How do you get the old ones out? Break the clips and rip them out?

I was itching to clean my neighbours filthy Renault Megane 64 plate. When I did it I couldn't help but think that the roof was huge and too high, RCZs are easy 🙃

Phew, I too was perplexed by that desire for a HPFP code! I think my own HPFP might be going. Peugeot told me it was but due to all the other expensive work I had to pay for, I decided to live with it for now. Now I seem to think other owners have repaired the HPFP seals and a whole new pump...

Hi Everybody, I dug out my DSLR the other day to take some sunset photos. I'd forgotten that I took a few photos on holiday in Snowdonia last year and came across this one' It was taken by me at Black Rock Sands in North Wales in June 2019. You can legitimately drive onto the beach. In the...

Thanks for that Pete! I went to change the bulb today. I was well rehearsed with the instructions from page 180 of my cars handbook. The first stage was really easy, you just have to remove a rubber cap which protects the internal wiring from damp. The next step says "Disconnect the bulb...

Hi Mick and Bailey, Thanks for sharing that fantastic Grand Tour. I kid you not, I realised that I had started drooling from the first pics. Envy? I have turned fluorescent green and grown horns. Absolutely brilliant, Ian :mrgreen: :clap:

Oh bloody hell, something else to worry about!!! :crazy: I drove home two nights ago and immediately noticed on a non lit road that something was wrong. I pulled over and soon saw that my nearside dipped bulb had blown. I've been driving for 41 years and have NEVER had a headlight bulb fail...

Hi Gordon, well as somebody who had to have his timing chain replaced on 20th July 2019 I would love to comment. I've had my RCZ for just over two years. During that time I had it serviced at 12 monthly intervals and do approx 7000 miles a year. I bought the wrong oil for the car, for my own...

Very nice job. It would be interesting to see if it can handle temperature changes throughtout the year. BTW, where do you get his stuff from?

Good grief Stewart!! As far as I know, we don't have to carry anything in our cars or on us. I'm quite certain though that under some circumstances you'll have to produce somehing. However, Insurance, MOTs, Driving Licences, Vehicle Registration documents are all online so maybe you don't, I'm...

Very nice Mike. I don't think I've seen that colour once in my two years of having my RCZ. Welcome :greetings-wavingblue:

Just when I thought is was all over... Tuesday 12th August: I did my usual intermediate car clean: A. Jet wash rinse B. Snowfoam C. Another rinse D. Surfex HD cleaner hand applied to remove squished insects. No problems, until the day after. When I started her up I got the message "Parking...

Hi Plecodoras, Thanks for sharing the fan/thermostat problems. Mine demanded attention today.... ~~~~~~~~ wibbly wobbly back in time to yesterday ~~~~~~~~~~ I cleaned my recently polished and waxed car. This required me to reverse her about four metres to a perfect position for cleaning. The...

EDIT: I've just realised your car was 2010, not the repair date. Hi Neil and thanks for sharing the invoice. The most obvious difference between our invoices is that yours has just eight parts and mine has seventeen. That's quite puzzling. I'm particularly intrigued that yours has no gaskets...

I'm not sure I like the new wrap. It has wrinkles in it but on the good side, it's very clearly got a good wax on it :crazy:
