    Accident repair recommendation - Midlands

    Looking for recommendations for an accident repair company to replace a rear quarter on a 197. Rear axle appears to be fine but of course you can’t really say for sure until the car is taken apart. Ideally in the West Midlands but happy to travel for a quality job.

    USB install midlands

    Anybody have any recommendations for a garage that can wire up 2 USB ports (ideally with a switch) where the clock sits on a MK3 Clio? One specialist gave a fair price but wanted the car for a few days and unfortunately that's not possible as it's a daily and they're at least an hour away...

    Painting over enamel caliper paint

    Painted my calipers about a year ago using enamel paint but i'm now looking to go for a different colour. Will be using VHT colour and lacquer but was wondering if simply using brake cleaner and VHT primer will suffice or if I should sand down the existing paint too, and if so what sort of grit...

    Powerflex warranty

    Has anyone ever made a claim on the powerflex lifetime warranty? It's hard to explain but sometimes when changing gear I think the car is in third, when it's actually in neutral. Not the best description but this issue was fixed when I had the gearbox and lower engine mounts fitted. Since the...

    OEM+ alternative to the standard satnav (pics inside)

    After coming across a video on youtube of a company that incorporates ipads/tablets into dashes, I thought why not try and implement something similar for the Clio. Once I had purchased the satnav housing I began my research. After looking at the dimensions of tablets, I came to the conclusion...

    I spotted that neither of my number plate lights were working the other day so ordered LED replacement units which replace the standard bulb and bulb holder. Turns out they still don't work. Checked the fuses under the secondary intake and replaced all the 10A ones anyway, nada. I've got a...

    Sticking noise from the rear?

    Right so this morning going to work, I get a sound from the rear which is a lot like when you have something stuck to your tyre and makes a flapping sound along with being somewhat metallic. This was then followed by a burning smell whenever the car was stationary. From a quick search online...

    Enamel paint wrinkling

    Right guys so I set about painting front and rear nearside calipers and they came out great, or so I thought. Calipers were cleaned with brake cleaner, scotchbrite pad was used so the paint would adhere better and gloves worn so I didn't get any oil on any surfaces. Light coats were painted...

    Decent garage in East London/Essex?

    Looking for a decent garage to do basic work on the Clio (mostly services) as my preferred Clio specialist is too far for small jobs like these. The garage I normally use are getting sloppier and more expensive. Just noticed they balanced 3 wheels perfectly and then decided to stick a wheel...

    Mintex Ceratec alternatives?

    So I stripped my front brakes 3 weeks ago to stop them from squealing. Filed down the sharp edges and used Mintex Ceratec on the back of the pads. Went through a small pothole the other day which had a lot more water than I thought and it seems that the lube has washed out as the NSF brake is...
