    Is my gearbox starting to go?

    I don't force it by any mean's i'd like to get that straight! That's the absolute last thing I'd do. I do let it do it's own thing until it's warmed up. Like I said when it's warm there's absolutely no problems with it. What would you guys recommend gear box oil wise?

    Is my gearbox starting to go?

    In the morning upon starting the car (0.c) It's a little rough, but not major. If I'm in 2nd and coming down to 1st I cannot select it until the car is pretty much stationary. When the car is up to running temp things do get a little easier and about 30mins into the journey which is when the...

    epicly bad fuel consumption

    Before setting off to work today I looked at the fuel to station gauge which read 170 miles.. upon arriving home tonight the fuel gauge read 93 miles.. Wtf both ways is only 46 miles, where has the 31 miles gone? I wasn't flooring it either, going the speed limit, 3rd gear to 5th.. 60mph...

    Clio's just boiled/dumped itself :(

    I didn't take anything to heart mate, I just though i'd let them get on with it. I did sound like a lot of people were moaning and I was the one laughing as at the end of the day it's my car and could of been my mistake. Upon talking to the guys at Kwikfit they were actually genuine guys and I...

    Aux belt squeaking

    Make sure you check the bearings on the waterpump, mine went and had to replace the Aux belt as the bearings spat it off, tensioner and the pump itself. IT'S NOT A CHEAP FIX

    Clio's just boiled/dumped itself :(

    Thanks mate, I was on the phone to the guy earlier and he said everything was fine, no knocking no nasty sounds, he said its a great little car, although a bit of a ball ache to work on due to the size if the engine in the bay, of which I can understand. Apparently they were picking bits of...

    Clio's just boiled/dumped itself :(

    Not throwing anything at anyone pal, but from why I've heard from the last few pages was half sarcasm and genuine honesty. You just can't tell on these forums. I'd like to know how you can tell what my feelings are by text..

    Clio's just boiled/dumped itself :(

    Kwikfit didn't charge anything, and no not really mate, I'm quite relaxed about it all tbf, just curious of why you said what you said, but all should be fine. I'm sure if I had the tools and time I could fit a water pump and aux belt but I have neither so..

    Clio's just boiled/dumped itself :(

    Apparently by renault themselves they said it doesn't need doing. Kwikfit said they wont do it. What needs changing is the aux belt, as it's no longer there because the fucked bearing whipped it off and and the internals of the pump and pump bearing. The casing is all that's salvageable. It...
