I just opted for brand new cup shocks, top mounts and grams springs (to be fitted in the next few months). Parts cost £400. I don’t feel like paying 1k as I am not taking the car to a track. To be fair, I’ve heard too many complains of people buying cheap coilovers and having issues such as...

Did you fit this to the standard manifold? The end that fits the manifold seems weird or is it just me? Did it fit ok without any issues? I like a cheap deal Cheers

https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F153195784626 Saw this thing on eBay.. Has anyone seen it? Seems like there is a silencer too. £200 very cheap, but note sure if cheerful.. Thanks

Cheers, gents. Took it to a local garage and got them off for £30. Now will burn those nuts in a satanic ritual and order new ones from eBay.

The bloody thing is absolutely screwed. Does anyone know how to find the ID no. for my locking wheel nut? I’ve got a week off and can’t do jack all because of this stupid nut. See photos.

I think I have found the part --> https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FOR-CLIO-197-MEGANE-SPORT-225-R26-SUSPENSION-LINK-ROD-ARM-BALL-JOINT-8200686016/261692827303?hash=item3cee1ba6a7%3Ag%3AXWoAAOSwUaJZnt-1&_sacat=0&_nkw=8200686016&_from=R40&rt=nc&_trksid=m570.l1313

Hi all I had an advisory on my MOT saying "Nearside Front Suspension component ball joint dust cover severely deteriorated panhard rod". Took the wheel off and had a look around and saw this part - please see the photos. Is this the part they are talking about? This was the only one with...

I have 2x mounts - torque arm Bush and the lower engine mount (dog bone), I have been driving with them for about 8 months now and I still get the vibrations, but only when on idle. Saying that, idle vibrations are bloody annoying as hell! Feels like I am driving an 80s Ford Transiy. My...

SOLVED: my battery was dead. I changed it and now she fires up without any issues.

Sorry to bring an old thread back up, but I am having a similar issue. When I try to start the car, I only get a clicking noise and steering not locked message. I thinking two things - starter dead or battery; I am not sure which...

So just to clarify, this exhaust will have to be cut down in order to fit the cat on the standard manifold? :think: Thanks

Same, I am poor as f*** at the moment. To be honest, been for a while now. Hence, I research the porkies out of cheap stuff.

I was considering them too. They are definitely very cheap! I literally just posted about these in another thread! This is what they said: KTR Coilovers to be a direct competitor of the B14 coilovers by Bilstein and they share many characteristics, including their spring rates. They are...

Just on that, this is what KTEC said when I emailed them: KTR Coilovers to be a direct competitor of the B14 coilovers by Bilstein and they share many characteristics, including their spring rates. They are designed to be competitive on track, as well as comfortable with everyday use. I was...

Hi All I left my car on handbrake at work (had to pull it up fairly high) for about 8 hours. When I started driving, I realised that the left, rear wheel was stuck. The handbrake feels like it has snapped, there is absolutely no resistance when pulling it. Had to stop in bloody Lidl car...

It is very normal - no raised eyebrows here. I do short journeys and I get 18 mpg. If I do motorway driving I get 35 mpg. While I appreciate how awful the mpg is, you wouldn't buy this car for economy.

Yea, I will probably give it a shot and see whether it makes any changes.

Hi All As it says on the title, the radio or whatever is playing CD, iPhone etc. is cutting out when I am driving and turning left. It is ok when stationary - I can turn right or left, but when I drive and turn left, with a slightest bump the stereo keeps cutting out. Its like when you're...

Hello all I have recently treated myself to a 197 and I am enjoying it. I have done some little bits and bobs, like spraying the grill and removed the B pillar strips e.g scraped them off. I am looking for a new exhaust and have noticed one on eBay for £200 something - eBay item number...
