Thanks for the quick response!!
The headlamp reflector mechanism is loose inside the casing. I thought about separating the casing but seems a lot of people have had problems.
My nearside xenon headlamp is broken so looking to replace but the cost of a xenon headlamp is high so thought about replacing both sides with normal headlamps and selling O/S xenon headlamp . The car is only used for hillclimbing, but has to be road legal. Is the wiring the same or am I...

These guys have powder coated my front subframe and several other parts and made a nice of them. They have a few wheels on display inn their workshop and all look pretty good.
Hi @alistairolsen
Thanks for your help with my non starting.
Would this kind of list be helpful to you or do you already have one.
I'm not sure how to upload this so just taken snapshot.
I can email if you wish

It lives and it shall go to the ball (Harewood Hillclimb) !!!
Based upon the feedback ( thanks!) started systematically checking back cleaning up contacts checking fuses/relays and got to point where immobilizer light would now go out and car would just keep cranking, but not start. Had power...
Hi
Thanks for the responses I put a new lower gearbox mounting on and cleaned up the earth strap but I'll try the extra earth via jump leads. The black wire to the gearbox has been reconnected but I'll take it off and clean it up again.
I'll look at the white wire and others...
Hi,
Need help from the experts on here!!!
I took my gearbox out to fit a Gripper diff all connected back up but will not start.
Car cranks over for less than a second then stops, no noise from fuel pump.
Replaced crank shaft sensor
Initially thought it was the ECU as had suffered minor...
Thanks for the responses all sorted managed to locate one with all the numbers identical to mine with UCH and key fob as well
I love this forum:):):):)
Thanks guys!
I presume I can get more keys cut and matched to the ECU? I have in the past had a Honda key mapped to another key one of the in town key specialists
I have been a complete idiot and wrecked by ECU, so a replacement is urgently required
What do I need? an ECU obviously but a UCH, new keys? new Ign barrel?
Does anyone have the required parts?
63 and competing in the Harewood hill climb championship in my self prepared Clio182. Managed a 69.88 which is good for a Clio with a standard engine and box! but will be out in 2019 with a new Gripper diff!
The three regularly used hillclimbs closest to you are Prescott, Shelsley Walsh and Loton Park. and the Midland Hillclimb Championship covers all these venues.looks like you would be running in call A(ii) assuming they apply the multiplier for your turbo...
Hi,
Which class you would run in is really dependent upon the mods that have been done to your Clio and to a lesser extent which events you want to run in and where you are.
If you are entering MSA events then the blue book is your friend. Alternatively there is Javelin Sprint Series...
Thanks for the responses, the gaiter is in good condition except for the small split so I'll try gluing it. Just need to pass the MOT as the car only goes up and down Harewood hillclimb
The gaiter has a tiny split in it but will be an MOT failure so looking to replace whilst gearbox is out.
Found this one here https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RENAULT-CLIO-MK2-2-0-182-DRIVESHAFT-OFF-SIDE-BRAND-NEW-2003-2005/130613528995?hash=item1e692c49a3:g:DssAAOSw3fZaPa~S
Anyone use this company...
Well spent the last couple of days excl Xmas day removing gearbox + subframe. First time so proved 'interesting'. Subframe bolts to 3 hours to get out due to being seized.
I take my hat off to you guys who do this outside in poor weather?
Subframe off to be powder coated and gearbox off to...
interesting article, my concern is the reason the rejection 1. An airbag obviously missing or defective.
I hope you are correct in your observations I'll find out on 3rd April!
Not straight forward is it?
https://mattersoftesting.blog.gov.uk/when-is-a-modified-vehicle-a-rally-car/
This is what concerns me and I suspect others on this forum who require an MOT for a car where some/all of the airbags have been removed.
in response to an earlier post
Not according to...
Having spoken to my local garage as my Clio is going in for MOT soon I understand that rally cars will be allowed some exemptions. However the vehicle must be to all intents and purposes be a rally car which I understand would mean a fitted roll cage in addition to other fitments such as full...
Hi,
I purchased 1 inch alloy box section (nice and light) for my drivers seat about £25.00 for fitting my Corbeau Club Sport seats to the custom seat frames I bought from Jon Foz on this forum.
That's what I thought I and did ask the question. He said only makes small margin. The suit has the tell tale FIA Hologram in the zip which based on research I did. Quality is good so I'm confident these are the real deal. The seller offers a returns policy and has 100% feedback. Demon...
Ive just bought a new Sparco FIA race suit for a return to a season of hillclimbing/sprinting as my old one was no longer valid.
Came across this seller on ebay who is undercutting everyone else by a considerable margin. Thinking too good to be true asked a few questions to which seller was...
