    Power steering leak.

    Yep that’s it. It won’t be coming from the low pressure side to the reservoir. But if it’s wet around the driveshaft area it won’t be pump either Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Power steering leak.

    I have a he a leak from one of the joints on the rack but it was only after having a pipe replaced. They’re a bugger to get to! More likely as someone else has said, a seal on the rack itself. More investigation needed Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Power steering leak.

    Pipe normally and most commonly from around the pressure sensor just by the alternator. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Ignition leads / coil

    I suppose they might be out of stock.

    Ignition leads / coil

    Yes the Valeo coil pack is the go-to replacement now. You can still get oem leads though. At least you could a few months ago. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Squeak from the driver side whilst driving?

    If your losing bolts from this it might explain the oil on that end of your engine. However, it wouldn't have been touched during the belt change.

    Squeak from the driver side whilst driving?

    There are several on that end of the engine. If it’s not water pump it could be the casting around the bottom pulley which also has those types of bolts. None should ever come loose though and are going to be very difficult to get to without quite a bit of stripping down. You may need to remove...

    Clio Cup Racer No28 Rally Car

    I'm led to believe that skimming these heads is not a good idea. I think that's confirmed it!

    Colesy track car build again 172

    I use a lightweight pulley on my Cup alternator. Don't forget that the light weight pulley is also a larger diameter to lower the current draw so you may need a slightly longer belt than that.

    Using tyre profile to change your 'gearing' ?

    As you say, with chassis bracing, cage, ARBs etc you've already got a pretty stiff car and a mid engine car is always going to have an advantage. The key to slicks is getting heat into all 4 of them evenly. Difficult if you have the nose diving at every corner and all the weight transferring to...

    Using tyre profile to change your 'gearing' ?

    AO50 was the replacement for the 48. A great tyre also but not road legal.

    Using tyre profile to change your 'gearing' ?

    You can pick up 15" slicks from the Ginetta series if you were to move to a 15" rim bujt I wouldn't recommend going to slicks without a suspension that can handle it. Chances are your springs will be way too soft on your coilovers. Have you considered Yoko AO52s? They are an awesome all round...

    The trials & tribulations of racing a Clio

    A little behind with this thread although to be honest 2020 has not been quite as fast moving as normal for obvious reasons! Let's start with Snetterton back in August. All set up early doors on Saturday morning at a damp but not too cold Snetterton. Engine had been running nicely after...

    Cam cover sealant

    Yes, clogging oilways and getting caught in the oil pick up on the pump is the issue. I’ve taken several engines apart and found silicone on the mesh of the pickup. The anaerobic sealant goes rock solid in the joint but any excess stays fluid so it’s much safer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Fred and James’ Clio 182 Racecar Project

    I spoke to him after. It was definitely cold tyres and trying too hard. Nick Hamilton had an almost identical off a few years before in a Clio Cup. Right down to the fire extinguisher coming loose! You can find it on YouTube Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
