Thanks ;)

And they'll tell you to piss off. It says in the service book... "Contact your Renault dealer if it is necessary to replace the timing belt, notibaly in the following conditions... -Door to door -Urban driving -Repeated short journeys -Dusty environment ...and depending on your driving style...

Sealed unit you can't take the glass off as Christopher said. Best bets either leave them on a radiator all night, and go round sealing it with clear silicone anywhere water can get in, or leave them on all night, and do the same in the morning.

Decent tyres on the front, cheapies on the back?

I've just replaced the DS2500s in mine after 2.5k. That includes one ring trip thought and it gets abused a bit. I've seen a Rover 75 on original front and rear brake pads at 110k though, even then the discs gave up before the pads, even if they where about 90% worn.

No! Take the bottom hose off, let it all run out then blow down the bottle, if your really kean stick a hosepipe in and keep it running threw the system (with the bottom hose off still) till clear water runs out. Best way to fill its vac fill it if you've got the kit. No messing about with...

At the back on the left hand side theres 2 bolt holes out of line.

Lol. With a remap your laughing, speak to Pmurray on here, revs easier, ever gears got more, goes to 5k easy, 100+ in 4th and to top it off better MPG. We're not saying DCIs are rocketships but the remap makes all the difference. Speak to edde hes driven his own and mine round the ring (80...

This is on about the rear wiper Gabriel.

Thats a big deciding factor now aswell, all the Williams Clio boys think 120k is low mileage. Hard to find one that is totally standard, looked after with no rust. Every time I see a Williams go round a track and seeing how well they stick to the road like s**t to a blanket I want one. They...

Mine was exactly the same on a 52 plate a couple of weeks ago. Threw up every light and its dog up on the dash. Have you got a multimeter Mark? Get the battery tested. AA/RAC do that homestart thing if your with them. Those relays will click when you turn the ignition on/start the car etc.

Mark turn your headlights on and then try and start it. If they dim your batterys knackered mate, that co-incides with all the stuff you mention aswell. When batterys go they'll flash lights left right and centre. Whats your clock and radio doing?

Wouldn't bother getting that set as your paying unnecessarly (sp) for silly Imperial sockets that you don't need/will never use. Word. I got a 1/4" drive set from there just for the sockets/extensions and just bought a Snap-On 1/4" ratchet off eBay for £15. Used it every day for the last 2 years.

No probs, thats the usual fix with them they all do it, in a stupid place so gathers dirt/moisture.

What was it Garf?

Re: For f**k Sake! J0sh how olds the car obviously 3 years atleast but is it 4 years old yet? Renault do an any mileage 4 year warranty on Clio rear drums/shoes due to the amount of problems they've had with them, worth checking see if you can get a free set of drums/shoes!!

There was loads of trailers when I went a few months ago in the carpark over the road in the field parking bit. I remember when booking the ferry online aswell it asked how long the total length of the vehicle was and a tick box for trailer etc.

That makes the Megane win to be honest, complete animal upto 130/140mph and when it gets there its just cruising. Different story in the Clio sadly. Also as said the Meganes a bit easier to tune aswell for less, i.e remap, intercooler etc. As for quality and build theres nothing in it no...

New bulb and new housing and a clean block plug? See if your getting a feed to the housing with a test light or a multimeter. Its run off the n/s/r sidelight.

Garf its ran off the rear side lights mate, the unit fills with water due to where its sat (in a hole) take out the whole piece, clean it up and the blockplug behind the bumper aswell, replace the bulb, the connections will be all green needs a good clean and a WD40.

Speak to Martin_89 on here he changed his 1.2 16v engine and put a thread up with photos a write up sort of thing. Easy job if your doing a straight swap. Whereabouts in Leicester are you?

Black 05 Plate 182 "**05 CUP" Reg over at Cawston going round the roundabout about 5 times lol Had CUP in the numberplate

More or less yeah, if you've bought the whole arm its false economy only changing the BJ mate, not that much harder to be honest just got the ARB on each arm to add on, and 2 bolts.

Do you rag it regularly? If not more than likely just condensation in the exhaust due to the change in weather.

Dead easy Ollie, on a ramp, not rushing say 15 minutes to change the balljoint on its own, add another 10 minutes if your changing the whole arm. You'll need sockets and spanners, 16mm, 18mm, hammer, small punch. In a nutshell if your just changing the Ball Joint. Crack off both red bolts...

Wheres this Shipston on Sour place??? It was done 5 minutes from me :rasp: Just messing. Still not convinced about that 'Unmarked T5 in white with a man wearing a florescent jacket can't radio in a chopper comms are buggered can't get backup units fit some flasher relays with some blue lamps...

Valvers are a money pit with service history let alone without it. Probably more to the MOT than the speedo not working.

Yeah, its a bit obvious. A tatty old white, Volvo cop car, hmmm, how original! Theres never any police in that layby anyway as you can't take that roundabout at high speed from each side of the A45, coming off the M45 you'd see them sitting there a mile away aswell. Theres no white old bill...

Yeah just use the link
