It should really struggle if not impossible to start if no glow plugs are working at that temps

Presume all codes have been cleared after fitting new glow plugs, if all are dead when cranking then its likely a grounding issue from the ecu, got to be sure all plugs are good and no broken wires...wiggle wiggle wiggle, renaults are shite, sell it 😂

Light out and dry it with a hair dryer, if it doesn't work its fu#ed, launch it in a bush, fit new light and away you go, never leave the protection cover off in future though 😂

Just get a good back window and through it in, very easy to find locally I'd imagine

All plugs come pre gapped, you can check them but they will all be the same

Buy a Haynes manual if you've not got a clue, it'll help you no end to get started

Everyone likes PS3, but i personally think they are to soft on the sidewall and let go very easily in the wet, wouldn't purchase them again, but as said most like them in the wet

They grip OK in the wet but are not a wet tyre, they dont like the damp patches so much, they'll be good enough to use until you wear them out, I've used them for both wet and dry this last while back to wear them out, they dont do very well in the dry, overheat after 5 laps then become very...

Fair play if he got 11k for that, about double its actual worth imo, but he's a top bellend saying he never noticed the paint defects, he knew about them all!

They are a decent car, I would advise getting it undersealed including inside the front wings, they start to get crusty underneath at that mileage

Ive got ad08r 205 45 16, they grip quite well, only downside is they are rough first thing in the morning until they get a little heat to soften up!

Nightmare, yeah you'd need to see what went/is going wrong for them to throw rods out, whether its oil pressure related, bearing failure etc, I try and keep away from the limiter for this reason on my 172, read a few similar stories 🫣😂

When did it fail, 7k rpm, 4krpm, on a downshift etc?

Fit a smaller turbo, you'll get plenty enough power from one with none of the hassle

Yes, not sure some sort of grease, mine only does on trackdays when hot also, must be getting a bit dry

Cable needs lubed, best to remove it and lube it up, easier than doing it fitted, something I need to do also now you've remembered me 🫣

Fix anything that's worn first like the rack arms, or could be a slightly sticky caliper

Get a straight edge and some feeler gauges, somethings either distorted/damaged face etc, or your putting it together wrong 😂

Leave the oil for 300miles, then just stick in normal stuff and send it, be fine

Looks good, it'll be ready for a thrash in the snow and a few handbreakers 😂

Hopefully its gone to someone who will use it, never seen one on the road in the last 15yrs 🫣

That blue steel needs two coats to fully seal 👍

I've had the same issue with new depo headlights, there's no cracks in them I can see but they fog up whether I've used the lights or not, there getting ripped out so i can see what the issue is, very annoying

So it was running rough as toast then you went back on track 😂🫣 could be a fuel issue

Veban motorsport have just got a few shells if thats any interest to you

Yeah you'd need to be vigilant spending decent money on any old French shyte

You thought about just selling it as is and buying a minter to enjoy, let someone else waste their time chasing rot! both will be the same cost the time your finished, thats what id be doing anyway, resell or move it on

Clio looks to be in a good shape to start with, is there any corrosion? Mine was good apart from a little under the rear axle mounts, nothing serious but guessing it would of got bad hadn't i seen to it then, was 10yrs ago now 😂 time to sell it i think ha

Powder coating just cant deal with stone chips, i used to use my cup all year, it was restored underneath and everything has held up well with it being waxoiled over the years, its all the powder coated items that now look in a sad state, rear axle was chipped to death within 18months after not...

Worst thing is once you get into it there's usually a load more fabrication needed, not always but its usually the case
