you past me, i was broken down on the roundabout :( should have said hello, i could have used the company!

driving along today, and heard a bang, followed by a noise that sounded like bouncing metal as if something had falled out. Upon slowing to a hault, the NSF wheel locked up, and refused to budge. really needed to going, so managed to get rolling again, and continued until i could get off the...

The owner of this car works at a shop at the top of my road. So everytime i go up my road, ive seen this car slowly evolve! it started life as an odysee blue (i think) clio grande, and now it looks like this! you can kind of see the origional colour at the edge of the bumper! it...

is the name of one of the rallys in the FIA european championship, was great fun to watch, and took these snaps of clios and thought id share them with you guys! i am aware that my photography skills leave a lot to be desired, but i did my best!

While driving along, ill go over a bump and the speedo will die, just return to zero, and the tripcounter stops counting up. sometimes it will come back to life after 10 minutes, but most of the time it will stay dead. slowing down to zero, and pulling away again usually makes it come back...

Engine seems like it's getting too hot, it smells like burning under the bonnet (and coming through the vents) the fan comes on and stays on after the engine is turned off. the water temperature on the dash however stays at a normal level both water level and oil level are between min and...

are there any companies out there that still do this?? at 21? would be very handy to have it on my policy!

Can it be done without raising the car?? if i raise the car, and simply lower it back down after, it will put the tracking out! im really not sure how tracking is done on car so not sure how easy it is to do on low cars! the main problem arises because the car is a bit lower than low...

Used to unlock and start fine. then all of a sudden, it is completely dead, nothing at all. Bumped it and left it on for a few minutes, park it on my drive and leave it for a week or so, go to start it again, completely dead again, not even enough charge to unlock it! so i put it on...

Is the steering rack the same in the 1.2 ph1, and ph1 172, and even ph2 172?? will a ph2 1*2 steering boss fit a ph1 172?? thanks guys

I need the bolt that connects the hub to the ball joint, i rounded both off when fitting new hubs so i stole them off my spare clio, but not i want the spare one working so i need to get them. Where is the best place to get them from?? do places such as autocare and euro sell the bolts on...

couple of rolling shots from the way home from FCS it was bumpy, but otherwise perfect :) Just thought id add some clean pics,

i want to see how far my coilovers are from the bump stops, however its quite low and the bumpstops are all the way up inside the chassis, and obviously the wheel is in the way, jacking the car up means the suspension isn't carrying the weight of the car! can i take the wheel off, and slowly...

Finally on coilovers, Maybe a bit too low for some peoples tastes, but I love it! and believe it or not, only the splitter catches the floor, no tyre scrubbage either! win! Bearing in mind one wheel is in the gutter! And a couple more, Plans are to get some silvervisions and...

tips on getting the track rod end off the hub, all it seems to do when i undo it, is spin the bolt on the ball joint. I and not actually unscrew, probs because the thread on the end is abit rusty. how are you meant to get the nut off without using an impact gun?? thanks

Has anyone got any good tips on how to remove the hub from the ball joint, im having a hard time doing it, i can get the nut off, but the bolt seems well and truley in there :( any hints would be grand!

Did a search and couldnt find anything :( what tyres are meant to be on a standard 182 with both cup packs?? thankyou

When i brake hard, the rear brakes lock up long before the fronts. The fronts are only half on and the rears will lock up, causing the back to become very unstable under hard braking. ive had to remove what looks like a load bearing valve from the back because of the lowness, and the rears...

These used to be an event on the social calender a few years ago, they were on bank holiday monday, always meet up at lakeside (thurrok) services around 7pm, and move on from there used to be a mental turnout! some really nice cars sometimes too, among the seats of bodykits and chavs. does...

i have 52mm bolt spacing on my hub, if i bought a set of coilovers with a bolt spacing of 58mm, is there any reason why i couldnt mill the bottom hole 6mm toward the top one, then perhaps weld a washer over it to stop it moving, if the bolts are done up tight, and the top bolt is still...

saw you down the m25 or m3 yday (23rd), noticed the cliosport sticker on the bumper and thought id post a spotted thread lol.

Are they interchangable?? say if i wanted to put some 16v hubs on a 1.2 8v is there anything stopping me?? other than the obvious fact that the shock bolts wont meet up, thats not an issue in this case. doing it to give me more choise in second hand coilovers, and bigger brakes would be...

Sunflower ph1 172 spotted down southend seafront tonight, had a sticker with joshwa on the window. looked pure sex tbh, also saw other cars saying R.I.P josh172? not sure if the two are linked but it seemed odd.

Took a long drive yday, and now when traveling at slow speed, it clunks. It happens going over big bumps (speed humps), but also when changing gear, seems a lot of resistance when sliding from first to second (didnt try any othe gears) anything anyone can suggest? Cheers

bit of a force to go down the gears?? any ideas??

A 1.2 8v mk2 ph1 clio RN Grande. i tried to measure, but got confused if i was meant to measure from the centre of each hole, or by the closest edge. so if anyone could advise, it would greatly help.
