also I want to move my expansion tank and change it for the 182 bottle, what size silicone hoses do I need to do this...

Brilliant I think I’m all sorted now mate nearly time to do it!

So at the end of the month I'll be under taking a megane conversion myself with the help of a few friends and before I get started I just want to make sure I've got everything ready So far I have; -Gearbox Oil 75w/80 -Engine oil 5w/40 -Oil filter -Intercooler -Megane engine and gearbox -Loom...

Hi Guys :) So I got some of the rear light surrounds from streamline carbon for Christmas and I’m having trouble fitting them (sounds odd IK) but the bottom two holes on the bottom of the surround seem too large for the original bolt and washer to do anything (the top hole is fine) but because...

hi guys, Got a small squeak coming from the engine on idle and at low speeds, it’s not massively loud or very noticeable only with the windows down. Any ideas what it could be? Possibly belts or something else? Thanks

so today I got in my car, didn't pull the handle any harder than usual and the whole thing came off in my hand (quite amusing at the time) so I pushed it back in, and now I can't get it to come out again, any reason why it would have just popped out like that? Slightly worried me as I don't...

So this has been bugging me a while and finally found replacement stickers for the door trim, but I can see that the old sticker wraps under neath the door and window rubbers when applied, does anyone know how to get the rubbers off? Thanks :)

Update : Yesterday I Fitted a scorpion Non Res decat exhaust system to the car. Has made all the difference! Love the sound it makes, apart from the drone at 70 is going to take some getting used to..

Yeah no more of the interior is going Yellow Well apart from the Renault sport mats when they arrive. And I'm gonna do subtle bits under the engine bay with blue silicone hoses and some Carbon but I won't go overboard, been there done that with previous cars Hoping to keep it mainly standard and...
