Hi No warning lights on and i have checked with clip in case, i do think now the spare strut i fitted, had a pretty worn strut top as i found another one today and it was a lot tighter when turned and not loose !

I think its marginally heavier than some of my other clios, I didnt feel any tight spots when i i turned the steering wheel with the track rod ends disconected, but if i drive the car you do have to correct the steering till its straight then it stays straight, I am now wondering if the pas...

I am still trying to gey my clio an mot but the air bag light is still coming on, is it possible to check side air bag sensor i suspect the seats may have fired at some point.
