    View out of rear window (Clio IV)

    I remember the first time I drove one I noticed how poor the rear visability was, 2 weeks in and I had forgot all about it and I think I done 30k over 3 years in them with no issues

    OEM Front speaker differences

    sorry its years since ive played with aftermarket stuff, I used to use Pioneer as I had a large Pioneer car audio dealer near me and the stuff was very good but it was years ago and ive never tried any other brands so would be wrong for me to say just buy Pioneer lol

    Insurance for multiple cars

    find an insurance company that mirrors your ncb say you have 10yrs, then at the end of the policy you get proof of no claims for 11yrs, now you have ncb for separate cars/policies that you can use with other companies, that's what I done and now have 3x cars on 3 policies with 15yrs ncb on each.

    OEM Front speaker differences

    im not a fan of aftermarket unless you are replacing the head unit or amping them over the years they were produced there seems to be about 10x different versions of speakers, small magnets, large magnets and a few different variances inbetween, the ones I posted above seem to be the best of...

    Clio rs edc - LSD options?

    I found them night and day both dry and wet, more grip, keener to turn in, rear end was more playful due to the stronger front end bite on turn in, less road noise, was tempted to remove the rear SS and replace them with PS4 too

    Clio 1.2 campus sport won't start. Immobilizer?

    vibrating from the needles when you put the key in is either flat/low battery voltage or a poor earth, charge battery and put a jump lead from the negative battery terminal to a good solid piece of metal on the bodyshell (I usually use one of the brackets up on the pass side suspension turret) -...

    Martin's Clio DCi Van

    Done a bit more work today, had the odd bolt that had sheared etc during fitting so went to the scrappys for replacements and replaced everything with the proper bolt, also found I had missed the rear engine loom earth at the top of the gearbox so connected that and that's solved my immobiliser...

    Mk2 DCi, are they only 65?

    I found the MK4 wasn't as good either, we had a pair of dci90s the remapped one done 60mpg without much trying and the standard one slightly worse, I think the long gearing had you loading it up more than you should for economy! The 6 speed makes all the difference My DCi 110 kangoo is...

    Mk2 DCi, are they only 65?

    I found my mk3 dci 106 was about 10mpg off the mk2 dci 100 (that's worked out at the pump, not the trip) they do drive much nicer though. for mk2s id say 80 is the best of the bunch, getting hard to find though
