    Campbeltown, water pump & clutch servicing needed

    In a 1.2 16v... We'd be around £450 for those bits.

    Clio 1.2 16v Rounded Spark Plugs - Unable to remove - Help!

    I agree, more likely to be the plastic/rubber end cap from the plug lead. Smash the socket over the bastid

    Clio 1.2 16v Rounded Spark Plugs - Unable to remove - Help!

    Are you sure they're rounded? Either my glasses or s**t or your autofocus is. If they are rounded then yes, head off. If it's you using the wrong socket, plonka.

    Subframe Removal Help

    Subframe captive nuts (18mm) or the supplementary brackets that tie the Subframe to the floor (13mm)? I'm guessing you mean the supplementary brackets in which case you are gonna have to either drill them out or forget to put them back on.

    Is a laguna 2.0 16v engine from a 2002 same as the 172 engine?

    Pretty much this. The main issue is the different compression ratio though.

    Clio oil leak

    I'd get a new aux belt fitted either way as yours appears to have a split.

    Mk3 clio drivers window

    You don't go full r****d and spray it everywhere. Just a small application on the upper edge will be enough to allow the contact point to pick it up!

    Middle of timing belt change, need advice.

    okay, the timing tool set they've sold you as genuine Renault tooling is 100% NOT genuine Renault tooling. Renault tools all have an "MOT-XXXX" prefix stamped in to them and are always of a hardened steel construction rather than the mild steel rubbish in the links above. Tool numbers have been...

    No comunication to the airbag ecu

    Officially the crash context data cannot be cleared but you can have someone (eBay is a good source for this service) who can rewrite the code so it doesn't contain the context data. I believe this costs around £25 but I've seen some come back with completely incorrect configurations (i'm...

    what spark plugs for a 2003 1.2 16v?

    Yes, they are correct. Just make sure you have access to a spark plug removal tool as these cars need a long and narrow 14mm plug socket IIRC

    No comunication to the airbag ecu

    The light is on because there is a fault somewhere on the system. I would take the car somewhere that has CLIP access and have then run a network test firstly and go from there as you're not going to fix this without some proper equipment I'm afraid. We're in Nottingham if that helps? Mick

    REVERSE LIGHTS NOT WORKING HELP PLEASE?

    Can be done without loosing too much box oil if you're quick. Simple enough job to.

    Airbag wiring

    The clockset needs a CAN signal from the SRS module in order to turn the light off. If the module has been removed you will never get it to turn off with modifying the clockset PCB layout and removing the SMD LED

    I use brake cleaner and a tough bristled brush for things like this... i use brake cleaner on most things lol

    Dirty window channel. Clean it out and maybe give it a quick blast with some silicone spray.

    Gear shift light wiring- Phase 1. What is needed?

    Not an overly difficult obstical to over come. Firstly confirm the wiring is in place then add the track.

    Is it possible to change instrument cluster?

    No, lol, the clocks on a diesel don't range as high on the tacho as a Diesel doesn't rev to just shy of 8k. A Petrol will range from 0 - 8k where as a diesel only ranges from 0 - 6k. The clockset has a motor which controls the movement of the tacho needle which works off a resistance based...

    Gear shift light wiring- Phase 1. What is needed?

    I miss the simplicity of the older cars. I cannot wait to get a Mk1 in my life again.

    Compression Test Guide - Step by Step instructions

    They're pretty precise readings to be taken with a Gunson lol Not bad readings and within 10% so no need to worry about valve or ring seal issues.

    Is it possible to change instrument cluster?

    Yes it can be done but: Rev counter range will be wrong If you have digital type clocks you will need the UCH configuration updating for analogue type display.

    Gear shift light wiring- Phase 1. What is needed?

    In the case of the 172 Cup (which doesn't have ABS) it's as simple as the bulb not being there (put a non-Cup clockset in its place and the ABS light is always on).

    Gear shift light wiring- Phase 1. What is needed?

    I'd just pull the clockset out to see if there's a bulb in position and if not fill it.

    172 race rally car immobilizer removale?

    You got a copy of the rules and regs to hand? I'd read into it as most people that play with the standard loom do more harm than good as they simply do not understand CAN BUS

    172 race rally car immobilizer removale?

    If you're doing all this to a genuine competition vehicle then you'd be absolutely stupid to not use aftermarket management and drop all standard looms in favour of proper competition wiring with just the basic circuits for power, lights and cut-offs

    Speak to Paul at RS Tuning.

    Gear shift light wiring- Phase 1. What is needed?

    That was going to be my next port of call. It's deffo not a case of turning it on as an option but i'm sure a software reflash would add it. I'd need a donor car to experiment with though to be able to say for sure.

    Gear shift light wiring- Phase 1. What is needed?

    It should already have it and if not it may be worth having your clockset bulbs checked.
