    Noise when i let off the throttle?

    Had a play around & doesn't seem to be any movement in the stabilizer bar, and the noise i got sounded like it came from much lower/behind gearbox Hasn't been making the noise recently, put it down to using the car more over the holidays... Happy new year everyone :)

    Noise when i let off the throttle?

    Where abouts is the top stabiliser bar? Bare in mind it never makes the noise underbraking or going over bumps, its strictly when im in a low gear & the car stops coasting/engine braking starts Yeah it really does sound like this kind of area in general, its not a very deep bassy knock so it...

    Noise when i let off the throttle?

    yeah i don't think its a link arm as i've recently done lots of work in that area & everything was fine, its more a gearbox/link or clutch noise As soon as the car stops coasting & the gear engages it bangs/knocks, it's inaudible with the radio noise though, and only done it recently, could...

    Noise when i let off the throttle?

    If im driving in gear and then take my foot off the accelerator, when the car stops coasting and 'engages', when it starts engine braking i think... it makes a clonk/tap noise, mostly in 2nd/3rd I don't think its much to worry about as i usually keep accelerating, or brake/dip the clutch, and...

    Got some money to spend....

    if id done all of that, taking into account how little gains youll get from doing anything else i'd spend the rest on a european holiday hitting the alps in your car, the money will go on ferries, hotels, petrol & food easily. and a nice xmas pressie for the missus ;)

    197: Earthing Points?

    the speakers fit right onto the factory slot, i did get the feeling using nylon screws might solve the problem, but the metal speaker will still touch metal on the car which is likely to be the underlying cause, that or faulty batch of speakers

    I want some bass

    yeah i got this years kappa comps on the front aswell, really amazing speakers, although i will have had to have new tweeters twice in total, maybe my fault as i didnt use the xover at first & just used the cars factory tweeter wire, it started crackling so then got it swapped over, then the...

    197: Earthing Points?

    nope, the standard plastic renault speakers work fine in the back, but a pair of infinity speakers send it all a bit nuts, sparks & melting tweeters, it seems to be some kind of metal on metal connection causing it as when fitting the speaker a spark jumps between speaker & chassis, it could be...

    197: Earthing Points?

    Anyone know where all the earthing points are on the 197? I seem to have some kind of electrical issue that effects the rear speakers, the only thing i can think it is is a bad earth connection somewhere? Thanks!

    I want some bass

    Which infinity comps did you go for? Kappa? I installed the tweets on the trim that goes on the back of the door mirrors, excellent place for them sound wise, then managed to blow one of them even using the xover & now have the cheaper jbl tweets until the kappas come back in stock. I put...
