    Dash Clock

    To be fair it doesn't take long to remove the top dash, hardest bit is getting the three screws out in windscreen vent

    Trackday tow car

    I use an ML, yes it's petrol and it's mpg is poor to say the least but it has a huge tow weight that's just over 3600kg (providing you have the right license otherwise there's issues there I believe, but that's another story) and use it daily too

    wishbone bushes life

    In my experience it varies car by car, a lot depends on condition of roads the cars been driven over, best off having and seeing if there's any movement in the bushes or ask a garage to check them, if they've never been changed in the cars life then they probably won't be at their best now

    Cobra bucket seat mounting with height and slide adjustment?

    I could be wrong but my understanding is that by using the side mount option the seat will be 'fixed' into position, in order to have it adjustable you'll need to attach runners to the base instead, I don't think you can do both as the side mounts sit wider apart on the seat subframe although as...

    Clio 172 Cup - Track Project

    There's a rolling road in Westbury at M Tech, I believe Dan either does or did use it, if it's any help?

    182, Orange/Green Light on Dash but S/W Controls Not Working

    Admittedly it wasn't on my clio but when the merc did this it was the brake light switch playing up, as with most things electrical though it's well worth having diagnostics checked first rather than just changing part after part in the hope you'll fix the issue

    Clio Race Series Options

    How have you found driving to/from events, I assume apart from tyres the car is ready to go straight out onto the track?

    Are all the sensors and vacuum hose connected up on the manifold?

    Immobiliser Light Missing. Part Link/Number?

    Yeah it just shows when the alarm/immobiliser is active, it doesn't stop it operating, just a visual reminder that it's on

    Immobiliser Light Missing. Part Link/Number?

    Ahh I see, you're looking to replace it then? If so try something like led alarm light on ebay. Some will be flashing dummy lights but you can get replacement ones too

    New 182 STOP and BATTERY light with burning electrical smell

    Quite probably yes, if the alternator is failing it will cause all sorts of issues as the correct voltage isn't being maintained anymore

    Immobiliser Light Missing. Part Link/Number?

    Have you got an aftermarket alarm fitted? It looks suspiciously like it's the immobiliser light off one of those rather than standard renault job

    D2S Headlight bulb fitting

    You'll get away with the drivers side, but passenger one is another story. If you're not too confident I'm only in Westbury if you wanted to drop over, im more than happy to lend a hand

    inlet manifold seal

    It certainly should do, I did some work on one a while ago with the exact same symptoms (albeit with higher idle speed) and once proper gaskets were in it ran spot on

    Solid top mounts/Alignment

    Won't let me edit the above but can recommend Carson, have used them a few times and have always been impressed with the results, ranging from run of the mill to exhaust scraping low and also 4x4's on 22" wheels

    Solid top mounts/Alignment

    @Sesqui89 Carson tyres in Melksham or J Day in Henstridge both have Hunter kit, if you search for alignmycar.co.uk it will bring up who uses Hunter alignment :smile:

    smallest wheels to fit 172?

    I've got a couple of 15" steels kicking about if you need some, don't think tyres are legal but do hold air

    How to remove the centre air vents?

    They're part of the lower dash I believe, the adjustable parts may well come out with some force (probably have to break them out) but the rest is moulded with the dash

    Changing Rear Brake Caliper

    You'll need to bleed the brakes, new caliper will have air in it and once you take brake line off old one it'll start to leak, with the potential to allow air into brake line/s if apart for long enough

    Seepage

    I'd say it's the air con dryer, removes moisture from system. As above probably uv dye for detecting leaks, out of interest does the air con actually work?

    Rear light problem

    It'll probably clean up ok to be honest, otherwise it's a case of cutting it off a few inches back (so that you have some wiring to use) and connecting a new one on, personally I solder everything but you could use crimp on connectors I'd need be

    Rear light problem

    Check condition of the connection for the rear light, possibly corrosion to the connector, could be bad earth point, this is under the rear plastic panel where the boot locks into place

    OMP bases

    I was going to say no but having looked at it again it's more evident than first appeared This is mine, couldn't get a beeter photo as the mrs car was sat in front and I was too lazy to move it first. I did indeed use 8mm bolts, I tried 10's first but it's all a little too tight and didn't sit...
