Appreciate it.

I'll get on it then. Exhaust is lovely and raspy at 5k+ mate. Loving it tbh.

What can clunk on brakes? I can check them easy on the drive.

Still clunking. Getting it back on the ramp wednesday. Have had the dog one on and off. Can anything to do with the brakes cause a clunking sound? Is the only thing I havnt thought about but then it makes sense it does it when I'm coming to a stop, or slowing down and turning.

Stealth.

I will just take it to mick and get it all sorted out. At least its running and feels quick for the time being :) Backbox being changed tomorrow as well for a nice stealth. New tyres next Wednesday. Will have to do a proper meet soon. You going to css?

S J Auto Renault Specialists by my house. They have RS's there all the time. I know that counts for jack bit you would like to think they know what they are doing.

Ok, sound. Will have to save a few pennies then. Can they be timed up even with the belts doing about 3k since being changed?

Bur what if I beat you? Hahaha. £70 to sort it? How far is notts? I'm taking it.

I have always doubted it to be fair. Have spoke to mick and he said to bring it down to check but ive never got the time. I'm off work next week so I might book it in if you don't think its right on Saturday.

Ok, ive got you number nath. Might be a late one as I'm doing some work in the garden. So yours doesn't judder on idle? Might be my exhaust.

Btw Alex, that wax you sent me, does it ever run out? Have been using it for ages now lol, great stuff.

@N4TH4N come and have a go in mine. I need someone to drive it to put my mind at rest. Do any of yours bounce you up and down when sitting at traffic lights etc? The revs don't drop, it just judders.

Sort of still kicks. I don't really know, ive sort of got used to it. Induction kit definatley changes note at 5k. Doing just under 100mph in 3rd so I'm happy with that.

I havnt bought tickets yet as I don't know 100% if I'm about but I will meet you there if i do. More than likely I am. Anyone from wm having track time? While I'm here, when we going to the nickelodeon again? I miss it.

Change gear at 7k. You will be in front then :) On a serious note, they are just normal cars till you hit 5k. Loads of cars pull away from me but then 5k kick kicks in yo!

To be fair, it doesn't make a massive difference. Mine felt quicker before the map but was very lumpy when cold, which the map has improved a lot. Has the cold idle raised to 1100rpm and then drop to 1000?

McDonalds.

@dann2707 have you got the track booked for yourselves? I might be up for this. Car is playing up a bit atm though and MOT time at the end of the month. I doubt work will let me have a Friday off though :(

@Diagro did you ever solve this? Just done a search for dogbone mount and this came up. My car just feels a bit "loose" at the moment. Needs a good going over I think, havnt really refreshed anything in 12 months.

Will do that this weekend. Its got to be related imo.

Yeah, clutch is fine. Don't know if that clunking noise ive been on about has something to do with it.

yeah, generally. Mainly when your going to do a right or left turn and you drop it down to 2nd to do so. I'm not talking for 80mph in 3rd down to second. Im talking 40 down to say 20-30.

anyone else ever had problems shifting down into gears sometimes when going a bit to fast to do so? seems hard to select gears sometimes ive noticed recently. any ideas?

Even if you did bend ot back again, you wouldn't get the ridge in the middle to look right I don't think. Are there not any on ebay being broke local to yourself so you can pick it up? You could take yours off and give it them as part payment maybe? Couriers suck, ups have pretty much lost my...

I think that's past repair. (in my eyes)

To be fair, I didn't give it the beans because my mrs was in the car and she moans. I put it down to that.

I suppose. Everyone else who gets in it thinks its fast. Must just be me. New tyres going on this week as well so will help with a bit of grip :) Don't sell your Clio by the way you nutter.

Don't sell it. Car is spot on.

Been a while since I posted in here. Lately I feel down on power... I don't know if its ive just got used to the car now and it feels normal, or something is a-miss. As a gauge for speed, I'm hitting 60 in second gear and about 90 in third untill I hit the limiter. (not done this to many times...
