    Cat D stolen and recovered

    My Clio 1.2 was written off as Cat D Stolen and Recovered. It had minor front right wing damage and a cracked front bumper. That was it. Looked like someone had rolled it into a wall at 5mph.

    First courtesy car... holy hell!

    Especially with posts from the lad above you to go by. For a courtesy car it should just be relatively new, in good condition and be able to get you to where you want to go. Courtesy = Polite, not, here have whatever you want.

    How to turn off ESP??

    The ESP and service lights come on when the airbag connector under the seat is dud.... it can mean a lot of different things ranging from 24p for a resistor to £xxx . Don't panic until you've had a CLIP diagnostics. Edit: Just saw other thread.

    All do it at 1815 or something for maximum effect.

    Reconnected cut wires under seats - airbag light still on?

    You can cut the wires and solder a resistor between the two to stop it giving warnings all the time if you have aftermarket seats or the sensors playing up. The 3.9ohm one from here. Seal it in electrical tape afterwards obviously. Then clear the codes and it should leave you alone!

    Drivers side seat won't tilt forwards.

    Haha, look what I did today: And it worked! BUT, the handle still felt looser than the other side so I had another look. The White plastic sheath above the spring had come out if the little plastic slot that holds it in place. Took the cable tie off and it worked perfectly, with the same...

    Drivers side seat won't tilt forwards.

    I found these two little tidbits: "I have cracked it!! The plastic sheath around the cable had come away from it's holder half way up the seat. Slotted it back in and hey presto!! Thanks for your help" "Unclipped and lifted the the cover up enough (about 4" from the bottom of the seat cover)...

    Drivers side seat won't tilt forwards.

    The car has had this problem since I bought it and I've never got round to trying to fix it as, well, the passenger side works fine. But I probably should.... Basically, you pull the handle on the back of the seat to pull the seat forwards (to get into the back seats) and nothing happens...

    Car broken into and no damage?

    My car randomly unlocks itself. Sometimes I come back to it, blip to unlock, it clunks, try the door and its locked. Wondered for ages about it, and then caught it one day whilst I was in the garage. It'd been parked up for an hour or so and the bugger opened itself. Keys were in my coat...

    Stiff gear change, and gearstick movement when in gear

    whining at speed.

    FAO Milltek Owners

    My stock exhaust does it. I imagine under power that it pushes air out both and causes no restriction issues. Main worry for me is people behind think I've got some stick on halfords bits!
