^this man speaks sense!!!!

Hiya my aux belt has now squeeking/ slipping. Its a new belt and probably needs some minor adjustment, how do i go about this myself? Had a look at what i believe is the tensioner, its a black circular block with a bolt on one end and a torx bit on the other side between the alternator and...

Thanks, its on 60mm apex springs pal. They don't do much for ride comfort tho :)

.... so I decided to take some quick midnight ish pics of my lil' shed! :rasp: Excuse the quality of the pictures I havent got to grips with my new fangled camera just yet! :o Please be kind x :D C&C welcome ;)

that ibiza splitter doesn't look bad at all on a ph1 actually, something different! Those 172 oz's have made car look much better, seems to be going in the right direction!! :)

uks 5 door 2.0 type s (the one you could only get in a 5 door with leathers and shizz) the USDM si uses a variant of the k20 engine bout 170hp i think..

hiya sometimes when i shift into 2nd from first and sometimes 3rd to 2nd theres some resistance on the gearstick going into the gear but it will eventually engage maybe with a really really quiet crunch . started few months back i replaced a worn driveshaft and put new oil (carlube 75-90w)...

had the same on my 1.2- was down to dogbone gearbox mount working its way loose. Your grinding sound on full lock could be down to a worn cv joint

hiya just wondering if the headlight adjusters that change the height (black box) on the front headlights are different for the o/s and n/s as i think someone has put two of the same on mine and am having problems lining them up....:dapprove: thanks lee

I like that!!:cool:

Thanks for saving me time there! It probably would have taken me some time to realise whole thing was chuffin spinning around with the nut on the top!! Cheers for advice! :cool:

Hi!! Im seriously thinking of buying some cheaper rokkor coilovers for my ph1 1.2 8v but to use them i need the other hubs. But to change them over i really dont know how unattach the steering rods which are from the rack to the hub via a rubber mount? Do i need a special tool to undo them to...

hiya got a really bad misfire on my clio. The whole engine and exhaust shakes like mad. Theres no blue smoke coming from the exhaust though. The spark plugs are dripping with oil / coated with oil. I havent done a compression test yet but I changed the coil pack over using a one used on a...

I do like that! :cool:

Hiya just wondering if its legal to tint my headlamps yellow? Cheers

Cheers :cool:

Anyone know the size of the driveshaft nut on a clio 1.2? It may be the same size on a sport. Its definitely around 30mm or bigger, just needing to buy a socket soon. Cheers Lee

I REALLY hate you ;)

Done it.... so easy it was ridiculous :o

Hi just having a problem removing the adjustment servo on my headlight. Im twisting and it seems somethings going to snap if im not too careful! Anyone know how to take them out properly before I end up breaking something??:rolleyes: Cheers :)

Buying coilies. I """think""" its 52mm bolt spacing on the front shock where it attaches to the hub. But if anyone can clarify it for me that would be great before i go buying the wrong thing! Cars a 1999 MK2 phase 1 clio 1.2 grande. Many thanks, much appreciated!:cool:

**Nah its not too bad really. Its just a small trickle out of it at the moment, nothing major but it needs the coolant topping up fairly regularly (talking a litre in the space of 2 or three months) and kept a check on. Its something Ive got used to living with to be honest but Id just like to...

It may be missing as it broke! and filled in! theres apparently two on a D7F old 8 valver one on the rad hose which ive used before (thumb screw) haynes manual says theres one on the heater hose aswell. Ill get to the scappy this weekend and do some investigating! Thanks for the help, reckon...

its that big bulgy thingy (sorry) havent got a clue what it is or to stop coolant leaking out of it. Its coming out of the centre of the dip.:dapprove: It seems to be made out of plastic but the head on it is flat and is very hard to get to. Its very hard to get a good look at it too but it...

Pants! it must definitely must not be the bleed screw then that im looking for. will post a pic when i get back home. Which may explain it better than words. In words for now tho its a big buldge in a coolant hose with a little hole/ indentation in (it runs underneath round the rocker cover...

sorry for a simple question:o coolant is leaking out of the coolant bleed screw on the heater pipe. Any ideas what size tool is need to tighten it. It doesn't seem very obvious to me looks like some sort of socket is needed? thanks

Hi CS Got a minor problem with my shed. I fitted a short ram induction kit then swapped it back to the airbox for the winter. Since using the induction kit on the car, over time I noticed when i started the car up my idle went to around 950-1000 rpm from being at 750. When switching back to the...

Cheers for replies, ive only had a glance at the offside front last week to see whether any waters leaking on the block/ generally around that area whilst its running from what i could see it appeared to be ok so it might not be the water pump. Been using the car as normal and checked this...

Hi all Just checked my clio over yesterday. Noticed big drop in coolant (really low) since the last month I carried out a service on it and added roughly a litre to bring it up to where it was previously. Previously levels been bang on through summer with no issues and been driven daily...
