It's only on later cars it does it around 2005. Get one from an older car and it will be fine. You don't have the air circulation button that all the early ones have but if you get one that does it will still work fine
To be honest the pedal and TB are expensive. I would chance my luck with a 2nd hand one first as it's not a massively common fault so you would be unlucky to end up with another faulty one.
HOWEVER that white plug under the fuse box sends so many people down the throttle body and pedal route...
That lower subframe mount on mine looked proper past it, I fitted all new mounts to the other 3 and ordered a brand new replacement for that mount and it made no difference so I wouldn't worry about it
Would need to plug it in and look at live data.
Off the top of my head id be looking at:
White plug under the fuse box for corrosion.
Relays in the fuse box for corrosion
Check injectors
Replacement throttle body
Replacement accelerator pedal
Has it had a timing belt? MK3 uses the VVT engine, it's a similar setup to the 2.0 16v, timing could be out.
They are a reasonably pokey engine so it should feel fine to drive
Got the same problem, popped it on a diagnostic machine to look at live data and 3x abs sensors were showing one reading, the rear o/s was showing a stupid number. Changed that sensor, problem solved.
I bet they love you kicking up fuss for a genuine windscreen then refusing it 😂
The windscreen supplied is correct, it may not be the same manufacturer as the original when the car was made but it will be the correct part manufactured by whoever was doing Renaults glass at the time it was...
The rear O2 sensor keeps being mentioned, don't worry about it, it's not controlling anything. The cat will be fucked after years of this too. But if it's pulling fine up the revs it won't be doing any harm or causing the issue, it's just not doing its job and killing the butterfly's!
I've come...
because of the price of a 1.6 16v Clio, you would need to have a VERY VERY big sentimental connection to the car to make it a viable conversion. I done one years ago but at the time I had managed to pick up a high miles 1.2 Clio for £1500 when all the 1.6 16v Clio's about were over £5k.
My most...
tailgate on ebay currently that looks the same colour

insure it fully comp and claim the windscreen thru your windscreen cover, cost you a £50 excess
get the wheels refurbished at a local wheel refurbishing place - £40-£50 a wheel usually.
rear boot is the same as any mk3 clio so should be easy to find one in the scrappy, get one in the same colour...
yes. ideally you want the wings too which you will also need the side skirts. but some people do fit the bumpers with the standard wings and just modify it to fit but ive never done it so not sure what they do
it would have to have sat for 2years before being registered, it was registered on 16 may 2002 according to its mot history.
I'm shocked someone has bided £2k on that already tbh after a quick look it looks like:
Its had a full respray which can be seen in the pics is atrocious, and also...
My concern was how hot they run as standard. In the summer after a blast over the dukes pass I couldn't touch my bonnet, add a big intercooler blocking flow to the radiator and a remapped car running hotter, that was a concern for me
