    Clio 172 headlight lens replacement

    Never seen the two together mate. Might do as a temporary measure?

    Unstable front end... any ideas?

    Just to let you all know the cars goin in to Fred next Saturday to have the powerflex ARB bushes fitted and also powerflex wishbone bushes (may as well do these as well) Gonna check front end suspension too.

    steering wheel shakes

    Excellent point. Some pikeys tried to nick my friends wheels and couldn't get the locking nut off so just left it running on one bolt. Didn't drive to well! Lol

    front suspension struts

    If it's anything like the back ones it'll probably just spin if you don't use the key. Not 100% though.

    T200 PHY? (I think) Station Road, Hinckley, 16/03 @ 5:35pm

    Think I got the reg right, nice looking Trophy. Think you flashed me once in Nuneaton on Hinckley Road. Didnt have time to flash as I was messing about changing the CD haha.

    steering wheel shakes

    Damn it! lol Posted at the same time... Buckled wheel? Sure someone will be able to come along and tell you other possible solutions shortly.

    steering wheel shakes

    I'd start with wheel balancing mate. Only £5 a wheel. I've found with Renault's there's no sure fire diagnostic for any problem. It's just a case of starting with the cheapest solution and working up! lol

    Clio 172 headlight lens replacement

    You'll need to replace the whole unit then mate :-( Not cheap unfortunately! Be careful of the ones on eBay, make sure they are genuine and have the same colour plastics inside, some are black, some are grey! You'll only need the headlight it's self, not the adjuster, starter pack, ballast, or...

    my doors lock but my boot doesnt

    My mums has gone too. Had to order a new motor for hers.

    Unstable front end... any ideas?

    I don't have any numbers mate but you weren't far off. Haha! Are the ARB bushes 23 & 25 mm ?

    Clio 172 headlight lens replacement

    This. Mine looked shite. Few hours work and they look like new! The price from Renault would be for a new headlight. They don't come apart as far as I know.

    Unstable front end... any ideas?

    I'm just gonna get Fred to do it. Nice and easy then. Haha.

    Unstable front end... any ideas?

    I'm gonna get my ARB and wishbone bushes changed I think. My ARB bushes look Knackered so its the next step I guess. Get powerflex rather than standard Renault.

    Wow screw that. Haha. My insurance has never been below £750 my mate in the next town only paid like £350/£400

    Replacement Xenon Bulbs for a 182 FF

    Well worth it mate. It's two bolts and about 10 torx screws. Then it just unclips either side and lifts off. Membership is well worth it. I've already saved more than enough on discounts etc.

    Not with my credit rating. But good shout!!

    Replacement Xenon Bulbs for a 182 FF

    Cool. The bulbs are really long so youll struggle. One slight slip and the bulbs Knackered. Bumper comes off in 2 minutes. Better safe than sorry. You'll see what I mean when your holding the bulb.

    Ouch, standard discs FTW!

    Unstable front end... any ideas?

    I had laser alignment done today as well as Fred did it by eye, I have to say it wasn't very far out!! lol The main reason Fred changed my track rod ends and steering arms was because the tracking was out and it was all seized up (the car was pulling to the left 80% of the time). Whilst...

    No worries, hope it goes well!

    2.0 brakes...

    It's not gonna be cheap mate. Probably kill the brake balance for MOT as well unless your converting the rears as well?

    Awesome thanks. :-D

    Replacement Xenon Bulbs for a 182 FF

    Yeah I did, maybe a local motor factor... but if they get the part from Renault your back to where you started and paying well over the odds! By the way, always replace Xenons in pairs otherwise you'll have two different colours!! I have some 8000k bulbs sat at home but wouldn't be able to...

    2.0 brakes...

    I'd go with what Sam has said. Unfortunately I don't think its going to be as simple as just putting on a bigger disc. May even need to go as far as swapping the hub as well??

    Going up yet again

    That's the cheapest I can get (£968), I don't have a grand sitting around so I'll have to pay month meaning that it'll go up to about £1500 and £150 per month. Stupidly to insure a brand new 2011 Volkswagen Polo GTi which is worth 10x more than my car (£23,000) it would only cost me £650 a...

    I've never seen anywhere that sells them off the shelf unfortunately. Mine came next day when I ordered them from HIDs-4-u

    Everyone should stop crashing their Clios! I have exactly this problem, first year with 0 NCD was about £700, then with 1 NCD it was £750, this year with 2 years NCD it's nearly £1k!!!
