The connection in the cigarette lighter to chargers and stuff is awful at the mo, i tried to get as much of the rubbish and stuff that seems to have fallen in over the last 6 years out, but it's only slightly helped, so i'm now looking at a bigger job to sort it. So was wondering if anyone has...
I'd absolutly love something faster, but really don't have the finances, I had to shortlist my car choices to things that would do over 50mpg to be sure i could afford to run it whilst being a student
Hopefully one day i'll be able to :-) think i take after my dad... except 4x4 (coz were...
Hey thanks, I'll mention it to the garage next time i'm home, It's a bit annoying, but odd that it didn't feel like the 65 i drove, should have looked into it a bit more, but due to the difference in power between the two I just assumed it was right.
tbh I was also a bit too quick to buy, I'd...
I rang up renault to find the price of front shocks this week and whilst on the phone asked what the engine was recorded as as i've been becoming worried since reading on here the 1.5 80 engine should have a blue i on the door, but mine dosen't. It was sold to me as a 80, but renault, and the...
Thanks, no idea why I never thought of doing that. will need to hunt down a bigger bottle, maybe finish off the squash quickly. At home we've always had room to sort litres of the diluted stuff, now my garage has to fit in the boot, so concentrate had to be the way to go instead!
Anyone know the capacity for a standard bottle, was filling it up last month, and couldn't find the capacity anywhere to know how much concentrate i needed to fill up properly, looked in the haynes manual and all, but didn't seem to say. just ended up putting a litre in, and then put another...
This reminded me to look at adding my dad and bf to my policy, went and got a quote online from who i'm currently with, added my dad first, 46 year old, no accidents no points etc, and it went up in price quite significantly, anyone know why it should cost an extra for my dad, most people seem...
had insurance last month, had two new tyres for the front this month, will need a new one for the back shortly, and needed the tracking done (reason for the fronts going!) but they wouldn't do it until I get the FOS shock replaced (and although they only said one, i know i should really get both...
slightly off topic, and a bit stupid but does anyone know if the Billabong clio has an alarm? I've never parked it within hearing distance of my house, and never asked when i got it if it did
yep, although its usually because i just wanted to pull it forwards a notch and end up lowering the seat instead, still can't remember which sides which!
i have the back as straight up, like to be able to press my back against it and sit upright, about mid height (look through the windscreen at about the same height as i look at my monitor: 2/3 up, i spend too long at my computer!). Distance was back as far as i could with just getting the clutch...
Sorry i've started another thread to just to ask for a solution to my prob, am really grateful for all the help though...
Just wondering if anyone else has a Sony MEX-BT4700U head unit in a mk2ph2 clio? I got it a few months ago with the plan to buy the adapter from halfords for connecting it...
Thinking I may try and remember to turn them manually when ever i remember, and auto for when i forget, it almost seems that they think auto should just be used as a backup or something, instead of being used for normal use! although this may became ever more confusing, having to remember if i...
Hey, just saw this, what do i need to do to add to the list? post here or email that address?
My surface of mines been non existent and slightly sticky and odd looking since i bought the car, wasn't too bad until the weather warmed up, just got worse and worse, and stayed like it, this winter i...
Ah kwl, thanks. I've been considering turning them to manual, just seemed like a great feature to start with, after growing up in the middle of nowhere towns seem way to light to need headlights, so used to accidently forget to turn them on at least once or twice every week, great not having to...
oh no, brings back memories of my first car, dark aubergine ford fiesta, the paint was a two-tone type and when i finally got matching paint from the dealer and gave it to the garage to cover the wing repairs the colour they ended up was the other tone to the rest of the car at all times! the...
I love my 1.5 80, when i went to the garage i got it from they had the 65 and my 80, gave both a test drive 80 first, then 65 and the 65 was terrible in comparison, i think i'd been fine if i hadn't tried the 80 first, had no go in comparison and felt physically restricted, going up to 60mph and...
had the same prob last month, put the hazards on went to turn them off and the button wouldn't stay put, tried holding it in for a bit but needed to be able to change gear without the lights coming on so stopped, grabed the gaffa tape and taped it in, got home and pulled out the haynes manual to...
I saw this article the other day, http://hackaday.com/2010/02/13/ipod-shuffle-headphone-remote-reverse-engineered/ that'd sort it, but u'd need a basic electronics and programming background, ipods are more hassle than there worth in my opinion!
Until now I guessed you couldn't flash the Headlights, but then had to turn them on manually when it was tipping it down, and realised they did flash when not in auto, so is my car correct like this, or is there something wrong to be losing a feature like this (I know its not a big worry, but...
ah kk, Have 12 months warrenty on the car, but don't want to drive to Cornwall to find out if it needs replacing, would rather go down for the weekend knowing they need to replace it.
yea it's the 1.5 80hp clio, lovely car just trying to sort out all the little niggling problems, like this, scratches and the radio atm (that'll proberly be another post soon!).
I'm currently in Basingstoke Timmay.
Hi, have just joined, Bought my clio around a month ago, and its amazing, but bought it on 72 and a half thousand miles and almost 6 years old, and know the timing belt needs to be changed at 72 or 5 years old, so just looking for some advice on if i can tell easily if it's been replaced...
