    Servicing in Manchester

    Hmm... Too far away. Actually, it's the most un-ideal place for me. Right in between the home - Manchester and work - Birmingham.

    Wierd vibrating when turning left...

    It won't be the wheel nuts because I've changed a tyre since I first heard it and it still does it. Wheel bearings could be a poss though. Can I check them myself?

    Wierd vibrating when turning left...

    When I turn left fairly "enthusiastically" over about 30mph I get a buzzing/vibrating sound from what sounds to be under the car towards the front left side of the car. It's definitely not the wheel rubbing. It's been doing this for ages. Dealer couldn't see anything (ie It's not the tyre...

    Fifth Gear - Williams 001 Vs. Clio 197

    Jason Plato - Touring car champion 2001 and currently 3rd in this years championship. Tiff Needell - 14 times Le Mans, endless other races and a couple of F1 races thrown in. Not only have they driven more cars than you could probably name, I think their history qualifies them as "proper...

    197. Not impressed.

    I had this for a week when it was released a few weeks ago which including a blast around Castle Coombe. I've got the 172 and was really looking forward to driving it. Overall, I wasn't half as impressed as I'd hoped to be. The first thing that I didn't like was the speed sensitive steering...

    Clutch biting point

    I think it's more a clutch cable adjustment... Anyone know how to do that?

    Clutch biting point

    On mine (it might be the same with most Clio's) the biting point is allll the way up at the top, so in other words, to engage the gear when you've pressed it down you've got to release the clutch nearly to the top before the gear kicks in. It's just a bit annoying. Would prefer the biting...

    182 (05) alarm question??

    Somewhere (can't remember where though) there is a guide to say what the combination of flashes and beeps are for. It's to tell you what exactly was the problem and why the alarm went off/didn't set right.

    my new wheels

    There might be as well. I just noticed one on the drivers door too which I've not got on mine. Someone has answered the question though, they had them on the older models :cool:

    What does the auxiliary belt do? do you really need it changing?

    Well... whilst I'm here, shall I scrap off the Renault 36K (or 35, can't remember) service and do it myself or get a smaller garage to do it?

    What does the auxiliary belt do? do you really need it changing?

    That's what I thought. Balls to paying £200+ for Renault to fit one!!!

    What does the auxiliary belt do? do you really need it changing?

    I'm not paying £200 for some monkey to change a belt. Do you really need them changing? What is it for? What happens if they snap? Ta :D
