Yeah it's pretty low miles for the age 😊

Init. It doesn't seem 2 minutes ago when I bought it lol.

The car will be rust and I'll probably be dust by then 🤣

16 years and 51 weeks of ownership 😊

So it did come in handy after all 👍

These are good quality abs rings...

I had a 172 from new for 4 years. I've now had my 182 from new for almost 17 years. I can't believe how fast time as gone lol. Looks wise. I prefer the 182, the wheels the twin exhaust. As for performance there's nothing in it at all. I think some of the very late 172s had cruise and traction...

Like @Clio_fool says. You'll be hard pushed to find one sub 50k miles. You're really limiting yourself there mate. If it was me I'd raise my limit to around 70 or 80k miles and a well cared for example. Chances are any problems or parts that will have needed replacing will have been done. And...

The coolant bottle should be replaced at 100k miles? Never heard that one before. If it's the water pump you're talking about, then yeah I'd change that when you get the cam belt and aux belt done. I think I'm on my 3rd water pump in 17 years of ownership and 110k miles👍 If it ain't broke don't...

Could be your throttle body. I've seen somebody else with a problem similar to yours. They replaced the throttle body and it cured it.

Sorry for jumping on somebody else's post. There's a guy on Facebook called Craig Cockburn who was selling new led boards for the brake light. It might be worth dropping him a message if he has any left. They were £30 posted.

You sure it's not the green cruise control symbol? Get a pic up of the dash with the light on for clarification.

Even cheaper than I posted earlier, from Halfords. Bosch super plus £5.66...

I always use Bosch super plus universal wiper blades on my 182, £7.49 each from Eurocarparts. They're as good as anything I've ever used. https://www.eurocarparts.com/p/bosch-super-plus-single-universal-wiper-blade-sp21-485771100

To be honest it's not something I really look at. In my opinion it's still the best and cheapest solution and never breaks 😊

I absolutely hated getting back in my 182 after driving the Fiesta for 3 months. I'm 6'1" and just couldn't find a position I was comfortable in. It took me ages but now I'm back to being comfortable now 😊 The Fiestas a good car, bloody nippy, but the fuel consumption was poor, I floored it...

Cheers mate 👍 it's looking the best it has for years now. Coming up to almost 17 years ownership 😊

I just checked and you have a mk3 Clio? That sounds like a right pain in the arse to change. I've got a 182. I changed my fan for a 2nd hand unit back in August 2021. Still a bit of faff but probably not as bad as yours. I've done a bit of reading and it sounds like, fingers crossed 🤞, it might...

Bit of a strange one this. Yesterday i went into town and the fan was working perfectly well. When I got back In the car the fan was as dead as a dodo. The climate control panel was showing the fan speed and heat setting as it should and could be changed to different heat and speed. But no...

Was a bit nippy here too this morning in Accrington. 😮

I don't know if you noticed? The aluminium 1.5 tonne only lifts 35.3cm. The aluminium 2 tonne lifts 47cm. The low profile 2 tonne lifts 50.5cm which is better for me if I want to get under the car. I've had mine for about 2 years now and it's been well worth the money.

Carpro Dlux. Makes fading plastics black again and lasts for well over 12 months.

I'm glad you got it sorted 👍

I did a half arsed explanation with pics when I changed my fan. Post #6 https://cliosport.net/threads/guide-needed-for-removing-heater-blower-motor-from-clio-mk2.834181/

No. You have to remove the scuttle panel therefore the windscreen wipers. The more room you can make the better. Like @Darren S said. Make sure you relocate the wiper mechanism back onto the little metal pin in the middle just under the windscreen.

To be honest my headlight washers haven't worked for ages and I'm not bothered. If I remember correctly, the pump on the right is for the screen washer jets so maybe the rear screen too as its a two way pump. They're a bit fiddly to get out. You have to remove the windscreen wipers to remove the...

Sounds like the pumps knackered. I fitted one of these not long ago and it's been spot on. Also check there are no kinks anywhere, especially where the tube comes from the pump itself into the bonnet. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0068M0ZTK/?tag=cliospnet01-21

£876 from Larkspeed for wheel and tyre package. That's with a 195 budget quality tyre,whatever quality budget means? https://www.larkspeed.com/index.pl?p=SP2120716ANPK&a=i

Oh right. I never knew that. I've seen the question asked before. At least you're sorted now 👍
