Hi all, im struggling on how i can undo my battery clip so i can fit the amp connection, its the horrible sorta twisty style cap, the positive one found on the older clios, not sure if its on the new ones. How on earth can i get this to twist open so i can add my terminal for my amp thanks...

Hi all, ive decided im gonna make my own sub boxes, but havent got a clue on how to do the measurements. My subs are 10inch vibes If someone could kindly help, ive been told my subs are good in a 1.25cf box if someone could knock up a drawing or something showing dimensions, i want it to...

i had a problem with my backbox when i put it on my car, it was tapping up against the rear tow hook, now ive cable tied all the mounts to stop them from coming loose and pushed the backbox back so it sits just behind the hook. as for cats, ive just bought a new one for £95 from...

do admiral allow u to pay monthly?? and also where u able to get em to knock the price down by phoning em up. ive never had to take insurance out before, so ive got no idea on how to get em to lower it at all

how much work is it to either gut the PAS system out of the clio, or putting it on, as im seriously considering putting it on myself.... just not sure yet... if i do ill have an RT rack going as i assume id need a power steering rack instead Anyone ever done this mod before (sorry again...

Sorry for hi-jacking this thread.. before anyone says im thinking about converting my RT from standard steering, to power steering, but just how much work would be needed, and is it a garage job? I dont really fancy paying extortionate amounts as im not on the best of wages, but i do love...

Hi all, just wondering, is it at all possible to convert the old style steering to power steering? im not sure on this myself, prolly isnt possible, but i wouldnt mind finding out for sure. this is in a mk1 ph1 clio

well if its a whirring noise then it a bearing, but if its a tapping/banging noise its most likely the cv joint, im guessing 30 or 40 is mph sorry if thats a dunce answer lol

right got home, and tested that unknown sensor, resistance changed with temperature, and running it without the sensor plugged into the connector, made the car sound like it was really going to die!! got about 5k, but as its rather cold out here i would say thats about right, got it down to 2k...

ive just phoned 3 garages that can do code reading, and they say that its unlikely they can just tell me whats wrong with it, I myself dont have the cash to pay for it to be left in the garage to be serviced on whatever. Can anyone confirm that it will actually pin-point my problem? Is it...

From a previous thread about the radiator fan, just wondering how far up the mk1 clios temp guage the needle goes until the fan kicks in mine gets to about 3/4s or just over then kicks in, is that normal? used to really get hot quick, before i changed the heater matrix, but now it takes a fair...

how can they use the reg number to trace back my car? can dialogys do that? or do they use another system they use?

ahhh nice one mate, seems the haynes manual never documented that then. I might just book it in for a fault diagnostic test and see what that tells me, dont want the garage doign the work if i can do it myself, as for that anti roll bar bush kit, is there a part number i can goto reno with...

right as i cannot edit my last post, no button there to do so :confused: checking dialogys, the sensor marked as unknown looks like: 77 00 866 055 SENSOR 41.51 whereas the one i checked was (i think) 77 00 737 571 SENSOR W/T2PINWHI 20.10 althou looking from the picture, id say that the...

the haynes manual refers to that sensor, which is the sender guage sensor as the coolant temperature sensor?? help this is proper doing my head in, i just want a car that works!!! bloody renault Jay172 have u got a proper diagram to show which sensor is which, i cant find jack sh*t on...

hmmmm seems the haynes manual doesnt point that out, or atleast i cant find it, althou i must admit, the E type engine isnt very well documented in there, time to check the dialogys. thanks Jay172

heres a picture to show what i tested, it had the same socket on it as the thermostatic switch, looks identical really... anyways this shows u what i tested... hopefully its the right one otherwise im an idiot lol http://www.steven-petersen.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/car/sensor.jpg

i plan on doing so, its just weird that its getting a signal for sending the temperature readings to the display on the dash, yet taking a resistance reading from it, i get no reading, totally open circuit.

just had the car running, without the sensor plugged in, runs normally but as youd expect, the guage doesnt go up... but if i plug it back on and start it up again, the guage works normally.. this dont make sense because i tested across the sensor pins, and its open circuit. anyways heres a...
