Little update. With the engine running I unplugged individual ht leads from the coil, no change when removing 1, slight change with 2, definate change when pulling 3 and 4, car wanted to die. So from that I'm guessing the coilpack or leads are goosed? Sadly my quickly dispatched code autel code...
Drove it tonight. Pulled on my drive and the revs shot up to 3k rpm and the electrical warning light (yellow with zig zag) came on. Throttle made no difference at all. Turned the car off and back on and it idled as before, lumpy but at normal speed.
Bloody heap of junk!!!
Thank you for your suggestions. It drives and runs (doesn't stall) but when pulling away often it seems bogged down and wants to cut out (but doesn't) and when driving you can feel it missing and pulling back slightly. It's not spluttering as such, just not stable like it should be. (I know...
Thank you. I'll get one ordered now. Do you have a link to the one you bought?
I'll sort the blow out asap and get the code reader and go from there.
Fingers crossed it's not a valve gone.
After the cat at the joint with the exhaust the blow is.
There are no lights on the dash though, so doubt codes would show up? Would it be worth trying a coilpack?
Hi all.
The shed I've just bought has got a misfire, which is not setting off the eml (it is working, checked at ignition turn on)
I was looking yesterday and noticed the exhaust has a leak at cat joint and also at back box joint (pattern exhaust)
I checked all leads were on the coil right and...
I know it's a small amount but you could take it off using a jigsaw or some other tool I cant think of name wise. I ran a 5 digit plate cut down with a jigsaw to match the space between letters and edge to a regular plate and never had problems with it.
I had this when I had my 172 with a sensor fault, fault in that some idiot had managed to somehow snap the cable pretty much clear out of the head. I drove it like this for a while and only ever had one scary moment as i just drove a little more sensible (yes it was hard!! Lol) My issue was the...
Great figures there. How does that affect the warranty being as it's still covered under one? Will rstuning warrant the engine as it's their map?
Get some videos up, would love to hear the induction noise.
I was selling a MacBook on gumtree the other day. And someone asked if they could pay by Paypal. I said I'd rather keep it to local buyers so he then said about bank transfer. But that's when it went weird. He wanted it posted out right away and would send me proof of the payment leaving his...
I know, I was only messing. If I had the ability, knowledge, time, space etc I'd do the same! You certainly know your way around a Clio, something I wish I did.
Looking forward to he updates bud. On that note, does this mean you'll be stopping buying cheap clio's to rip apart? Because if you do I might be actually able to find one!!!
I quite like that. It doesn't suggest what the engine could be though unless I missed it? Is the 2ltr turbo going to be replaced with a smaller turbo engine like most hot hatches now?
Very nice mate. Love these and especially in ly!!
Can you post a picture of the lights in the dark please? Really intrigued at how they look as they look great in the pics you've posted.
