and the rear. painted the bits of metal that show where the bench fits in black to cover up the scratched finish. also steam cleaned the carpet while the car was gutted!
next, tho i really intended to get the skirts sorted ASAP, i ended up buying some sport seats really cheap off a member on here via ebay, and treking 200 odd miles to shove em in the back of my clio! these pics still have the hoover lines in em lol!
right, been slack with the posts, had a few festivals and loads of work, but i've plenty of time off now b4 uni starts and i've got lots to do!
first changed made a few weeks back was to borrow some 15"s off a mate as my 17"s were so bald i could see the wire :S, and it handled sooo much...
that is really mint. and yea, prob just no sun roof, my 1.4 si has AC and no sunroof. i'd love to know how he got the climate control all working! top marks. :D
actually, checking the thread again, http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=310837&highlight=engine+relay
it'd be the black one that was bust oops! the yellow i'm guessin isn't part of the emergency fan program when you remove the sensor, it must be on slow all the time. maybe i'll...
found a little diagram on a thread on here, :D, showing the big yellow relay is for the slower fan speed and one of the black ones for the fast. after removing each, while the engine's running, with the sensor unplugged so the fan runs, the yellow does naf all and the removing the black makes...
i've not looked at the clio's, but i know my focus' was easy to replace, 90 quid from the dealer. they can be adjusted, you'd want a haynes or something to tell you how, and make them more responsive (or mess it all up lol!) tho it could be something wrong with the box and that's a lot more...
hi guys, i'm havin problems with my mk2 ph1 overheating. i've bought a new temp sensor from renault, and that didn't solve it, there's no air in the coolant system, the fan runs when u unplug the sensor, and the rad pipes get hot, so i'm assuming the thermostat's ok. there's no warning lights or...
i need a new coolant temp sensor, checked mine which says 77 00 11 38 67 on it. is this the part number? phoned renault, they didn't know, even after giving my reg he said "there's a few, is it the black one?!" then said it prob was and was £21 plus VAT! anywhere else cheaper i can get this...
mines lowered 40/60 on 17's and it scrubs horribly in carparks, ppl stare on full lock LOL! also handles awful in comparison, tbh gonna get some 16's with the student loan. u may get away with a 40 drop. looks mint if your into big wheels tho ;)
cheers guys :D
it does have ph2 rear lights btw, there's no photos of the rear cos i'm ashamed of the gash rear bumper that still has the old exhaust cut-out LOL!
skirts r coming! though as said, got far too tempted by ebay bargains and i'll have shots of my new 172 interior and springs (it's 2 low and hard!). gotta save the cash for leeds and bloodstock fests too. i knew the spoiler would be hit or miss, but it helps it stand out in the crowd without...
could be interested..
i'm really looking for a 182 bumper with the cut outs already for the exhaust. i've my heart set on the k-tec lookalike and from watching them they can go for half what an "intact" 172/182 rear goes for. what's yours?
i have just spent most of this months wages on a sports...
it's probably the pump then. you should hear it whine when use the washers, if not, dead. The scuttle comes off easy, just look at the side, there's a little plastic screw like clip wher it meets the car. i found you could bend the scuttle trim up to show the bottle and youll see the small pump...
just do a search for clio pencil coil, plenty on ebay, check these maybe http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1-YEAR-WARRANTY-4-IGNITION-PENCIL-COILS-FOR-RENAULT_W0QQitemZ120287518826QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item120287518826&_trksid=p3286.m14.l1318
i got a second hand set for a tenner worked fine!
:)
good point. on the subject, does the radiator have a bleed nipple on it? i saw a thread where some1 said it did, but then the dude asking couldn't find it?
universal ones suck. get clio specific and longer bolts. most people who've tried using generic spacers will tell you your wheel will wobble and it'll eat your tyres. i went through a pair in under 1000 miles!! plus get longer bolts, or you won't have enough thread to correctly hold on the...
as above! i've seen a thread saying front right of the block on a 182, is it the same on my little ph1 1.4? and aditionally, where can you bleed the system from?
cheers guys! :)
also finally finished spraying my spoiler and got some shots..
i think it's relatively subtle, i don't want a garish pimp my ride effort (anymore lol!) u can also see form the side shot how badly in need of skirts i am :(
here's what i did over the past few days. :D
clocks were an ebay bargain, 99p! to make them work i've used my PCB, then added the dials and plastic, cutting out the centre and side status lights and using them as the newer ones don't match. u can see the colour variation. was gonna swap the...
it may sound obvious, but have you checked behind the clock and radio to see if they're actually plugged in there? if all the connections are sound you may have to start removing panels and tracing wires :S
as per my post yesterday, http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=343810
my engine warning light is on, and possibly been on for 3 years! my car had some problems charging the battery when i bought it carcraft fixed and said was the earth leads, but who knows. it failed to start for a...
yea, mine was similar. i got it serviced 500 miles after purchase at the pug garage as it was cheap as chips, the told me it had no coolant, just water, even tho it shud have had it's 36k service a k b4 i bought it!!
just have, i'm at the garage now, ther's nowt on it. if the light came on a long time ago would it need reseting by renault even if the fault was physically corrected? yea, i don't think i'm even gona waste my time with a letter tbh. :(
i might try, just to vent my anger, but it's 3 years since i bought it, i can't prove it, but it's so annoying. i had to take the car back 3 times, it needed a new battery and all new earths, a wing replacing for a crack, there were no front speakers, plus a few more niggles. i wish i had seen...
