    LOL i've never understood why it's pronounced like that.

    This tops it. Airbrushed ph2 and white leather

    It looks like the kind of drawings a child would do on the back of their maths book.

    I completely forgot once and was 2 months overdue, luckily all the Police cuts have meant none of their cars have anpr anymore.

    [Apr 18, 2015] Shakespeare Raceway RQYB 18/04/2015 (Shakespeare County Raceway)

    I was a bit gutted I wasn't there to hand Stokie his arse for the 3rd time in a row, I see he's added some go faster graphics to his car, well I guess if you can't go fast you might as well look fast. :cool:

    Rear exhaust mount bolt loose- stripped thread.

    The captive nuts are b*stards, the welds break and there's no way to get them off, my backbox is fixed to the car with zip ties and jubilee clips, they work far better than the mounts.

    clio 182 wont start

    At least you can get a refund if it doesn't sort the problem.

    clio 182 wont start

    I had a problem with mine once where it would intermittently start, sometimes firing up perfect sometimes battery was totally dead, turned out my aux belt was slipping because of a dodgy alternator bracket, it wasn't charging the battery properly and it also knackered the alternator in the end...

    clio 182 wont start

    Eh? Jump leads on the starter? If it's bump starting and the light's flickering then your battery's f*cked.

    clio 182 wont start

    I might still be the battery you know, you'd be surprised how many problems they can cause, so did it start when you bump started it? I don't mean to sound like a dick or anything so I apologise in advance, but you do know the difference between bump starting and jump starting right?

    clio 182 wont start

    So if it wont jump start off another battery, immobiliser isn't freaking out, next stop is starter motor if it's just clicking.

    clio 182 wont start

    I think it says permanently on rather than flash.

    Sounds like the immobiliser.

    Car won't lock ?

    Talk to Renault Wolverhampton in the traders section, if it's a part that can be replaced they'll have it.

    Car won't lock ?

    Yep, it's the nipple thing sticking up on the right of the grill plate, just next to the sticker, you might want to check it's wires and make sure it's still plugged in. You could also hold it down and lock your car to see if it still works.

    Car won't lock ?

    Is the plastic shut button thing still in it's place under the bonnet?
  16. DaveDreads

    Car won't lock ?

    Yep, or one of the doors isn't shut properly.

    Clio Modifying - if you could start over where would you go....

    Only problem with that though is you're spending more than the car's worth on a single mod, there's no doubt it's a great mod but when the cost of buying it and getting it fitted is the same as buying another 172 you can see why not many people do it.

    Holy sh*t, we need vids of this thing in action.

    Frayz's 550bhp+ Prodrive edition Impreza build...

    I don't think BTCC cars are this well engineered.

    [Apr 18, 2015] Shakespeare Raceway RQYB 18/04/2015 (Shakespeare County Raceway)

    I'm not making this either, 25-40 quid to get in and race, 20/30 quid on fuel, 20/30 quid on booze and food for camping, can't really afford to spunk 80/90 quid up the wall on a weekend jolly.

    pistonheads dicussion about clios

    Sh*t tyres give you understeer, put decent rubber on them and they turn in like a house fly, unless you're going too fast of course but that's down to sh*t driving rather than the car.

    V6 airbox

    I have considered putting a 90 degree bend on mine so it sits right up against the grill to channel air directly into it, but I don't want rain water to be blown in.

    Remove Rear Seats

    I haven't had any back seats in mine for years mainly due to owning a German Shepherd, i've lined the back of mine with a big hevey duty non slip rubber mat, it's as wide as the car and is nearly long enough to reach the tail gate, I haven't cut mine to fit the contours of the car but it could...

    V6 airbox

    Yes, pointing to the right.

    V6 airbox

    Get rid of the hoses and leave the box open, if you look at the right side of the front grill there's a little channel that feeds air directly into the engine where the boxes intake hole is, i've been running mine like that for years and never suffered with reduced power due to heat soak.

    [Aug 1, 2015] ClioSport Saturday 2015 (Blyton, Gainsborough)

    You might have to set your tent up before you go on track and leave all your crap in there, they'll be people camping on the Friday night so you won't be alone.

    Clio Modifying - if you could start over where would you go....

    It'll be the coilovers that have ruined it, I bet if you went to cup dampers and Eibach springs most of the rattles would go away.
