i managed to get a cup wheel and tyre from work for free.f**k the weight saving that foam is w**k.

ok.whats the phone number mathew?

ok mate.when youve sorted it well go up then.

remove the inner sunroof trim.pull down the roof lining slightly so you can undo the 10m bolts(think there is 16).remove the roof drain tubes from the frame.disconnect any moter connections.lift the plastic frame out from the top.

might pull the shoes off the retaining clip/springs.but you can normally refit them and new clip kits are only a couple of quid anyway

might have a run on nobles rollers but i just wanted to know how much they seem to under read before i did.

give it a good clean off and see if you can find any leaks.

you could just fit springs to save some doe although that complete kit isnt a bad price but it only lowers a max of 40mm.

did you overfill the bottle? pas fluid expands a lot when hot so you have to make sure you dont exceed the max mark.

its a clio 2 so a williams lump wont just drop straight in.on older clios you could use the old deisal rack and pas electric pump so you could keep pas with the turbo lump.seeing as yours is a clio 2 you could try and use the electric pas system(electric moter on the column) used in clio 2 phase...

The quote worked on one on your previous posts mate. Maybe just a glitch-bloody computers eh.

if its been sat for 18 months with water in the bores i dread to think what they look like.sounds like the engines scrap mate im afraid.

you could disconnect the injector to eliminate it.

have you disconnected and checked the contacts/pins in the large multiplugs in the engine relay box?

if the dizzy contacts are corroded/worn it could fail more in damp/wet conditions.

Not meaning to tempt fate but have you checked each cylinders compression when cold?

This particular earth is for the engine components only. Injection components are sensitive and easily affected by poor earths. If the strap is corroded then water will affect it. Defo sounds like water is getting in somewhere. Have you checked things like the distributor cap?

mainly but not always.have done a clio at work with esp but rear drums.as long as you have abs you can have esp.esp just uses a abs hydraulic block with extra solenoids,an extra yaw sensor,steering angle sensor and a multiplex connection between injection and abs.

there is an earth strap from the end of the gearbox casing to the n/s inner wing.i think there is one on the engine somewhere as well but i cant remember where(probably on the back of the head somewhere)

was your reading slightly lower then expected then mate?

have you had a run at nobles?

that shouldnt affect it but it sounds like water is getting in the underbonnet electrics somewhere.have you checked the under bonnet earth points?

i live not far from nobles so i might get one done just to see what ive got. Is 190bhp what you were expecting?

the low temp rad switch and thermostat wouldnt cause any problems.

What about giving the ecu connector a clean with some electrical cleaner? Have a look at all wiring in general to see if the protective sheathing has split anywhere allowing water in the loom.

you just need a grill and a bumper.wont be to bad as you need a new bumper anyway.

priveledge rings a bell.bit of a rare model though.probably easier to find a 172 rear axle dont you think?

dont say things like that youll only tempt fate.fingers crossed eh.

if its locked up with the water then youll have a nice set of bent con rods.have you tried removing the plugs to get the water out and trying it,you never know you might be lucky.the bent rods would cause a drop in compression on the cylinder with the bent rod,an engine imbalance and if the head...

pleased with it then. my mate had a bad run in with nobles. how much do they charge for a power run on the rollers?
