Turbo doesn't need to be boosting, if the shaft bearing seals have gone then it will leak oil into the intake even on idle. Over fuelling on a diesel normally creates a pale blue-ish smoke, not white.

Agree with Dan@SJM tbh, if its pluming white smoke and down on power/spluttering id be checking the turbo, remove the turbo intake pipe and (with the engine off) check for excessive play in the turbine/bearing/shaft. There may be a tiny tiny amount of play which would be normal but it should be...

Possibly, unless its been hit by something or maybe less likely over tightened and cracked the casing

I like it on mine, sounds better (if you like it loud) don't know about power gains but freed up the revs somewhat. Anything that helps the engine get more air in/out will normally give you some sort of gain, even if its only a small one.

Cheers dude, Leicester meet need arranging as george182 mentioned

Have you checked the connection on the plug of the antenna/immob ring? The hoop that sits over the ignition barrel that reads the keys code. any sort of contact resistance upsets them. These connections NEED to be dry and clean (don't spray wd40 on them)

White RS200 Clio on abbey lane around 8 this morning, nice car.

Saw you driving up Regent street towards DeMonfort hall at around 6.00 tonight, looked nice.

Decided to Carbon wrap my Badges on the bean, and also refurbished the gear stick emblem.

Yeah post a link up and il have a look

Good luck mate, pretty sure it will sort the issue your describing, keep us posted :)

Could even be the coil pack at fault if its a genuine misfire, these normally get worse as the engine gets hotter, but not always. Any evidence of oil getting into the sparkplug holes? No4 especially ( cambelt side)....... Dephaser pulley won't help either as if they get so bad they can put the...

Welcome to ClioSport mate :)

In regards to your last problem, a dry/worn outer cv joint will click/knock on full lock and the joint could also be locking up, sort the joints first then road test it to see if it has rectified all of your issues.

Welcome :), the real excitement will come when you get in it for the first time.

Exactly this, sends the cars handling from amazing to shite lol

My seatbelts are exactly the same, I need to do mine asap lol, Inferno is the best colour IMO....... im not biased at all ;)

Cheers guys, I think il get a set ordered from the stealers

Not bad mate, nice low mileage. Get some pics up dude....Oh and welcome to Clio Sport :)

Cheers mate, have been thinking about this since I saw the O/S/R shocker tbh, cant think of much else.

The O/S/R shock has a rustly looking colour all over the leg even at the bottom covering the lower mounting bolt, its completely covered like something leaked but more like water has ran down it. I am a mechanic so know my stuff, the residue on the shocker is not oily in the slightest lol, its...

Sorry, it WAS actually snaking lol, the rear end was dancing this morning, to the point where if I didn't back off it would have gone on me, couldn't hold it into the bend, felt horrendous.

Front lights look ok mate, How much are you planning to spend on it? maybe colour code the bumpers and door strips, or as said get the RS kit as its basically a straight fit. Engine cover missing?

Just a quick question regarding my 2005 Clio 182 (with cup suspension).When I am driving on a long road that has a sweeping bend the car feels like it's snaking, the worst I have felt it was today coming off the motorway and onto a long sweeping right hand bend (60-70mph). It wasn't losing...

I do my Cambelt 4 years or 60,000 miles to play safe and aux belt kit every interval, same with my previous cars, always a year or two early and same with the miles.

Yeah, always lube the nipples before tweaking them, otherwise it will end up in tears

wow lol

To be fair to the OP, Honda jazz's are pretty solid, I service many of them on a regular basis and they are very well built and reliable. If I needed a car that was reliable and wanted a Honda, id get a jazz or civic too, they don't look too bad either.
