I’m looking online now and MF Tyres are a great shout! Do you guys run 215/45 on standard 17” wheels? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Haha, it’s a great atmosphere. And yes, I can see that! Can’t take it with you, may as well have fun with it! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wow, went to the cinema, come out and I’ve got a user backed advice and a shopping list! Haha. Great recommendations on the tyres with my track day coming up, I’ll get on that in Feb. Let us know how you get on with the Friction Z’s @Benno Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s all character building and I’ve learnt a huge amount working on the car. It should be sorted now. Thanks for the advice both of you! Would you suggest a shock absorber change if changing to the Cooksport springs for instance? As the time comes round for discs and pads I will be looking at...

I have things on my list to do to her, but any suggestions on mods that would benefit but can still I’m all ears! Jake

Yes, I’ve just clocked 230 miles/a week of daily driving and it seems to be fixed!! I have no reason to think the dreaded battery warning will return now [emoji4] The answer was to go direct to Renault, give them your VIN and they can give you the correct alternator with no questions! The...

So the third alternator in 2 weeks is now on, supplied by Renault and hopefully the correct one! I will drive her daily and I hope not to have to report any bad news. Fingers crossed guys! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m hoping 3rd time lucky. Ready for the new alternator tomorrow evening Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sadly the warning has come back a few times, spoke to Renault today and apparently the alternator is the 8200660043 and the correct Amps and Voltage spec but isn’t the one needed according to the Renault parts database and my VIN! I have a Renault supplied alternator coming out Wednesday under...

*UPDATE* Right, so I now have a Genuine Bosch 8200660043 alternator on the old girl after trying a non-genuine supposedly ‘good quality’ copy. Said alternator caused voltage fluctuation issues (12V-15.5V), lights dimming and flickering, and the dreaded low battery warning! I am happy to report...

Fingers crossed! Started her up and all seemed well, will road test tomorrow and update you guys Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks for the reply Tom! I can only assume it’s the regulator causing this fluctuation and that was your fix! I will mention this to the supplier tomorrow so cheers! Do you know if their is some kind of intelligent battery sensor or module that also controls the charging system or just the...

Glad I stumbled across this post! Can anyone shed any light on the battery warning randomly coming in and going off? I replaced the battery and then alternator when it became more frequent and tried to die on me at idle, now my battery voltage fluctuates from 12V to 15.5V at idle and my latest...

Hi, I’ve got the same random battery issue coming up randomly whilst driving, tested the battery with my multimeter at it jumps from 12V-15.5V and the lights dim and rise with the voltage drop and rise Did you get to the bottom of this problem? My car kept trying to die and stall and do this...

I used this recently, good stuff and comes with mixing pots (to mix paint and hardener), degreaser and a paint brush. Good quality paint http://www.brakecaliperspecialists.uk/shop/brake-caliper-paint/brembo-red/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
