Probably a relay. But why it does it when your accelerating I have no idea. Are you sure its not the glovebox rattling?

With the gearbox oil make sure you get the right grade and most on here recomend castrol gear oil. I would get the guy round the corner to do it over Kwick Fit. Maybe get him to show you how to do it.

Its just the way the car is I quite like it

Castrol gearbox oil worked wonders on mine.

The heatsheild is the thin metal thats above the exhaust. Also note that the holes do not line up with the ones by the door. Look at where they are on the seat to get an idea of where they are in relation to the other 2.

did you have any luck with fixing it?

Doesn't need to be jacked up just lay on your back and have a feel around for some holes in the exhaust heat sheild as thats where the nuts are.

It's a good way to improve induction noise on the cheap especially on a lower powered car. You may lose a small amount of power though

I would be checking the temp sensor also

Sorry my post was aimed towards Leeshez. Can you hear the clutch engaging when you turn it on?

As above I think. I used to have an ecotek valve on my old car (when I was young and naive) was the biggest waste of £30 ever!!

Sort of true. However if air-con isn't used often then the rubber seals in the system can dry out, due to the oil in the system not being circulated which in turn lets the gas escape and then the system will need to be regassed. Although the gas 'leaks' out in this way it is not a real leak...

All of these would sell allot on here.

Who told you it didn't need regassing? Just because the clutch engages doesn't mean that it couldn't do with a regas.

If its not used often then the seals dry up and it will leak gas. You should use at least once a week (preferably on every journey even if only for 5-10 minutes and even in the winter) to keep the seals well lubricated. Also before anyone says you can use the aircon in the winter but just...

The belt should not be any tighter than the old one that come's off otherwise there would be a chance of the timing being incorrect. I just don't see the point of all these people changing it when they are known NOT to be a faulty part. Plus the coolant pump can be changed by just removing...

Brentacre for me Just agree a top BHP limit and then all mods are free. Dont even charge you to add things to your policy

Why does everybody recommend getting the waterpump done on the sport engines? Has anybody actually heard of one failing!!?? It can't be a common problem. Seems to be a cliosport.net myth and I expect renault have been doing a cracking trade in waterpumps!

Have you checked for leaks?

If its a genuine renault part then it should come with a years defect warrenty IIRC

Set out to adjust the handbrake cable today then noticed that the inner rear pads were down to 0.5-1mm of pad! They have only been on there about 20,000 miles is this a normal amount of wear? They have been through a trackday as well. The drivers side disk was quite worn compared to the...

I got ford moondust but its still not that close to factory.

Thats for use in PC watercooling which is not its attended use. When I used it in my water cooling setup it made a right mess of my pipes but it did reduce temperatures by a few degrees. I havn't used it since or in a car though.

A 45 degree samco would be better but it won't fit unless you relocate the battery.

Its all subjective to what you call loud. I dont think its a police magnet. I find the police only pull people over who are driving like p****s not because how loud there exhaust is. I like the sound mine makes I just dont like the boom at motorway speeds. Its reasonably quiet when driving...

I quite like it TBH. Looks allot better with a front plate on as it breaks the black up a bit.

You'll have to take a hacksaw to the "elephants trunk" tail pipe so its sits above the base of the PH1's bumper or it looks crap. I think the exhaust is mainly for the PH2 which I think has a deeper rear bumper.

+1

My stealth isn't raspy but it does drone when it gets very hot and on the motorway. It got quieter after a few thousand miles. I just wish I could do something to stop the droning on long journeys.

I removed mine but then cut around the silver heatsheild so that could be put back on. The sheild needs to be there to stop heat getting to the brake lines.
