    65HP DCI Build

    good base to start with, are you from Edinburgh or is that just where the car came from? engine wise, they are a fantastic little engine if you don't mess with them too much lol! For a DCi65 my recomendation would be a set of DCi 80/100 injectors (they are the same part for the 80/100), an...

    Martin's Clio DCi Van

    I found a Dynamique spoiler that's been hiding in my parents shed since 2005 when I upgraded mine to a colour coded 172 one on my first car!

    Martin's Clio DCi Van

    Pricing seems all over the place with them saw a second hand good condition one for £30 last month kicking myself for not picking it up. Finding good condition 100 ones are getting hard to find although I notice the campus dci70 used the same intercooler!

    All 197/200’s on the forum. Get in here!

    Loved my r27, especially with the akrapovic. Shame they are so expensive when they start needing bits fixed ?

    Martin's Clio DCi Van

    Will have a look, I like the Dacia one as it slots in perfectly where the 100 one mounts and uses the same pipework, I've got all the spare pipework from a 100 too!!

    Martin's Clio DCi Van

    Martin's Clio DCi Van

    Recently I bought a new house that's been a bit of a project and has a large garden that I find myself constantly doing runs to the dump and im fed up relying on using my mrs car or putting loads of sheets down in the back of the 220 Trophy to keep it clean, so I went on the lookout for a...

    Anyone know much about this model of Clio

    generally really good little cars, make sure both the key cards work if it has keyless entry, engine and gearboxes are very reliable in them, look for good service history, they like good quality oil being turbo charged so worth having it done if its not been serviced recently

    Quick questions about the Clio Mk4...?

    buy a late 2015 or newer for MediaNav Evolution its night and day better (evolution can be identified by the outside temperature reading on top right of the screen beside the clock) - it doesn't do traffic info either but the nav is better, the system is much more responsive and sound quality is...

    Renault clio 1998 1.2 8v overheating for no obvious reason?!

    if the fan coming on isnt bringing the temperature down I would say the issue is the efficiency of the radiator so either its got an air lock, sludge or possibly the fins are badly damaged and not enough air flow getting through. I would flush it and put fresh coolant in and bleed if the...

    220 Trophy

    5 days in and ive never taken a car out more "just for the sake of it" than I am doing with this, even at 17/18 in my 172 when I had unlimited free time! I am actually blown away with it! - never a truer statement to take what you read in magazines with a pinch of salt!

    220 Trophy

    tbh I think all my clio RS have done that, my 182 and 182 trophy definitely did, and the twingo RS did too!

    220 Trophy

    I might look into it once it's a bit further Into the warranty period, I've used rs tuning on some of my previous cars before I took it a good 30 minute test drive and tbh it felt like any other modern auto, I'd say it was only after 24hrs and 250 miles that it started to come into its own and...

    2009 Clio sport 182 Exhaust manifold replacement

    different front ends: 197: 200: are you changing the manifold or just the gasket? I assume the manifold is blowing from the flexi joint so needs a new full manifold (or yours repaired once removed)? its a pig of a job and a common issue.

    Another DCi 172 replica.....

    Looking good on the Twingo wheels, I would try and source the Dacia intercooler instead, that's what I had for my 80, it is a direct replacement for the dci 100 unit
