seen alot of 1.2s on here recently and it's inspired me to actually put some money and effort into my car!
bought it for £2000 about 6 months ago, already had 92'000 miles on it.. i know i was ripped off and should have paid half of that.. but anyways!:weary:
first mod was of course, the...
think i'm going to take it down a garage at the weekend to get it checked over, pretty sure it is the clutch though:( too much redlining it trying to keep up with the boyz and drag races from the lights. (only joking, i'm not that guy;)
any chance of it getting worse very quickly? it doesn't do it everyday but it is atleast once a week i would say. got a lack of money atm, ( stupid tax office over taxing me by about £600:( so can't really afford to get it done atm)
i think when the light comes on it confirms the car is indeed.. french. sorry mate i know stuff like thats annoying haha;) can't help you, but can make a joke of it;)
i've got a pioneer 360bt and love it! think theres the 380bt out now for just under £80, don't think its got a cd player though:/ pioneer as a brand though, its been great! good screen too! displays plenty of characters at once!
well i've got a fli sub from halfrauds fitted in my little clio, and i know most people will hate, and i know its a crap brand, but tbf its better than i would expect! so i'd say if you can get some fli ones, but tbh any speakers in the door will sound better than the oem renault ones, if you've...
so basically some times while pulling away from junctions, lights etc.. the car will begin to pull away, but when it gets to about 3k revs then it stops pulling and feels as if i haven't got it in gear? if i change up it does the same, revs like mad without actually moving, usually have to put...
can i twist the two exposed earth wires together and put them into the same spade connector? sorry im not very electrically minded..
Oh wait, because its a pin thats going to connect to the earth wire, how would i go about getting the other black wire also connected? can i run the black wire...
Tested it:
Blue - Lighting Positive
Black&Pink - Earth
Yellow&Red - 12V Power
So its all hooked up, but what about the earth from the new unit? can i strip the black wire and just have it run into a empty connector block? thanks mate
so I've bought a new (universal) 12v socket to fit into my mk2 clio, as mine has broken :( but I'm having a bit of trouble with the wiring?
The original has 3 wires running to it, (brown, blue and yellow/red)
where as the new one has a red and black cable? The red having a spade...
So I picked up a sport interior yesterday from someone of the bay, not sure if they're on here, had a sound looking 172 though.. Anyways here's some pictures!
The middle bolt took about an hour to undo, as someone had mashed it before:(
No seats;) still rough as toast inside though...
So I know I just need to Jack it up and remove the 4 bolts, but what about the wire? I dont think I've got seat air bags because it doesn't state air bag on the side nearest door, so can I just remove the wire underneath and take the seat and runners out? Going to collect some tonight so may as...
Not being funny but show me where I said I wanted 2 fronts?.. Got 2 mid range tyres fitted for £109 with tracking done from kwik fit as I needed to go in to town, I'm sure they dont have a decent reputation as they're a big chain but no where else would do them at that price
Need 2 new tyres as mine are slightly illegal atm.. Where's a decent place to go? Dont need amazing tyres but then again dont want them needing replacing again in a few months! Budget of around £120 fitted for front and rear. Thanks alot! :D
Think my clutch is on its way out so need to get it sorted soon, does anyone know of a good garage within 20 miles of Banbury? Also anyone know what sort of price I'll be looking at paying for tbe clutch? 1.2 mk2ph2 clio. Many thanks!:)
Coming back from college down the m40 and managed to hit 110 with 3 passengers and 10kg+ of luggage. Bearing in mind it's a 1.2 does this seem right? Wasn't downhill so wouldn't be the momentum, but this was at about 5k, could probably push it to 115 if I hadn't of s**t myself
