We put the fault reader on it at a local services. I found somebody who spoke vague English.
Fault reader showed no fault, however the light was off at the time.
I'm currently doing the Mongol Rally in a '03 Clio Dynamique 1.2 16V
This fault light comes on
The symptoms are the car loses all power, as if there is no accelerator. However engine off for 10 secs, and the restart the engine and the car will be fine for a while. Then maybe a couple of...
You're the lad that emailed me a month or so ago, from near Glasgow.
I'm also doing it this year, in a silver 1.2 Clio.
My main concern is the cars lack of power and economy with the roof box on. Test drove the car with Rally load weight, and roofbox on from Glasgow down to my work in Wales...
I don't know much about Clios as cars.
I've an '03 1.2 Dynamique, with 66k on the clock.
I'm a VAG man myself, I know little about Clios and their particulars, to use Hayes manual terms I'm at best a 3 spanner mechanic. I'm looking on advice on what tips on things to check for the 12k mile...
I got it on. Modified a bit of old 30mm square bar and gave it a coat of hammerite. Fits fine.
Problem was the length of the Thule 760, the kit I was sent was for a 5 door, not a 3 door.
Looking at your pics I am doing it right. I think I've found the problem the 760 kit isn't long enough (I assume it is for a 5 door), it's a 760/761 bar I need for front and back. The 761 is 43/4" bigger which would explain.
Got to love websites that have the wrong info printed on them when...
This is the thing, I do that but.... the roof bar doesn't seem long enough, it does state on the box it's for a clio 3 door, it seems short by 4-5".
It's definitely a 760 bar kit, it's printed on the bar itself it's a 760
I've got the correct kit
Thule 1119 fitting kit for 3 door
Thule 754 base mounts
Thule 760 roof bars
The front one is pretty straight forward fitted easily, however the thule instructions for fitting the rear mount 262 to a 3 door is not very clear at all.
Can somebody explain to me where/how...
I currently have:
10-24mm Tamron
18-50mm F2.8 Sigma
24mm Nikon Prime
70-300mm Nikon VR (FX Lens so about what, 105-400mm roughly on my D90)
Now I could be doing with a universal lens, that selection is fine when I'm actually going about with my rucksack wanting to take photos, but.... useless...
Car has a leaky sunroof, and was sitting outside as I was working away from home the last month. I was mid repair for the sunroof, however, the bit of polythene duck taped down has blown away, thus leaving a loose (and very leaky) sunroof sitting in the hole.
Anyway have returned to slightly...
D90, Sigma f2.8 18-50mm, no filter. will be about f/8 and exposure somewhere around the 60 second mark. I'm working away from home just now so don't have the original photos (on my desktop), so been plucking these off facebook, otherwise I'd tell you the exact settings from the meta.
Frosty...
