Hi all,
Been on here for years, so please don't bite my head off for it not being a clio! But after some help regarding a Renault engine...the 1.6 dci.
Recently bought a 65 Kadjar and evey 1st journey after about 5 minutes the car throws a tantrum and pings up a battery symbol or a message...
So in this horrible rain the Clio decided to have a long drawn out beep at me when i opened her. When i got to my rents it just wont lock...press the fob and the doors click but the imboliser light stays on red and it lets out a long beep...which doesn't stop until i press the fob to unlock...
Twotechs are brilliant, had a few bits done back in June. Both very nice guys explain out all options, and "what if" situations, without forcing the sale.
In response to the guy mentioning the slow reply time, I had my MOT done last saturday, one of the guys was moving and the other had a...
Coming from a troubled 02 Audi s3....I brought my 182 as a stop gap before moving on again. But still have it since 09 :pI have had no real issues apart from wear and tear and love the car still today. Deals with everything I throw at it including snowy Kent country lanes.
I have to admit I...
Just got a quote of £600 from a local specialist. Who to be fair in the past have been very good. Anyone know any Garages in Bexley area which they could suggest?
Afternoon folks,
The car is getting to the stage of needing a new clutch. Does anyone have a rough idea of a standard price i will be looking at?
Any info is appreciated.
Steve.
I see Redline has now folded. One of the better early 00's car mags. In its later years some good articles for those more serious modders. Was a better mag when moved away from the Fast Car chav-esque more birds than cars set up. Shows where the modding scene is now. Anyway R.I.P

After a quick clean this afternoon a few picks...
A few points of note from another Clio 200 owner:
1) Recaro's aren't needed, they standard seats are supportive enough and are not prone to the splitting of the bolsters issue that the Recaro's have. If anything, I'm glad I didn't spec the Recaro's as my car is in a garage and it wouldn't be...
Afternoon all,
Does anyone know any good Alloy Refurbishment companies in the South East? Nearer to Bexley the better?
Best quote I have so far is a 1 day service in Surrey. £200 plus vat for gloss black.
Any names and feedbacks appreciated.
Cheers.
I sprayed mine resently...the paint doesnt like the cold!!
Warm the badges with a hairdryer before spraying, then also after 10 mins very light power warm the badges to dry.
Don't do it to close as the paint may run.
Hope that helps.
These are a pig...perhaps not the best idea but i got a good grip on the two wires and a swift tug got it out. failing that needle nose pilers.
Once out they seem to be easier to do.
You could remove it and spray it?
Perhaps the same colour as the car?
I removed mine at the weekend...it looked poo with two little holes. So i stuck it back on.
Afternoon all,
After thinking it would be a 5 minute job i popped the car in the garage...nearly 30 minute later and everything but the sidelight bulb was out??
What is the process to remove them?
It is the Xenon headlight set up and after checking on here its a mixed bag...do you pull or...
Think i have read in the past that if you take the keys out of the ignition, and get out too quickly the ECU takes time to realize whats going on. Its nothing to worry about.
Bit far for me to go, I am based in the South East. I'm hoping for around a £700 discount (to negate some of the options). Do you think this kind of discount would be possible?
Has anyone managed to negotiate a discount with these either on the price of the car or with the options? If so, what can I expect on a FF 200 with the cup pack, speedlines and white paint?
Anyone currently got one of these installed:-

They look useful, but not sure £20 is worth, as normal sump plugs are pennies.
