Bit of an update, turns out its nothing to do with the suspension at all.
When cold, sitting in neutral and not moving, jabbing the throttle causes the revs to dip right down and almost stall, and then pick up. The squeaks are still apparant, one as more fuel is sent to the engine and once...
Hello all, I have a Mk3 1.2tce clio on 12k miles, and under 'sharp' acceleration & deceleration upon lift off, I get a short high pitched squeak.
It only happens for a short while from cold until just after my water gets up to temperature, and doesnt squeak when negotiating speed bumps and pot...
I was insured with admiral last year, renewal came back as ~+£2 per month, (£1600), went and got a quote from elephant, their sister company who were much cheaper than everyone else, 1189! Couldnt work it out, just try as many places as you can! (19 2yrs ncb on a 1.2t :( crap postcode it seems)
Its not promoting drink driving in the slightest, would you complain about a shop selling similar keyrings? Do you accuse everyone you see with a similar keyring as a drink driver and report them to the police?
I can see where you're coming from but it seems like you havn't given it a seconds...
Saw a glimpse of what looked like a silver 197 whilst on my way back into work, anyone on here? I'm still pretty useless at spotting the different models of clios so could have been Anything lol
Ok, ive got a Mk3 Clio TCE, in a dark grey colour (sorry dont know the exact colour) and I have a distant family member who is a sign writer, and has offered to wrap my car for just the cost of materials! He gave me a figure off the top of his head for £300 for a full matte black wrap, do you...
Ouch thats a definate no go then lol! Springs it is, hopefully it'll be dropped before the end of april!
That price isnt bad at all, thought the paint would cost an absolute fortune. Did you buy it through renault or can you get the exact same shades of paint elsewhere?
Firstly thanks alot for your help!
Do you know off the top of your head roughly how much a 'decent' set of coilovers would cost for a Mk3? Would like a nice compromise of price & ride.
Yeah ive seen a few people doing it themselves, but I have absolutely no experience wjen it comes to cars...
Nice car mate, liking the carbon wrapped interior! Do you know if you can get springs which lower it a bit more? Would like to go a little lower than yours. Also, what were they like to insure?
The bumper plastics look good, how did you get them all done for £60?
What benefit does the...
Cheers, the small bits should be done soon when I get a day or two off work to get it all sorted, the colour coding and lowering will take a while because of a lack of funds!! Cant wait for it to be the way I want it.
Added a couple other bits I missed from the 'to do' list;
Get the stereo...
