I’m a bit confused then because if a charger is the best route why don’t most go this route as a conversion of a 225/230 R26 would cost more than a charger kit surely

I’d like to do it myself as I can tailor the car to what I want from word go and I’d prefer a built not bought one. Also trying to find a liquid yellow one will be like gold dust

Well after a few years away from the Clio scene since my 172 Cup and after buying our first house and kids I’m now on the look out in next few months for a 200 (liquid yellow preferably).
I will also want to carry out a 225 conversion. What is the cost of this conversion and who is the best...
Well I've taken the plug and resistor out tonight and ran a hairdryer over resistor to see if it was damp and still doesn't work.
Anybody got any ideas please as I'm running out now?
If it helps it also has the digital climate control fitted.
I've read that the resistor plug is at the bottom of winderscreen so possibly i could have got water ingress from the water that was poured over the winderscreen.
If that is case is it just a fact of letting it dry out and cleaning the...
Well this morning i went out to my mk2 clio (2002) and started it and left it running before i left for work as the car was frozen up.
At this point the interior fans worked but in the meantime i had a lukewarm kettle indoors that i poured over windescreen just to get rid of the thick frost on...
Well my mk2 Clio 1.4 16v has been developing a fault recently.
It's done it 3 times now in last few months.
Basically you'll turn it over to start and it will turn over 3-4 times then cut out.
The first time it done this I thought it might have been a dodgy battery so replaced it. Worked fine...
Ok just done a bit more research and if I put my hand down beside the spare wheel my finger tips are a bit wet.
So I'd be hazarding a guess that it's probably to do with the rear grommets etc the usual case
Has anyone please got pics of what I'd be looking at please?
Ok my rear near side seat seems to be wet this morning with a little pool of water underneath it.
I've done a bit of research on this but I've used the rear washer jet with seat up for a moment or too to see if that was the problem but couldn't see any trickle and I hardly use it anyway.
Also...
It's now fired up and I've tried 3-4 times and it's worked fine now but I've also noticed the clock on dash has reset itself too midnight time though so it seems its temporarily lost power too reset time
I have a 2002 Clio 1.4 and this morning it will not start
It will turn over 2-3 times then just stop. Also the alarm now bleeps 3 times when I lock it which it never has in past.
It still unlocks off key and all ignition lights etc and it doesn't sound like its struggling like a flat battery...
Sorry didn't realise this is the same light as engine management. Before I make a decision I'll get him to get diagnostic on it to find fault code and see what it is
It's not on fuel system though as it's the ignition coil light that should go out after starting. It's only the heating of glow plugs to help start light not the actual fuel system
Thanks for that. Been a viewed it and seems ok for money. Just one question though is that the glow plugs have recently been changed but the ignition coil light is illuminated whilst still driving. Any ideas anyone?
Does anyone have any info on these (i.e problems, faults etc to look out for) as going to look at one this weekend plus a few more.
It's the mk2 facelift clio if that is any help too
Thanks for responses. Taking tank off or drilling into it is a no go as clutch has a little life left in it so gonna try my best to get it to scrap yard so need it still functioning to get there. It's only around 15 miles away so should get there ok as not got any towns to go through etc
I have a mk2 clio 1.2. It's done 135k and was a work horse but the clutch has given up and considering it's only worth a couple hundred quid I'm going to let it go to the scrap heap. Now I have around half a tank of fuel in it (£30 roughly) and want to get it out.
Anybody know the easiest way...
128k mate so might get a little more out of it. I don't mind replacing it as its such a good little run around and hasn't missed a beat (touch wood). I've done 28k in 18 months as i travel 80 miles a day to work so was too expensive to run a sport around and this little number came up.
I have a clio 1.1 mk2 that i use as a work runabout.
I think the clutch is starting to slip.
Can i adjust the clutch or is it a case of just replacing it??
Any help would be appreciated.
I do like the sportsters. The misses will be the one struggling getting past recaros as I've got a clio 1.2 grande as hack to work and back everyday and she'll be using it lol
