hi blue, mine is exactly the same tbh on my mk2 ph2, only time ive seen it on is when the tank is near enuf empty and ive been parked on a hill for a while. i just tend to fill up wen i have around a quater of a tank left. it does the car no good to run on the crap thats accumulated at the...
this the same for a 1.2? would mind one myself tbh..purely for the cosmetic factor of having disks all round..plus disks are easier 2 change than shoes :)
well this year my insurance on my 1.2 mk2 ph2 is £700..next year with a years no claims i can be insured on a 182 for £1200 with 3 yrs experiance and a yrs no claims. hehe
im sooooo getting 1 lol
i dont have any no claims atm.
i drove my mums car for around 11months whilst in full time education, and now im insured n on my step dads name (but my car)....which i know aint legit..so thats why im biting the bullet and going for my own policy with parents as 2nd/3rd drivers to reduce the...
Right, my insurance is due for renewal on 8th june at which point i will have been driving 1 yr 11months, i have had a quote from admiral with both parents for £1069.
if i wait a month until ive been driving 2 years i will have to pay £762 (inc mods on both quotes.)
now thats a saving of...

hi, just about to change my disks, pads and bleed to the brakes. could anyone tell me is it just the front callipers you have to bleed or do you have to do anything to the rear drums? (mk2 ph2 1.2 16v) ta russ
cheers chris, what kind of heads are on the screws as i cant remember of the top of my head but sure they looked like an allen key fitment last time i had the wheel of?

i think clio mark 1s use solid disks which are only £16.99 a piece, were as mk2 ph2 uses vented disks which are dearer. if u need the part codes daz drop me a pm or add me on msn and ill dig them out for you (halfords books dont list alot of stuff for mk2 clios....the brake pads are actually the...
hey daz, ive just been out and bought all the kit to put new disks and pads on my 1.2 16v (would imagine the same parts)
All from halfrauds -
2xBrake Disks - £30 a piece so £60
Brake pads (may as well do them while your down there) £17.99 for ferodo which inc caliper bolts or £15 for halfords...
ahh right, cheers mate, didnt fit it last time i changed the pads but was just curious as to what they were. lol
anyone know about the disks etc i mentioned above? im keen to get them all ordered :)
right, so just to clarify as the posts are getting a little blurry lol...
brembo max disks and a set of new ferodo pads....will braking be improved over standard disks and pads? also opinions on the greenstuff pads below? :)
also ive just been looking at some pads.... could anyone tell me what...
as title, my disks are shafted and in need of replacement, i changed the pads approx 4k ago, but going to change them again now just to make sure i get the best braking performance i can from a standard setup again. so if anyone could take the time to write me a quick guide or link me, it would...
its done 43k. not sure if the oils ever been changed tbh...theres a stamp in the book but the plugs and air filter hadnt been changed when i checked...so sceptical on the oil now.
looking at doing an oil change myself over the next couple of days and want to flush the engine thru. should engine flush be put in with the old oil let the engine idle for a bit and then drain? or drain and just pour the engine flush in the filler cap and let it run out through the sump?
