Dad's got them on his Audi and it annoys him big time, always says it gets tight in the corner of your eye and distracts him, but to be fair he is new to the car so hasn't got used to it much

Driving Ok but feels sluggish compared to usual, going to do AA in the morning as it's a long drive home and I just wanna go to bed. Car had its belts changed recently, could this be it? I think part of the noise is coming from the belts, the hissing from a spark plug and it seems to be shaking...

Any idea how to upload it from my phone? Sitting pulled over at the min cos headlights are stuck on dimly not full so can't see 100%

Have you read my second post? It's shuddering around alot and doesn't seem to want to sit idle without feeling like it'd going to cut out any minute, and quite nervous about the loud hissing noise and the kind of belt or turning noise? Sounds like a chugging sound and im miles from home.

They're not on either just stuck on dim, and it seems shudder when sitting idle and often shakes violently like it's going to stall. Has a weird sound to it recently like somethings spinning round and a slight hissing from under the bonnet that just started, going to try new spark plugs tommorow...

Out in my clio, headlights are the projectors and won't turn off at all? Tried moving the stalk in literally every combination possible, opening the door, and locking it and they do go slightly dimmer when off and locked but refuse to turn off! Gotta go out early tommorow morning and need the...

Can you see them and unblock them without taking the cover off under the windscreen do you know? Not gone out to look in the dark yet!

Hi folks, Got a sloshing noise under the windscreen of my clio, im assuming theres a drain under there for the windscreen thats been blocked? Is this a common fault and if so any idea how to get the cover off and fix it? Thanks

Hi, Is changing the MK3 sidelights a bumper off job? Got the projector headlights fitted but not sure how to go about changing the sidelights. Also, what kind of sidelight LED bulbs would you recommend? Got some 1W LED ones at the moment but not fitted, not sure if these would be bright enough...

Using 5W40 fully synthetic in my 2006 MK3 extreme

Nope didn't go ahead with it as planned on that day but was shown every step. Will be doing it ASAP and will try to stop being annoying to you all! Im going to buy cliosport membership and if there isn't one then ill write a guide when I do it for other people new to cars with a 1.2 and an...

5w40 from Halfords on the offer they've got currently (4 litres for a tenner and it's at the renault specs), got the washer and the plug key literally got everything but the filter that I need by 12 today so Im gunna find out what brands ecp has and get one of them, likely the crosland one at...

Yeah haha sorry ill quit the urgent ;) just keen like a child at christmas to get it all sorted ASAP so I can stop stressing about the car. Hopefully soon enough it'll be sorted and stop draining my wallet and surprising me.

Haha sorry guys, just had literally nothing but hassle recently with this car just keen to make sure something actually goes right with it for a change, starting with making up for the service it had bodged this morning with a mechanic in my family who's teaching me bit by bit loads to do with...

It's an oil filter so surely that's important? Bought an air filter already went for a crosland one but the oil filter I figured is more important

It's an oil filter so that's why I'm unsure because of how important the oil is, its quite urgent because someone in my family's going to show me how to change the oil and filter this morning and I need to get the filter for 12 and can't ask him about it before then where it will be too late anyway

Literally cant find any info! No Renault garage anywhere near me either to get a filter, thinking of just Reserving the premium brand one and hoping it's a Bosch or other familiar make. Any advice for tommorow would be amazing! New to all this but keen to learn all about my car :) Edit: okay...

Thanks for that :) Gonna break out the manual in a sec but may buy 8L as for some reason its cheaper than 4L and 1L so would be worthwhile incase!

Thanks guys :) Love this forum! Bought the filter last night/early this morning after seeing your messages and am going to fit it when im free :) New to this but keen to learn how to service my own car ASAP! Merry Christmas!

Looking to get some oil to change mine in the 1.2 clio mk3 extreme, can anyone advise me what type I need? I know I need 5L, and fully synthetic is the best if im right so im looking for that. Im choosing between 5w30 and 5w40, these seem to be what are recommended on halfords website and...

Thanks it has, more wondering is that a good filter? There's loads of other makes for more, and less money and I have no idea what the difference is! Any help is appreciated :) eurocarparts is the ideal place to get a filter for the car, deciding between that and their "premium brand" filter for...

My car hasn't been serviced in ages and looking to get it done ASAP, got some friends who are mechanics and can help but gonna do the air filter myself to save some cash in the morning. Is this a good filter? Just looking for a fairly standard replacement really nothing special. Mines a...

I was told on the MK3 the trip computer says "SERVICE DUE" when a service is soon, and the spanner only lights up when something is physically wrong requiring a service immediatly?

Was off road but on tarmac, around 50 but fast acceleration and braking late, changing gear alot later. Slight hissing sounds like its coming from the main area of the engine, with no tools I can't really check any further! Mates dad who is an ex mechanic is checking it over on Sunday, any ideas...

Can never seem to get my Clio into and out of full beam easy, no matter how i pull the stalk always takes several attempts? Anyone else experienced this? Thanks
