    Just given the 200T a quick clean and fitted Winters

    Super chips Bluefin with the torque limiter put back in, 1st map gave me a gearbox overheat alarm. To be honest the new map is not as violent as the first and a lot more driveable, although the surge of torque was good, just a little bit much for me as I'm old. Some cars get an alarm some don't.

    Just given the 200T a quick clean and fitted Winters

    As per title, just spent today giving my 200T a good clean, still too cold to get any products on it and decontaminated, as it is covered in fallout. Warmer weather is round the corner though. I got some Winter wheels (17s) to fit my winter tyres to. Makes a big difference in this weather, car...

    200t clocking noise on full lock straightening up

    Mike does it, it's just the front sliding on full lock, as the steering seems to have quite a bit of lock on it. I have had my tracking done and set to 1.0mm toe in, it was 2.4mm and it is not as bad now. When the wheels are on full lock there is very little contact on the tyre surface, due to...

    Stone chip protection

    Paintshield in Peterborough, very expensive self healing film, no cutting on the car, a must for the purists. I had my green Focus RS done, cost a grand, 18 months and it was unmarked, I got top money for it. What you have to consider is, the colour of your car. If it's a base colour, it will...

    Flipping furious at Renault service centre

    I had a very similar experience about 12 years ago with a Racing Puma, at the main dealer, wiped down with a gritty rag. Dealer had the car acid prepped, which removed the top skin of laquer, then polished, looked better than when it went in. Car didn't go in with scratches, so they should be...

    lowering recaro position seat

    The Ford Recaro height is higher than the Clios. At least with the Clio you have the height adjustment. Look how high that seat is.

    Is remap worth ?

    I had my standard 200 mapped at RS Tuning, I didn't get a lot of power, but it drove a lot better and pulled better right through the Rev range. For 300 Euros yes but 600, not worth it, put the money to a new car

    Too old for a 197?

    53 just sold my 200 and bought a new 200T. When you get old you find it difficult to change gear, you forget things and spill your tea. All I can say is I'm really 21 but I have 32 years experience of that age. There are many a track day when I can lap these young ones in there EVOs and...

    Speed camera laser detector, anyone got one?

    I use the Roadangel Gem, it's ok, saved me a few times, just by alerting me of cameras in strange towns. It is easy to creep above the limit just following the flow of traffic. The laser detector is just a gimmick to tell you have been caught. By the time you hear the warning the ticket is in...

    Refitting stock exhaust

    Yes, but it is easier for it to learn from default, than adapt around a problem

    Refitting stock exhaust

    ECU reset, as the car thinks it needs fuelling and ignition for the old system. Disconnect the battery overnight, this will clear the previous information and the ECU will adjust to the new setup.

    Decat questions

    It's not the MOT that is the problem, that's easy fixed, it's the criminal conviction for perverting the course of justice. By removing the CAT, your car is no longer insured, which is fine by me I don't have a problem, but just so you are aware, if your car is not fitted with a CAT it is not...
