Washed the car today and seing as the sun was shining I decided to have a go at cleaning the engine bay, only spent a couple of hours on that and the wash combined so it's not immaculate but it's an improvement, had to give up after a while as my hands were starting to freeze up. Before...

Just wondering if anyone can advise the best way to go about removing a couple of rust spots on the wheel arch? I touched them up a few weeks back but only lightly so it seems to have come off with the air being fairly moist and what not. I'm thinking of taking it to a bodyshop but not sure...

This is the first time I've been able to get some decent shots of the car, would've done it sooner but it neeed x amount of fixes plus everyone knows what a standard clio looks like so I now feel the car is at a stage worth taking pics. Next up, Apex 40mm...

Finally my first REAL mod, a set of 172 alloys in good nick with Continental tyres courtesy of Ben_Stevo172. Lovin the fact that they are 7J, holds the road a lot better now. :D I have noticed there is very little clearance on the front from the damper, literally about 2mm if that so...

I'm considering getting my wheels painted professionally in a darker colour but I'm unsure what I like best, I kind of like dark wheels on a dark car but too dark and you can't really see them which defeats the point of having alloys in the first place so just wondering what everyone else...

Is this what's called the dogbone mount/stabilizer bar/rear gearbox mount? Also when will a 1.4 16v require a new timing belt?

I got the clio serviced today and the mechanic notified me that the gearbox mount has excessive play, the mount itself is okay but the bush is worn so I'm wondering how much it will cost from Renault and if anyone knows any alternative sources to buy one from? I'm also after two new front...

Just a quick question what is the name of the bolt that has a thread on the end of it that is used to secure the spare wheel and the little kit to the body of the car? I ask this as mine is missing one and the wheel annoyingly jumps about over nearly every bump or if I let the clutch up too...

The fingertip control thingymajiggy has seperated from it's place and is only being held in by the wire connecting to it. I have tried fitting it back in but it doesn't seem to want to clip on or anything and I can't see any damage to any of the parts so I took a couple of pics to see if...

Finally got myself exactly what I wanted, a Mk 2 Ph 2 Clio 1.4 16v Dynamique+ in Pearl Black. This is now my second Clio hence the title. Only one photo atm from the dealers: Couple of cosmetic jobs to get done on it and will put it through a full service on Monday although dealer did get...

My friend has a mysterious sound coming from around the engine bay area and can only be described as a sort of scratching sound which gets considerably louder under braking, we think it is the brakes but not sure what exactly it could be as the brakes still perform well so just wondering if...

This is a nooby question but what is this part as I am thinking of getting them replaced, too rusty for my liking, or is it just part of the rear axle?

Not sure if this has been posted before but basically when I try to start the engine it will just keep turning over but won't fire so I have to keep locking and unlocking the car and trying again to eventually get it to start and when I do it idles quite eratically. I was told that it is a...

I replaced all the bulbs in my headlights the other day to ones with a blue tint and got the job done in about an hour. Job was successful, however the dipped headlight bulbs I don't think are in correctly especially the passenger side as a firm knock and it is out of place. They do stay in...
