It's an orange tow strap actually :p lol and it came with the yellow calipers so hopefully get them changed to black or orange for a theme. But unsure on the tie strap if I'm honest :-/ As for the gearbox well I'm getting a clicking sort if vibration when turning right. So changed the drivers...

Hey folks Had my phase 1 a few weeks now. Not the best start with it maybe needing a gearbox :-/ but ill bash on and hopefully get it perfect. Here's a few pics of it de-stickered and after its first clean. Needs a good going over with my machine polisher but no time this weekend. Anyway...

Bump Anyone? Its getting worse I think :(

Hey folks Thought I might get more replies in this section. Heres the original thread http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?662178-Clicking-noise-when-turnin-right Basically when I turn right at above 30 mph(sometimes under aswell) I get a funny clicking/ticking/knocking noise coming...

Done a search and read it could be the top gearbox mount? Anyone think this is a possibility? If so how much are they and what's the part number?

Bump! changed the shaft today for a known good one and noise is still there. Also swapped rear wheel to the front and noise was still there too. Any suggestions? Really need this sorted ASAP :(

Hey folks Bought my phase 1 172 a few weeks ago and just started this noise. When I'm turning right it makes a clicking sort of noise. I can feel it inside the car also. Gets faster with speed aswell. Feels like its coming from the drivers side also. Was told its probably the outer cv joint...

Hey folks My clio came with no handbook etc that's usually in the glovebox. It wasn't there when the last owner bought it either. So could anybody tell me what books I need to get my hand on? eBay have a fair few for clios for sale but I'm unsure on what one is for my car. It's a 2000 phase 1...

All sorted. I fitted the new cable (which is very easy btw) and my idles perfect :) Thanks for the help :)

Will clean the icv and replace the cable and hopefully that'll be it sorted, Anyone know a timescale for fitting it? And how difficult?

Where about is it in the bay?ill have a look when I get home but just to make things easier

I'll strip it down proper and see what's what. Will also fit the cable tomorrow night. How long does it normally take? By a new idle valve do you mean a new throttle body? If so how much are these from Renault? Cheers

Hey folks Not long got my phase 1 and just sorting out a few niggly problems. Next on my list is the sticky idle. I've read about cleaning the throttle body which I did last night. Went a drive and it's still the same. Im going to remove it again an possibly strip it down, clean all the...

Got the car booked in on Thursday with a good local place. So I'm going for 1.5 degree neg camber on the front. 5 minutes toe out. Anything else or just standard for all other setting if they are adjustable?

Booked it in with pro grip for Thursday at 3.15. Will see how it goes. Since its needing camber set up its £57. Tenner cheaper than Hypertech. Will see how they compare lol Cheers for the recommendation

Yeh was either there or Hypertech. They set up my RS and were great Ive got another annoying problem. The car only came with 1 key but the button doesn't work. So I'm after another one. I've read that some clios just need the blade cutting on a new key and they'll start the car. Is this the...

Lol mine is pretty terrible to drive right now due to the suspension not being set up correctly. Everything was fitted but since it was never insured/taxed the guy never got it set up properly. Don't think anywhere nearby is open tomorrow if anyone know?But early next week it should be done and...

The body works not 100% mint aswell but for its age it's pretty good. It'll be better after the stickers are removed and it's been machine polished

Yeh that's what I thought. It spend all it's time in bits since November so had a lot of the guys time in it aswell. For the cash I'm happy with it do that's all that matters lol The manifold on the RS was dearer than my whole clio lol

81k mate Yeh I know but the geo is a proper mile out :(

So do you think it was a good buy at £1700?

The guy I bought it from is also called aldo on here lol. Aldo172 I think. Would be good to meet some local owners

Baring in mind the parts and mods have all done less than 6 miles, yes 6 lol

Tbh I think I paid top money for this one. But considering the mods and parts that have been replaced it was good IMO. It came with £2k of receipts not including a few the guy had lost. Plus the receipts were at cost price as he worked in a parts place so got things very cheap. I'd estimate the...

Mk 1 mate running around 360 bhp with all work done by me. It's my baby lol

I bought it from Hamilton aswell lol

Falkirk mate :)

Hey folks Been on here a little while looking for a cliosport. I was using a 1.2 Clio as my daily to keep the miles down on my mk1 focus RS but wanted something a little faster to keep me happy. So I found the car for me. It's a black phase 1 with 81500 miles on it. It's going to see done...

Hey folks Bought myself a nice phase 1 tonight with some good parts fitted. The last owner hasn't done any miles on the suspension really and not had the geometry set up. On the way home it was very shaky and vibrating quite a lot at high speeds so it's definitely needing set up. Got a local...

It was a lifting eye loose in the engine bay(wasn't even for a Renault I don't think). But once that noise was away you could hear the rear problem, a massive blow from the exhaust somewhere so have the car a miss at its current price Thanks for the help guys
