Ok, so for about 6 months its all been interior mods but i took the plunge and went for it on the out side this time. :), not something you usually see on a 1.2 but hey ho.
Its the new 4D stuff and it has a really glossy look even then its still textured
Hi, it happens most when in 5th, if i brake at about 40 the gearstick wobbles until i change down to 4th then when a bit slower it will do the same in 4th, wobbles about half an inch either way (up and down).
Any ideas?
Thanks
I wanted to do this when my head gasket blew but after doing a bit of research its just not worth it, youd need the new engine, gearbox, new disks, pads (also the fact that the rears will be drums), depending on how the manifold fits you'll need one them, might need to cut in the loom to get...
So, the head gasket went and ever since replacing it i've had nothing but trouble. at first it was cutting out and juddering so after cleaning the gearbox sensor thats all pretty much sorted (that was two months ago). However now the standard exhaust seems to have a deeper tone, it sometimes...
I'd just fix the engine and put it back in the 172 as a track car and insure it when your 21, whats the point in putting in a rusty box? i do have a thing for the mk1's though. :)
Hi, this is mine, might give you a few ideas. Have a look at my thread ive done quite a few subtle mods to it : http://http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?652719
It's been a while since I did anything to this purely because the MOT and head gasket did me over, just a couple of things have changed due to me being able to declare stuff very cheaply. Plus my my insurance has gone from 1600 to 780 from 1 years no claims
So to start with I decided to get...
i love how he went to the effort to put ph2 lights on a ph1, so he must have been going for the more subttle mods at first and then just thought f**k it monster truck
I love it and them wheels really suit it, I'd quite like some. I reckon colour code the door handles and get an espace or Laguna splitter and it will finish it off nicely! I nearly bought an MTV edition but someone got to it an hour earlier, got a grande instead. I remember this when I first...
Hi, i'd try your spare key first (if its not turning over), but yes other than that, if it is turning over fine but not starting the crankshaft sensor is definitely worth a clean, ive just done mine with the same problems, also it only has these effects when the hot weather comes out so ive been...
most probably a fuse mate, i assume the rear light doesnt work either? have a look at the diagram, theres a light symbol and left and right arrows on it.
thanks guys, i managed to find it and ive given the sensor a good clean up and it seems to all be ok for the time being, its been fine since and starts everytime first time. Thanks and yer if it still keeps dying on me ill give it a bash.
Thanks
Hi, im rather at my whits end with my clio, it seems like its one thing after another ive had the head gasket go and various other bits and pieces.
Now when i bought it around a year ago (when it was warm), it had trouble starting every now and then, so now its warm again im getting the same...
personally i love every mod you've done, down to the white lettering on the tyres. If you like something stick with it, never do your car on what everyone else likes.
only mods id do is colour code side strips and debadge the back
when i bought my 1.2 clio, i didnt even know what detailing was. I popped into halfords (i see a theme going here haha), got a few bottles of auto glym and meguirs stuff, its all gone down hill from there really and countless hours and money. halfords 3 for 2 hasnt really helped much either and...
yer thats where i got my spare from, its a solid key with a embossed sticker on it, so unless its behind that im not sure, ill just get one on ebay like you said and take it there, thanks for the help.
yer i couldnt find my spare key so i put it on here, but ive just found it now lol, the problems have stopped but i only took it round the block so not sure, only annoying thing is that its just a key and not one with a button so not sure if its cleared everything up also im gonna look like an...
