    2001 Renault Clio II RSi 1.6 16V (nickname Old Lady Grey), any other RSi owners out there?

    It was the same colour as yours mate but I re shelled it into a low miles shell as the RSI had 170k on it! Headlights were sanded using wet and dry then polished up

    Will Blurays and DVDs make a comeback.

    I've got a home cinema but don't own any blurays or DVD's, everything is ripped in 4k to a server, that way you have the best of both worlds, instant access, high quality! I wouldn't have the space to keep them all! nor could i be arsed trying to look them out and insert them! Streaming...

    197 - Steering fault error - loss of power steering

    In days gone by when you had a dodgy battery the first you knew about it was you tried to start it and it was dead or slow to start, these days its Electrical gremlins that usually put people down the rabbit hole of firing up the parts cannon

    What spoiler for my 2009 mk3 clio?

    i got a bootlid from a GT from the scrappy for £50, quite a bit of later mk3s had the GT spoiler fitted from the factory so if you keep your eye on ebay you will come across them now and again

    2017 clio 1.2 sooooo slow

    My old dear has a clio 4 with the 1.2 16v, its really slow but actually drives really nice! 140k miles on it too. I recon i could fit under the bonnet and get it closed and im fat. - They drive much nicer than the early 3 cylinder 900cc Junk. Check for boost leaks! they usually go quite well!

    Subscriptions... what you got!?

    not a single one!, well unless you consider this place 😂

    Non fault claim, what would you do?

    id be paying the £300 and going through your insurance unless its a beater car that you don't care about, you are their customer, they provide you with a service, much easier to have any issues sorted if the car isn't right.

    Cheap MS Office

    I've never used office since about 2010 since switching to OpenOffice then LibreOffice, and never had to use it in a professional setting, only at home, is there features or function that MS office has that means its not viable for people to use the open source packages?

    Missfire on Idle after timing belt replacement

    ^^ this. I would have absolutely no confidence that the process has been carried out correctly. And your miss fire on idle sounds like it's most likely timing related, I bet there's good old tipex involved here! Got a pic of the solenoid? I don't understand how it's snapped? Unless they mean...

    New Clio F1 owner needing general advice

    There was an optional extra aluminium gear knob from Renault, it was well over £100 from memory but was also used as standard on the Laguna GT, shift feels much nicer with it, that's what i run As above with the decals keep the originals if possible. From memory they didn't come with mats so...

    Scraping when turning steering

    Fairly easy, jack up, wheel off, shock off, spring compressors on, undo top not, replace bearings (id get a kit with the rubber doughnut etc too) and refit all, 10-15 mins a side

    Scraping when turning steering

    that to me sounds like the suspension top bearing is seized and that noise is the rubber on the body, when it makes the noise does the steering want to turn back the opposite way as you let go?

    182 rear brake pipes NLA, any other Renaults make a good substitute?

    Absolutely no issues with mine, I'm less concerned about the sub 5 year old braided rear lines than I am the rest of the 25yr old system that I can't inspect. Just make your own ones, or get some better condition ones from a scrappy If you can find some, nothing odd the shelf will fit without...
