Hello,
Was driving to work the other day, and I hit a massive pot hole, which took a huge chunk out of my tyre wall and wheel. I need to get a new alloy, how much do these cost from renault?
(My car is a 53 Clio Dynamique)
Cheers for any help.
Hello,
Was on my way home from work, when I pulled out of a junction, and my clio felt like it had lost all power.
There was a light flashing that looked like the one which says overheating, anyway i got home, left the car for a bit, turned it back on it the light was off.
I did have the...
Hello,
Started my car today, and as I pulled out, put my foot down a touch, and in second it felt really lumpy.
Anyone else ever had this? Is it a problem, or is it just because my engine is cold?
Just got a few quotes off the internet......
19 - 2 YEARS NO CLAIM
Seat Ibiza Cupra R - 1795
Any opinions, still 18 atm, but set the quote up for when I hit 19, would like get an RS clio but lowest ive got is 3k, so I thoguht about the cupra, and even that is quite high. Anyone on here...
Does anyone else get this? I have put up with it for a while now, but its starting to do my head in, just driving normally and Il hear it creak etc. Any idea how to fix it?
Cheers
Just fitted 2 cold air feeds to my induction kit on my clio, and now the revs are lower. Normally in firth going 60 it will be just or over 3k now its more like 2.7? Does that sound right?
Saw a 172 in Saffron Walden on the main highstreet outside cost cutter at the traffic lights. Car looked nice, made a good sound when you pulled away:D
Had my 1.6 clio about 6 monthsish now, and when I first got it being 18 none of my mates bar a couple with zetec s and vtr had a car with any poke in it so was feeling pretty damn good!
Anyways, my mates just picked up one of those 2.4 litre 20 valve fiat stilos! God Damn heared powerful...
Hello,
How much does it cost for a garage to fit a set of springs to ur car approximatley.
I plan to get a set of springs and dampers soon, and was wondering how much this would cost to fit?
Cheers
How do you get the rear bench out of the mk2 ph2, i've pulled the seats forward, then each side you can half pull them out. There is a bolt in the middle do you need 2 undo that to get the rest of it out?
Any ideas? Step by step guide would be helpful lol:rolleyes:
Been on the fith gear website 2day, and its got a big section on it about optimax, basically is it a con or does it do anything. Anyway they did a road test on a 1.4 clio - made no difference Golf GTI gave it bout 5 or 10 bhp and a Scooby gave it 15 bhp.
Opinions any1?
Just been on this website, and through there performance calculator, it worked out if my car weighed the same as a vtr it would be over a second faster to 60, and alot faster to 100.
As this is the case......any advice on shedding some weight from my car? Obvious is rear seats etc.....
Been looking at this kit on k-tec the one with dampers. Price is 240? Is this worth it, the kit looks good 2 me as it lowers the car 35mm which is all I want.
Cheers Tom
Hello,
Already know the answer to this one, but how much faster is the 172 that a 1.6 16v? Are we talking a 1.6 would easily be beat, or would the 172 have to give it some to convincingly beat it?
Cheers
Hi,
Think I am being an idiot but here goes....
Been looking at the suspension kits on k-tec, but I dont understand the whole 58mm whole spacing? I jacked my car up earlier and didnt understand, I think im being a numpty but can anyone tell me what I am meant to be measuring and where to...
Hi,
I think im being a bit of an idiot, but I have been looking at the ultimate suspension kit from k-tec http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=1869 and I just cant figure out if my car will fit this kit? I don't get the whole 58mm spacing bit? I dunno if anyone can help, my clio is...
Hello,
Just been on the k-tech website having a look at there suspension. Does anyone have pics of a clio dynamique lowered before and after so I know what it will look like please?
Also not sure whether to drop my car by 20mm with just springs off k-tec, or buy the 30m drop spax set with...
Hello,
Recently fitted my KandN57i to my 1.6 16v clio, and although the note it adds at high revs is nice, I don't think it has improved performance. I want to get a cold air feed to it to help it, but its pretty tight under my bonnet, and cant see anywhere to feed it, does any1 have any...
Hello,
Is there anyway to change the limits on your rev range? In my 1.6 Clio it limits very low (in comparison to other gears) is there any way this can be altered?
Cheers
Tom
Been looking at the k-tec website and they have got ecotek valves on there. Are these things any good? Do they actually do what they say they do, or are they like other cheaper mods they claim to do alot but do very little?
Cheers
Tom
Hello,
Just read a thread about Clio 1.6 16v 0-0 times and it being claimed to be 7.2 seconds, but everywhere I have read clio 1.6 0-60 is 9.6 or around that mark.
Its weird thought, how do vts / polo gti / lupo gti / 106 gti run closer to 8 seconds? And have around 15bhp more from there...
Hello,
Recently bought myself a 2003 1.6 16v Renault Clio Dynamique 20k on the clock for 5 grand.
Got a few questions about it.....
How does this car compare to other cars in its range, i.e zetec s, vtr etc...
Also does anyone have any advice on performance modifications to get a few...
