Swapped from PS4 to PS5 on my Wife's motor, I thought the steering felt immediately sharper on turn in just at brisk road speeds! maybe a stiffer side wall? I've not driven the car hard to tell any difference other than that but will be swapping my 197 to them when the 4's are worn

It was the same dealership! Arnie stirling!

A lot less than my mate, i showed him your invoice you posted the other day and he nearly had a heart attack, straight on the phone to arnie clark customer services :ROFLMAO:

I notice this with my 1.2 16v, motorway cruising a little over the speed limit and its at almost 4000rpm but its happy and hardly audible!

yeah generally those ones will just read the engine ECU, and even then they can be a bit of a hit or a miss with what they read, usually handy for diagnosing and clearing basic stuff though, still a handy tool to have in the box!

only if its a decent one that's going to read the power steering module?

I have the base model one, its locked to my car in terms of uploading maps but i just needed to flash it once anyway! it does OBD diagnostics on all of my other cars (all Renault - not sure if it works on others?) I've added the ABS module Clio 2 and the Clio 3 one too so I can do abs...

If the control module detects an issue it can disable the power steering

bingo! :ROFLMAO:

More pics of her in the white dress and we will help

Sunroof has been leaking on my RSI, i had removed it, ran a nice tidy bead of sealant where the original seal was, didn't work so I've choose to just keep it out the rain for now :ROFLMAO: But now the one has started leaking on my daily smoker, this was not getting messed about with, full...

if the battery is confirmed good and no earth issues its likely the motor at fault, as above the rack has its own control module so get the codes read. EDIT: that above is assuming its a mk3 Clio which a 2008 could be either a mk2 or a mk3, if its a mk2 its likely the motor on its way out!

yeah so the issue I came across was, after dropping off a pupil my mum was jumping over to the drivers seat as she's tiny, just must have caught the stalk and flicked it onto full beam, not noticing as it was day time, get back to the house, into the driveway, stop, handbrake on, stop start...

yeah they are definitely done! mine weren't even like that, I did fully fix my steering issues in the end, I had put a new rack on it but didn't know the rack needed calibrated!!! that transformed it and its been like a new car since

Must depend on the uch software, start engine, once the stop start stops the engine with headlights off, flick the stalk to full beam and open door, doesn't chime. I only found out about it after 2 flat batteries on my old dears motor!

Not if it's activated after engine stop it doesn't.

sure she's not flicking the full beam on? this will cause them to stay on and drain the battery and very easy done!

fantastic i think 6 out of my 7 need screens lol

pics :ROFLMAO:

That's a press photo from a 197/200 your car will have the same mount though

I've got 7!

I remember getting my first new one in 2005, pulling my potato out my pocket and taking a picture of it i thought it was so cool!

I am fed up chasing perfect green type D coolant on all my cars, this has sealed it! I'm moving over to cheap trade red now! cheap as chips in 25 litres!

That's as much use as I can be to the thread :ROFLMAO:

remove the top engine stabiliser and see if it disappears (you will have a bit more engine movement, but its still fully secure) I've had so many knocks and bangs come from this even when it looks new and doesn't appear to have any excess play.

That's the electric mirror fuse, which also cuts power to the radio I believe, hence why your cd changer dies as its powered from there.

the mk3 isn't a bad car to do a clutch on as you get plenty access when everything's off - the dci 106 6 speed is a fairly big box which makes doing it on your own on the deck a bit of a s**t job! For me, just use a recommended well regarded garage if your worried, ask them for a good quality...
