    clio 197 steering wheel melting.

    Renault should change it no quibs, it depends where u take it tho. When i worked there I changed anything like that, not my money at the end of the day! The dealers try to not change things like that as they fear they wont get paid for it by renault due to the whole 'wear and tear' thing.

    £3950 for a valver!?

    Yea its been around alot, i worked on it at renault years ago and it was a shed then! Theres an Omex Thingy me bob inside, near the gearstick. I assumed it had a crazy engine in it running on omex hence the ridiculous price, looking at the engine it appears not.

    Engine flushes, yay or nay?

    Depends what engine it is really, generally on petrol engines id say dont bother just drop the oil. Remember doing a flush on my old clio 16v, it rattled like hell after, sounded like a CVH. Then on the other hand it can be a good thing, Renault K9K engine for example, theyre quite prone to...

    Never been so confused

    Depends what coilovers you use i suppose. If i had another clio, id have it on sportlines with uprated shocks, the handling is really good and you've got confidence to push it hard. Coilovers may be good on track, but they seem to feel un settled on back roads. All IMO of course.

    Never been so confused

    Have you considered sportline springs with uprated dampers?? Handling is good and they're not bumpy like some coilovers, much better for back lane blasting IMO. Only probs is they dont look very low. Worth a thought.

    ABS light STILL on after replacing all sorts!

    If you've got money to burn you could just keep throwing parts at it!! Im not sure how reliable RS tuner is for codes, never used it. But previous faults should be stored, if you had clip you would be able to see them.

    ABS light STILL on after replacing all sorts!

    Could be many things. Have you put it on clip to see if there are any error codes??

    CV boot clip...

    Jubilee's are ok, just gotta make sure they've got clearance to the hub and stuff. I prefer the proper metal c.v ties, and clean all gease off the outside of the boot.

    HELP - badly oxidised red, nothign will touch it

    I think it would look good, maybe need to paint the wheels a dark colour to tie in with the carbon wrap. But then you might aswell just spend the cash on a respray?! Unless its lots cheaper?? I have no idea how much it is to get vinyl wrap done?

    HELP - badly oxidised red, nothign will touch it

    Carbon wrap on the bonnet, bumper and boot could look cool!

    HELP - badly oxidised red, nothign will touch it

    The reason i say it Joe is becuase my wife's megane paint is in a similar state, ive tried wet flatting and had the rotary on it, but all thats doing is polishing the laquer and not the red underneath thats faded. Someone feel free to tell me im talking horse s**t tho!!
  29. SkidMarx

    HELP - badly oxidised red, nothign will touch it

    Is it because its clear coated, and its the red underneath thats faded? If so your never gonna bring the red back up?? I could be wrong.
