The larger fan makes more noise, sounds like a plane taking off!

So powellys cloned my clio! You dont turn up to a few meets and someone takes ya place with a clone.

Oh my god who has cloned my clio? Well sorta, as close to as ive seen! Its the first pic on the first link

We get 10% discount at Renault Romford.

The factory fitted oil cooler isnt like the one you mean Chavy. I have a low temp stat and low temp fan switch whith a over ride switch so i can turn the fan on and off as i please. Fitted a oil cooler kit too, it does keep the oil temp down a fair bit. My fan stopped workin so i replaced...

I put a larger fan on mine over a year ago. works a treat.

Its that time of year again, we all dread it. But when the letter comes through the door and the figure on it is sub £500 it make it alot easier. Insurance isnt that bad after all.:D

Matter of opinion i guess

Ha ha the discs make the car!!! (worse than it already is) I never have understood moding 5 doors to that extent. You either want a practical car, or one that is alot of hassel.

Alright Ivan, What happened to the 172? Think i saw you the other day, at upminster trainstation. Not too sure tho thats why i didnt say hi. Would it have been you?

The 16v bumper aint too wide. But i think the mounts are slightly different. Can be fitted easily tho. The rear bumper wont go on tho.

It is.

dont seem too bad to me

The newer shape clio is everywear! The 16v and williams were special cos there was never that many of them. It devalues the car to a cirtain extent. Saying that 172s are not too commen, still see alot more that 16vs and williams put together tho.

James, I dont think the originals have the silver rim. The refurbed wheels get the silver ring i belive. Look better with it too.

Glad your pleased with it. How can you have a dent on a plastic wing?

Mod the t/s valve make it feed the alternate path a bit quicker.

It locks the glove box. ;)

Extream in harlow do them. I got mine there a quality job they done too, well pleased with it.

Whats the out put on your alternator? And if its more than 90 where did you get it from?

Ive changed mine twice. It is hard to do. You can leave the bonnet on, you need the drivers side head light out and everything in the space round it. Done it bout a year ago so cant really remember. Good luck if you try it yourself.

There ok, as good as anywhere else i guess. Check your wheel nuts when there done, they tend to forget to tighten them!

Its easy to take the whole mirror off tho, only 3 bolts. There inside the car.

You need a new pipe mate. Common fault on early valvers. b*****d to change!

Its only 2 wires on the back of the glass, maybe one has come off?

Mine does that too sometimes, let me know if you get to the bottom of the prob. Tony

It run hot when i had the old thermostat in there, thats why i replaced it. Surly the car has to have a thermostat? If it dosent need one then why bother putting one in to begin with?

We flushed the system during the summer tho didnt we mate. Dont think a new rad is that cheap tho. You off on hoiliday? Where you going?

Thought has crossed my mind, not really sure how to check for that tho, apart from the milky water.

the fan is fine, its a bigger fan than the standard one too! The only place i am losing water is out the resivour tank as it boils over!! I really dont know what is causing it. Yeah if the car is going it wont over heat, but soon as you stop the temp shoots up.
