I've got some Fox multispoke alloys where the center of the spokes bend outwards, I'm always rubbing them against the kerb I keep forgetting lol as with my old steelies I used to just ram it now I end up parking in like the middle of the road to save kerbing.

Has anyone ever had one completly go on them, mine squeeks if i change from 1st to 4th (not on purpose) or catch the throttle during gearchange or pull off sharply. All my old Clio's done it so I'm not really fussed about it just can't be doing with the hassle of changing it, should it colapise...

It's no Cup but I love her :)

The positive feedback you've recieved will help you no ends. Your case being the buyer should have checked it over before leaving feedback stating he's happy with it. Of course he probably did and found nothing wrong with it - until he leaves it to the pikey round the corner to fit it for a score.

Cant remember myself either mate, will take another look tommorow, got to get it out somehow as it looks ugly at the moment. I'm scared I'll crack the bumper or I'd have had the thing out in a couple of mins. Come to think of it; it'd be so much eaiser with the bumper off but thats a mission on...

Tried that, well I've had the splash guard off to access the rear of the fog but theres literally nothing to grip to, all the back end of the bolt, which i think was a metal washer type bolt thingy (now look you've made me go all technical on you) has pretty much broken and I'm pretty stumped as...

Probably best of trying some dedicated renault breakers, I'm sure some members here can point you to one or do a search I always see links for them.

Must be the pic polar, as the sills like that too.

Cheers matey, got the top torx screw out the bottom one is being a b**ch, it's just turning but not undoing. Can't get anything on the otherside of it either or the driver just slips, think my best best would to be drill the screw out? So pissed off as all I need to finish off the car is a new...

Looks like a mission, no retaining screws, bumper off job? GSF charged me £27 for a new one, doesn't even come with a bulb!

Was giving me car a clean today and realized just how bad my rear alloy is kerbed. I was thinking is it possible to get a touch up pen for it, it's not a special color as you can see in the pic just a standard alloy. They're nothing special so I don't really want to pay for it to be...

Managed to pick up some Phillips Bluevision main beems from my local maplins for a fiver, well pleased with them, got rid of the dull yellow light for perfect white so much better down dark roads as well as looking nice.

Alright lol she hit me, but It's pretty much a closed case in my eyes. I was in her lane at the time in mid turn, so she went into the side of me because I was obstucting her. I did argue she was speeding and came out of no where. I also have a witness who saw the impact and said she was...

I'm insured on two cars now. Heres the story. In Oct 2005 I crashed my Clio 1.2, I was turning into my work carpark when I hit a women coming the other way, I was in mid turn just about to enter my car park she hit me rear passengers door. Anyway, I've not heard back from my Insurance...

Is it just the weight element, I'm thinking power drain? I've made up for the weight easily, dropped the steels, no spare tyre, dropped a few pounds myself too.

Does a sub and amp waste? I have my system on all the time I'm in the car, I'd like to leave it off to see a diffrence in MPG but I dont want to lol. I was wondering does it affect my mpg, it's nothing special 1000w jbl sub which never puts out a 1000w and a 400w jbl amp and a phoenix gold amp...

Thanks Elliot, I'm not really up on the technical side of things so if I was to add a IK would I have to adjust the needles or will it do it automatically?

Are the 1996 1.4 RT models injected, pages with history of the Clio's on say all the Clio's are injected now from 1992 on I think, but some places say they're carbed?

Yeah great tip, I done that on my old RT and should have said, if the roof has been leaking first WD40 it at the back and the end where the wires go into it before wrapping it on a sandwich bag. WD40'ing it actually improved it's range for me; either mines buggered or they are not very...

Do what my mate done when he fitted cossy alloys on his Fiesta, hammer the f*****s out. Seriously took a hammer to it I couldn't believe it bits of plastic everywhere, they don't rub anymore though. But if you look under the bonnet which is covered in crap now, you can see the wheels and...

I've got to do this at the weekend too, as I literally get scared when cornering I look up and wait for the heavens to open, or in my case the sunroof button to dump a load of water over me. I'm pretty sure you need to seal the very edge of the sunroof and thats what Fatty means, the edge...

Legally it doesn't help but he is correct.

Sweet cheers mate I jacked the rear using the red dot furthest to the left. Old wheels were 155 and new ones are 195. The steering wheel was already slightly off to the right yeah, about 12:30 to go forward but now I've put the new wheels on it's gone off even more to about 1:30 position to...

I wonder if I could have bent something when I jacked the rears up, hmm will have to have a look on a warmer day.

front was the sills (the strong part, done it on my old car and it bent) and rear was the suspension mount bush iirc.

Mine only does it upto 30, anything over would be dangerous as you dont know how much you have to slow down by when going past a speed camera.

Okey doke cheers will do, is there any other reason why it should be out, it was near spot on when i took the steels off. Like I say the only logical reason I can think of is the tyre sizing has changed.

lol ive had three mk1's they all done/do it.

I've recently fitted some new 15" alloys to replace my 13" steels. When I say recently I mean me and a mate armed with a trolly jack at 12:30am. Look great, amazing how wheels can transform the look of a car you relise why people spend so much on them now. Only prob is, my steering wheel...
