As per title; does redex have a use by date? Found some of my dads redex thats been sat in the garage for god knows how long....10 years? Would you still run it?

Hi guys Problem with my near-side (passenger side) rear door (5dr car) being that it won't open from the outside but works fine from the interior handle. Have opened it up and had a fiddle and seems as though the metal rod that is attached to the exterior handle does not stay in the hole of...

Funny noise coming from my engine, mainly on a cold start. Would start it up, then after a minute or so starts making this noise. Normally stops when warmed up but not always! https://www.dropbox.com/s/z8hseicip2pl793/2015-03-08%2012.34.52.mp4?dl=0 Cheers guys

My alternator makes a not-so-nice noise, sounds like it's crunching/creaking/rubbing somewhere. Done some searching on here and came to the conclusion that some WD40 may help resolve this. Where can I spray WD40? Is it on the belt? The alternator itself? The coils inside? Bolts all around...

Discovered a neat little app this evening called 3D Tuning. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=air.com.A3dtuning.Tuning3D Does what it says on the tin really! Get given a standard car and then you can 'tune' it to your liking. Interested in what you guys would do to your Clio's...

As per title; any ideas how to fit the bonnet stay from my old bonnet onto my new one that's on the car? It's rivited in to the old bonnet, so presume it must be drilled out. Do I then just simply get hold of a pop riveter and attach it to the new bonnet? Forgot to do it when I fitted the new...

Hellloooo Clio's rears need changing. Wippie! Can't find a definitive answer, or a certain answer, or whatever, but have been looking at the following: Michelin Energy Saver + Dunlop StreetResponse 2 Goodyear EfficientGrip Compact Pirelli P1 Cinturato Verde Continental Premium Contact 5...

Hi guys n gals Decided to sort out my car for winter. Washed with Meguiar's Gold Class Car Shampoo, polished with AutoGlym's Super Resin Polish & sealed with AG's Extra Gloss Protection. Couldn't find my damn applicator pad so did it with an old cotton t-shirt that I took a pair of scissors to...

So I want to give my engine bay a clean, but am a bit apprehensive about water getting in and messing things up. What do I need to cover with plastic bags? I know that the alternator could do with covering, as can the fuse box....what about the battery? Or plugs? Not going to use a pressure...

Anybody used CreateMyPlates.co.uk? Cheaper than FancyPlates for what seems to be the same product. Being a student, every little helps ;) http://www.createmyplates.co.uk/showplates/ Looking to get a front plate, size 520 x 90mm

So I got a nice big juicy dent on my bonnet, courtesy of mr cyclist deciding he wants to cross the road right infront of me in the rain. Any ideas on how to remove it? With the bonnet being double skinned, can't really get any tools of any significance in from the bottom to push it out that...

Should I? Shouldn't I? I have a nice big dent on the front of my bonnet....do you think the sticker will just bring attention to that instead?

Hello Infamous leaking manual sunroof on my mk2. Tried replacing the seal, to no avail so looking for a business to come out and do it for me. Anybody got any companies that they have used before or know of that do a good job at a good price? So far I have a quote of £130.50 from Sunroof...

Hi, My MK2 Clio (non-sport) has had this problem where I go to unlock the car with the key but it wont unlock. I then noticed that the lights on the dash, in the centre around the speedo, were all flashing including the immobiliser. I go to the passenger door, then unlock it manually using the...

Anybody know if MK2 non-sport's bonnet sizes differ for 3dr and 5dr? I have a 5dr with a nasty dent in the bonnet, seen a few 3dr bonnets on eBay, would they fit? Also, would you get a whole new new bonnet or try and pull it out yourself? It's right across the seam which makes it a b****** to...

Hellooooooo Thinking of getting some new clocks for my non-sport MK2 eg http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RENAULT-CLIO-Mk2-01-05-Speedo-Clock-Instruments-Clusters-P8200261104-99K-/111334976996?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item19ec14ede4 Any idea how much Renault would charge for the...

URGENT! Can I fit two Clio Sport front seats in the boot of an MK2 PH2 5dr? Obviously seats would be put all the way down. Listing on eBay ends in 30 mins and just realised they might not fit! Many thanks

So I have a 1.2l, 03 Clio, got less than 30k on the clock! As you can see, it's had (nearly) nothing done to it. I want to do some stuff to it, but not really sure what...I don't want to go crazy, just some subtle things that'll make it stand out from a bog standard one. I've been looking into...
