the reservoir was full and couldn't see or feel any leaks. My thought air is getting into the system somehow.
The garage has said its the clutch but don't want her to pay to have it changed and still not fix the problem.
forgot to mention clutch pedal felt horrendous at first, had no weight to it and was slowish to return after driving seemed to firm up a little but was still slow to return
so my friend has a 2016 ds3 one day when driving it just wouldn't go into gear and would just grind. I went and had a look for her ( no pictures) and when it isn't running it goes into gear fine but with the engine running it doesn't. I started it in gear to move it for her and within one...
just another area of caution is be careful placing the tripod bearings into the cup in the gearbox. I had one fall apart leaving the needle bearings in the gearbox. That was a fun day
so with that much power and weight reduction sorted the next thing is to look at suspension, i've not seen the eibach adjustable dampers but if you like them and they're stiff enough for you leave them be, if not a good set of coilovers from ast, avo, bc racing. look at combing this with a roll...

I was changing over to roll centre hubs and dealing with a siezed driveshaft managed to pull the driveshaft out the gearbox. Oil everywhere. Luckily it was on my brother's drive. Everytime I went round you could still smell it. He's moved on and now just his ex there. Couldn't have done it to a...
Finally found some time to clean the ph1 front bumpers needs paint and theres a few scratches and dings but not looking too bad for 21 years and 142k miles.
Got the Aircon regassed in the ph1 a couple of weeks ago only for the throttle cable to snap just before this weather. So had the cup with no ac today. Wasn't as bad as I thought it would be once on the move.
So doing some work to the Clio and as usual gone with lemforder ball joints and outer tie rod ends and genuine inner tie rods.
The one outer tie rod has snapped when tightening it up. Was only using a 3/8 ratchet one handed and it never got to a point where it felt tight. It's such a clean...

Thinking of taking the Clio out for a run.
Is anyone else thinking of going?
I'm not too far away in Stourbridge, I've not got any recommendations on places to get stuff done yet, as so far I've done all the work on mine myself. It is booked in to ktec in willenhall this week though.
