    Removing Recaro Seats

    I've managed to get them out, broke a screwdriver in the process but got there in the end, played it safe and disconnected the battery. Paying £300 to have them done at Watkins conversions in Neath. The guy's been upholstering VW T4, T5's for years and pics of previous work looks pretty good so...

    Engine suddenly cutt out - clio 197

    The battery has now been replaced but no faults are being recognised when plugged into diagnostics. The garage has suggested that there could be a problem with the immobiliser caused by the battery being run completely flat. Looking like it may have to go to main dealer :thumb1:

    Engine suddenly cutt out - clio 197

    Hopefully be hearing from the garage at some point today. If it is the fuel pump that needs replacing is there any advantage of purchasing an uprated one? On demon tweeks the prices vary from about £30 to £830. Obviously not going to be shelling out over £800 for a fuel pump but what would be...
