    Clio 172 fault

    Chances are it'll be the common inconsistency between pedal track 1 and 2 issue. You can try cleaning up the big white connector in the engine bay fuse box, as this often causes issues but if not, you'll need to do some load testing on the entire circuit and find your issue this way.

    Full cambelt/Aux/Dephaser Change and nasty knocking noise

    Without having much to scale from, i'm taking a complete guess here. It looks like the bolt is either one of the lower inlet plenum to cylinder head fixings fixings (Timing case side) OR more likely, it's the fixing which holds the alternator upper restraint bracket to the cylinder head and goes...

    Crank tdc pin bolt.

    It depends on how badly chewed up it is but normally, you need something like an Irwin removal socket set: https://www.bes.co.uk/irwin-bolt-grip-fastener-remover-16923/?gclid=Cj0KCQjw6pOTBhCTARIsAHF23fIDWqh2zgONjX81QotJ5Ti0yEjelJb5eQvdxyHSA-zCkOHzwgEy0a0aAm-OEALw_wcB If that doesn't get a good...

    Inlet/Depahser pulley bolt: 30Nm then torque to 100nm... job done!

    Hit a brick and oil pissing out!

    Easiest and most inexpensive thing to do would be to pull the sump and inspect the big ends. If they’re not damaged check the mains and if they’re also good, replace/repair the sump, new oil and filter… see how it goes. The only thing you’ll waste is your time. If the bearings/crank is scored...

    JB3 VS JC5

    What are you trying to do?

    JB3 VS JC5

    JCX boxes use a tapered roller bearing, to deal with the torque better. There's also some minor differences in seals between the two but the main difference is bearing types.

    Clio 172 no spark/fuel - UCH fault?

    It'll be one of the GMV's so 4 or 5... can't remember exactly which one I'm afraid, it's been a while.

    Clio 172 no spark/fuel - UCH fault?

    I had it on a 182 Trophy recently and it turned out to be the relay battery supply, where some kind soul had historically pierced the wire to probe it. They're usually easy fixes on cars of this age, once you understand the circuits and how they function. The later stuff is all CAN/LIN and needs...

    ESP/ABS Fault on 197 Cup

    Always game with issues like these. The only problem I have is time… We’re booking for May at the minute, with a few random spaces in late April. Drop me an email sometime if you fancy getting her in: www.diamondmotors.co.uk

    Clio 172 no spark/fuel - UCH fault?

    The EML light being on is a good thing! It shows the issue isn’t the usual bag of worms. The most likely issue here is the injection latching relay function. You’ll either have 0-3v on the output or the control side of the circuit, which powers the Injectors common +12v and IGN Coil +12v. In...

    Hello,

    Welcome to the club and that’s a very nice looking 182. It’s way too clean to track abuse :P Mick

    Clio 172 no spark/fuel - UCH fault?

    There's loads of people around with access to clone CLIP but it's not a magical silver bullet. What you need to do is understand the actual cause for the solid red ADAC. Firstly, when you turn the key to IGN ON, do all the warning lights come on and then go out? Pay particular attention to the...

    Car tries to start but won’t fire up

    As a new player entering the game, can you confirm it’s a Mk2 Clio and the ADAC is staying lit, solid red when you turn the key on, still? Mick
