Got way too many of these, Wife complaining she cant get to the washing . Anyone need a set of silver ones?

Im wanting to refurb some Turini wheels I have and at the same time get some decals put on. It would make sense to put the decals under the clearcoat. Problem is the wheels get baked at 180'c at the end to harden them. Would a decal be OK with this ? its a black decal so the heat wont change...

Ive had a few Clios over the years so thought I would share a few. First up is my first 172 MK2 RF51YDR . Bought this back in 2003 with 27K miles. Loved this car, was a rapid little thing. Ran this for years and only sold it when it hit 156K. Would love to buy this one back and restore it but I...

Was looking at car waxes and thought that Auto Finesse Illusion looked pretty expensive for what it was (£75 for 200ml). Obviously there are some obscenely expensive waxes too like the Xymol that comes in the glass case or whatever it is. Now on the Autofinesse website it lists some of the...

Just wondering who has the lowest mileage 172 /182. My latest one is on 24k -its a 55 plate 182.

EDIT title above is meant to say perfect fitting underseat sub.... I bought my 3rd clio 182 a couple of months ago and in previous cars I had an Alpine stereo with Bluetooth hands free integrated. I was now back to the standard crappy cabasse stereo and sorely missed having a decent stereo but...

Hi, Have been planning to upgrade the sound in my 182 for ages as I spend a lot of time driving around and need hands free bluetooth. I have been searching around the forums and think I am going to go for the following: CTSRN003 Stalk Adapter for Renault Clio / Kangoo / Megane Item Number...

Hi , Ive got a Milltek catback as my 182 exhaust and need to replace the exhaust clamp. Does anyone know if the exhaust clamp is the same as one Renault would sell or is the milltek exhaust bigger so needs a bigger clamp. cheers

Got a Ktek steel stealth exhaust and am having problems with the 2 bolts that join the cat to centre section. Every 2 weeks they seem to work themselves loose , and the exhaust starts blowing loudly. Tighten them up and its fine for another while till it happens again. Is there sometype of...

Im going away on Monday, going to be driving round france so thought id change the oil. I didnt have any problems initially, oil drained fine apart from dripping all over the under tray, got the fuel rail cover off, filter was a breeze to get off and replace. I did all this on a level...

Nice looking lowered silver 172, Yxxx XOL in the B&Q car park at 12 ish today.

I havent seen anyone else bring this up so thought id bring up the subject. I know none of us have even driven the new Renault Sport Clio but it is likely a few of us will buy one in the next year. Im not in the car trade or anything but what sort of savings do you think could be had on...

So, whos getting this tomorrow? Its got some great reviews and its WIFI enabled. Cant wait myself.

I took my 172 mk2 along to Renault in Aylesbury for a minor 48K service. Big mistake, huge. They made so many mistakes and overcharged me. To start with they used budget 15w-40 semi synthetic oil, I thought my car needed 5W-40 Fully synthetic. I argued for ages but didnt get anywhere on this...

Ive never had a car amp before but have noticed from all theones ive seen they are encased in a heatsink type alluminum enclosure. How hot do amps get as im guessing they need to dissipate a lot of heat. Also does this mean that you have to place your amp somewhere open so it doesnt over heat...
