Hey chaps, My girlfriends Clio 1.4 16V has been making a weird whistling noise which has been getting worse as it gets colder. The engine runs a little rough (which I have been told is normal for this engine, but I'm not convinced) and the noise goes away once warm. The noise never happens...

Hi guys, My girlfriend has a 2006 1.4 16v Clio Dynamique that has a slightly rough idle. It isn't horrendous, but noticeable to someone that knows what they are listening for. Sounds a little like a car with a big cam. Lumpy. The car also feels as though it lacks any power above 2krpm. I'm used...

At the moment it's basically intake, 2nd decat + remap. After that it's fuel pump, intercooler, down pipe. That would be good for 320bhp. After that it's meth or big turbo upgrade.

I know it's not a Clio, but had a good day. Thanks to the Clio boys and girls for being accommodating. The Mazda actually made 292bhp and 310lbft. Pretty happy with that, but not stopping there. Next up is a fuel pump upgrade which should see over 300bhp and 330lbft. Shame the guy with the...

Lol.

Colour = Sex

Put some rain-x anti fog on the bathroom mirror too lol. Stop it steaming up when you get out the shower :p

I've thought of the Rain-X idea lol, and fast glass.

Piece of p*** as long as you don't have it plugged into the 'lectrics and your just careful with things.

Is it a different shade of white, or are my eyes being gay?

My older 360 is connected up via component and my tv reports that it is receiving a 1080p signal.

When I took my CPU out of my old laptop, literally everything had to come off/out. Everything. Then there is the possibility the motherboard won't even support it. I'd sell the ram and save up for a better one.

I work for PC World (same as currys) afaik they only replace them (even with the extended warranty) if there is a cluster of like 5 or more.

They provide different levels of cover though, so their prices will differ. But, yes, that is quite a big saving. Congrats lol.

I'm 100% sure there is no option for us on eclipse to order stuff from partmaster. I've been there for 4 years and we have never had such an option. Our manager for certain cases will get the customer to order a part from partmaster and then refund the difference on their reciept of their...

Partmaster.co.uk is a sister company for pc world and currys that stocks power supplies, batteries, remote controls etc. They should offer next day delivery aswell. This is not something we can order in store as we physically have no way of doing it. That's why they created Partmaster. (If...

I'm more interested in refinement comfort then outride speed. People have told me to buy the diesel but I can't see myself doing that lol. Thanks.

Hi people. My names Eliot. I'm from Farnborough in Hampshire and I currently own a 1.2 Punto. Looking to get a mk3 clio in either 111/138/197 form. I'm currently about to do my last year of a degree in computing and I work part time at pc world. Anyone from near my area? I'm...

Fuse? Knackared fan motor?

Well I was planning on having a 1.6 vvt for a while and then get one. So no point me test driving one at the moment. Just wondered what peoples views were.

Hey guys. Just wondering is the ride quality in the 197 really that harsh? I was reading parkers the other day and they were praising the non sport for having excellent comfort, and then they turn round and say the 197's is far too harsh and shite. Is this really true? Was thinking of getting...

Looks spot on as is. Don't change anything unless its power related.

What sort of power can these be mapped too?

Could be speed sensor. I've heard it's common and only costs about £40 from Renault. It has been covered a bit before.

If you don't want to void your warranty then just wait.

Thanks very much. Anyone know about the tuning potential for the tce engine?

What is the tuning potential of the tce engine? I'd love a 2.0 litre dynamique but they are so much more expensive. As I already said, it would be stupid for me to go for a diesel. But thanks anyway. Also could I have the climate control/xenons/cruise added if I wanted to? Can/will Renault do it?

You get bigger injectors, a bigger turbo, more equipment, better seats, better trim etc. Much more tuneable. I'm looking used probably £4.5k plus whatever I get for my car (Prolly about £2k). A diesel would be silly as my trip to work is 3 miles. Used obviously.

Don't like the look of the Citroen although i admit it would be a good buy. The fiesta st looks a little too chavvy for my likings, plus it is noisy on the motorway because it does 3.5k+ plus revs at 70mph. But another good car. I've pretty much narrowed it down the the Clio III or Grande...

Because I can't justify the insurance on a RS. Not for a couple more years. I vary rarely drive fast. I just want something that is quiet and comfortable (reviews say clios are pretty good at that) and feels comfortable at overtaking (my punto makes me crap my pants whenever I try to overtake)...
