I had 17s on me valver and had to take em off as they damaged an engine mount adn wheel baring....... Damn annoying coz she looked sweet with them on! SO just because people havent had problems with them yet - it dont mean that they wont!

They want 38 for the seals each!! Bit pricey but hey - wot can you do! Are they easy to fit?

Quick question - the rubber that goes around the front window seal on mine is all bubbles on both sides of the car - any ideas of why this may be? Can i get new ones for a good price?

Got any more pics of yours cliosportcraig? It looks great!

Its really not a mjor problem at all - most valvers have this problem (i say problem although it isnt). If the noise does become annoying then you can get them done not expensive and you could probably do it yourself but if you arent confident then it shouldnt cost more than £200 tops for...

Something of a silly question there Soneji. Lets leave it there.

i think superted has flown off with spotty!! or was it dotty? cant remember :p

There really isnt much you can do except to keep trying - the short scaffold pole idea genuinly sounds like a good one. or the hammer idea - although, make sure your tools are stong enough to take the counter strain otherwise you may bend em!

Doesnt matter which end you loosen first - so long as one goes the other should follow suit eventually!

Erm - well, can you get a socket on the nut and bolt?

Spray some of that stuff that loosens nut and bolts on- leavefor five mins and then give it a go - usually does the trick!

3k for some paint!!! - that is not cheap or worth it and i envy you lot for having so much dolla to throw about! Got any spare?

When i bought my valva i realised that me pasenger side door doesnt sit flush with the body work and that the rubber window seal (that goes around the glaas and sits was bubbly all along the bottom. This is the same on the drivers side! Any way of fixing it? The guy i bought it off rekoned i...

Take one down to boots and stick it on one of their scales there - they always have em and they are only 20p or something! ;)

It was down pipe, center section and back box actually! Full thing - my friend has his own website and can get stuff on trade http://www.anythingcars.comwww.anythingcars.com Its still under construction but he has really really good prices on lotsa things. Plus the little remote control cars he...

How much are we looking to pay for a respray then mate?

Mornin, Just wondering if anybody knew of a good place to get a full stainless system for a valva - not lookin to spend too much. My mate has offered me £200 for a full stainless mongoose system but im not too hot with cash at the momment........ maybe im just a cheap skate! Mind you, Quick fit...

alternator belt mate - its probably loose - take it renault and the y will gladly tighten it up for ya - that should fix it - happens all the time.

I have just fixed this problem in mine - EXACTLY the same thing - This is going to sound silly but - if you have the standard alloy wheels on and the wheel cover is not fitted properly then the wheel will seem to knock- also - the chances are that at least one of the mounts is a little loose - i...

its white smoke - just smelly very oily?

Ah yes, the ongoing sunroof saga that we all must endure in order to become master of the clio. All of the f**kers leak - its a legendarly balls up on behalf of renault and the bane of many owners lives - so you are not alone - It all comes down to the glass settling on the seal correctly or the...

oh i see - like tat is it eh? Nobody cares about poor little old me :(

I know Valvas get hot its normal but when mine gets so hot that a little smoke comes out of the bonnet vent from the EXTREMELY hot exhaust manifold it makes me question the reliabilityof the thing - plus the smell is pretty bad! Like burning oil! Im sure there isnt any on the manifold though...

Sounds like they didnt tighten the tensioner bolt to the cam belt - monkeys! Therefore the belt would be loose and not spinning at the required speed - glad to hear its fixed though! i had to do the whole thing myself - took 4 weekends as id had never done anything like it before and i did not...

Tut tut, shouldnt treat your lady with such disrespect - you should only change gear at 3000 rpm :p

like i said - the performance part is complete rubbish - the cleaning part is not! And it cost A LOT more than normal unleaded!!!

Nope, its all complete marketing wankiness - may keep ure engine slightly cleaner but thats really about it!

Just get an induction kit mate and i relatively standard exhaust - that way the noise of ragging it only comes when you actually do - and i agree - big zorsts often do sound extremely gay and they make us look like we should be in a Nova or a fiesta xr2!!!

My front right wheel makes a rough noise when i let off - ive noticed that a cover underneath my car that protects like a round thing is split and ahs been for a while - its covered in oil - am thinking that this could be my problem -sounds similar to what you guys are describing......
