It'll be suspension related.

Sorry not used one but looking at the specs at 45nm's of torque it seems a bit limp wristed. But i guess it depends on what you want to use it for? It won't budge wheel nuts like my 400nm's makita Impact driver but I'm sure it would handle interior bits.

Hi guys I'm looking to do the big service on my 172 Cup. Cam belt, Aux belt, water pump and dephaser. Is this kit right for the 172 Cup...

Lol at the Renault quote! Did someone just smack a calculator with there hand to generate a price.

Didn't they all turn into brown stains on driveways?

In Manchester if they want your car they'll wake you up with a knife to your throat and take the keys. Golf R's are popular.

These are my thoughts. what are your top 5 most tedious vehicles?

Was this purchased from eBay? I see a lot of eBay clios making 200+ bhp with light breathing mods.

For me the Clio 200 (cup) only made sense when it was on ( or some where near) the limit. In that scenario it was the most rewarding car I've ever driven. 98.9% of the time I hated almost everything about it. These days I drive a 172 cup but dream about K swapped civics! What's not to love!

I think 230's a pretty conservative/realistic figure I've seen eBay adds come close to 300 ponies with light breathing mods. The guy seems legit to me. As already pointed out fan belt water pump is a huge job and often over looked. Bargain at any price.

When in Rome!

Good effort! I can't see that being anything other than a glitch in the matrix.

Checked my power steering fluid levels. Then dropped the cap down the back of the engine like a butter fingered r****d! The air box had to come out before I found it.. Good times!

5k to spend on a Clio I'd be buying the 194bhp Cup that's in the for sale section!

My money's on government surveillance! If they ask you didn't hear it from me..

Also which ever you choose hunt around for each part individually it's so much cheaper than buying the sets they sell.

I use one of these for scaffolding http://www.mytoolshed.co.uk/p1096346/Makita_DTW285Z_18V_LXT_Li-Ion_12in_Brushless_Impact_Wrench/product_info.html?utm_source=googleversafeed&vfsku=1096346&gpla=pla&gclid=CIfxpsmU19MCFSIo0wodftMBUw You'll need a charger and battery so add £60-100 depending on...

Changed the clutch over the weekend. Today I tightened all the stuff that was left loose. Tomorrow I might try and find out where the "Extra" bolts go that were left over from the rebuild.

Job done. As we started taking the box out, realised we had room to fit the clutch. So didn't need to have it all the way out. Bargains. Next on the list.. Leaky power steering pump! The joys.

Sound that's pretty much what I wanted to hear! Ta muchly

Halfway through a clutch change just wondering how much I need to lower the passenger side of the subframe. I've loosened the driver side sub frame bolts and I've dropped the passenger side around five inches. Anyone know how far is too far? Cheers ta

Not quite want you want but I can't do Ps http://www.cliosport.net/threads/grey-182.640997/

This happened to my 182 getting of the m5 portishead junction. Got it towed to Avonmouth, had it time-serted or heli-coiled (can't remember) had the car back the next day sorted for around the £70 quid mark. Would love to see a Renault quote for this repair. Full rebuild 30+ hours labour...

Weight reduction will see a good increase in all areas.

Can't really fault the garage as the dephaser isn't a part that shows up on any service schedule. I'd be asking CS for ideas on local Renault specialist. Dan in Glastonbury isn't a million miles away but I'm sure there are others.

The fact that the cars mint would even out the fact that it's a cat c for me.

Im looking at that tire shine and thinking.. lipstick on a pig!

Will be paying him a visit for cambelt, dephaser and water pump when funds allow!

Make sure you at least look into the option to buy your car back of the insurance company. Could be a nice cheap strip job!
