My rear calipers sometimes stick when pulling away, as far as I know all Clio's do it, at least every one i've been in has, also I have Brembo HC discs on the front and they have surfce corrosion on them almost every morning, all discs do it.
So it would appear there was nothing wrong with Lambda 1 or anything else for that matter, I had a look at the pedal box and when I touched the accelerator connector it clicked, I deleted the fault codes with my RSTuner and they've never come back and the car has ran perfectly for the past week...
I had one leaking a few years ago, removed the bolt, put some gasket sealant under the bolt's head, screwed it back in until it was just nipped, it never leaked again.
I agree about the squirming under braking, but at 70-100 mine are fine, they're alot better than the RS2's I had, first hot day they ended up coating the sides of the car in rubber, the RS3's seem a lot better plus they grip from cold quite well on my 172, but then i've had tyres people with...
I didn't really word that post too well, you press the bushes and sleeves in together, they will go in 90% of the way by hand, but then they need a press to go the 10% that matters.
Yeah they need pressing in, metal sleeves first, then the bushes themselves, we used these to press mine in.
If I was you i'd upgrade to polybushes, i've got the harder black series in mine but the ride's still the same, I just wanted bushes I never needed to replace again.
If your beam's already out then it would be a good time to upgrade, the new ones will need pressing in but the old ones will come out fine, but the metal shells they sit in will need knocking out with a hammer and screwdriver, or you can cut through them and mangle them out.
I just polybushed...
What an amazing sleeper, even with the lairy paint, body kit and vented bonnet, there's no way you'd be expecting that thing to be quick, I bet that's upset a few people away from the lights.
Nice one dude.
I had limp mode when I took the dog out, but not on the way home or going to work, I can't trust it though as the drive to work is all duel carrigeways, doing 40 on a 60 will cause many people to be angry with me.
On the ecp site there's 3, one of them says 'rear' so that must be after cat, the other 2 i'm not sure about, i'll just buy the cheaper Bosch one and hope that's the one.
Don't fancy my chances driving up the M1 in limp mode at 2k rpm in 5th, 30mph on the motorway will probably get me killed.
I have a mate with a fully kitted out garage at my disposal, if I can't fix it on the driveway he'll definitely fix it.
Or this one? (sorry my internet keeps f*cking up)

Hopefully the pedal connectors are just covered in crap and dog hair and it's an easy fix, at least I can fix the 02 sensor problem, although not sure which is the right one. (other than it being a Bosch)...
Limp mode kicked in today, i'm thinking O2 sensor is more than likely the culprit, A/C refrigeration sensor is probably freaking out because the A/C got binned years ago, although i've never seen that fault code before.
I've no clue what the deal is with other 3 though :
Brake info fault
Shift...
