    What have you done to your car today ???

    Sunroof has been leaking on my RSI, i had removed it, ran a nice tidy bead of sealant where the original seal was, didn't work so I've choose to just keep it out the rain for now :ROFLMAO: But now the one has started leaking on my daily smoker, this was not getting messed about with, full...

    Power steering issue

    if the battery is confirmed good and no earth issues its likely the motor at fault, as above the rack has its own control module so get the codes read. EDIT: that above is assuming its a mk3 Clio which a 2008 could be either a mk2 or a mk3, if its a mk2 its likely the motor on its way out!

    Mum's 0.9 TCe - Battery drain, weird issues

    yeah so the issue I came across was, after dropping off a pupil my mum was jumping over to the drivers seat as she's tiny, just must have caught the stalk and flicked it onto full beam, not noticing as it was day time, get back to the house, into the driveway, stop, handbrake on, stop start...

    Paul’s Pearl

    yeah they are definitely done! mine weren't even like that, I did fully fix my steering issues in the end, I had put a new rack on it but didn't know the rack needed calibrated!!! that transformed it and its been like a new car since

    Mum's 0.9 TCe - Battery drain, weird issues

    Must depend on the uch software, start engine, once the stop start stops the engine with headlights off, flick the stalk to full beam and open door, doesn't chime. I only found out about it after 2 flat batteries on my old dears motor!

    Mum's 0.9 TCe - Battery drain, weird issues

    sure she's not flicking the full beam on? this will cause them to stay on and drain the battery and very easy done!

    Glaceol RX Type E LDR Blue coolant sent by mistake or genuinely the right stuff?

    I remember getting my first new one in 2005, pulling my potato out my pocket and taking a picture of it i thought it was so cool!

    Glaceol RX Type E LDR Blue coolant sent by mistake or genuinely the right stuff?

    I am fed up chasing perfect green type D coolant on all my cars, this has sealed it! I'm moving over to cheap trade red now! cheap as chips in 25 litres!

    That's as much use as I can be to the thread :ROFLMAO:

    Single knock when pulling away - Engine mount?

    remove the top engine stabiliser and see if it disappears (you will have a bit more engine movement, but its still fully secure) I've had so many knocks and bangs come from this even when it looks new and doesn't appear to have any excess play.

    Battery change now CD Multiplayer issues.

    That's the electric mirror fuse, which also cuts power to the radio I believe, hence why your cd changer dies as its powered from there.

    Clio MK3 1.5 dCi 106 - Need advice on clutch, flywheel & concentric slave cylinder change

    the mk3 isn't a bad car to do a clutch on as you get plenty access when everything's off - the dci 106 6 speed is a fairly big box which makes doing it on your own on the deck a bit of a s**t job! For me, just use a recommended well regarded garage if your worried, ask them for a good quality...

    UCH Versions...

    My ph1 was difference in the sense that I fitted a new engine, gearbox and ECU (to match the engine) and it just fired straight up on the original UCH/key - That is not what the internet told me would happen, I advised someone else doing an engine conversion and they had the same result!

    Glaceol RX Type E LDR Blue coolant sent by mistake or genuinely the right stuff?

    my 1.2 Sport had orange stuff in it when i got it, i flushed it all out, new water pump, expansion bottle, new radiator, flushed out the matrix etc, filled it with fresh type D, few heat cylces later its got an orange tinge to it, drained it all again, flushed it all again, another 5l of fresh...

    UCH Versions...

    If, going by Mick's advice above, I can't see that being an issue as n3 were for high spec cars, which a 1.2 8v won't be so it should be fine. However a 2000 will be a ph1 car? Is that what your replacements are from?

    Glaceol RX Type E LDR Blue coolant sent by mistake or genuinely the right stuff?

    I'm not sure if it was just a production issue or if it is being phased out, it was back order last time I tried to get some from Arnold Clark, seems to be back though! @aldo_87 got febi bilstein stuff that was the correct colour

    Clio 4wd

    The same 4wd system was used in the scenic with an f4r, albeit the 138hp version, so the engine should bolt to it with little issue. However it's a weak system and If your going to all the hassle of fitting the rear subframe to the Clio which won't be easy, you may as well use something better...
