Right so I've never ever used a rotary polisher before, but keep finding myself becoming more and more interested in trying out a rotary polisher, to try and remove some scratches and also all the swirling from my Mk3 Clio. My problem is this, my insurance is due soon so this will be on a...

Anyone local to Pembury/Tunbridge Wells got a machine polisher they can let me use for a few minutes/use for me quickly? Used a touch up Paint pen on a few chips and it's not quite smooth with the paint, done quite a few now and smoothing them off with megs compound and a microfibre cloth is...

Got some LED sidelights off eBay, they were recommended alot on a thread on this forum with loads trying them and finding them excellent, but they both flicker. So, I contacted the seller and got some more sent out, and now they flicker too... Its not noticeable until I park up against my garage...

Okay so have a few questions! Didn't want to fill up every section of the forum with them so decided to put them all in one thread. Thanks in advance for answering, I appreciate there's a few! My car has rear brake drums, how often do the shoes need replacing? It's done almost 40,000 miles and...

I got some white LED SMD sidelights for my Clio Mk3, fitted with projector headlights, and now the headlights, fog lights, full beam, and cornering lights look really yellow :( So, as a noob to all of this, can someone recommend me some whiter bulbs? I'm happy with the light output of the...

Hi, Looked at my clio a while ago and the drains were blocked, submerging the wiper motor. Unblocked them and for a couple of months all was well, however now, my wipers have stopped working. The wipers slowed right down and only worked on their fastest setting for a while, but when you turn...

My window seal squeaks really badly when you open and close the drivers window, its so annoying! Embarrassing when you're sitting at the lights and its all quiet and you go to put your window up... Anyone got any ideas how I can fix this? A quick Google suggests silicone spray which I tried...

Okay so I took out the stereo, and plugged it all in and as far as I can tell it should work fine... But, when you turn the stereo off it still says the radio station/whatever it said before on the screen, and the Parrot kit won't turn on :( Help? Shouldn't have started this in my lunch...

Hi, My clio doesn't have one touch window switches on it at the moment, but I got some switches from a clio at the breakers for both drivers side and passenger side with the extra one touch bit. My question is this, can I simply connect up the new switches and have one touch windows? Do I...

Hi all, I got a touch up pen today, and while it's for a different colour car, I was wondering there seems to be a couple of bits of damaged laquer on the car, chips and scratches where the colours still there but it's quite a scratch, can I fill this in with the laquer? If so how would be...

Picked myself up a Parrot CK3100 kit from a Citroen at the breakers, and have a few questions. Where has everyone mounted the screen in their clios? Not sure where the best place would be! I assume I'd have to declare the kit to my insurance? Is the wiring all going to be right as its...

Hi, Got a Clio MK3, can anyone list every fuse in the car? Want to make sure I have a full spare set for if one ever blows! So far I have: 5A Mini Fuse 10A Mini Fuse 15A Mini Fuse 20A Mini Fuse 25A Mini Fuse Which ones am I missing? I know there's some larger ones in the engine bay Thanks

Firstly, sorry to keep spamming with loads of threads! Secondly, need to check a fuse in the clio fuse box by the steering wheel and noticed the door isn't lined up with the fuses! Anyone got any tips on how you can access these hidden fuses easily? Don't really want to take the whole dash...

Okay so for ages my window has been very on/off as to whether it would work or not, so I looked online and found a replacement TEMIC module thing on eBay, they showed a video of replacing this and showed it as inside the door, removed my door card etc and it isn't in the door the wires to into...

Replaced my headlight stalk earlier and all went well and was very happy! Then a van was just about to pull out of a driveway into my path, tried the horn and it didn't work! Double checked and everything appears to be plugged in right so ideas? It's a mk3 clio Thanks

Hey, I've got a Clio Mk3 extreme WITHOUT automatic headlights, and went to a breakers yard today and they had a Clio that was identical to mine, without the auto headlights function, but the stalk has the AUTO button fitted on the end? This confused me a little so I spoke to Renault parts...

Okay so i had an issue a while back where the headlights wouldn't turn on or off, they were just stuck on a faint dim light, that was a fun drive home! Never had that issue since, but it has recently been having difficulty turning the headlights on or off? You turn the stalk to on, nothing...

The story is as follows... I bought the car in July 2013 for £2495, its a 1.2 MK3 in Monaco Blue and a 55 Plate. I bought it from a dealer called FCS Trade Sales in Rainham, and before that it was owned by a woman who did very little miles, less than 30k between 2006, and 2013. The car looked...

Keep seeing this around, just wondered if the owners on the forum?

Okay so basically, when I change down into first/second the box feels like its quite hard to put into gear? If the speed then drops lower, it'll go in fine. A good example is coming to a roundabout, slow down to a suitable speed and go to put it into second and the gear stick wont go into gear...

Basically im at my dads which is very far from home for me and I need to get home tonight, and I know eurocarparts and other shops close in a short while! We thought we'd be clever and try draining the engine oil, well we went under the car and undid the "sump plug" which was the one through...

Just wondering, how many of you carry a spare wheel or do you carry something else like tyreweld instead? I have a mk3 1.2 so the wheels mounted under the car under the boot, but giving alot of consideration into taking it off the car as A) Everyone online says the wheels near impossible to...

The top bolt on my suspension mount needs taking off for the knocking fix washer but it's way too tight to undo! Can I just take this to a garage and have them use an impact gun to remove the nut? Im using the allen key in the top as mentioned Thanks

Got a weird question, my roof doesn't look very shiny? Looks kinda dull and I want to add some shine to it and protect the paint as it has a few tiny cracking spots appearing :( Would like to make the roof shiny and try and avoid the cracking getting worse or even better mend it so there's no...

Hey guys, Got a 1.5 tonne draper trolley jack for christmas from my girlfriends parents, and it seems to really struggle to lift the car up? Having never had a trolley jack I don't really know how much work is involved in lifting the car so is it normal to have to put a fair bit of strength...

Anyone know a good place to check if theres any recalls against my clio? People keep telling me about recalls for bonnet catches etc but I thought it was only for a MK2? Thanks Ethan
