    The issue you have can be spraying environment temperature/air pressure/loads of other things will effect the final colour a paint comes out to a degree It’s also quite hard to match whites as white although it hides all manner of dings and scratches it can be a pain to get bang on as you’ve...

    200 Cup CV Joints

    I would think a complete driveshaft from Renault as with a lot of things on the RS models they don’t do them after market, they have a wider Track so everything is longer and often aren’t available after market You might drop lucky and find the cv joint being identical to a diesel Clio or even...

    200 cup price advice please

    Not aimed at the original poster... I never did get the fascination people have with low mileage cars... people go nuts for cars with sub 20k miles on at 7-10 yrs old... shopping cars driven by old buddy’s will have more engine wear and crap build up than day one that’s done 10k a year... My...

    Come at me with all you audio questions!

    If you go into audio settings on your headunit, see if there’s a section for hpf (high pass filters) this will then cut sub bass frequency’s from the front and rear speakers and allow them to sound better and suffer less distortion as a result, I’d start at 80hz and set the lpf (low pass filter)...

    Bad hesitation when up to temp.

    What was it? Dodgy lambda? Crank sensor? Cam sensor? Timing drifted? Do tell?

    Come at me with all you audio questions!

    Could be your aerial is on its way out, and it can latch onto the weak signal but can’t register the second signal so doesn’t flick, mine did similar although I dropped the standard unit and swapped it to a dab and a new dab bee sting, 39.99 for the aerial and it swapped a treat, ideal if you...

    RS200 Cup: Service Parts?

    If you let us know which site it may be better... looks like your buying three oil filters, two lots of oil, and a set of spark plugs and filters to suit the car too So not quite correct how you’ve written it...

    In garage replacing steering wheel

    My cup is as per the wiring diagram above, I improvised the cruise control on mine with the help of turkies wiring diagrams :) Take a pic of the wires you have if your struggling, I presume your using the wiring through the factory clock spring so what’s left after you’ve sorted the airbags...

    What height for my B14’s on 197

    Are you assuming by wheel arch gap or have you actually measured the jacking points and set it to standard less 30mm or whatever all round? That’s where I would start... Is it on the bump stops by any chance? Do you have to modify them? The rear will always be stiff for the most part in a...

    What height for my B14’s on 197

    Wind the rear up a little and have the rear higher that the front by about 5mm by the jacking points... Why people insist on lowering the rear of cars on coil overs to the floor and having cars level... or worse arse end down... I will never know... every front wheel drive car Ive ever setup...

    Few questions

    To answer the stereo question, if you have it wired up and just plugged in your not doing yourself any favours, you have two amps now in series, it works but it’s far from ideal! Ideally you’d rewire the amp under the seat and remove it, use the one amp in the headunit which probably has as...

    Engine Oil Temp From OBD2

    Not accurate at all unless a dedicated temp sensor is fitted for the oil, so take any info with a pinch of salt, oil takes longer to warm than the water generally in an engine, but does closely follow it normally then normally in turbo engines overtakes it due to flowing through the turbo, but...

    There are also various ways of deadening vehicles that don’t cost a fortune and are easy to apply and more importantly cheaper than dynamat type products You can do rear quarters with celotex very effectively... pick big flat areas and bond it on with pu type sealant... Cut it into smaller...

    Come at me with all you audio questions!

    The issue with aftermarket speakers is they are generally designed to work with subs and don’t tend to perform well in a leaky door environment, so I would recommend sound deadening and sealing your doors to get the most out of your current speakers as they are far better suited to the...
