Welcome :) What sort of plans do you have for it?

Bottom bar is to stop rattle, spring clips are there to retain the pads when pressing against the mating surface. Why don't you remove the 18mm bolts holding the caliper to the rear beam instead?

Also, how are you struggling with them bolts? Get a breaker bar and stand on the c**t if you have to

The problem is that you've let the pads get so b*****d low and the boot on the caliper piston is shagged so your piston is probably caked in s**t and sticking now too which will cause it to bind If you don't have the clips in then your rear pads will fall out and you'll have an even bigger headache

Hope this is sarcasm ? Just drop a new lump in it @Andysmithy1 but stick a belt kit on it before you stuff it in. Then you'll have at least 4 years of worry-free motoring

I don't get these people that say "Don't boost a 1*2 because it'll have loads of issues and it'll be s**t" even though they've never owned one, never driven one and probably never been passenger in one. Standard Clio's have s**t loads of issues, lightly modified ones have issues so it's no...

Bought most of my cars on Facebook. Got my Monaco for £400 and my Megane too. Bought a lot of cars for less than £100 (I even got one for free) and made some very tidy profits breaking them I love a bargain and most people on Facebook have zero f**king clue as to what they're actually selling!

£4355.25 spent in 17k/2 years for all those wondering what this bellpiece has spent?? "Previous owner bodged this, bodged that and bodged some more"... Then why purchase the f**king car?! Did he wear a blindfold buying the c**t!!!

I pay less than £500 for running and driving 172's ?? He's been had like a cheap toothless prostitute on a Wednesday night

Swivel bearings

Have you tried these out yet mate?

Only if it's done by a windowlicker?

Could be as it effects the way fuel is delivered etc etc

Breaker bar. I've got a 600mm one that doesn't struggle to budge anything, especially not with 19 stone on the c**t?

Bank 1 sensor 2 is post cat mate

She said she tried to be inconspicuous??

Best thing to do is heat up the torx bolt, grind 2 sides flat, leave it soaking in WD for a half an hour and work it out with some molegrips. Saves messing about and lots of swearing

I've used the Peugeot ones in the past as they're better and you can re-use them Here mate :)

I used some M8 bar and then just clamped everything together mate

I just put some threaded bar through mine and some large washers to pull them in and ran them down with the impact. My bearings are fine and it sat like this for 6 months-ish

Small update Did one of the most satisfying jobs you can possibly do to a Clio. I wet sanded and polished the headlights Before During After Makes a right bloody mess mind! Sat there hand sanding for about 30 mins each headlight with 800 grit as they were deeply oxidized. Then I moved...

Huawei and Supermicro are both run by dodgy turds who let Chinese officials walk into their factories and install components for bugging and data grabbing. Obama and Trump have been trying to get rid of Chinese components in the White House for years, probably for good reason. We had a massive...

Makes me feel bad for you? I'm paying £1000 for both my Meg 175 and Clio 172 all mods included at 22 with 4 YNCB?

That's what I like to hear. @CliosportCal is definitely up for it, I can already tell

Monaco is nearly ready for MOT finally, just a few minor bits to do. Anyone fancy for some time out soon as I'll need to kick it's head in a lot before it gets stuck on any sort of track! ?

Apart from the God awful sticker on the side

If you're gonna repair the rear quarter then find someone breaking a 5 door and just cut half the car off and take it home mate ? Reading this makes me miss my dCi and how much time I put into it

Either-either, my car will probably blow up after the first 4 laps anyway??

Realised I'd double booked a holiday with my family and will be travelling home on the Sunday so I'm a no show for this one :(
