    alarm keeps going off as soon as i connect the battery !!!

    Just disconnecting the car battery and reconnecting it after a minute or so may reset everything.

    172 cup springs

    I would say it's not the springs that are at fault, your shocks are probably cream crackered, eibachs ride much better than the OE's. As said before just repaint them in black.

    Clio 172 bulb replacement.

    Sidelights are W5W, don't what the others are. Are the other lights Xenons or Halogen?

    Holts tyre weld

    All they could do is take the wheel to a tyre trader and have the puncture fixed but only during the working day of course. At night you would have to use your tyre sealant.

    Would you fit this??....

    Treat yourself to a new one. The one you have bought is from a 2000 car and I can't see that lasting long.

    newbie question

    The car is 7 to 8years old so this has to be expected. All the parts you have replaced are commonly failing according to the Forum users. Hopefully you will have some troublefree motoring for sometime now.

    Holts tyre weld

    I didn't know the 182 has no wheel well, is it because of the twin pipes out the back?

    I don't have to wait for the AA man, just get on and put the spare on myself. I'm just old skool mate, used to doing things myself.:D

    Holts tyre weld

    Once youv'e used tyre weld the tyre is scrap, no tyre fitter I know wants to fix it permernantly due to the gunk inside the tyre. When you do have a new tyre fitted they will charge a few quid extra for cleaning the rim up. Don't think it's any good for punctures in the sidewalls either.

    Running 2 cars, is it cheaper???

    2 cars do cost more to run unless you are doing mega mileage. I have 2 and they cost less to run than a youngster can insure 1 RS Clio but I am the exception as I am one of the older guys on here.

    Changing brakes tomorrow...

    A good wire brushing of the calipers, carriers helps re-assembly. Disconnect the rear handbrake cables before you start. Don't forget you need to wind in the rear pistons clockwise with a flat piece of metal so there is enough room for the new discs and pads. Recover and re-use the lipped...

    Uneven top mounts

    The part you have shown is not the top mount, it's just to stop the whole strut falling out of the turret when the car is lifted. The top mount is the large rubber moulding between the shock absorber and the turret. Solid mounts are usually bolted to the turret to improve location of the...

    Uneven top mounts

    Looks like the tatty one is screwed on upside down or someones been hitting it with a hammer. Just buy a new one unscrew the nut pull off the the old top hat and fit the new one, easy. I assume the car rides ok otherwise.

    Do you drive your clio just the the sake of it?!

    I like to do both. Not at the same time of course. You could call a trackday randomly driving around, that would be 3 tankfuls in a day and all you do is drive round and round in circles, literally.

    Urgent: Ideas required.....

    It needs to come off straight so try using a puller. On the other hand if it is seized on then a newstub axle is required.
