    Suspension load sensor

    Thinking about it, it must have abs to have the load compensator. Ive got a haynes manual and it just shows a pic of it and mentions it can be unhooked from the axle to allow removal of the axle. Doesnt say anything else under the braking or suspension sections.

    The story of the £3.5k fuel system bill...

    Do you think the problem was caused by some malfunction of the fuel system/pump or do you think it may have been dodgy diesel??

    what does that sensor do?

    Id take it to the garage and complain. Its prob a broken solonoid or they've made a mess of the cam timing procedure. Either way your car will be down on power.

    Also from around that time the 6 cd changer was optional so some dont have it.

    Has anyone got some.....

    What do you need a pic of??? The fill plug is on the front of the gearbox, its normally a black or white plastic screw that you can turn with your hands. The drain screw is right under the gearbox and looks similar to the engine oil sump plug.

    which battery

    I ordered one from here: Don't search by vehicle though, go on battery list and the battery type you need is 063. They list the 2.0l clio as being 065 but Ive heard they dont fit the 172/182s. http://www.performancebatteries.co.uk/ £38 and Came the next day.

    1.2 Authentique over 16v

    A little bit. You will find you dont need a big run up on steep hills so much. tbh if you want to feel any difference and want to spend a bit more try searching for a 1.4 16v or a dci80.

    What the hell is this?!

    As above its nothing to worry about and its nothing that needs to be fixed under warranty. You can easily unplug it and re - route it yourself but its not going to cause any damage how it is.

    rear disc help

    The bearings will be damaged re-using them. Now youve got the bare discs. Tap the old rings off the old ones carefully with a hammer and punch. Then push them onto the new ones. Then buy some bearings and pay a garage £5 to press them in for you.

    Losing Water

    It could be the radiator. After a drive leave it idling on the driveway for a few mins in the cold and see if you can see any steam coming out from anywhere.

    Im sure they are 99.9% all the same. Only the 1.2's had different drivers side mounts.

    my cars acceleration

    Take it to Renault or a decent garage, I dont think you can fix this problem yourself as these issues are hard to diagnose.

    You can reach it from under the car but I would have though it would be easier from the top.

    Speedo not working on Cup??

    I doubt Renault keep one on the shelf. Give me the vehicle type code and fabrication code for a cup and ill have a look for the part number. It will be something like "CB1M" and "k006626".

    Disabling the Rear Wiper

    You could let the car warm up for a couple of minutes while the rear demister melts the ice. Its doesnt take very long.

    fault with steering rack?

    Is the play definatly inside the rack? Move the steering left to right while car is on the on ground and get someone to see if the whole rack is moving. I had a problem with the rack mount bolts on the subframe not being tight enough.
