So how come the 10mm socket doesn't go down there? Link would be appreciated please mate.

Yeah pulled the plugs out, 10mm socket doesn't fit down the hole so unlikely a 16mm would either.

Anyone know how to remove the spark plugs on a 1.2 Clio 16v 2003? I have a 10mm 3/8 socket. But can't get it down the hole. This is what my engine looks like. Looking down the hole I don't even know if I can see the nuts for the sockets to go on. Made me think I had to remove the circular thing...

It's been running for a good 10 minutes now and it's running nicely. Just the start up needed fuel.

Thanks @Budgie for that idea, now a case of now what haha

Okay after charging the car up for a bit, try the starting while spraying fuel into throttle body it's now started. Proving its not crank sensor. I was right it's not getting fuel. It's not running too good either, with foot nice and still he revs are bobbing up and down. While it's running...

Could I try my brother sensor on my car? I'm guessing the sensor is only available online and no where I could go buy one?

Nice one, will give it a go later. Cleaning the plugs, just a rag? As I don't have any kind of cleaner at the minute, any other alternatives?

The fuel pump primes like normal. Crank sensor has been cleaned, the magnet is fine too. Was an old kitchen cleaner bottle, it worked with water but not petrol, strange. found one that worked though. Haven't checked the plugs yet. Plan too tonight when my brother brings his socket round. What...

Yes nozzle was on I'm not a idiot it was just the bottle didn't work, used a different bottle it worked. Try starting while someone sprayed petrol in TB but that didn't work. What next?

Nope, that didn't work mate.

Struggling with the petrol in spray bottle now, not going through the tube to spray

okay decent cheers mate. Will give that a go while the battery still has some life in it.

It's cranking fine, battery seems good. I think I'll give that a go

Don't want to be thick but what's the TB and where do I find this? Spark plugs are nearly new so wouldn't think it would be them.

Won't start again. Crank sensor cleaned. Should I try jump starting? Any suggestions. Haven't got the correct spark plug socket.

If everything was running fine and fuel was being pumped then surely as the engines not running you would have a pure petrol smell? As the petrol wouldn't be burning. Checked all that, haven't got the right thing for the spark plugs! Cleaned crank sensor. About to try again.

Cheers mate! Seems quite a common fault with Clios not starting. But just so many different things it could be. I'll have a look, cheers.

clio won't start this morning. Runs fine but not firing up. It turns over fine but never fires up. Even doing full throttle there is no obvious smell of petrol from the exhaust, suggesting it's getting no fuel, where can the fuel pump be found? Any suggestions?

Anyone know where I can get a decent match of Pearl Black anywhere? Nv676.

What is a ballast? Ahh thanks mate I'll have a look around! Nice one cheers, I'll look for them!

So if I brought a set of xenon headlights what else would I need to do? I have no idea about these things.

So literally the blue vision have a blueish tinge and the White vision are whiter? I just didn't know because they are new if they were a lot better or anything.

What's the difference for Clio bulb upgrade? Which is better?

or for that matter, how about Philips whitevision? the newer range? they are very similar price to the blue vision, only about 40p different for h7 and h1 bulbs. anyone had any experience with either of these so far?

Osram cool blue intense or Philips bluevision ultra? whats the difference?

Decent, thanks a lot mate!

The Philips bulbs are they blue or white? Sorry for all the questions mate hope you don't mind helping! Any problems I might face with these bulbs? Thanks for your help really appreciate it!

http://www.autobulbsdirect.co.uk/H7-OSRAM-Night-Breaker-Unlimited-110-Upgrade-Xenon-Headlight-Bulbs-pair.html?bulb_search=car So would I be able to use these for a whiter bulb where I don't have to install loads of things? @McGherkin

That's all very clear thank you. So I have a standard 1.2 Clio 2003, I've put led's on the sidelights, they are nice white looking. What bulbs would I have to get as an upgrade to get them looking white like the sidelights? I'm a little thick with this but I want to do it correctly but without...
