"The engines got to much pressure " wtf !!!!!! Even if the engine had "to much pressure" when its running thats the job for the wastegate to limit the boost/pressure Sound like bull mate.

well done Renault :banghead:, what was the weak part of the gearbox then ?

f**k no mate. Dont use a wire brush on ya alloys for god sake..just sandpaper. Lol..

The car in question is now sorted mate and looking better than ever

Just soak it over nite using either brake fluid or diesel . Then mold grips in the mo

thinners. Wire brush and wire wheels and sandpaper. It takes a while mate. that means alot mate. Many thanks. Thats what its all about. Hopefully other clio fans will get some motivation from this and do it them selfs like i did. the best way to learn is to do it your self. P.s note...

Yes i do know mate. I was talking like he was going to.do it himself. Easy job.

Just check for play. But then for the sake of 20 or 30 squid u may as well Ben

I mite sell, I mite not, see what happens, but its not about the money TBH its just about doing something I love and seeing the end result from what I had in the beggining

well ive got it all just incase I or the buyer ;) wants it back in there

Nice mate. Fun little prodject. what drive shafts and hubs u using ?

Sorry m7. My bad. i really found it hard to get replacements at a sensible price. In the end dealer charger me 1.60 something . Only needed 4 anyway

U proberbly can. But i was lucky as my engine was already out and gearbox off

get ready to round some of the bolt heads off as well, I had to use a chisel to get some off, and only renault sell them as they are a stupid M5 thread. If u round off the ones that sit on the right hand side of the engine then maybe gearbox will have to come off to get behind the fly wheel...

yes mate. That was sorted ages ago. Thank fook

I could nto comment on what I would change them to as I havnt got a clue but maybe TSW venoms lol but maybe something plain, like a dished 5 or 6 spoke
