Why have they even said the cambelt needs changing? OP will come back, say the car is fine etc, they did a brilliant job and we were all wrong, then for whatever reason in a couple of months, it'll have the timing rectified and he'll admit defeat. Standard forum popcorn time.

Re: dmallett's titanium ph1 If it still cranks fast, won't be battery related.

Re: dmallett's titanium ph1 Crank Sensor I'd say. Pretty common for them to fail like that.

Re: dmallett's titanium ph1 What does it do exactly when not starting? I'd suspect its to do with your battery relocation, or the battery rather than the starter if it works fine after its been running for a little while.

Assume you're a local then?!

Not the first time I've seen it outside Taylors, Work there or servicing? Looks clean.

And then You'll be paying out more hundreds to get a specialist to get the timing correct.

This, Sounds exactly the same as what I had on mine after lowering it further and adding some camber. I'm looking to get a my spare driveshaft shortend to stop this happening.

If it hasn't got fittings for a sensor already, you can get oil cooler ones that have the extra fittings for sensors too.

Can dull some of it, sound deadening in the doors, rear 1/4 panel, under carpet and behind dash, but all in all, it'll cost loads and add lots of weight to an already slow car. May be worth while doing the doors and 1/4 panels though, I think I spent about £20 on doing those and its better.

Spare wheel, not in the spare wheel well, Its not a 182 ffs!

There might be a better place on a clio that I don't know, but a sandwich plate like this, with the right thread if possible (find out what thread your sensor is, or you can get loads of adaptors) You may find you can tee it into the oil feed for your turbo though.

Spotted tonight, stood out a mile away, Brilliant way of improving the high street.

I'll happily have a look, PM me.

That's why it's a good idea to remove the aux belt and fire it up for a couple of mins to prove its not something else.

Its bloody hard, but I ended up doing it with a G clamp and another pair of hands to push down the bolt.

I wouldn't say its hard, but then I don't view anything has hard, Its all bolts at the end of the day. You have to use sport shocks, Depending on what the hubs are from (cup vs non cup really). Its hassle sourcing it all, Luckily I got the whole lot from one guy, then it was just getting new...

Its not just that, but yeah, cars now been keyed both sides, Plus other paint inperfections etc, It now needs a full respray. So thats the plan for next year, most likely.

No dephaser on a non sport. Parts comes to about £150 if changing the water pump and aux belt at the same time (always a good idea), Plus a couple of hours labour fitting, Three hours max.

Haven't updated in ages, few things have happened.... Roughly in order... Firstly, Fitted undertay, Non-sports never have them, which I always thought was s**t. Had a slight issue with charging, so new alternator, and new terminal (heavily corroded), Along with new aux belt kit...

Yep, if you'd have heard it, you would have known, or thought its fucked! Cheers although it looks bloody dirty rather than tasty atm.

Was indeed me :)

Yep, non sport airbag is exactly the same. Can also swap CC if required too, or fit it later. I'll remember to bring the tools and swap it for ya :)

Re: dmallett's titanium ph1 Glad to hear its passed!

Meekings, I'll happily meet in haver before.

4th Clio on my drive ATM, but by the time he wants to sell, Second or third I think. Plus the others I look after!

Hey, I didn't say I deffo wanted it lol. Would be kinda cool on my drive

Never posted mine in here...

PM Me how much your looking for the car, Might know people interested (or myself!)

Its a gash tool, but it works, as long as you're not a idiot with it, works fine for the few I do.
