Crap video from France a few weeks ago (I thought it was recording horizontally!!). Before the brake fluid change  Wish i'd taken it on the way up as I was way more committed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rD5sdNwaoMk ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |

Nah its me trying to figure out the amount of handbrake needed on left hand turns. Right handers are easy, left are completely impossible. Randomly it makes the same both sides on a brake tester. ESP + TC is off, although is slip sensing so actually very good.This is also pre engine mount and breathing mods. Its now a bit louder and loads quicker to turn in. None of the understeer you see in the vid. ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |

Strange isn't it? My D8 engine in the 306 was the same. Going to figure out a cooler I think - the 806/7 V6s use one as standard. ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |

We had an idea about ecu software updates, needs to go to a dealer for this but seems most management glitches seem limited to the first year or so.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

Been looking at an oil cooler as the filter adapter is the same as the gti6 filter only the v6 filter is slightley longer. I got a good wiff of burning oil after i have been giving it some for more than 10mins what is usually everyday on my way to work  ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

Both, water and oil Get silly hot in no time at all, The 309 I did suffers the same with a 406 rad so I hate to think of the 205's with smaller onesThe D9's have the heat exchanger which makes it worse as one heats the other up ________________________________________ 306 Rallye Sptint/Race Car, 205 CTI 1.9 8v to name a fewRoad, Track and Race/Rally car preparation to your personal requirements, Full Workshop & Diagnostic Facilities New and Second parts, from Plugs to Turbo's We now also carry out Routine Servicing www.pugracing.com & FB Page, https://www.facebook.com/PugRacing Ebay; http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Pug-Racing-Shop 2012/2013/2014/2019 Class Winners at Gurston Down Speed Hillclimb & Joint overall, Class record too along the way, |
