Much better in black mate was not keen on the red

Dried up grease on the input shaft on the gearbox covered in clutch dust can also cause similar stiff clutch as release bearing is hard to slide down it. Infact the last 2 i done suffered from this. Also the sleeve wears on the input shaft causing the surface to be rough and does not help...

Apologies i didnt realise this would cause so much aggro Assumed it was an old high mileage stiff clutch at the end of its lifespan needing a heavy spring for assistance - loading up the release bearing and removing the free play at the end of the pedal when not pressed, on the plastic cased...

Fair dos mate i get where your coming from. In your circumstances if you just want to ease the pedal off a bit then yeah itll make a difference as its a newish clutch. The ones that ive drove when well worn are stiff as f**k, 70-100k miles. Nothing is fixing that apart from renewal in my...

I put a new clutch in all of mine to be fair. Mine was on the original clutch so it was causing gear selection issues which would have eventually knackered the gearbox even though the biting point seemed reasonable. Sold with no issues after 10-15k miles still light. Same with both diesels, the...

Its a bit of a band aid though as ultimately clutch is worn causing it to be heavy, which eventually can cause other issues. Its not going to be as bad as foot sat on clutch agreed but its not the correct way to fix it.

Theres got to be more tension on the release bearing with it pulling on the arm, unless the spring is very weak, which would essentially do nothing.

Email is best just wait for a response as this is usually a busy period for Chris.

Gt turbo clutch is a like a 100kg leg press compared to 172 :ROFLMAO:

Stock clutch only becomes heavy with age and mileage, probably needs changing if your finding it heavy. Id be concerned at adding extra load onto the release bearing with the tension.

EfiParts runcorn.

To be fair id expect fault codes stored on 90% of the modern cars out there if you go probing the obd with a scanner. No point in even looking unless its in limp mode/eml on. If it has been sat for sale for a while batt voltage probably dropped through lack of use.

Typical renault, stored previous codes prob related to low batt voltage. If eml is not on and everything working ok would not worry, get the place to put a new battery on it

Looks mega, a nice result. If you need an arch still get one off ebay.

Its a minor issue that and a bolt on panel which is easy to replace, you wouldnt even bother repairing that, replace with rot free panel, and i prob would not bother until it gets worse. Ive never seen rust there personally but the clios are getting on so its not really a biggie. Id be more...

Looks tidy, in for updates

If its mapped for higher octane fuel, every tank should be the same premium fuel.

95 alright for normal driving but if giving it some put the higher octane in. Id like to see how much ignition is pulled via knock sensor on 95 if giving it some, id bet it wont be too happy.

Guessing its cable shift, id start by looking at the cables/bracket that holds them onto the gearbox.

Ive got normal meg offset wheels to fit to mine with semi slicks for Blyton. I was hoping to use the 10mm spacers ive used in the past on the ph1 whees, will need to offer up and see i guess. My current rear wheels are et50 iirc so might be hinting at 15mm spacer.

What size spacer have you used on the rears?

Ecumaster black already has the can stream configured for clio2 dash and works good. I believe link and maxxecu do too bit ive not used them personally.

Ecumaster black and link ecu's and i believe maxxecu can also stream dash data on the canbus, far better options just need to make a loom to suit.

Works class, same with silvo wadding. I use it on all alloy and stainless parts.

More hassle sending it back tbh than viewing it before buying. Save yourself the misery and view any 2nd hand car before buying.

I would be looking at that before you buy, bodywork/welding to a good standard aint cheap

Silvo wadding or autosol will get them shiney again.

Nice, thats what i want as some had a sticker on which did not look the best. Im going to treat myself to one soon

@The Handbrake Kid is the renaultsport engraved on the wheel like the early ones, or a sticker?

Good to see its still giving good service. Didnt know that ren say 3,5ltrs consumption is acceptable, crazy really! To check turbo just drop the exhaust off at the turbo and look for signs of oil on the exhaust turbine. If its wet with oil turbo is on its way. When my blue dci was using...
