    Petrol Blue Register - 21/29 Remaining

    Is your mate from Wales? I probably bought it off him. About 5 of us off this forum have owned this car, I had it back in 2014-2018 I think. https://cliosport.net/threads/chronicles-of-1-29-petrol-blue-182.815095/

    New, Fully Electric Renault 5

    Compared to your yellow 200 would you say it's a nicer drive for daily pottering about and motorway? Hopefully it's not long till you get a home charger.

    O/S driveshaft removal

    Once youve got the old shaft off, dont put too much grease on the splines of the new one. It probably just me but I put loads on and struggled to push the shaft on to the gearbox splines as there was no way of air escaping from behind the shaft. Have some string or bungy cords to hand incase...

    Seized rear abs sensor

    remove as much of the fine copper mesh wires as you can then pull the magnetic core out. Once the magnetic core is out it should come out fairly easily.

    Clio 182 High CO2

    A lot of posts on this forum have said over the years that it's good to get the car as hot as possible by driving it hard and then immediately after do the not emissions test.

    Decent and useable v6

    Might get expensive when you factor in: Please remember, that a Buyers commission of 6.5% + VAT applies to this lot.

    New, Fully Electric Renault 5

    The easy option is to use Octopus. I decided to try and make the charger install as cheap as possible when I did it so bought a master plug tethered EV charger for £300 and got a local electrician to install it which cost me £280. It's a decent charger and works fine. I'm also on Tomato energy...

    182 Engine Shuts off while driving. Electrical Issue?

    As it was a clutch job, have you checked the earth strap on the gearbox is alright and tightly done up.

    Likely to be the starter?

    Might just be the cable to the starter. This will take 5 mins and well worth a go: There is a spade connector that is attached to the starter motor. Wait till the car is cold then stick your hand between the middle two exhaust manifold pipes and get right down to the starter. Feel for the...

    What have you done to your car today ???

    The way round it is to get a couple of old credit cards and cut a hole in the middle to fit the alpine tweeter. You can then cut the credit card outer edges to fit the hole on the Clio. You can then fit the Clio tweeter grille on top and you'll never see the credit card and it will all look OEM.

    Medianav Turning Off all the time

    Yeah possible loose. Whilst in the car with the medianav exposed - start the car and let the medianav boot up. Then wiggle the wires a bit to see if that causes it to shut down.
