Ive had Gaz GHA's and they were perfectly fine. I now run KW v2's which are an order of magnitude better in terms of damping and ride quality. I wouldnt ever suggest buying Ktec's coilovers you will very quickly regret doing so. definitely wait or save for something better, you really do get...

I had this issue and changing the throttle body seemed to fix it. I had a spare engine so swapped various bits to try fix the issue. Wouldn’t have guessed the throttle body was the culprit but I haven’t seen the problem since.

The squeak will be a pulley or the tensioner. The whirring could be the power steering pump but could also be belt related. Sounds like it could do with a service.

I was told its an engine out job

I’m not sure how competitive a child would be under 2000m of Arctic Ocean.

8200272053 is apparently for a mk2 1.0L https://shop.euroimpex.lt/en/dalis/110321/front-bumper-spoiler-kit

The drop link in the boot... :unsure: Also he's done well to get 227hp out of standard injectors. Didnt realise that was a thing.

I had the same problem the other end. And the second time around of trying to get it off i used a combination of heat and penetrating fluid and it eventually came loose.

Replacement engine would be the cheapest solution i wouldnt entertain the thought of getting the current one rebuilt. Im not a mechanic but im not sure i understand why a garage would take the starter motor off the car? having said that i guess you have to start to diagnose a problem from...

Only two logical options - Strip it for parts - Turn it into a track car

Sat for 8 years.. can’t imagine it’s good for anything other than scrap.

Worth checking the earth strap at the back of the gearbox underneath the air box isn’t loose. The car won’t start if it’s loose.

The throttle body makes an odd noise I suspect it’s that.

For that price i'd want it to have AST's and throttle bodies.

Group buy im in! 1. Nick

Some epic corner cutting to be seen here. Scary to think someone paid to have this work done.

Having owned a 182, 200 and now several years later a 172 Cup i prefer the Cup the most.

Ive had the wheels nearly fall off my car more times than i care to admit! im not good at stuff.. it doesnt stop me trying tho

Sounds like a wheel is loose.

Are you looking at the bottom of the gearbox, seeing fluid and assuming it’s leaking from above? Renault gearbox’s are designed to lose/leak fluid as a way of self lubricating.

The "new" one ive just put on my car did this and i thought it was odd but it works fine.

I use the horse shoe to put the inlet cam timing slightly out so when you tighten the dephaser it pulls the cam into the correct final position. Its obviously not the correct procedure but it works for me.

Dont spose you see bubbles in the coolant expansion tank when the car is running?

The centre is silenced but i cant see a cat in those pics.

This may help if you havent seen it. https://cliosport.net/threads/laguna-cup-racer-hubs-confirmation.814376/

I think you raise at least 2 valid points here. The first takes me back to the time I lost a dock side bet and was forced at gun point to pleasure a chimp dressed as an Asian businessman. Thirdly it takes 2 to tango! That car was upside down when I got here and as for your grandmother? Well...

06 Clio's were a nightmare for (slightly) leaking oil from what appeared to be the head gasket.

You take a cash offer on that?

Thats fair enough. I know everyone is different but i personally prefer to use a cheaper oil but change it more often. If you are after a decent oil ive heard Royal Purple is about as good as it gets. https://www.rivalmotorsport.co.uk/royal-purple-api-5w40-fully-synthetic-performance-engine-oil
