I had a 1.2 8v authentique when I was learning to drive, its now my brothers, I wouldnt say they are rare. They are rediculously cheap to insure as insurance group 2 and as its the most basic Clio, its probably the most reliable. Its probably the slowest clio they do in the mk2ph2 form. I had...

Also have a look to see if it has sensors on the brakes, look for the abs rotors/rings.

Hard to say, how long does it stay on for, is it only when the engine is cold?? It could be a sticky solonoid on the starter motor.

As above its the 2nd lambda connector. Some ph1s only had 1 connector anyway, later ones had 2. Id just wrap the end up in electrical tape to protect it.

NGK PFR6E-10 are the ones you should be using.

The top manifold to inlet is 7700109906 The inlet to block is 7700114203 Both £4.69

Its normal.

Ph1s have longer centre sections (as they have a shorter cat). The difference is about a inch and a half. Does it bang the rear axle??

My brother is learning to drive, he has just bought a 1.2 Clio authentique, he had a go in my 172 once, he sat in the car and slammed the door shut that hard that the plastic door trim came off. So that was the end of that lesson.

Try resetting the automatic cable adjuster by disconnecting the cable from the clutch fork pulling it out as far as it will go, then press the pedal down as far as it will go and stick the cable back on the fork.

Its a lot of work for something thats never really used. I think some cars will have the wiring in ready some wont. On a mk2ph1 i doubt it.

Check service history for cam belt and aux belts (iirc there are 2 aux belts on that car).

Nice work, where did you buy the manual from??

Look what Renault did to this poor vee :clown:

Its a very common, problem. Do a search. Basically renault do a kit that fixes it. You can also buy some foam pads to wrap round all the contact points. The sunroof can rattle at the front where the forks slot in the car. Also the handle can rattle or creak where the roof rests on the bar.

Ticking timebomb.

All modern cars are the same. They dont make em like they used to.

Guide to lower the subframe. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=313845

The steering rack is attached, if you pull the frame down too much it will pull the power steering pipes and may cause damage. You prob only need to let it drop half an inch. Theres a guide somewhere in the guides section which includes lowering the subframe.

Sounds like the garage may have missunderstood where they fit. The fronts go from the solid line in the arch where the bracket is to the caliper. The rears go from the lines under the car to the axle (not to the calipers).

Does it foul the subframe?? You may have to try lowering that a tad.

Your old bearings will be destroyed getting them out if your re-using the old ones. You have 2 options, buy the whole kit from Renault(£170) or GSF (£150), all ready assembled with bearings and abs rings. Or buy cheap discs and bearings and pay a garage a fiver to press them in, then re-use...

Check the connector on the, errr I think your drivers side, LHD? Theres a connecter behind the wheel arch near the horn which can get corroded.

Clio pickup?

What other cars are in the top 12 out of interest?

I thought the ph2 box would be better for 0-60 times.

I had one years ago, was a cracking car and I still miss it. Did 88,000 miles in her and nothing went wrong.

I used to do this with matchbox cars.

renaultsport France sell some different ones but they are hard to go about ordering.
