Actual LoLz - It needs a good kicking on track

Did anything break?

Check the boot switch then. Sounds like a faulty contact

As above, check the gearbox and rear engine mounts followed by the gear selector first. They are very easy checks to do yourself and best of all they are free.

Re: ClioSport 172, Misfire, intermittent 3 cylinders. Coil pack connection? HELP PLEA If the coil isn't receiving instruction to fire then you won't get a spark, simple - so yes, a poor connection could cause this issue. Pull the plug and inspect it closely for signs of obvious...

Needs looking at really to say for sure. It could be a stretched cable but (more likely, if it's just suddenly happened) it could also be a snapped cable (there's two). Mick

Do you mean they unlock rather than physically self open? If so then this is normal on the Clio III - It's known as "Selective opening of doors" and it annoys the hell out of me on the Wife's '11 Clio. Mick

Sounds like a worn clutch Kingy720 but if you fancy bringing it in i'll gladly confirm/deny this for you by checking the rachet and cable for you. We're based in Long Eaton which is just off J25 of the M1 Mick www.DiamondMotors.co.uk

Sorry OP but what was the actual issue with regards to the pre-tensioners? Have a look at them yourself (Physically) - Have they been triggered? If so this will cause a permanent fault that cannot be removed. SRS is self diagnosing so if the problem had been resolved the lights would have...

Re: ClioSport 172, Misfire, intermittent 3 cylinders. Coil pack connection? HELP PLEA The buzzing is normal as is the three pins inside the four pin coil pack plug: 1 - Trigger 1/4 2 - Trigger 2/3 3 - Supply +12v The plug has been used on loads of Renaults since 2001 and the spare was for...

Try that method and see what happens. Please film it though especially the bit where the cams fly out so we can see the reaction on your face.

There *should* be a connector under the spoiler that allows the unit to be removed via a flying loom section.

I've owned worse lol

Just got the rest of the interior space to paint now.

At least you get it ;-) Cannot wait for Bedford now. New rubber also.

Took it out yestersay and it came back with a new addition: Track filth = Grinning

Not now I know there's a good chance you'd be lurking in the bushes lol Actually I might take our young'n one weekend as it looks better than Twycross

Dirty bleeder

They do it to refocus your attention on to them - Drive it more often and it won't hate you so much.

You've changed

Standard Renault drain mod on all models. Makes you wonder why they still put the buggers in at factory.

So all earth's are as close to 0 Ohms as wiring allows or have you just looked at them?

Check your eaths

My bad.... fire

Undo the two 13mm nuts then if stuck use a puller.

Leave it off... got the hint yet lol?

Not happening mate, my goal This year is to drop £20k off my mortgage as we want a really nice new house so that's more important to me now. Personally I can't trust the gearbox so it's got to come off and i have a replacement landing tomorroe but I think the sprung friction plate is damaged...

If I were in your situation I'd advise you speak to the garage. Don't be nasty, don't get drawn in to arguments or allow them to use technical words that you don't understand. Just stick to the facts and relay them clearly:- 1 - the car drove in fine with the exception of a faulty dephaser...

Pulled mine to bits looking for the lack of drive at Blyton recently. Dropped the box oil and it was clean/free of metal. Pulled the shafts and they're all intact. Checked the diff retaining bolts and they're all intact to so fek knows. All working again but I don't trust it. The clutch was...

We've got a 1.6 16v coming in on Thursday for what we call a "health check" because of a similar situation. This is a service I offer where by a customer brings a car to me and without saying anything about the car or any issues it has we pull it to pieces: Visual on tyres, brakes, exhausts...
