If he is seriously considering anything like that i'd suggest selling the Clio and using the cash along with the money he'd spend doing that to buy an R26 and go from there. Far superior car in almost every way as standard with more tuning scope for less.

Also, wrong section to ask for help in matey

Nope, the struts are different.

Did this come from the Auto-Trader in need of a cylinder head rebuild (timing belt failure)? The registration looks familiar and was in Derby just before Christmas? Not a fan of the wheels but thats personal taste... nice sport though. Mick

Or Renault can supply one for around £15... takes 2-3 days

You and Dave may mock the brake cleaner but i know the truth lolz

I purposely didn't work this weekend to... not cool. Now my hands feel all rough from washing up :mad:

Pop the dust seal, apply WD40, go again. Not wanting to state the obvious but some people fail to get this right... ... the rear pads have a locating boss on the back of it which needs to sit in the grove of the piston. If it doesnt the pad isn't sat correctly and so sticks out further. Be...

So is this deffo off as i've had nothing other than what Duck said above? Not cool guys... do you know how hard it is to get permission from the wife to go out and play these days? You busted ma balls guys, busted em hard and now i've got to do house chores like a b**ch. Mick

Renault recommend a Glycol based anti-freeze. "Type-D" is merely the mix specification which states it protects between -20 and -23Degrees and is not a brand or product name. It comes in various colours also but its not mega important only stipulating the suggested time period it should be left...

The "Red engine light with STOP in it" is not the imob light. Its the general fault lightand and it flashing like that says he has a Level 2 fault due to something really important either giving up and so is not responding or its not connected to the vehicles network and so needs plugging in...

Get them checked out properly as a matter of urgency! Do not f**k about with your brakes

Check your battery and connections

Is it a Clio II or a Clio III? I suspect a UCH fault. Bring it to me, i'll touch it.

Not always the cheapest option. I have a precision engineer next to me who does these for £15 a wheel and promises near perfect unless the rim is broken.

Balancing out will still produce a wobble on the wheel in cornering and under braking if its bent up pretty bad. Best off repairing or replacing. Mick

Don't be like that my little cupcake... come on, I'll give you hugs if you come and be a big boy with the rest of us playing in the snow.

Do it - would be rude otherwise.

Easy enough - cut the old plastic grip off and slide, theen bolt down your new one. Mick

LoLz @ that price... and Renault UK wonder why the dealer network is failing. I'd want proof myself before spending a wedge like that as the ECM has absolutely no control over the hazzard lights or sirens/horns. Possibly a UCH fault but i'd send it to someone thats actually interested in fixing...

Mint, keep us updated as i'm going unless Matt posts up its cancelled. Mick

I set mine off at Dave Walkers when it was being mapped and it wouldn't shut up no matter what i did. Two 13mm bolts off, sniped the sounder and dropped it in a bucket of water... silence!

The way the keyfobs work is they are "encoded" with a 12 character alpha-numeric "key" which is specific to each vehicle and this "key" can only be written or assigned into the fobs memory once which is why a keyfob that has previously been assigned to another vehicle cannot be re-allocated or...

Not really, it depends on how fouled up the throttle body is as it effects the air flow thru the plate by blocking it which results in the actuated body having to advance further to stabalise the idle speed... this results in a rough idle.

I take it back, keys on vehicles this age aren't covered by the new key-set discount... it applies to VIN coded keys/cards only (ghey). To *supply* a new key fob blank for a 172/182 will be £72.58 +vat then, if you want the key blade adding thats another £13.95 +vat (it takes 2-3 days for...

I can code keys yes but you need to check your service book for the Quality Certificate as i need the 12digit Supp. Key No. which if you don't have i will have to get it from Renault.net which will cost £25 extra. Mick

Key prices are about to go up in the air as new part numbers are appearing for key "kits" containing two keys for the price of one. Key fobs are normally around the £90 mark then another £40 for coding... retail that is but i may be able to get them a bit cheaper but it still needs coding. Mick

its the same job really except the front end doesnt need to come off and the aux. belt takes 10mins to swap... still a decent size task though and not 10mins

We charge £380 fully inclussive; thats timing belt kit, aux-belt kit, cam seals x4 (front and rear) and all fixings, service book stamped and 12months parts and labour warranty. If you want the waterpump doing its an extra £120 and includes for a new thermostat and type-D coolant. Mick
