Mudflaps need to come off and you need to colour code the bumpers. Not bad so far though.

I use this: Click Me Theres loads of products though, just stick to the gell stuff.

Gray it's probably just the insurer that your with atm, if you call Flux again and explain that you aren't bothered about switching insurers I'm sure thats what it is. By doing that it's no different to applying to a different company yourself though as you'll have to pay a deposit and all that.

Replace both ignition relays with NEW Renault only items under the bonnet right hand side under plastic cover. Theres two black ones next to each other in a cup.

Not unless you know the difference between one properly timed and one not. The inlet cam on mine was out by 15 degrees and I had no idea until it was RR'd. Too many monkeys in this world who THINK they know everything.

How often does it do it?

A friend of mine hit a kerb in his old Clio with his rear wheel, he didn't hit it that hard but it was clearly visible that it was bent afterwards. My point is I doubt 3 degress of toe in means it's bent. Also when I had full four wheel alignment on mine the guy told me the n/s rear still had...

The stuff I use lasts weeks, I'm not talking about that original black rubbish. If you want to paint it by all means go ahead. It will get stonechipped though, it's easier to re-apply a spray than to paint it again.

My bad, should have explained better, Recaros minimum if upgrading, low buckets even better. ;)

No....not yet. Just saying I will be doing despite a previous comment recommending not to. I've only powerflex'd the dogbone mount atm.

That's fine if your getting the rears done too.

Have you got them on the right way round? I don't know if that's even possible to get it wrong but I've no problems with mine.

Corrected. ;)

Just get some bumper clean and shine stuff on it, works perfectly.

That's the dumbest thing I've ever read tbh.

Might I also add that the OEM dogbone bush is weak as s**t. Mine went after just 30 minutes of tracktime. Powerflex one has so far lasted just fine throughout a full trackday + the usual abuse it gets day to day.

Keywords here boys. ;) Not that I condone any of this business.

DS2500s / Brembo MAX / Braided lines / 5.1 fluid / OEM rear discs and pads. Done Don't worry about the filing, just explain to them before they do it, if they ooh and arr then just take it somewhere else, there will be somewhere local that's used to fitting aftermarket parts. They won't fit at...

umm sticking caliper? More than likely one of the rears. I'd get the car a full service, should have done that already seeing as you've just bought it.

This is weird, mine have gone to below half after one trackday and fairly sensible driving, had them less than 1.5k miles. I've the grooved discs though. I was told they eat pads but damn!

Bosch wipers ONLY. Cheaper brands don't last as long and they flap at speed.

The powerflex'd dogbone still increases vibration throughout the car but it reduces, not stops, the vibration from the manifold under harsh acceleration, from my experience. I'm going all singing all dancing uprated mounts all throughout. :)

If the rev counter sits tight at just over 1k on cold and iirc just under 1k when warm I wouldn't worry about it. If it's up and down like a yoyo and it's like this consistently then you have an issue.

Anyone can change the belt properly as long as they have the Renault timing tools, if you have to argue about this fact then just walk away. I'd recommend a specialist if you don't have a trusty mechanic locally.

They are slightly better in that they have a better covering, a stitched logo and lumbar support. However, if you are upgrading seats do it properly and get some Recaros. Not worth it otherwise. I flogged my cup seats on ebay for £50.

Was about to say something similar tbh. It's a limit of course of which if you turbo'd / supercharged it and didn't tell them they would easily notice but if you happen to trickle over it with just simple mods I wouldn't be on the phone straight away to throw more money away.

It's not too low, when the gearbox starts leaking oil is when it's too low. Been there, done that. lol

Pointless, easier to ITB a F4R as been said already, can get 7,500rpm lol, thats plenty!

I just bought some new standard discs and Ferodo pads for my old 1.4 16v, they are absolutely brilliant once you get some heat into them. Brakes on the mk2 Clio are good as standard anyway so why bother messing really? Just not needed on a non sport.

44k miles and offside knocking like feck! Replaced them with K-tec solid top mounts, 10x better than OE Renault rubbish mounts.
