Yep, you need a piston wind back tool, £10 on ebay or £20 from halfords, easy job though-make sure your brake fluid resevoir doesn't overflow when the pistons go back! Ian.

Just changed my rear pads and was shocked by the manufacturer, just binned them and can't remember! Will post when i remember, but the were carbon lorraine or something similar normally found on a motorbike.

Have you priced up genuine? Just fitted one to my RS200 £41

Sorted it! Checked in front of battery for a relay and found a 40amp maxi fuse with one leg in the main fuse box and the other in a green add on that clipped in to the main fuse holder. The green bit wasn't clipped in, so one leg wasn't making contact. pulled the green bit up, pushed the fuse...

Bought a kit from Halfords-compared the wife's car to my own! Will call Fred at BTM tomorrow, fuse ok, fan rotates fine. Reckon there's a sensor somewhere linked to both?

Charged the a/c gas in my wife's 197 and thought i'd top mine up as it's not the best! Wife's went ok, my 200 read 100 psi on the air con top up gauge and came out the vent hot-looked up at the dash and it came up engine overheating-the rad fan isn't cutting in. Any ideas?

Just fit cheap pads to the rear, as they don't do a lot apart from stick to the discs!

What do you mean? Anybody know the difference between the Bluetooth type display and the rs monitor one? Ian.

Got P zeros on my 200 and cs5's on the wife's 197, had p zeros on my 182 too! Prefer the cs5's for daily use, feel more confident and feel they have better wet grip. Ian.

I have that head unit with Bluetooth and USB etc, does it come with the right display and can it be updated to rs monitor? Ian.

I have a 200 cup with the Bluetooth head unit, does anyone know if this is the correct display to update to the rs monitor?

Got one pic up-I seem to struggle with photo bucket! Ian

Might be wrong, but sure he was charging around £20 a dent, which is cheap!

Cheers, wife says take the cup, so may do that as those guys did a good job last year. Ian.

Hi, can anyone recommend a PDR company near me in Solihull? The guys at the Cliosport day did a good job last year, not sure if they're there this yeat, butwe're gloing in my wife's 197! Cheers, Ian.

Made me smile, I had my wife's 182 when she moved up to a 197. I bought a civic type s which I sold after 7 weeks, test drove some 350z's, then some impreza's and bought a 200 cup! They're not the most reliable cars, but when they work, they're unbeatable!

I have to drive over several speed bumps on the way to work and it was a pain, up and down the box all the time and you couldn't dip the clutch to stop the transmission backlash like on a manual. Was good on a and b roads, but ended up leaving it in auto as the paddles were always in the wrong...

Need to get some pics-hate photo bucket though! Bought a nimbus 200 cup with recaros, a/c and Bluetooth head unit, only thing I miss is an external temp monitor. Cup is basic after a 182 ff and the wife's 197 ff. Has 70k miles on a 60 plate and is due a cambelt, but more than happy for what it...

Having owned a dsg Audi TT, I wouldn't want a similar box! Prefer a manual!

Just read that the new Clio sport comes in flappy paddle gear box only-is this to get over the faulty synchro problem :-)
