Cheers dude. A Citreon Xsara diesel saloon, doing 30k+ miles now so need something returning 50+mpg. Really miss the Clio and the power but need to save for a house and other stuff now. Getting old and all that jazz.

FLOL'd. Yep still got the original wheels as well, waiting for Summer to list all the spare crap on eBay.

Thanks. I miss it sometimes tbh. It's scrapped now, was just costing a fortune in repairs on a monthly basis it would need something else. The rack had gone and it was an engine out job so I just sold the engine and some of the parts on, left a bare shell and got that scrapped :(

Just a quick update to this. I believe I've resolved the issue, it was a loose wire on the ECU wiring. The plug itself seemed a little loose and when it was firing on two cylinders pushing on the connector resolved the issue. I've put some strong cable ties around the ECU and over the clip and...

I've been having an intermittent issue lately with the car showing a flashing ECU light & begins firing on 2 cylinders. It doesn't always happen immediately but it nearly always happens with in 5-10 minutes. I've read some other forum posts and people mention common things. Here's what i've...

Check out my project thread, I had my car done in Glacier white so it will give you a good idea :) http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?369952-Project-White-Clio-172-Conversion-Respray/page8

Are you still after a boot? Apologies if I'm too late or misreading this but I actually have a flushed boot which was plate welded both lock and number plate, it's been smoothed and sprayed and I'm looking to flog it. Send me a PM if you're interested :)

I didn't get a set if I'm honest. It will be from when I did the engine transplant I'll of most likely used the wrong bolts when fitting it all back in. It's been fine for 18 months but over time the bolt has slackened. Thanks for the info, I'll order a new replacement set of bottom ball joints...

That may explain why I have movement in my bottom ball joints. May need to just bite the bullet and order a new set. Thanks for the info.

Apologies if this is a repost, couldn't find it via search so here goes: Can anyone tell me the exact size x length of the bolts/nuts used for the bottom ball joint to the wishbone. Need to order some replacements. Cheers, Dean.

£40 I think. Honestly they were not that great, I know the company who did them originally and could put you in touch with them if you like.

Truth be told I sold them on eBay and bought standard ones. They were extremely impractical and were going to cost a fortune to fill. :)

No bother at all Gaverick, Hopefully next time it'll be all gleaming! Hope you get the back box all sorted :) See you around :)

@Dweeb clear some storage space. Just tried sending you a PM. You asked a while back if I still had the old boot lid. I've just put it on eBay so here it is. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110822655003&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT Regards Dean.

Hey, Thanks for the feedback. All the pictures I have are up on-line but I could take some more if you'd like? The screen was done like this; I cut out the original air vents and separated the casing of the screen to just the front fascia. I then had it fibreglassed/bodged to the dashboard...
