    Split flexi pipe in exhaust

    OK thanks mate, I'll take it from this that I shouldn't be bouncing off the limiter if I can help it

    Split flexi pipe in exhaust

    cheers si OK cheers, but what do you mean about a gasket and clamp? As far as I was aware all I needed was to get new flexis and weld them in? Edit: One more quick question - Am I doing damage to the car by driving it? It's got pretty bad now and I have been warned about a lack of back pressure?

    Split flexi pipe in exhaust

    I've got the flexis now and shown the car to the mechanic to see what he reckolns. He says that welding in new flexis is gonna be a bit of a bitch. Says its gonna require the subframe to be dropped out?? Is this the best way to get at the flexis? How long should I expect this job to take, don't...

    Split flexi pipe in exhaust

    cheers for the help simon. No-one in those threads actually mentions the correct size flexi pipe to get. Anyone know? It's getting really bad now, making some very strange noises, need to get this sorted ASAP...

    Split flexi pipe in exhaust

    About 3 weeks ago I got the clutch and gearbox replaced on the 200. As soon as I drove it away (and more noticeably when cold) there was a kind of vibration sound coming from behind the centre console. I went back to renault for them to have a look and they reckolned it was the exhaust shield...

    Ok... The 200T vs 200 comparison!!!!

    I thought one of the benefits of a dual clutch system was launch control didn't shag the clutch?

    Anyone for a laugh ;)

    Having kanye and kim as your parents is a golden ticket to popularity - they had to do something to make it a bit fairer on the other kids!

    2013 Fiesta ST

    frikking hell angel, the internet just slowed! Nice pics though. I haven't driven one, but I don't doubt its ability, from what I've read I guess I expect it to be pretty amazing. But then you remember the clio has a diffuser, brembos, 'proper' recaros, no fancy dashboard rubbish. It really...

    2013 Fiesta ST

    Autoexpress just rated the top 100 most fun cars on sale. The clio 200T came 40 somethingth, the fiesta ST came second. Says it all. However, the mk3 200 seems like an extremely similar car, bar the engine, to the ST. I don't see any benefit to getting an ST as a 200 owner. They both seem to be...

    LY R27 467 Track/Road Project

    You don't mean you want to get rid of the O.Z.'s right?! And that yellow cage is awsome. Looks like a great project

    Silverstone/Liquid yellow RS200

    Yeah, these are track cars not rally cars :D nice, wish I could afford coilovers ...Not that I'd have much of a clue about set up. I reckoln 20mm spacers would be good for you, with the more subtle colour it helps to go a 'bit' on the garish side. I reckoln, anyway... (although i guess if...

    Silverstone/Liquid yellow RS200

    Beautiful shots... Your car is exactly, bar the mudflaps and lack of spacers, how I want mine to look. What springs is it lowered on? TBH I reckoln when lowered they need spacers, they in the plans? Also, 18 with a silverstone - bossing life, man!

    What's this in the glovebox of my courtesy car?!

    Just went to the dealership to see how my car's getting on (It's basically worked out that I'm gonna get a new clutch and gearbox for free somehow) When I told the man his first question was 'are they still in there?!'. I think somebody wants his knickers back haha!

    What's this in the glovebox of my courtesy car?!

    'for sale: one pair of apparently slightly used knickers. Size 16. If larger girls are your thing these are ideal. If not, could use a clean.' I think so :P

    What's this in the glovebox of my courtesy car?!

    It seems somehow completely appropriate to find these in a french car! They were pretty big though... I kinda feel like I should leave a little gift in the glovebox too now.

    Opened the glove box to find this... :innocent:
