You're spoilt for choice these days, these are a few of my favourites: SimpleWax Suds Adam's (the normal blue one) Bilt Hamber Auto Wash Wax Planet Lava CarPro Reset The SimpleWax and Adam's offerings are excellent when the sun is out, as mentioned they don't seem residue marks when dried on...

Is this a DIY job or a garage job on these cars? Thanks.

Hi guys, I've recently acquired a 2007 Clio 197 and the car is great, apart from the steering. The steering feels like it is constantly twitching and fighting whether to pull left or right along the road, and when at low speeds or at idle and the steering wheel is turned, it often makes some...

That's cool mate, just drop me a PM once you get a chance.

So that's the kit you have? If you're up for selling yours mate I'd rather get it from a fellow ClioSport member..!

Brilliant, if you could mate it'd be much appreciated.

I'll buy your kit off you if you could check its all good condition mate. Just can't find a webstore where I can request like the spare seal.

So it basically makes the slimline fan kick in at temp as the original would with the original wiring etc? Would be ideal as it means I wouldn't have to worry and keep a constant eye on the temperature gauge to see if and when I need to put the switch on..! How do I go about purchasing from...

Ah I see, the old rad had like a blanking plug halfway down the side but this one had a sensor stuck in with the 2 prong plug sticking out, is that it do you think? So I would have to buy all the wiring myself? Did it work ok when you had it in your car? Ah and where would I get the rubber...

What do you mean by 'fan switch in the rad'? Where does the KenLowe bulb go in the coolant line mate? How does it all wire up/work? I'd definitely be interested if it all worked for your car, what would you want for it? I have no idea why the fan wiring was removed or why it wasn't put in in...

Is that a plug and play unit? Working off of the existing thermostat sensor thing? Stupidly there was a 1.4 rad still fitted with no fan at all, so I changed it to a 172 rad with fan, but found the fan wouldn't come on at all when I was bleeding the new rad, then when I checked the fuses I saw...

Hi guys, I'm wanting to wire a slimline fan to my radiator and am looking for some help/advice. Basically the car was originally a 1.4 and was converted by KTEC to a 172 lump, the only thing is there is the plugs for the original fan but the relay box and fuse box in the spaces where the fan...

Perfect, thanks a lot..!

Will do mate, thanks. Also, is it normal for my gearstick to go off to the right (towards the drivers side) when in gear? Whilst in 3rd gear it looks and feels as if I'm going into 5th etc lol :S

Is there a kit or set of things I can replace to tighten up the gearstick/gear change? It feels a bit loose and when in gear it's got lots of movement from side to side. Cheers.
