    Smoking clio 182 loss of coolant .....Help!!

    The radiators aren't massively pricey no, I believe about £64 for a non-genuine Nissens unit but the pipes I'd try and find second hand as try will cost a fair bit more new from Renault. Look for vehicles being broken or give Josh/Kat a call at Renparts Mick

    Clio 172 Cup - cutting out/not starting... Ran out of ideas now Help!

    I'd be surprised if its the actual ECU at fault mate, honestly but have a good luck and let us know how you get on. Mick

    SERV light after changing uch.

    Not entirely true... Different vehicles have different specs. Some have xenons, some have rain/light sensors and the UCH's are configured to each individual car. If you put a UCH to a car that it's expecting say a rain sensor on and it doesn't have one then boom, there's a configuration...

    Cup won't start, possibly electrical issue?

    UCH fault Mike... They are bloody funny things when they go wrong. Needs CLIP to confirm though before panick buying. Mick

    Clio 172 Cup - cutting out/not starting... Ran out of ideas now Help!

    A bit yes... Now you've got to diagnose the electrical circuit to the pump as its either the controlling side or the supply side that's at fault. Starting at the pump end work backwards and inspect the wiring loom for damaged wiring (trapped, crushed, exposed/shorts) and be sure to check all...

    EML light flashing.

    A flashing MIL is purely telling you that what ever is wrong has the potential to damage your CAT... Normally a coil or injector fault Mick

    Clio 172 Cup - cutting out/not starting... Ran out of ideas now Help!

    Are you sure there's a good, stable voltage at the pump?

    Strange question. Phase 2 standard throttle bodies dieing?

    Meh! Have you got a good earth and 5v reference at the pedal Chip?

    It's the relay control circuit mate. Fit a jumper and drive it in ;)

    197 cams and remap

    He must've done that after 1pm cos before that (before he's had 2 Redbulls and 5 cigs) he's blind as a bat LoLz

    Clio 172 Cup - cutting out/not starting... Ran out of ideas now Help!

    Okay, before you go out buying things lets try jumping the relay pins to see if it's a pump problem or not.

    Clio 172 Cup - cutting out/not starting... Ran out of ideas now Help!

    More likely to be corrosion at the terminals tbh but there's no harm in swapping the clicky bits to. Jut make sure there's no nasty nasty green stuff when you pull the old relays out.

    Which ever isn't working yes but it won't be the cause of your random cutting out car.

    Clio 172 Cup - cutting out/not starting... Ran out of ideas now Help!

    Deffo a wiring related fault there with the H02... Low voltage and heater function will be caused by the same thing, no power and as you've found out simply changing the sensor will be of no use. I'd wager all your faults are down to a faulty loom or poor earth hiding somewhere.

    197 cams and remap

    He's always in work... I hear his recent track car build did bloody well yesterday at Donnington to. Dan will equally be able to sort you out so I guess it boils down to location, location, location

    197 cams and remap

    Personally I'd say you need Fred to hook you up. I'm not a tuner but I believe he does the GT cams fitted with new belts for £900 then you just need the remap.

    exhaust mani to cat bolt loose and rounded.

    Grinder with a cutting disc straight thru the exposed bolt section at the joint then as above, replace with genuine fitting kit.

    Timing belt/water pump question.

    Use a genuine water pump though not an £11 white box cheap thing

    Strange question. Phase 2 standard throttle bodies dieing?

    That's where I'm at with my thinking now Gaz because the scope traces show no faults what so ever and I just cannot replicate the fault. The only fault logged was the knock sensor but that wouldn't cause a stall and failure to restart condition. I also suspect it's got the wrong plugs fitted so...

    Strange question. Phase 2 standard throttle bodies dieing?

    Yeah they're right but it's actually for the LHD Cup vehicles which really suffered with rubbing issues in the drivers inner arch liner area. I've fitted a few myself for this very reason... I believe the short loom is around £27 now and It's much quicker to run 5 new wires than it is to strip...

    Strange question. Phase 2 standard throttle bodies dieing?

    Chip, try the CPS an loom but I'd still be tempted to run five wires directly from the pedal to the ECU to see if that cures the issue. Mick

    Damgerous brake pads please read

    Yep, I always tell 197/R26 owners to go hunt them out before coming in. May have to buy 10sets for stock as they're brilliant (and cheaper than turning them out myself).

    Damgerous brake pads please read

    Really, have you ever tried to get the guide pins out of these Brembos before? Sometimes they come out with ease but more often than not they've been in that long they're badly corroded so need the calliper removing from the vehicle so you can show them some napalm fury!

    Help/Advice High Pressure fuel injection pump

    They *should* use a brand new unit however I've seen them fit cheap alternators and invoice it as genuine before. There's nothing wrong with a properly refurbished pump though.

    Damgerous brake pads please read

    That sounds about right for the main dealer and it *should* be a price to replace the brake pads, fitting kit (note x2 kits required for x1 car) and labour. Pads are around £80 from Renault and the fitting kit is around £28 per calliper so that's going to be say 2hrs labour including for...

    Help/Advice High Pressure fuel injection pump

    Hi Stu, sorry to hear of the trouble. I'm afraid it depends on where the air leak is... I'm guessing that it's the plastic connector on the back of the HP? If that's the case then I'm afraid a new pump is required as the stupid plastic connectors are a designed weak point to punish careless...
