All pulleys should be loose. Lock the crank at tdc and the cams on the gearbox side using the tool so the engine is fully locked Loosen cam pulleys and crank bolt and remove tensioner. Replace belt making sure the markings on camshaft pulleys are aligned Tension belt Turn over the belt thru 6...

buzzing from the throttle body is perfectly normal, it will stop about 30 seconds or so after the car is shut down. you sure the cam timing is spot on? floating pulleys so belt tensioned with the pulleys loose etc as per the workshop manual?

when I was 17 I bashed the internals out my cat, cut out the insides of my airbox to improve air flow and fitted a panel filter and cat back exhaust, it made 80 something bhp at a rolling road day - used to go quite well for what it was! especially with all the weight stripped out it and an...

awwww your making me blush

not bad ill keep an eye out for more stock coming in, the issue with getting them from eBay and amazon is its littered with fakes!

I remember a while back there was somewhere everyone was getting genuine Magneti Marelli injectors from for a reasonable price. Is this still the case? Just checked autodoc and £220 for 4 currently. I see you can get a set of 4 generic ones for around £100 mark but unless there is any known...

I have noticed its very strange at 1080p, on my Projector downstairs i play at 4k Ultra and it looks visually stunning, on my workstation I play at 1920x1200 Ultra as that's the native res of the monitor and it looks 10 years older. while other games look the same just obviously at a lower...

I've got the BTT one on my car as its powder coated so hopefully last longer but its not cheap! - on one i done for someone i just bought the cheapest one on ebay like this...

Bad advice. I've seen the way he drives, he's got a heavy right foot. He'll blow himself to pieces...

Tell you something, the interior on the 5 looks brilliant, when you first jump in it its a massive step up in quality..... My wife done 140k in a Clio 4 and the interior used to clean up like new, I've done loads of miles in mk2 and mk3 Clio's with no issues... She's done 40k in a MK5 and its...

I had your dilemma! - Problem solved, get the spanners out!

id imagine if doing it on a ramp you may be able to get access under the car without removing the starter? depends how low the starter is mounted

yeah thats the ones!

yeah looks to me like that has a front starter where the Clio 2 has a rear starter under the exhaust manifold. so yes it will be under your starter

If its the same as the MK2 with the K4J/K4M then its on the front of the engine circled here: remove the bolt and insert the locking pin in there

Mrs booked a peasant weekend in a caravan for her and the wee one as I couldn't get time off work, but boosted up for the Sunday night. Any excuse for a run in this thing 😂 Old skool Vs the new skool!

that is everything I hate about the modern world.

I get everything's being pushed towards EV/hybrid but Renault don't offer a single petrol powered car anymore? Surely the demand isn't that low already?!!

Here's one for the gurus, it's got me stumped!! Car is a 2001 1.2 16v sport, it's developed a new noise, it sounds like a very bad wheel bearing but it only does it at 4300rpm! Sounds perfect under that and disappears around 4500rpm. Now before everyone thinks I'm a mad chav ragging about a...

The cup pack came with: Red callipers Anthracite wheels over silver (assuming the speedline option wasn't ticked) Lower and stiffer suspension Quicker steering rack The non cup car, for me, is actually the better car on a Scottish back road!

Looks good I like it colour coded., what engine is it running? Here's mine! White friends 😂

my 200 cup done it, and my 197 r27 done it, but my current 197 doesn't! I've just done a clutch and slave cylinder on it with all genuine parts, the ONLY thing aftermarket is a braided clutch line rather than the old factory one!

The very first search result in Google gives this...

I've done about 5 miles in mine in the last 2 years, Wish I had the space to tuck it away but it will probably be up for sale soon!

Anyone still own it? Not seen a thing about it for years

That's not a diagnostic! That's an issue!

I've been making a conscious effort to get it out and use it on my days off and really been enjoying it! Took it a blast today with Mini Me as we had seen the Emirates a380 flying over head a few times on its way into Glasgow so we went to try and find a high vantage point! Although we have...

Get a proper diagnostic carried out instead of just pointing the parts cannon in its direction

Yes very common for the synchros on 3rd and 4th gear to fail over time. Requires a gearbox strip down and synchro replacement

needs a proper diagnostic to find out what's up with it, common issues on the 1.2 causing a missifre would be coil pack, spark plugs, injectors, upstream lambda
