    Clio 2 remote central locking

    Im sure someone will have been here before! Got a MK2 PH1 1.2 16v, remote central locking has never worked, both red lights on the keys work fine when pressed, new battery's fitted. Car locks and unlocks fine with the button inside the car and the RAID system. Where is the receiver situated...

    2.0 MK3 Clio GT

    There is a rare old beast for you... I don't believe they were ever available in the UK in 5door/2.0 - I did see some in Europe back when I had mine though. -this one is RHD though...

    Where's the go to place for 172/182 injectors these days?

    I remember a while back there was somewhere everyone was getting genuine Magneti Marelli injectors from for a reasonable price. Is this still the case? Just checked autodoc and £220 for 4 currently. I see you can get a set of 4 generic ones for around £100 mark but unless there is any known...

    Engine noise at certain RPM

    Here's one for the gurus, it's got me stumped!! Car is a 2001 1.2 16v sport, it's developed a new noise, it sounds like a very bad wheel bearing but it only does it at 4300rpm! Sounds perfect under that and disappears around 4500rpm. Now before everyone thinks I'm a mad chav ragging about a...

    DCI 100 rear handbrake cables

    Had a search but can't find anything, is there a known brand/part number for pattern part items? I remember the hassle I had years ago with mine when I needed one. Got a rear setup for my RSI to fit and need a pair of cables!

    Fuel lines/ return etc

    Bit of an odd one here. I'm converting an old ph1 1.2 8v over to 1.6 16v. -Both cars are mk2 PH1, but the 1.2 is a very early car, the 1.6 a very late car. -The 1.2 has a fuel return line, so has 3 lines running under the car (fuel, return and i assume tank vent from the carbon canister?) -...

    197 wandering about on the road - SOLVED!

    Thought this was worth posting this just because I've never seen a lot of people mention it before. I've slowly been refreshing my 197 over the last year, I stuck new genuine 200 cup dampers and springs on it, changed all the ARB bushes, put a pair of drop links on it, and a set of pilot sport...

    197/200 Electric power steering controller

    I see on the RSTuner website you can buy the licence for the mk3 clio to read the EPS controller and configure it etc. The website states: Can this also be calibrated via Clip? - Reason I ask is my 197 non cup has been converted to full 200 cup spec and I didn't realise the EPS had a...

    197 Wipers intermittently stop working

    Bit stumped with this one guys, wipers work as they should when they are working, no sign of any bent or sticky linkage - happens no matter if the windscreen is wet or dry (which rules out drag on the blades overloading a weak motor?) Suddenly the wipers will just stop either at the fully...

    Martins Albi Clio 200 Tidy up project

    Bought this a few months ago with the intention of building a Meglio - It was an excellent base, FF with Cup pack, straight shell, bodywork and wheels in need of TLC and service history lost! But then I left my last job so decided to tidy it up and shift it on and free up the cash, so that's...

    This is driving me mad!! my ph1 came with a cone filter so I've sourced and fitted a ph1 airbox for it. Now the new airbox came with the cold air feed which i realised id most likely need to remove the bumper to fit, so fast forward a few months i now have the bumper off and i cant for the life...

    197 Crankshaft oil seal - Timing end

    Just finishing up on my 197 cambelt change, I had to use a bit of heat to remove the crank sprocket so am replacing the crankshaft oil seal. Now I believe this has probably never been done on this engine, but when I removed the plate that the seal goes into (not sure what its called?!) to get a...

    197 Cambelt swap question

    In the middle of my first F4R Cambelt, and I'm positive I read someone on here a while back (@Brigsy comes to mind?!) saying they go OVER the torque setting for the dephaser and exhaust cam nuts. I've had a search and cant find anything so I'm now doubting myself :ROFLMAO:

    PH1 172 wont start...

    My ph1 172 has developed a starting issue. When I put the key in turn it on, everything lights up as it should, immobiliser light goes out as it should, turn it to start and nothing happens, not even a click like you get with a flat battery or dodgy earth. I've confirmed the battery is good...

    197/200 Supercharger conversion

    Anyone running a supercharger conversion on a mk3? I had a poke around the ex supreme motorsport demo car a few weeks back and I've always fancied a supercharged car. The owner was saying he was currently taking supreme to court as it wasn't running right and they couldn't fix it but I see K-Tec...

    FFS.... spotted it on eBay with 20 seconds to go, a quick read of the description and a bid in with a few secs to go and it was mine for £3k, was that a good price? I'm sure the next few days/weeks/months will clarify that!! eBay ad pics... Picked it up on Sunday, my 3 concerns were the 3x...

    MK2 PH1 1.2 8v Clio Grande - Tidy up project

    Guy was buying a Hyundai i30 at work that we had up for sale. He wondered if we would give him anything for his Clio to save him the hassle of scrapping it.... we gave him £350 off the Hyundai for it, after a brief look round it I gave my boss £300 and it was mine! Someone came in looking for a...

    Looking to replace my lower arms on the 182 van, when I built it I fitted powerflex black bushes to the arms with new lemforder ball joints but TBH im not a fan of the powerflex bushes, while it does handle well, the ride is a bit harsher than id like, I'm getting creaking from them and I'm not...

    MK5 Clio

    Wife picked this up yesterday, really impressed with it, interior is a massive step up from the previous mk4 she had and the 1.5 DCi drives brilliant so far doing 60mpg, compared to the 34mpg of the old 0.9 TCE which was the worst engine I've ever experienced !
