So the Clio is long over due for an oil change... Took her to a local garage and put her up on the ramp. Had a look at the sump plug and it would seem that some grease monkey has over tightened it without using the proper tool. The female square insert (8mm iirc) is completely burred, stripped...

Does anyone have a key / diagram for relays on a non-sport ph2?
Here's a pic (similar but not identical to my Clio)...
I think one the thin brown relays is causing starting problems.
I know I can swap them around & try to narrow it down by process of elimination but it would be very...
My Clio has the ph2 K4J (1.4 16V) engine & the engine oil dipstick is very low down in the engine bay with a tiny (stubby) handle!
I can't get my hand down far enough to reach the dipstick, to check the level / condition of the oil. I know the service menu display says "oil ok" but I prefer to...
So, one of plastic rivets has popped out from the top of my front grill (mk2 ph2) causing the bonnet catch spring to get caught on the grill when I open the bonnet. The whole grill has moved back towards the engine bay & won't push into place.
I need to remove the grill & replace it.. but...
Had a few problems starting the Clio, so I'm in the process of trying to find out what's wrong..
Here's the thread..
Urgent help needed! Immobilizer issue?
One of the things I've already checked is the dashboard service menu (press and hold the ADAC button on the end of the wiper stalk &...
So when my missus when to start the Clio to rtn home from work late last night, the car
wouldn't start.
Ignition ON, immob light goes from flashing to steady red, then extinguishes, turn the key
& starter motor engages briefly (about 1 second) possibly a minor crank of the engine but
nothing...
Question about the Clio II Chassis / floor pan..
On the rear door sill (both sides) there is factory seam or weld, presumably where the boot floor pan joins with the main floor pan (I think). Mine is a 5 door so I don't know if this is the same on a 3 door model.
I noticed that the weld or...
This worked on my Mk2 Ph2 manual tilt only sunroof, so I thought I'd share it for anyone with the same problem.
So, my sunroof was making a lot of noise (rattling) when closed..
I discovered by chance, following a complete strip down (also had a leak) that the 4x T20 torx srews (2 that hold...
Discovered a puddle of water in the passenger footwell (right hand side, nearest to centre console) ... I'ts been raining quite heavily for the past 48hrs and I know that there's water coming in from the sunroof seal because the headlining is damp on the driver & pass side. Saw this quote from...
I'm going to respray my engine cover (see pic).. So I'll need to get replacement decals made up. I want to keep it original and use the correct font / pitch. Not too worried about the 'Renault' lettering because that'll be a TM font but need to know the closest windows font to use for the '1.4L'...

I need to tighten up the bolts that secure the boot lock button housing.. Is it fairly easy to remove the plastic trim panel inside the boot to gain access or is it tricky? I don't want to snap any clips etc. Thanks

I was reading an article saying that later Clio's (I assume they mean post-2001) have the VIN number in 3 locations: 1). On the offside drivers door pillar in a sticker format. 2). Viewed through the nearside base of the front windscreen. 3). Located in the boot on the right side under the...
Is there a guide on here for handbrake adjustment? If not, can anyone let me know if it's a straight forward diy job or a garage job? Hoping there may be a centre cable adjustment nut before the cable splits off to each wheel.. thanks!
Bought the Clio (Mk2 Ph2) just over 3 weeks ago… 1.4 16v (K4J) engine, 4-Speed (DP0) transmission, trim level ‘Expression’…
Work done so far:
Full valet inside & out. Including upholstery, dash & door cards.
New wheel trims with Renault centre cap decals (OE 14“ steel rims).

My glove box cover is hinged on two plastic arms & I need to remove it (not the whole glove box) so I can replace the handle. Don't want to risk snapping the two plastic arms, but not sure how to safely release the cover (door) from the glove box?
Been told by my mechanic that I need to replace the n/s/f link arm... Need to order the part but not sure if he means 'inner track rod'? Are they the same thing? thanks...
So, I'm a complete Clio novice and don't have the original owners handbook for the car. Haven't picked up a Haynes manual yet and need to solve a few issues.
Most importantly the horn has packed up! Secondly the windscreen washer pump isn't working and lastly the cigarette lighter socket.
I'm...
My Clio is a 1.4 (1390cc) 16v ... Log book says first use 22/10/2003 .. I've seen loads of engine codes on the forum i.e. F4R - F7P - 197 -172 - F7R - 182 - 255 etc. Haven't got a clue what they mean!? Does anyone know the correct code for my Clio? Thanks in advance, Steve
Just dropping in to say hi.. First post on the forum & Just bought a Renault Clio a couple of days ago! Experienced driver but new to Renault and previously owned mostly Jap / German motors. Love the Clio.. very good condition and no major problems. Some teething problems & electrical gremlins...
