The vents are hard to be accessed from the mark 1 due to it being covered by most of the bonnet, most likely when i cleaned the car it has ran into the vents and down the sills of the car. Maybe ill have to just full clean the car and doors and sills at the weekend. Even if its wet ill clean the...

So these bits will always remain? I doubt that. Ill try clay tomorrow after work.

Could i suggest you use the earth already built into the rear seat buckle? Undo it slightly and push the opened "O" ring into the slot and tighten up, then try the amp. I should switch on. Amp should then have 1 GND wire, 1 12V and 1 RMT wire to power it. Amp should have 1/2/3/4 wires depending...

Some clown thought it would be funny to egg my car. :dapprove: So went down to the local power wash at the BP and ordered "Number 3", something along the lines of hot rinse, hot shampoo and rise off. Now i still have this disgusting film on the car and all these bits, and i even washed the car...

Ken - Know. He said, do you know where he could get a magnex or blueflame exhaust for a 172, but not from renault. D14N3 - Renault dont make magnex or blueflame exhausts.

He is after a standard exhaust. Nothing fancy from his first post.

Eurocar parts do the exhausts. GSF also do them.

Quality, will phone him up today and see what he can do.

Ali, detail me!

Teach me, teach me. Ill even get you a haribo starmix box. Cola Bottles and Cherrys FTW.

I know honey, just saying, your in the "CS wage is over half a billion a year" crowd. :rasp: I dont earn £10,000 a year either, a little more, but between the half a billion you earn and £10,000.

Excellent detail Ali as usual. Picked up some tips for washing my brief now as hardly anyone details red cars, so maybe ill invest in some of the products you listed.

I need a company to be able to plug their pc/tuning machine into my mark 1 clio (with an ecu) and tune/optimise my car. After failing my MOT on emissions it occured to me that i had changed the engine and it may not be running correctly. Anyone got any companies they have used in scotland...

They did put a copper washer with a inner seal on when they fitted the sump plug correct? I know Mark 1's need this so maybe yours does also.

Yes, i wish someone to fit the senders into the engine for myself and wire them up. Of course i will be paying a permium for it, but i really would like i done.

Alan but you must be earning the minimum of Riise's pay check a week though. As most of CS does earn around £100000000 a year. Im 19, TPFT 1998 1.2L Mark 1 clio - £560 with my dad as a named driver and my own policy. Went down massively from £1112 last year for the same car. PS - My dad...

BUMP

Bolt on kit to make it look like a V6?

Being scottish is cracked up to be as bad as you make it. Actually is quite fun, least we get haggis chases.

Mark 1s, ahh i like mine again today. Im really sad that i would want to see it for a 172 or a 182. I actually would be sad when it goes, its taught me so much about how to fix a car and how to spend lots of time on it. I really would be so sad when it goes, had some much crap it, and it is the...

Im after my three dials in my clio to be wired up for the "16v" look in the dash. I already have the loom to the 16v clocks and they light up etc, i wanted to know if anyone knew someone who would wire them up for me so they actually work. I am of course will to pay for this kind of work...

Ahh a carwash for the Ferrari. Is he nuts. Good pictures though.

Wouldnt say mine was a poverty spec mark 1, far from that. However the cup just fills all my boxes right now, and ive had some bad experiences with my clio. Ask any of the CS Scottish lot, its just needs some tlc, which it has all of that, even bodywork and a new engine. Just i really am...

Well guys, im a mark 1 guy. I think ive driven my mark 1 enough to comment now. I like my mark one, but i feel its crap to be fair. After it sliding away from me on a roundabout i feel its not cracked up to be great as everyone says. Im actually quite scared of my car when it gets wet at it...

I drove a 1.8 TDCI Focus Estate for a while and still have access to it. Now thats quick, but i really enjoy the cup. The killer for me is insurance right now, thats what is putting me off, but with me being 19, 1 Year NCB and ive been driving for 1.7 years. So still on my "provisional full...

Wow, must say, i love it. I really do. Thanks to Gazmar1 i am now addicted. I want to get rid of my crap 1.2l and buy a 172 no matter what i do now. Ohh the drive was great very quick and i really liked the car to drive. Nice bucket seats in his though, so i may invest in some for when i get...

Bump. Anyone?

Re: found this link tonight...has anyone seen it before? Surprising that alot of the Mark 1 clios ive typed in are shwoing AS NOT Insured, including me. So i dug deeper and found out im not even on the MID which i have access to. However i am insured with valid docs. Phoned insurance company...

Hi guys, im thinking of some small tuning modifications, so i thought i would ask here. Most of you have had a Mark 1 at some stage so show me the CAF you fitted for them. Thanks.

If you take the oil cap off when the car is ticking over does the noise get louder? Rev the car slightly when the cap is off, and see if it goes louder.
