Hi
I drove to asda today to get some cash. After getting what I needed I tried to start the car and found that it would nearly fire up but not enough to get it going (apart from it turning over) I have found if you hold the key for around 20/30 secs it will start no bother! I tried this...
Some of you may remember a couple of weeks ago that I was having trouble with reverse gear after changing engines. I got my car back from the garage today and the report was bad! They told me that something has either moved in the gearbox or a selector spring has gone meaning the linkage goes...
Ever since I got a new engine put in my car I have not had reverse. I know reverse is there cos I used my old g/b. We have played with the linkage for ages and found that if you place a jack on the end of the linkage under the g/box and support it you can select reverse! as soon as the jack...
Hi
I have just got my engine transplant done in my clio 16v!
Drove it on a 10 mile thrash and then slowed down for a round about. As soon as the clutch went in the revs just dropped to 0 and of course made it stall. I then tried to start it with no luck! few mins later I got it going...
Hi
Recently I got a new engine fitted to my car. In the process of the old engine coming out we split the power steering pipe on the rack. We replaced the bent pipe with a new pipe and then put the engine back in to find that the pipe leaked badly from the top of the union. We have cut the...

Recently I have had a bad noise coming from my engine and with the other engine probs ontop I have decided it would be easier and cheaper to fit another engine.
I have low milage engine waiting to go into the car but I would like to know what you personally would replace before fitting it...
I have had a noise in my engine for a while now and over the last few days its got a bit louder.
It sounds like it is coming from around the cam cover area (clio 16v)
Sound seems to go away at around 2000 rpm.
Heres the sound clip: http://clio16valver.250free.com/ (needs real player)...
Got my road angel 2 the other day and registered (takes one day)
When I click to get updates it says error locating details of device... contact blackspot.
Can anyone help please?
Ok found this today:
That cant be right? How do I go about fixing it?
Im also sure I have never seen this on a clio 16v before either:
Any advice + parts I need to buy?
Thanks

Went into the country today to try and get some decent pics of my car. Anyway found a nice place which was down a really long crappy track with loads of big stones etc.
Got to the end of the track and there was a nice grass area with good spots to take photos. My m8 then went across the field...
Hi
I am a bit worried about the pressure on my valver.... When hot if you boot it it seems to just about go past 3 bar.... Is this normal?
Also when I stop the pressure goes to nearly 0.
Hi
When I start the car at any time the car idles like it should.... I can drive it normally (no high revs) and the revs are still fine when I stop. When I seem to give it a bit and then pull over the revs are way higher and seem to go up and down.. I tried tonight re earthing my speedo cable...
