    Been lurking for a while, now a Clio 182 owner!

    Very envious! Exact clio I want to move two when I can justify something more than my 1.2!

    Collecting Cars Merc World

    Really annoyed I can't go to this, I work down the road in Weybridge. Very familiar with the area and Benz World, hope the event goes well and that there will be a next one.

    Front shocks Renault Clio 2005

    Fitted these last year to my 2001 1.2L 16v. Easiest way to tell (I think) is the bolt spacing to the knuckle.

    I textured that 3D model 😂 Never thought I would see some of my work on the Clio forum, of all places...

    Powerflex…is this normal?

    I remember seeing a thread in which the powerflex bushing had to be cut down as the bushing itself was too big for mount. Looking at your image, the left side had too much material and he had to cut it down

    172 Cup Third Brake Light

    Is it only the light that has gone? If so there are a few things that can be done: 1) The PCBs are the same in other Clio brake lights so you can replace the PCB only 2) Replace the PCB with a 12V red LED strip 3) Worth trying to clean the contacts. Mine wouldn't work properly until I cleaned...

    Are K-tec spacers safe?

    Echoing others here hub-centric spacers with longer bolts + correct torque (120Nm) = no issues here, run 20mm on the front and 15mm on the back with 16" 182 wheels

    CLIO 1.2 16V ENGINE HELP

    I checked the top mount with sockets, the bottom is from memory. I think the nut on the back of the dogbone is a size up from its bolt. I think I put an adjustable wrench on the nut and undone the bolt with a socket. (My socket set goes upto 20mm so it can't be larger then that)

    CLIO 1.2 16V ENGINE HELP

    Really easy, the dogbone is just two bolts under the engine. Unless you are really flexible you will need to jack the front up to get at them. If you end up doing the top mount you need to jack up the engine from the bottom to support it. I can grab bolt torques for you after work if you...

    Clio wheel help?!?!

    The centre bore (CB) of the wheel is probably too small for the Clio hub (Clio hub is 60.1mm). Grab a ruler and measure the gap on the wheel (circled red), anything less that 60mm is a no-go I'm afraid.

    Clio wheel help?!?!

    Welcome to the Forum. If the wheel won't stay in place it could be that the centre bore is too small to go on the hub? More info on which Clio you have and specific details about how the wheel is not fitting will help with diagnosis.

    Clutch pedal return spring dci

    Doing a quick google search for MK2 DCI pedal box brought this image up from an Ebay listing (https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/133752838086). Checking your vid it looks similar but I could be wrong, you can see the wider side of the spring near the back of the assembly. Hopefully somebody can jump...

    As someone who has no idea where that goes I would try your VIN number in https://partsouq.com/ and see if you can find the relevant illustration of where it lived

    Seeking Driveshaft Leak Advice

    Thank you for the advice everyone, priorities seem to be: 1) New metal clip + Keep box topped off and monitor 2) If it continues to leak (or more importantly if it gets worse over time) fit a new genuine Renault boot 3) Then if the new boot doesn't sort the issue replace the driveshaft

    Seeking Driveshaft Leak Advice

    Noticed a build up/splatter gearbox side of my passenger driveshaft. Can't see any tears in the boot and it seems to coming out the side, down the shaft while splattering on the steering rack and frame. (Wheels at full lock to the right when image taken). Metal clip isn't loose, can rotate it...

    CLIO 1.2 16V ENGINE HELP

    You can just about see behind them, lots of room at the front as you probably know. Grab hold of the engine while off and cold (best grabbing something metal rather than the plastic inlet) and give it a shake and see if it moves. I have replaced my mounts recently and there is very little...

    CLIO 1.2 16V ENGINE HELP

    Is it affected by direction of travel or incline? How old are your engine mounts? If performance isn't affected it could be something hitting something it shouldn't. My heat shield on the firewall came loose and rattled on the back of the engine block, also my exhaust has rattled in its mount...
