    Advice Please

    I sold my clio at the weekend, but 2hrs after the lad purchased it a coolant hose split. I felt awful, went over to help him and used my AA membership to get car sorted. And offered to give him his money back and take car off his hands again. He said he wanted to keep it, so I told him to...

    I've searched and searched, but can't find answer. Does anyone know where to connect the resistors on the drivers side plug to stop the airbag light coming on ?

    Replacing seatbelts

    I've bought some seatbelts for my car from a reputable dealer, second hand but in full working condition. I was going to clean them today before fitting but they wont extend ? Is there something I'm missing or not doing ? None of the 5 belts will pull out, all just lock ?

    RS Tuner/198 map review

    In one word, amazing. I know everyone says how good this is, but I was always sceptical. But I did my 172 yesterday and the results are, as I said, amazing. It was easy to do, the only problems I had were because I was rushing to do it and not giving other people enough time, Henk etc. But it...

    Gonna change my 13yr old suspension next month and lower at same time. What do I require so that I can take the standard set up out and just replace with new. So far I have got springs (Eibachs), Shocks (Bilstein) and I'm guessing I will need something like this...

    H and R springs

    Is anyone using these springs, or has used them ? If so how did/ do you rate them.

    Temperamental electrics

With no reversing lights. 3, The service light stays...

    Thanks

    For the great welcome and advice, this place is a lot more helpful and friendlier than other forums. I'll will post some picks up when I work out how, and have stopped driving the 172. I think I'm addicted at the minute though, this thing is amazing. Completely different to my astra diesel, its...

    Different service light question

    I have used the search function before anybody says, and I now know the service light doesn't come on when its due a service. But in my current car I can do a pedal test to see what the fault code is, is there something similar with Renault or is it a code reader job ?

    Mid-life crisis ?

    Hi, just thought I'd pop in and say hello. I'm about to buy my first ever Clio, a 52 plate 172. After driving family cars for 17 years (my last hot hatch was an Escort RS turbo) I've decided to get a toy as I no longer need a big estate car. Although the car is 13yrs old it has only done 49,000...
