My Dad is a fully qualified welder in the ship yards, so might see if he can make me a little by-pass pipe for now. I have wrapped it with exhaust tape for now to cut the tank sound down.
It's not my Clio it's my bro's and it's a nightmare. Sump Gasket also needs changed.
The joys of French...

also i checked my spark plugs yesterday and they where perfect.
apart from is a little bit oil on the tip of the 4th spark plug normal ?

tints only look good if it's a light tint !
50% VLT is the perfect shade for any car.
anything darker and it looks to micky mouse to me.
tint is there to make a car look good not look stupic with jet black windows.
sorry but i hate dark tinted windows
i work in the tinting business.
all tints on front windows is illegal.
you need 70% VLT (visable light transmiton)
they isn't a tint on the market that meets that spec.
as for removing them.
get the car in a warm place i.e garage.
and get a hair dryer out and warm the tint.
you...
Its snowing and i've got a 15 mile trip back in about 6-8 inches of snow.
how does a standard valver manage with snow ?
just before I get my self killed :dead:
just done mine last weekend.

we sell a skin at work called
bull skin
it was developed by the usa army to stop the blades on there helicopters getting chipped.
so it's good stuff
all comes pre cut but i don't know if we can do clios i've only seen kits for aston martins and that etc.
only being 20 means anything faster isn't so insurance friendly.
already costing me £1100 TPFT
i'll get in though with a few renault tuners and see what they say.
don't think i'll sink all the money into it, just a little bit. lol
i've got some spare cash from the sale of my focus.
body work and everything else is mint on my clio.
so £4700 on performance.
whats the best plan of action ? :o
cheers
My brother has a Clio 1.4 8v Sport, W plate.
It's leaking oil and it's goin onto the CAT and buring.
I have looked at it, the oil filter was loose at first and I thought that
was the problem. Also tightened the sump plug.
Still leaked.
So i gave it a full service changin both filter...
