Seen a set of old skool genuine Renault speedlines, I believe from a megane coupe MK1 advertised on eBay as 15" for £300, watched them for a few weeks as I had noticed in the closeup pics they were 16" and finally got an offer of £200 posted accepted! Thoughts?

renault subframes of that generation are crap, id want to remove it, wire wheel it to bits, prep it all and then something heavy duty to protect it, Daniel's raptor paint sounds a good shout! @aldo_87 has previous with these....

Bit of an odd one here. I'm converting an old ph1 1.2 8v over to 1.6 16v. -Both cars are mk2 PH1, but the 1.2 is a very early car, the 1.6 a very late car. -The 1.2 has a fuel return line, so has 3 lines running under the car (fuel, return and i assume tank vent from the carbon canister?) -...

Those ones! they were all the rage back in the day.

My Mrs has THESE , ironically for the opposite side that my daughter sits on, as she knows how to look after things, but generally other peoples kids don't.

Louder when turning right will be the left hand bearing as they get noisier when you load them up when they are starting to fail

That's where I would start, lock the engine at TDC and pull out the cam caps and see how the camshafts are sitting.

Timing out? did you use the proper tools and procedure for setting the cam timing?

Good value at £1

Good luck, let us know how you get on

I done this a few months ago assumed I had bent the wiper arm, got another, same problem, got a linkage then went to fit it and realised what I'd done!

If you want a motor that will bankrupt you, Clio 200 is that motor. f**k mk3s

it will also flash with a coil pack failure when it detects a destructive misfire

It's a shame as different forums disappear online, years of info goes with them

If it's an intermittent misfire that's a hard thing to see in a spark plug tester. They seem to be worse at part throttle when they start to fail and behave at full throttle. Could packs are VERY common for failing on these engines

The Clio van but yep, later kangoos had them too, again check the gear knob to identify as they all use that same gear knob for the hydraulic clutch models

must be the new poor mans K20

These pics are probably as old as the thread! Cars long since been scrapped! Struggled to give those wheels away, think I sold them for £150 in good condition with newish tyres

The DCI 100 had a hydraulic clutch and the later DCI 68's (mostly vans) had them too. If it has this shape gear knob its a cable clutch: And this shape is a Hydraulic clutch: Twingo mk2 with the 1.2 TCE (GT/Gordini) also uses the same gearbox and clutch so parts from that MAY fit and be...

Comedy how short it is on that scissor lift, Is that a Twingo 133 I spot?!

Agree with this, my old 80 had earned its value 10 times over in milage claims! They are still almost impossible to beat in terms of running costs, but now you have to be dedicated to the cause and willing to stick a pump and injectors on them, but tbh, once that's done they are good to go for...

I bought a rare little ph1 1.2 16v Sport - no history of the belts being done so done that today and then the most satisfying job on a clio.... A fresh coolant bottle! Ill grab a later style black coolant cap for it this week when I'm at the scrappy

Sure there is a guide on the above website for fixing a bricked unit too!

You will probably find the unit is still working and if you retry it with the same USB stick it will work!

It will be formatted correctly if it's got that far then crashed, they are just a little flakey, it runs WindowsCE, the later android ones are much more stable

format the USB and create a new one using the following website, it skips out the step of using Toolbox: https://www.gps-rlink.com/medianav/update-software-medianav/ Worth noting, your not updating the maps - only the Software on the unit its self.

As above, regardless of size I run 32F 30R and I used to use that as a starting point and play from there but now I CBA so just leave it 😂

for me 1.5 DCi or 1.2 TCE all the way!
