As above disconnect track rod ends and see if the hubs turn smooth. If you need swivels doing, you will most likely need inserts to go with the swivel bearings, can get them here https://www.optimiz-access.fr/fr/chassis-voitures/6816-entretoise-inferieure-de-pivot-megane-2-rs.html
Dmf fail is common enough on them. I have a 225 breaking that vibrates from low rpm when revving on idle, dmf issues.
Bad injectors would cause a misfire not vibration. It wont be bearing related, when they are failing the engine revs ok with audiable knock, not vibration.
Is it still running the forge cooler? Looks quite small. Sounds like our old 250 ic which consistently pulled 30/40deg temps when on it on a forge cooler. They dont work great on any car.
I was thinking this had a welly cooler on it but was thinking of the twingo. Normal 70mm welly cooler will...

Been using the orange dci this week. Ive done 200ish miles in it and no sign of engine warning light, running decent. I stuck a tin of liqui moly diesel purge in the tank and give it a high speed italian tuneup.
Mot on Tuesday.
Need a dti and degree wheel, with the catcams tooling to hold the cams in place without cam cover on, to time them up bang on the money to the spec sheet.
Yep possibly bad wiring to the plug. On my dci i noticed the wiring was bare to the pressure switch for 20mm or so and corroded to fcuk. Still worked suprisingly, depinned connector and repaired it before issues.
Ecumaster black, maxxecu and link from memory will all talk to the clio 2 canbus nicely if you want oem dash to work properly, with all the good features of a modern standalone ecu.
20vt has been done loads of times. As above, custom engine mounts, shafts, exhaust, wiring/ecu, hoses, fuel system etc. Budget 10k if you cant fabricate stuff yourself.
Wouldnt bother personally if you cant do the work yourself.

Fired the orange clio up to move it, to get the breaker megane 225 out. Starts up as usual and idling for a couple of mins in usual chuggy fashion from cold, its never ran great from cold but has been like that for 45 thousand miles.
I hear idle pick up suddenly and smooth out, and...

Blue dci passenger rear drum brake started making a right squealing the other day. Brake pedal was still ok ish but not as sharp as it had been and handbrake was a bit w**k.
This is usually due to one of the below issues as i have been there before on several different cars over the...
Hard to say without looking. Basically, solid red immob light means key is recognized but communication between ecu and uch is not working.
last time i fixed similar issues, it was knackered wiring on the engine loom. I would start by checking the white engine bay plug for corrosion. Then check...
Hello mate. I used the fittings that came with the car..measure up what you need and from what i recall universal adaptors for the master to push fir are easy to find.
