The microswitch broke off of mine. I've just wrapped a band of selotape around each way for now. Pikey, but it works a treat.

My grab handles have seen better days of late. Do the phase 1 items, particularly the 172 items fit the phase 2? Did any other models other than the 172 have the relevant window switches and mirror adjustment incorporated into the handle as i'll probably spray them silver myself.

So it knocks on the front of the subframe? The last time I adjusted it, I tilted it right back as I assumed this is the way that the engine would be thrown under acceleration. Is this more likely to accentuate knocking/issues?

Following on from this thread: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=366392, it now looks highly likely that it is an engine mount issue following 2 expert opinions. Q 1. Where is the 4th engine mount? I know of the one under the battery, Dog-bone and top left. Q 2. When adjusting...

You not fancy rolling your sleeves up Daniel-San? Wouldn't be too hard a job. Balls to these 'non-Renault' suggestions IMO. Too much aggro with mounts/drivetrain/electrics etc.

You da' man baby face.

Having done some research, could a worn bush give me these syptoms?

I changed my o/s driveshaft and it made no difference.

Sounds like i've got something similar. Mine only happens when you hit 5k, usually in 2nd. I'm stumped.

Good test, never tried that. Thanks.

Over hyped and under skilled. And that's just Ali....

If you were in the UK and he was offering £4500/£5000 in todays climate, I would say it was a 'Fair' swap. However, with what you've said about numbers of them on the road etc. i'm sure the only winner will be the other guy. If you're financially MUCH better off, do it. If not, screw it.

That's where i'm up to, guess work. Could a wheel bearing cause this sort of issue? When Undoing my o/s hub nut, I had to use a 400lb air gun as a 250 wouldn't suffice. I know the setting is 206/207 which I'm sure I did myself but the o/s was stupidly tight. Thanks for the input BTW Ditz.

£1.50 an inch at a place in Bradford if you fancy a drive or £1.00 without Lacquer.

I have to say, that sits perfectly. I didn't realise that the High Sports were so cheap. Are the Konig Sports worth £200 more?

Resonating/vibrating @ 5k+, mainly in 2nd. It's not a consant noise/vibration with the rev's, more like a bearing that can't keep pace. It can be felt though the pedals and bulkhead. I've changed the o/s driveshaft as the CV was fooked and the gearbox oil. There were only minute shards of...

As above. I'm trying to diagnose a fault and am almost out of ideas.

That has been suggested by a mates dad. It's strange how it only resonates/vibrates at very high revs, although the frequency is probably only sufficient at high rev's to affect it. I'll change the gearbox oil and tweak all of the visible bolts underneath.

A splitter should compliment the lines of the car/bumper. That doesn't I'm afraid.

No vibrations Fred, no drone, just the noise when giving it the beans. It's almost like a bearing that can't quite match the speed of the drive. The driveshaft has been changed matey.

Fred, you're a font of knowledge. Can you have quick look at my thread? I did think it may be the struts as the noise goes wild on bends but I have the washers fitted. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=365035

There's a leak from somehwhere and the only evident oil is on the join betwen the bell housing and the block. I was hoping a quick nip on each bolt may cure it? By the way Benjamin, I've been meaning to ask you for a while, have you swapped the pimp wagon for the Evo' in you profile? I'm...

As above, what size socket do I need for the external Torx bolts that secure the bell housing to the block?

I changed my O/S driveshaft today as I have a squeel/binding type/noise sensation when really giving it the beans. The CV gaiter was ruined so I assumed this dry joint was the issue. While I was under the car, I noticed that there was a leak around the gearbox where the bell housing mates to...

£1.00 per inch at a place in Bradford or £1.50 with lacquer. They only do Silver, Anthracite & White though from memory.

Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project Should still be interesting. Would these mounts fit a 172?

Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project Seconded? So you're putting the 172 engine in this?

He lies Jamie, he lies. Mine has them as well.
