    Clio Dynamique 04, Lights issue...

    If you want to be sure do what i said, take them to an MOT place and get them to check alignment, there is nothing in the MOT about having the bulbs too bright, and like was said you'll struggle to get normal bulbs brighter then xneons(?) anyways

    Steering feels heavier, sometimes...

    Are you going at the same speed, there will be more resistance when traveling slower then when faster. Check the PAS fluid level, and does the pump make any noises, esp when turning either left or right? From what you ahve described sounds like your rack might be on the way out....around...

    Clio 16V **Help**please

    Clean ISCV and check engine earths, in particular the gearbox one. Odd that it only does ti sometimes, usually they do it all the time, presume the revs drop right down when the clutch is put in, and then sometimes it stalls it? If so its a very common problem

    Stripped screw head on thermostat :(

    If you can get a dremel or similar in tehre and cut a slot accross teh head and use a slotted screw driver. Hammer a smaller socket over teh head if you can. Machine mart sell reverse glute sockets designed to grip a rounded off nut (or i this case rounded head bolt) and undo it
