Isn’t Birchdown an hour away? Mine was a dirty Throttle Body. The butterfly valve wasn’t moving freely enough, which caused an inconsistent signal back to the ECU, which in turn put it in limp mode (that symbol on your dash) and an EML light.
I took it off, cleaned it with WD-40 and contact...
Yeah, all of the above. I used RC6 for two seasons but couldn't get away with the sudden bite - if I bottled it and dabbed on the pedal, usually mid-corner.
My mates ran PBS on their Clio last two seasons and no issues.

What a fight this car gave me today.
First up I was struggling to fit the bolts through the dampers and into the hubs.
I thought I’ll just measure the bolt distance and as suspected, it has 54mm hubs 🤔
It’s a CUP packed car, albeit an old one at that, so s**t happens I guess. Never mind...
