    Ring other dealerships. However does you car also need the AUX belt chnaging or brkaes bleeding etc as they all push the bill up.

    best company!

    220hp won't be cheap. Why not just go for individual throttle bodies (£3.5k) cams and head work thats about 225hp plus great noise and powers not just top endy.

    My car is leaking!

    Nothing stops them rattling for definate. There kits to rebuilt the sunroof but nothings carenteed. There a few different fixes but even a full rebuilt on mine (the last hope) still hasn't fixed it.

    172 Problems - Will it affect MOT?

    Map sensors can fail there on the intake plebham (the bit with Renault sport written on) on the drivers side of the big bit not the intake runner on the passenger side as thats the air temp one. Not cheap to replace £60 or so I think. BenR or a breakers yard might be your best bet...

    Cup Pack Suspension?

    Nope, it should do but some owners opted to have the normal wheels fitted to there cars and vice versa so you need to check if you realy want ti. The distance between the center of the two bolts on the front shock is 60mm on a Cuped and 54 on none CUped car.

    Nope if your doing a conversion its only a few more bolts the drivshafst would be off anywhay if your doing a conversion so the only differences are the stearing rack ends, wishbones and the ant rolll bar.

    engine change

    Fire away only way we ever learn isn't it. You'll get a huge increase in power at low revs the 2.0 great you get loads of low end pull. Power doesn't kick like a Valver does no need to rev it. Nope Williams uspension is different at the fornt wider they use renualt 19 bits and a few other...

    Heater Problems

    172 full fat with climate but its had its aircon removed well partially. Pumps condensor etc are all out not sure on the other bits I'd guess there still there.

    coilovers

    Its illegal just so you know.
  19. E

    Heater Problems

    Heating systems yep are the same on them all from memory. Check the resister pack but being as your cars got the aircon removed I'm not sure what has happened the aircon might be having a right trouble with it. Also check the relay. Temperature fan shouldn't be an issue

    What suspension do you all recommend!

    £400 or so for the shafts, wishbones, ARB you should idealy use the proper double skined subframe but few do. Thats new prices second hand can get them cheaper. It makes a difference though yep. Williams Clio are trying to get a group buy going I belive. The'll get them for £330 direct with a...

    urgent question...ahhh

    Sounds like the sensors damaged could be when they changed the rack depends how they did it. Thats sensor been known to fail before though. Second hand froma breakers yard for undamed rack will be cheaper. Bit of a pain to fit but nothing shocking least the'll be no rust where the rack and the...

    Aux belt?!?!

    Nope there no fan belt on Clios since there not like that people often refere to the AUX belt which power the alternator PAS coolent pump air con etc. There the main belt which powers the coolent pump (on some modesl) and turns the cams and thats it. All Clios use electric fans
