@SharpyClio that's a very clean separation on the headlight lens - did you do it in the oven?

There is probably a bumper off guide on forum but this helps to see. I put tape along the bumper join just in case the bumper pops up as it can scratch the paintwork - similar can happen to the headlight as well ask me how I know

The plastic rod the goes in and out for height adjustment came loose in mine Depending on airbox setup you can get the motor out without removing the headlight. Removing the headlight is easier though. Unplug cable. Bend tab on the headlight housing away. Rotate to release from headlight...

🥲 The rest of the work is sound and the offer to sort on warranty there or at my local renault garage was there - will chalk it down to "it is what it is" The answer to your question is no, but I am trying trying to avoid any sh*t flinging

Lubricating the fork pivot stopped a lot of noise for me after a clutch change, failing that a noisy release bearing?

Got my s**t together and tackled the tensioner. I messaged TwoTechs and Terry gave me a call, I could get the tensioner replaced under warranty otherwise he gave me some tips on how to tackle removing the bolt The trick was to wedge a screwdriver between the tensioner and the mount to hold it...

Suffered exactly the same, new coils sorted me out. I dialectic grease them + use coil pullers and so far I have avoided snapping them again 🤞 Hope it's an easy sort

MCM just fixed up a right dog EDIT: I'm late

Never done it myself, I'm sure other people will have advice - but this YouTube vid from Stone Automotive might be useful:

@mattchurton Just bought a spare loom so should make that process even easier Thank you for the info, appreciate the help

Same 😅 commenting in case anybody can update in future

How many of you clicked on this thread hoping that there was a Clio being broken 👀

@FatRS I have to keep reminding myself it's a project car Hopefully my desire to learn remains greater than the desire to burn

Been flying round the Somerset countryside for a few hundred miles having a great time, but now back to planning and/or worrying about maintenance. To start off with I am not sure what the aux tensioner bushing is doing here. May need to give TwoTechs a bell. Only done 1K mile so far but not...

Exhaust hangers and clamp in good condition? (Back and mid)

https://cliosport.net/threads/clio-mk3-aliexpress-sat-nav-new-head-units-opinions.847217/ Some info in this thread, I have no idea myself but maybe something in here that's useful to you

Last little update for now. Was loosing first gear sometimes when stopping due to the stiff shift rocking around. As its a 3.0 it had bolts that would get in the way of a large o-ring. Also if I tighten the Stiff Shift down is squeaks loudly like a clown car made of balloons. Solution was to 3D...

Let me know if you do and what you want for them. They obviously still work... for now.... Will have to play the guessing game of how long 🤷‍♂️

Headlights out. The left headlight had a popped out adjuster but I replaced it anyway. The right side adjuster had blown into 12 pieces as well as the middle pop mount out of place... As there are mismatching bulbs I can only guess someone had a real hard time trying to replace the bulb while...

Time to look over the car while its off the road for a few weeks, interesting.... Also interesting... If anybody has sources to replace these plugs please give me a shout Also the clutch fork boot is loose, I wonder how much old oil has made its way in there Oh well, time to get the...

Cant answer for all insurers but Howdens told me that it would, went with Greenlight in the end - asked the advisor but he was too northern to understand over the :poop: phone line noise

Will probably sink a silly amount of money in and end up doing the same in a number of years... But that's a problem for then! Appreciate you dropping by, will give you a shout if anything a comes up - appreciate it

The 2118's look amazing, hopefully I can get through the other hundred things that need doing and get the brembo brackets shortened to fit them

Hopefully when @sUpErShOoTeRs 46 fully moves onto beemers and he splits the car I can have some panels off him 👀

After lurking for 7 years I have found myself in a position to do something stupid with my money. I could invest in a OEM spec Clio, keep it tasteful and sit on it as an 'investment'. Or buy something outrageous and hopefully have a lot of fun... The spec sheet is on the forum from some old...

@Frank1 no worries I have aligned the gear linkage a few times, in my experience it's a massive pain! Best of luck

I think the best thing to do is pull the gear linkage out of the gearbox from the circlip/pivot. That way you don't mess with the alignment of the linkage, hopefully when you reattach it to the box it still lines up If you are fully removing the subframe you should only need to remove the...

You will need to remove the spider mount on top of the gearbox (3 bolts), and the gear linkage of course, top mount and rear mount can be left in place if you are moving the sub frame. just remember to support the engine from below during/after

What springs are on the shocks? I'm sure sport springs are stiffer than 1.2, but most sport owners change to Eibach (sportline) to get more stiffness and drop, I run a set and enjoy them (on a 1.2) The shocks most likely won't fit on the front due to hub spacing, the rears are interchangable...
