Typical yank motor. If its not leaking oil out of the engine and transmission, its not got any in :LOL:

Sad end to it. What mileage did it get up to?

Ideally yes replace full latch as i dont think the switch is available on its own. Part number 8200078950 can buy new oem from rpd or loads of 2nd hand on ebay.

Theres a microswitch in the latch on the boot which wears out, you need to replace that.

It would be a good idea to state what car and model. Clio2 172/182 does not use a crush washer its a dowty sealing washer.

Looks great. Nice turnaround from how it was.

Spotted on the motorist page on fb Nick, looking clean as usual(y)Would have popped down but in Turkey for 2 weeks.

Cheers mate appreciated. No rush to get it done to be fair, as im away on hol for 2.5 weeks and then it will be ages until i get round to fitting it. Ill fire you a pm when i get back if you want (y)

This one. Not sure if its what you need though, quite decent quality. https://www.halfords.com/tools/garage-workshop/axle-stands-trolley-jacks/halfords-advanced-3t-low-profile-trolley-jack-with-pad-563118.html?stockInventory=undefined

@Beauvais Motorsport cheers for the pics. I did consider welding too. I have a spare rack, would you consider doing it for me? Also interested in bearing upgrade.

Halfords advance one is not bad at all. Might be worth a look, and decent warranty

@Beauvais Motorsport have you pinned the torque dampener on stock rack for better feel when converted to epas. Im after mine doing on my trophy for better steering feel.

Big job. Spend the money on a better condition heater panel to save the heartache.

Orignal hpas or epas conversion?

Ph1 sender has the return pipe fitted, tank prob nigh on identical. Swap sender over for your current one

Small update Both clio's were looking very sorry for themselves after not been washed for ages, not had the time or energy on a mega diet before hols. Quick wash for both yesterday evening once temps had cooled down. Orange is a bit faded these days and Blue is a ten footer at best, but both...

Yep stone chips on outside and rot from the inside on the seam/joint between inner arch. Sadly to do it right needs chopping out and replacement metal so quite a labourous/expensive job to do. Do wonder what sill is like too and underside. Its done well for a 20 year old car though. Miles...

Looks like an honest example. Only downside is rust starting to creep on passenger side arch.

Engine out and rebuild it properly, or do it twice.

Quick blast out to Whitby in the nice weather yesterday.

Updates Blue clio plowing along as usual mileage 170k. Treated it to a pair of new Michelin crossclimates on the rear to replace the aging cracked cheapo tyres that have been on it since i got the car. The tyres that have been removed were almost new when i got the car 4 years ago, and ive...

No cam sensor on 182. With it being mapped for e85 its hard to say whats at fault, might need more enrichment on startup. We dont have e85 on the pump in the uk.

Tempted to do the hows my driving sticker on😆 That is a great idea, tempted

Updates. Chris @ efi sent a revised map over yesterday with some N75 duty removed so flashed it on today with MPPS. Took it out for a datalog and its better but still needs a bit more n75 duty removing between 4-5500rpm. Can be seen on the logs below where it is closing the throttle to reign...

The generic scanners are crap. Need extended data off clip to see whats going on.

Delete any codes before inspection. Seems a bit excessive if they scan the obd looking for faults if eml is not on. Every renault ive scanned, has faults lingering around in the background.

Good to catch up @Mr Underhill welcome to pop down any time. Your RB looked mint too. One of the best mk2 clios ive seen in a long time! The pole positions are a great choice, i want a set after sitting in yours earlier.

I use gunsons easi bleed too. I got my mrs to help bleed up the trophy clutch as was struggling to get a pedal. Had her pumping the clutch pedal, and pressure started coming up. Id failed to check the install and previous owner had not clipped the pipe in properly so she got a foot covered in...

Snap on will prob be able to activate abs block. I must have been lucky and my trophy bled up from fully dry with just the pressure bleeder without activating abs via clip. On my kangoo i had a hell of a job bleeding it up from dry pedal was long and soft. I ended up putting 4ltrs of fluid...

Proper sticker would be spot on as my number 1 looks shite :LOL:
