    Stall, running rough when idle

    That sounds suspiciously like cam timing. The aux belt isn't seated correctly either

    Exhaust gasket?

    Do you mean the cat to manifold or cat to centre? Cat to manifold kits are best purchased from Renault Wolverhampton in the trader section. Cat to centre section, use some instant silicone gasket.

    Cam belt change (pic)

    Sadly, being a specialist I've seen FAR too many **** ups with cambelts. I have probably put more right that have been done by previous garages than I have actually changed.

    Cam belt change (pic)

    If he had the knowledge he would have removed the bumper, not used tippex, not disconnected the air con, know space is tight etc. should I carry on?

    Cam belt change (pic)

    There are no marks on the clio. The 3 tools come to about £150. CHances are they haven't renewed the aux belt kit, so it'll spit that into the cambelt fairly soon.

    How long to change alternator?

    I'd certainly remove the bumper. It's so much easier.

    Cam belt change (pic)

    That's if it doesn't smash the inlet valves out after they've undone it and the cam has slipped

    Cam belt change (pic)

    But a hammer being used to put the cambelt on iirc.

    Cam belt change (pic)

    That'll have incorrect timing too. Enjoy you new Clio 145 :) They've disconnected the aircon?! What the actual f**k?!

    That looks very well made. Certainly worthy of a £180 price tag.

    Changing clutch, help needed!

    You don't need to drop the steering rack from the subframe. Just the subframe one side from the car.

    best way to replace dephaser on 172

    Having seen the tools he's bought, the caramac probably has more structural integrity.

    what garage to change the cambelt?

    You don't have to pay that to get to me. Only to go home ;)

    best way to replace dephaser on 172

    No you'd need to remove the dephaser and cam cover etc. And yes it's EXTREMELY poor practice to retension a belt.

    best way to replace dephaser on 172

    No. And any of those tools won't give the correct timing you need the GENUINE ones not the cheap s**t you've posted.
