    Clio dodgy Engine Mounts?

    probably the lower gearbox mount, their crap. i replaced mine with a 172 twisted style mount with uprated Powerflex polly bushes from K-Tec, its one of the best mods ive ever done, the gearstick doesnt jump about anymore when you come on and off the accelerator, infact its solid. moving slowly...

    Thinking about getting a DCi clio.

    65 dosnt have an intercooler, 80 and 100 do. 100 has a different turbo, think the 65 and 80 have the same turbo. think you need bigger injectors to go past 120bhp i heard? doesnt the 100 have the 6 speed megane box or am i talking pish?

    why does my car handle like crap?

    make sure the tyres are the same condition on opposite sides, front and back. get the tracking checked check dampers & bushes check tyre pressures and as john said, remember the roads are terrible at this time of year

    snapped engine (dogbone) mount

    Powerflex bushes make a massive difference!! i always said if i get another clio, only mods ill be doing is suspension and powerflex bushes in the mount. the gearstick has no movement at all in it, it feels much tighter and better to drive

    snapped engine (dogbone) mount

    only time ive seen one snap is when my driveshaft went causing the gearbox to lock up and snapping the mount. car needed a new gearbox, driveshaft, mount, cat/downpipe. as for replacing it its easy, use a socket and a hammer to get the old bushes out, put the new powerflex polly ones in...
