Awesome, if there was ever a time for a Trophy then that it is!
This was mine, 7 years ago, the morning after my bird told me she was pregnant and it felt like she had ruined my life! - It took all my worries away for a few hours! - The car is long gone and my not so little 7 year old turned...
I've never heard a sound bar I've thought sounded decent, but I suppose that's the point of them, compromised, neat and tidy.
Amp and speakers all day for me.
In the middle of my first F4R Cambelt, and I'm positive I read someone on here a while back (@Brigsy comes to mind?!) saying they go OVER the torque setting for the dephaser and exhaust cam nuts. I've had a search and cant find anything so I'm now doubting myself :ROFLMAO:
Been ticking away at this when I get time between other jobs!
5hrs from starting to having the engine and box out I was quite happy with!
Slave cylinder was leaking which was the cause of the loss of clutch pedal as expected, looks like its never had a clutch in its 80k miles and wasnt far...
to me it sounds exactly like the fuel rail guard rattle, and the fact its only happening at idle and stopping when the AC raises the idle, to me points to that!
Have you confirmed its definitely the AC compressor? does the noise come and go with the activation of the AC? As above just stick a second hand AC compressor on it.
Make sure the fuel rail guard is tight as these can also cause a metallic rattle when they are loose
don't worry about the reg being wrong. That just needs a good warm up before test, surprized they didn't, We would have failed that, took it on a road test to warm it up and retested and passed.
You won't find anything off the shelf, need to make one.
Need to ask yourself if it's worth causing yourself MOT grief and an engine management light for not really any benefit though....
Anyone done anything aftermarket with the sound deadening at the rear of the engine bay that covers the brake lines etc? mine is falling to bits and I've got the engine out currently. I've sent an enquiry to RPD to see if its still available and cost but was interested to see if anyone has done...
I've had a 200 box with the shorter 1-3rd gear ratios for this for a while with new synchro's to fit and a new clutch to fit at the time but never got round to it until my Mrs used it for ONE DAY and managed to break it!!!!! in her defence the slave cylinder failed and she lost the clutch pedal...
I'm trying to identify if this is a genuine Clio 200 box, it has the following code which points towards a diesel box:
But then it also has this sticker peeling off which points towards a 200 box:

Mine hasn't failed but I didn't have a fitting kit so temporarily bolted it solid together with nuts and bolts (removing the flex of the springs) and 2x years later ive never went back to fix it and its spot on! its never caused any excess wear on the exhaust mounts etc
I know that's not a...
Boring update, not much been happening with it, I done a new AC condenser as it was leaking and done a re gas, so the AC works as it should.
Was at the scrappys today getting some bits for my mk2s and picked up a pair of good condition ph2 rear lights!
