with no turbo on it oil would have pissed every due to the turbo oil feed not be connected to anything.this oil was probably sucked into the engine and then it run up on its own oil.the only way of stopping them is by trying to stall it(let the clutch up in gear with the brake pressed).it will...

the later vehicles were monaco blue but i can check your paintcode at work.

when your going forward the back end has to follow the front around and follows a different path to the front wheels,so reducing how sharper corner you can go around(an obvious example to show you what i mean would be a long lorry,the trailer/back end drags behind and so it has to take a wider...

If the radiators not getting as hot as the engine then the fan switch wont get hot and the fan will never come in.

is your coolant clean? eg,dirt deposits building up on the sensor and creating a sort of heat sheild affect(older renaults suffer from coolant problems).is the radiator getting as hot as the the rest of your coolant hoses?

oil level/temp sensor i think is on the front of the engine(below the oil filter near the bottom of the block).it is a black connector pointing down(the sensor is a long tube that goes into the sump).gauge sensor is probably the only sensor on rear off the engine low down.i think it is protected...

is the radiator getting hot?

undo the the 16m bolts to separate it from the wishbone.Undo the 16m pinch bolt and remove it.You can open up the hub pinch joint by hammering a small chisel in the groove(only a bit though).this opens the pinch joint slightly and releases the balljoint.

All what an ecotek valve does is create a controlled air leak so in turn making the engine run leaner.All ive heard about it has been bad reports as well.

1.7 turbo gearbox-the one in the volvo? it is a renault engine/gearbox so i would say it would definatly fit a clio not so sure about a 5 though.do you have the gearbox number(probably begins with jc or jb)

is the radiator getting hot?(if not check your thermostat,check the rads not blocked in anyway,check there is a good flow of coolant-water pump failures are not uncommen).If all ok then bridge your fan switch connector terminals with a bit of wire,does the fan work?(if yes then its a faulty fan...

the shockers/springs are unique to the williams.some performance shockers might be cheaper than gen renault

it sounds like something to do with the throttle body position/how it inducts the air.Interested to find out what it does mean though?

the oil pressure warning light sensor is on the front of the engine near the oil filter.the gauge sensor is on the rear of the engine on the o/s

emission output laws now are that strict that any new car without a cat would not pass an emissions test.yes your right that they dont actually check for a cat but they do check the emissions and the cat is there to reduce your emissions.

your warning light will come on eventually but the engine needs to be running at certain conditions for it to apply the cat test+it has to fail the test 3 times before it will put on a warning light.The cat and oxygen sensors are self tested by the obd(on board diagnostic),this is contained...

if the rear one works then there is enough water in the bottle(the rear pump is higher in the bottle than the front so runs out first).check your pipes and clean out the jets,if that doesnt work then fit a washer pump.

If you measure the components in the engine when it is stripped you might find that all it needs is a set of end shells,piston rings,oil pump and all the relevant gaskets.the bores and pistons in renault engines last forever if there looked after.Also check cam lobes for wear and the condition...

If it was noisy and it suddenley lost pressure then it sounds like a big end bearing or an end cap has collasped/broken.it must have been worn to do this and so it probably would be easier to fit a recon engine.if you fit new end bearings then the crank would need regrinding and the engine is...

Either your oil level was low or in poor condition.any mechanical failure causing loss of oil pressure would have brought the oil light on+you have a pressure gauge on a valver anyway.If the engine is turned off as soon as it loses pressure then there is a good chance you can repair it,if it is...

sounds like the headgasket.is there any oil in the coolant bottle?

when i was looking for an exhaust i was told by magnex themselves that the listed 172 exhausts dont fit models from 2001.theyve had a lot of complaints about poor fit,knocks,etc.i had one custom made from ascar in sheffield(although there other dealers around the country).they advertise in max...
