i though the pup was sounding raspier than normal at the weekend, so i did a little test last night. The results of which follow: i have the 4k rev rattle (it seems worse as the revs drop down past 4k, rather than revving up to it). To be honest, its not that bad, so here are my thoughts: 1) i...

i know what thumb screws to tighten when i need something done pronto... ;) g

first thing, get your facts sorted and understand what laws are supporting your case. Speak to the CAB. Once thats done, write to reno using facts - dont let the letter get emotive, keeping it factual and outline how you want them to remedy your problem. Give them seven days to reply and send...

my renos not keen on extreme temperatures. In the harsh winter, most of the trim started to buzz, zing and rattle, and now the windscreen trim strip has expanded so much in the sun that its dislodged, and has split (its now held on with some insulation tape). Then, yesterday my exhaust started...

while youre right Stromba, but they also have something called common sense. Sadly, in most cases, its not proportional to the amount of testosterone they have, which is why they find it easier to exercise their right foot more often than their brain. g

I agree - its not a matter of excluding non-members from posting, its a matter for prompt action by the moderators to boot the troubles makers out (which they did very swiftly in Sputniks case) g

maybe the dont give the right ride comfort or maybe it comes down to cost - perhaps a macpherson (sp) struts at the front are cheaper do engineer? g

i think the R5T2 had torsion bars at the front, as did the 911 and me GTV. g

lol, ok ok, was just teasing :D - guess that when you arrive, you can spend that extra time saved washing off the sweat before us air-conned boys arrive 0.3secs later! :) g

...and of course, MUCH HOTTER INSIDE ON A HOT DAY. Ahem. g

Felica, of course! g

unless Im wrong (likely) I dont think it was his daughter. I think it was a cousin in the family...not his daughter. If Im wrong, sorry! g

you hadnt just had an argument with him, had you? ;) g

cheers boss, I opended it anyway. :o :D g

...and Trevors a girls name is it? You youngsters - I cant keep up with you! :D g

lol, a most excellent plan, mister! :D g

Oh, and Regata. It means Old Bag, so that counts as a girls name (JOKE) g

Ive no idea who youre talking about mate. :confused: How old is this Porsche chick then? g

Lee, I dont think Porsches girls name, but Portia is. I fink, anyway ;) g

just checked - only shows one with 172bhp. g

if reno has a belgian website, can we see if two clio 172 are offered with different outputs? g

dont get one sourced from Cyprus. Too much hassle with reno as its not a EU car if anything goes wrong (i think they have 15" wheels, not 16", too) g

mines does the same! I think it might be something to do with the clutch/cable - it seems to happen as youre releasing the clutch, almost sounds like a yawning noise from front left of the bulkhead. I do not think its the brakes - it happens once after every fresh start when you release the...

FactaCliomundo! g

coz thats the problem, isnt it - if you go all technical on them ("its a RenaultSport Clio 172 2.0 16v) they think your sum sad dumb ass. Or, if you say Clio, they (as was said above) they say my nan has one. That said, what is quite cool, is if you say oh, its just a Clio and then they see...

if someone asks what you drive, what do you say? if theyre car nuts, i say Clio Sport, the two litre one. If theyre not into cars, i say oh, just a little Clio. how do you respond to that question? g

mine wobble too, in the kind of way we have come to associate with legendary French build quality... :D g

lol! g

the previous generation S-Class had LHD wipers, too. I must say, Im still baffled by why we must have LHD wipers. I fully accept your point that our LHD wipers have that special bit that pushes them into the corner...is this cheaper to engineer than flipping the wipers over to the correct...
