Done 2x f4r cambelts over last 2 weekends and not broken one yet :LOL:

Good progress, defo needs the kit on

Its been called the Renault rescue centre in the past off my mates due to the amount of broken projects in there at one point haha. Glad you enjoyed the pax laps mate..the kangoo was pretty epic, and deep down i do regret selling it as it was so much fun, especially revving the knackers off it...

Get it filled with the dye in and find the leaks, and fix. I had mine filled up recently and it fired straight up ice cold, they forgot to put the dye in so need to get it redone, lasted 3 weeks though. Id bet its the condenser leaking, as above replace that if its looking sketchy

Bang the full 182 running gear on, rear beam, front subframe the lot. Keep the dci rack, and one of those boxes for the ecu off ebay to control it. You can code the esp out with clip if going for a cup setup with no abs.

The custom mandrel for knocking the cam seals home is a good idea. I had to use an old crank pulley to do mine. Ive had good success with 10 mins of toe out overall up front, turns in good, does not knack the tyres and not too skitty under braking. You can go more aggressive on toe out for...

Yes please mate, be ideal for spares. Do you have the loom for injectors? I need an injector plug as the clip bust on this, its zip tied on at the mo, which seems to be sound lol.

I do indeed mate, got another project in mind after the Extra van is done. Next years job lol.

Anyway moving on, Blue megane has had the timing belt, water pump, aux kit, new fuel pump and 15t fitted. Old cambelt and aux looked mint after 5 years/15k, the crank pulley did not look so good though!! Mapping booked for next month at Efi, hope the clutch holds out, but should see 300hp...

Not updated for a while, but sadly the Kangoo sold a few weeks ago. Miss it a little, but got the right money for it so could not turn it down. In summary, an epic experience with it being my first N/A vehicle in ten years, cost a f**king fortune to fix all the faults and actually make it...

Blue dci update. Resealed the sunroof frame, not seen any water come in but smelt a bit foisty like water had been getting in. Used 3mm glazing tape which i had in stock, done the same on the orange dci years ago and it worked great. Ready for the rainy season lol. Had a scan with clip as the...

Know where your coming from @Danith, the hawkers out there scrounging around for cheap cats, to sell on are not interested in the cars, just interested in making dollar. It goes against the club etiquette of helping each other out etc in my eyes. Ive ran the Renault5gtturbo owners page on...

Door drain holes clear?

As above, use full clio loom, splice the kangoo rear lights and switches in

Should be easy enough to sort mate, my kangoo had everything programmed out apart from one of the sensors as without it, the raid auto lock function did not work. If all else fails bang a 2nd hand airbag ecu in and start from fresh

The ta technik are cheap for a reason, the Eibachs or a set of H&r springs will be miles better mate ;)

Bang a cheap stock wheel and airbag on, reprogram the airbag ecu to get the airbag light working properly so it looks legit, without even wiring airbag up. Take it to another mot test station next year, he sounds like a bit of a jobsworth

Dci is also 58mm bolt spacing. You might have problems using 60mm clio sport struts, as they are probably m14 bolts compared to m12 on non sport, and possibly thicker upright on the hub, would need to check that. Plenty of aftermarket shocks available in 58mm, koni, bilstein etc but quite...

If the injectors werent in magnetti marelli bags they are probably aftermarket knockoff

A few pics of what you can look at

Thats the one @Mcbudge, i paid a bit less but was ages ago. You can check all live data, lambda, knock correction, coolant temp etc. Cam timing knacker on? Mine idled quite s**t with it out, and also map sensor o - rings can leak a little causing issues like this, so check for any airleaks.

I have the full chip/gold board can clip clone, used it loads no issues. Pay the extra £20 or so for the gooden, as the ultra cheap ones fail quite often, and last cheap green board one i had nearly bricked a megane uch when i was reprogramming it due to it disconnecting:cautious: Mine has...

Get somebody to hose the outside down to try and pinpoint the leak whilst looking.

After my last experience id say its worth fitting one as a precaution, especially if the box has done a few miles. Mine popped out after riding a lhs kerb at Croft.

Circlip will have popped out as above, happened to me at Croft. Fit a renfort plate instead of the circlip.

Have you tried another injector in the cylinder thats misfiring? Noid light to check the wiring? Are the new spark plugs same as oem as i read other brands can cause issues. Every time ive had a misfire its been injector or ign related.

The paint looks quite faded/oxidised, so will prob be a nightmare to match fresh paint against, and no doubt the bodywork will be full of dings and scuffs so to get it looking mint, will probably need a full shoot. Prob easier to get a ph1 needing bodywork, and do a full shoot on it in...

Its cheap, its a rare colour, and will probably need f**k loads of maintenance parts as quite unloved. Depends what you want i guess?

Seen this yesterday, they come up all the time but you will need to be quick as any cheap clio sport sells like hot cakes. Hard to get one sub £500 with a good engine as they break for half decent money. The parts can get astronomical when you start tallying up the prices when rebuilding.

Years of cheap daily driving after all the servicing bits are done, cant get better for the money in my eyes. I think i have £600 top in this one including buying it, no worry about depreciation or nowt, cheap tax and superb mpg. Got it insured for the year at £148 which is class, so just...
