    CLIO 1.2 16V ENGINE HELP

    I checked the top mount with sockets, the bottom is from memory. I think the nut on the back of the dogbone is a size up from its bolt. I think I put an adjustable wrench on the nut and undone the bolt with a socket. (My socket set goes upto 20mm so it can't be larger then that)

    CLIO 1.2 16V ENGINE HELP

    Really easy, the dogbone is just two bolts under the engine. Unless you are really flexible you will need to jack the front up to get at them. If you end up doing the top mount you need to jack up the engine from the bottom to support it. I can grab bolt torques for you after work if you...

    Clio wheel help?!?!

    The centre bore (CB) of the wheel is probably too small for the Clio hub (Clio hub is 60.1mm). Grab a ruler and measure the gap on the wheel (circled red), anything less that 60mm is a no-go I'm afraid.

    Clio wheel help?!?!

    Welcome to the Forum. If the wheel won't stay in place it could be that the centre bore is too small to go on the hub? More info on which Clio you have and specific details about how the wheel is not fitting will help with diagnosis.

    Clutch pedal return spring dci

    Doing a quick google search for MK2 DCI pedal box brought this image up from an Ebay listing (https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/133752838086). Checking your vid it looks similar but I could be wrong, you can see the wider side of the spring near the back of the assembly. Hopefully somebody can jump...

    As someone who has no idea where that goes I would try your VIN number in https://partsouq.com/ and see if you can find the relevant illustration of where it lived

    Seeking Driveshaft Leak Advice

    Thank you for the advice everyone, priorities seem to be: 1) New metal clip + Keep box topped off and monitor 2) If it continues to leak (or more importantly if it gets worse over time) fit a new genuine Renault boot 3) Then if the new boot doesn't sort the issue replace the driveshaft

    Seeking Driveshaft Leak Advice

    Noticed a build up/splatter gearbox side of my passenger driveshaft. Can't see any tears in the boot and it seems to coming out the side, down the shaft while splattering on the steering rack and frame. (Wheels at full lock to the right when image taken). Metal clip isn't loose, can rotate it...

    172 not starting - Solid red light

    I get this issue when the battery in my key fob gets low and messes with the immobiliser (doesn't crank) 🤷‍♂️

    CLIO 1.2 16V ENGINE HELP

    You can just about see behind them, lots of room at the front as you probably know. Grab hold of the engine while off and cold (best grabbing something metal rather than the plastic inlet) and give it a shake and see if it moves. I have replaced my mounts recently and there is very little...

    CLIO 1.2 16V ENGINE HELP

    Is it affected by direction of travel or incline? How old are your engine mounts? If performance isn't affected it could be something hitting something it shouldn't. My heat shield on the firewall came loose and rattled on the back of the engine block, also my exhaust has rattled in its mount...

    New owner with lots of questions

    Source: https://cliosport.net/threads/how-to-remove-bar-in-boot-behind-rear-seats.300783/ Should have the metal Isofix bar underneath as @Stuflac suggests, you can see the two hooks exposed at the back of the boot in this image that I grabbed off the interwebs (Ignore the red):

    You already know where to get it, otherwise it's the waiting game to see if one comes up second hand. Last one I saw was on Ebay and was buy it now for £40 3-4 months ago fyi

    Looking for a part

    There will be a little inlet between the headlight and grill that lets cold air in and the battery tray keeps the heat away. It will sound better with a big foam filter but in the engine bay it will be sucking up hot air and will hurt performance, all 75 ponies of it 😂

    Looking for a part

    Maximum gainzzzzz!!! Some come up second hand on Ebay once in a blue moon but otherwise I haven't seen any other alternatives, there probably is a way to fabricate one with some effort but I could never be faffed to go that route. I settled for a Pipercross Foam filter but recently moved back...

    Are you asking how it's done? or the exact measurements?

    Wanting to transform Clio RS 182 cup into S1600 - Need help!!

    From what I have seen online it was either a kit or fabricated to spec https://racemarket.net/hill-climb-racing/hill-climb-racing-parts/chassis-hill/renault-clio-s1600-chassis-i2794

    ***How much is it worth?***

    Those rims are amazing on it IMO although not to everyones taste. As you say would get more for selling them separately I'm sure

    Raised section in 172 footwell.

    Trim is easy to remove but i believe the seats need to come out. As @Cub. suggested an image would be useful when you next get the opportunity to.

    Raised section in 172 footwell.

    Might be the carpet underlay, I think mine has a ridge that runs down either footwell. The carpet and underlay have been out before when the sunroof leaked many moons ago and I haven't had the chance to take it all out and see how well it was put back.

    Possible electrical issues on my Clio mk2

    Glad to hear you got it sorted and thank you for updating with a solution if anyone else runs into this!

    Possible electrical issues on my Clio mk2

    Sorry to hear things are not working out, do you know what the battery and alternator voltage are? Alternator should be around 14v if memory serves - Not sure about battery, might be able to find out that info from the manual later if it's in there. Do you know what your engine code is for the 1.6?

    TYRE ADVICE

    I have had a good time on Falken Ziex ZE310 Ecorun's. Good aquaplaning rating, good reviews - for me it's the sweet spot between performance and economy for a non-demanding car 🤷‍♂️
