Just a quick question. Does anybody on here has fitted an universal cone-filter? I'm thinking about a self made induction kit, but is it possible to use the filters fitted to other way around? Normal fitting is with the wide-side toward the windscreen. (air coming from the caf, going from...

Well there can be two reasons for placing ribs and making the top surface this thin. - saving material (lower production cost) using ribs might be that effective that using no ribs and making the material thicker at that spot uses more material. - sound reduction (the ribs could reflect the...

LOL! Nice and fast replies! I know the basics of prototyping too. In the Netherlands there are a few companies that are specialized in 3d-printing and/or prototyping. I don’t know the exact quality and materials that can be made. Anyhow, solidworks is ok for me. I’m using Auto-cad at the...

Well when the mold of rubber/latex/polyester is good enough I can make more of these airbox covers. My first aim is to make a replica airbox cover that is transparent. Adjusting some ribs of the original might just be necessary to make it an easy cast. I’m not looking to re-design the part...

@ Neil G First off I want to try and make only one. So I am not into marketing these airbox-covers (yet). (I might if the result is good enough and there is enough interest) @ Everybody :) My idea was to use the original part to make a mould (die-cast). Using rubber/latex or...

No! Not glass off course, but transparent (clear) polyester! It just came to me a few months ago. I received my ITG panel filter and I thought it looked quite cool. In Holland tuning/cleaning the engine-bay is not as hot as in the UK. So I thought lets just share this with you guys. My...

Look aint working for me too. Located in Holland so prob same server :S

Thanks all! DutchRS I live near The Hague. You?

Thanks! Yes the sat-nav is rarely seen in clio's even in Holland. Not long ago I had to replace the rubber seal from the antenna, and even the guy a Renault wanted to see for sure. Antenna seems to be different with sat-nav.

Hi all! After being around the ClioSport forum for a while, I just thought it's time to introduce myself. I'm Felix, live in The Netherlands and drive a Clio MK2 Ph2 172 FF built in 2002. Bought it in june 2005 and enjoyed it since. In almost 2 years encountered a few problems, but like many...

Great car man! What's the bra for? Just to prevent damage to the hood from road trash?

I had two rattles in my 172. one between 2500-3000 rpm.... mechanic said it had something to do, with the handbrake mechnisme rattling against a heatshield. other one was at 4000rpm... def other sound. The cat was rattling like a b*tch. The mechanic can check with a stethoscoop or just a...

Hi all! First of to all a very happy 2007 and all the best. The rubber on my antenna is completely going. Insinerated by sunlight or something. I went to the renault garage today and they said they have to replace the whole antenna/arial mounting. My clio rs has Nav/Sat so it's going to cost...

I had my cat replaced for the 4k rattle. As from what they told me. There are 2 or 3 rings aroud the material in the cat, that are welded or something. These rings can get loose, and start rattling. Happens quite often. I believe as long as you are still in warranty you should get it...

Thanks for your reply Edde. The car is in the garage now, squaky belt and an oil-change. Asked the mechanic to check this too. I hope he gets things sorted today. By the way anyone on here has experience with a chunky steeringwheel when cold. When driving away from a parkingspace I hear a...

I got a question for you guys. I noticed something strange when revving my car. (ph2 172 I believe you call it full fat - all options incl. nav :evil: ) When revving at around 2750rpm, without being in gear, the engine is very rough and the car is shaking like i'm driving off-road or...

I had a simular problem last week. When I wanted to spray my window, there was barely any fluid coming out. Anyway I took a look at the engine-bay to check if anything was wrong, but saw that the pipeline going to the washer-jets, was "nodded" (bend to much so it blocked the inner diameter) So...
