Just had the AA out because i had a very interesting problem, i wasn't miles away from home, but he put some extra fuel in and escorted me home to make sure car was ok...
For all your genius' out there this is the problem, can you diagnose it?
Just driving along and shift from fourth to third...
sorry to thread jack here, but middo... would it be possible to not use the electric sander??? I have quite a bit of patience, but would it just be ridiculously hard?? I really want to colour code myself as i really cant afford to pay to have it done (places down here aint cheap) its a mk2 ph1...
Probably more than a third if i'm honest, but its gotta be done as it gets me to work and uni, so can't really live without it and on part time wages a new one isn't on the cards!
Yeah i got a lot of work for the money just because he does me mates rates pretty much, other wise it'd probably be at a breakers somewhere! Or being sold for parts on here!!!
Someone on here had some earlier this week iirc, do a quick search, i'm quite sure someone said about having it on cd if that helps, not sure if it was for the diesel though but worth a check as renault keep these things close to their chest!!
If this fails, go to your local auto electrican and...
But it drives like new so i "suppose" its worth it!!!!
After the clutch was on its way out i didn't have enough money to get it sorted so just left it, and then the head gasket decided to go on me two weeks ago!!!
Took it to my regular mechanic, got a pretty good quote for the two of 550 so...
I was gonna have one, but looked the like end of the tailpipe bulb out in the pic on the advert, looks good on yours though, wish i'd gone for it now!!! Ah well eh!
Looks really good for a five door IMO. Nicely lowered too.
Is this the exhaust? (just out of curiousity)

Also how much should i be looking to pay?
Want them done anthrice (or how ever you spell it (dark grey)) after christmas.
Cheers all.
I was towed with a rope last time i was, its only a short distance really (about a mile or so) would ignorance be acceptable with the rope?? :o i knew where my towing eye was as it being french it has "bang'd" before, but just couln't remember where, is it inbetween the grille looking thing at...
Two questions for you clio owners out there....
1) where does the toeing eye go on a mk2 ph1? (on the front) i.e to be towed
2) is there any particular sort of rope that i need to use to be towed? Or can i just make do with anything half decent?
Quick answers appreicated as am moving it...
I have a standard backbox for a 1.2 8v, dunnno if they're different, but if they're the same i'd be up for a swap with a non standard if its only the bkbox ur after :P
I have a question for you.... where did you get the strap for the airbox from???? The rubber one with the clips on it???? I am in desperate need, atm my air box is rattling around everytime i pull away as its not secured... not that my car is going anywhere with a f**ked head gasket but hey...
Ah man, i drove it back from college yesterday (just to get it home) by just adding some water to the coolant tank, at first it was a bit smokey from the exhaust, but then it disapeared and just looked perfectly normal and drove fine too and the temperature was normal... hmmm, hope i haven't...
I want to cry!!! Clutch is screwed too!!! Its a friends garage, hence why the price is like that (i wasn't sure if it was good or not)
Cheers for the seriously fast reply ben, do you know if it would do it any harm if i were to drive it with loads of water/coolant mix in the boot, and when ever...
Please someone in the know give me some advice PLEASE!!!
Any one up on engines... the head gasket went on my poor clio yesterday... :( Well i'm assuming thats whats gone (white smoke from exhaust, coolant resovour(spelling) empty, drinking coolant like a fish when i top it up) its a 1.2 8v
I...
