I felt fine, just working on my car I felt a bit s**t. I have a couple of pics, but nothing amazing bar a smashed rear window!

Look like.... Nice dirty job too

They need to be exactly the same as removed. They are quite thick, motor factors maybe, or Renault.

Funnely enough, I did this exact job on my Clio DCi Thursday. Injector is easy to remove, crack both the 17mm nuts on the fuel pipe off, remove completely. Pull of leak off pipe, unplug injector (and glow plug as it'll be easier), remove Torx bolt, and then remove the U shaped clamp. You'll...

Thats power steering. Sensor is for pressure. Your issue could be play in the Track rods (inners or outers)

Today was a nice day, so hopefully tomorrow will be the same/better. See you all tomorrow.

Re: dmallett's indecisive clio thread! Monaco ph2 pg1+, Titanium ph1 pg31+, PB ph1 pg I had mm's and degrees confused. Would be nice if it was perfect though! Progress looks good though dan. Just need to convice Dr Jekyll that Ph2 rear lights is the way forward. See ya tomorrow!

Re: dmallett's indecisive clio thread! Monaco ph2 pg1+, Titanium ph1 pg31+, PB ph1 pg I know I've only just woken up, but bugger me thats hard to read. You could do with more front camber IMO and it could also do with a small shim to correct the rear toe, 3.4mm is quite a lot.

Lol, Luckily I'm in Norfolk with the EOE lot for a Clio meet ;)

And FYI Tom, you want sport springs, if not standard DCi springs. Sports weigh nearly the same as DCi's. Don't go buying non sport springs as they aren't the correct poundage half the time.

Can't see it being anything like that fitted there or looking like that. I doubt its fitted that well anyway, probably just poked down the A pillar and then along the bottom of the dash somehow.

Thats the problem! I suggest using cable ties to start with rather than use the metal clips supplied, means you can do it as many times as you like, and you'll do it 3 or 4 times. Take your time doing it and have fun lol

Keep thinking about getting myself a snow foam setup. Is it really worth it? Sorry to hijack your thread!

More than likely DAB aerial :) Trace it back!

I didn't use the fibreglass stuff either, its just the routing of it all.

Yep, Depending how low your car is, you might have some minor rubbing issues on the front arch liner/bumper bracket, but easily solved. Mine is quite low and has 30mm spacers and has rubbed everything away after a few months lol.

Cup wishbones are worth it for the extra caster (I did it!) and maybe camber bolts for a touch more camber, but good setup will improve it more than anything else. Sachs are good, but a decent coilover would be just as good, and probably cheaper! No real need to go for anything IMO. My own Clio...

Koni's, but mine is quite low, and quite harsh (also has polybushes, solid top mounts etc).

The DCi's have a bit of a harsh ride as standard tbh. Eibach Sportlines (like @Dr Jekyll has for sale) would be my call though. Good choice in car too, Nearly as good as mine.

Where abouts are you? Somebody local will most likely offer help, myself included if not too far!

Same as the fronts.

Shocks, springs and extra caster lower wishbones, which is just the same as 172 cup and 182 cup. Hubs are different, but I think thats just larger bearing (60mm or so springs to mind), Don't think shafts would be an issue. I'd like to be corrected though!

Theres also a fourth engine mount on the front of the gearbox that goes onto the subframe, but that does so little, I doubt I'd ever change that. Depends how far you want to go with it all I suppose, as you could end up changing all the balljoints, wishbones (or at least bushes) all over the...

Hour or two labour. Makes the job quite easy tbh.

Depends how much you're willing to spend.

push and hold the stalk end button, turn ign on, it'll light up everything etc, then switch ign off, back on and see if that helps.

Some more maintenance on the DCi tonight. Sounded terrible the last couple of days, bit like a steam train sometimes. Cause, an injector seal, just a thick copper washer at the bottom of the injector. Midway through changing... New vs old All fixed now :) Got some pics of my rear camber...

I'd stick with 195's. If yours is lowered at all, its a good idea as it gives more arch space. Blackcircles/camskill/JJC (demon tweeks sister)

Drive a 197 while you still have the ph1. For more then 5mins too.
