Davie's french attraction.

Always use the best Davie. After all, the old adage is true... Buy cheap, buy twice...

Indeed, I had cheap bearings in the Xsara Picasso - both had to be changed again in <12 months, and then one of the replacements shortly after. Got the local man to fit an SNR bearing the last time. Have sourced and fitted SKF bearings to the 307 and C4 recently - the 307 one I got via e-bay from Germany for about £50 (quite possibly the same one Davie has had fitted!). I didn't reckon the no-names ones on e-bay for around £10 were going to cut the mustard!

wheeeeeeeeeee !

the blancmange is legal

[CitroJim]

Excellent news Davie

[daviemck2006]

It's now a power blancmange [emoji4] 248 bhp instead of 204 and train loads of torque. Big difference of power delivery, much more responsive and turbo lag all but gone. And as for mpg here's the difference from the first 1000 miles or so to 50 off miles going to visit daughter in Elgin after getting the map. First impressions good [emoji4] [emoji7]

The 205 will be at its first show on Sunday. A local classic car show. I'm looking forward to it. I hope I get a dry day or 2 to give it a good clean. I've bought a clay bar and spray for it and high gloss wax. I've never used a clay bar before so will see what I think of it. Just as well it's a little car I am attempting first! I think if I tried bigpug first it would put me off for life lol

A panel at a time, add some car shampoo to a spray bottle....keep it VERY wet. Work in small areas as you go up and down the panel (no more than 12 inches), not a circular movement. "Pushing it out" is better than pulling it. Remember it is NOT a polish, it cleans only.

No giggles please

Those mpg figures are good Davie.

That's why I wanted the remap. It's only 57 miles since the map but 8 mpg extra is not to be sniffed at. It was mostly on the cruise, but there was a few overtaking manoeuvres testing the kickdown and torque which is now amazing. I think in standard form it has 330 lb/ft of torque and it now has 418, and it kicks down faster. It's like getting hit in the back with a rocket! I'm hoping it cracks 40 mpg average, which will be amazing for the size of the car and the power it's giving [emoji41] [emoji39]

Davie, delighted the remap has been a success and that you're happy with it

Just used 3 hours cleaning the 205. I clay barred the roof and bonnet but just polished the sides. I can't see much difference in the finished article.
