Thanks for the advice, espically so late on. Once its up on the ramps tommorow Ill be having a good hoak around it. Have a small bucket under it now collecting the oil. Bit of a stupid question but what is the drive shaft boot? My clio is falling apart on me, parts missing and others...

Now that you mention it, there is a whine when I accelerate and revs go to around 3,000 you here a loudish whine like its the fly wheel spinnin around. There is quite a bit comming out, your talking a puddle bigger than a dinner plate. Im just waiting for the thing to seize and a £1000 bill...

LOL....not the only one on at this time Na its a 5 Speed + Rev 1.5 DCI 65

The sorry saga started last week, went to reverse but for some reason I could not get reverse gear at all. Ended up me pushing the car backwards myself, anyway hopped back in and went for 1st but it didnt work either:S It really was like someone stole them out of my gearbox. This continued for...

Im lookin to do my oil change tommorow and was just about to ask the question on carrying out the change on a DCI engine. Bit confused now, do or do I not have to remove the engine protection plate under the car I think Ive got everything: New Oil Filter Steel (I Think) sump plug washer...

My new struts arrived today so that to those who gave me a link to the website. Havent got the car at the moment but just wondering how you get the old struts off and new ones on. Thanks:)

Aww now u tell me, lol, just ordered them :(

Bump...:bump: Anyone confirm those 2 things will do the job?

Thanks got them now, r they easily fitted?

Thats funny, Could have sworn I put a thread up about this earlier but its disappeared. I know its a topic covered many times, but wont keep you long, I am just looking for the link to RS Components which contains the correct boot struts for the clio as ive got a V6 Spoiler now. Thanks;)

I had loads around my car, one 50p sized one on the boot, they really p****d me off so I got out DentAway, quality work just youll pay for it.

Would these here allow me to still have the display as well as steering controls? My headunit is an Alpine CDA-9812RB Clicky 1 Clicky 2 Thanks again

Thanks for the help, so that will defo display stuff (even just the new HU manufacture) on the existing clio display as well as let me use the existing steering controls. Been looking around ages for them

You could try this site: CLICKY Ive just got an alpine headunit and trying to get the controls which allow the existing clio display to work along with the steering controls, if anyone can help. HiJacking threat sorry ;)

Thanks for the help, will attempt this oil change on monday. :D

Thanks for the help, Im sure Ill find the sump plug somewhere, knowing my luck it would probably be the gear box though, lol :) Just wondering as well how akward it is to replace the oil filter and where it is located. Also, roughly how much oil do people throw in when filling up. Thanks

Right, decided to go for the shell 5W 40 oil, only have a few questions: 1. As the car is on 90k should I do an engine flush? I have some Forte stuff I bought a few months ago but never used. 2. Is the Sump Plug still 8mm in the dci clio's? 3. Where exactly is the sump located in the dci...

LOL.......pimp my ride hits ireland, everyone has their own tastes, that just aint one of mine. You really should have read the thread put up here not so long ago how someone really regreted spendin money on all that paper mache. :)

LOL...Ive been found out, Im buyin it off him on Sunday. Just want to find out what all can be hooked up. Eg; Will the screen he has display the radio station im on, also, will I still get the outside temp displayed as well. Think he said to me it wont display the radio station name, but just...

Do you by any change get a really rough sound that starts at about 3k in your clio by any chance. Mine is becoming really bad and its very tappety when little throttle is applied. Cheers

What do you expect for 65bhp, its designed for general commuting not raking around. I like my clio, has been reliable for 90k now with no probs, only startin to sound a little rough now. I havent noticed any difference between the ride in a petrol clio or a dci either. I know for a fact as...

Would that chip be safe and easy enough to fit to my motor then:)

Thanks for the advice, ive already changed the springs and shocks to eibach proline so no need to worry about those, lol, however its very odd how i posted up this question and then today my steering column has started to squeek loads more and make a clunk noise while turning. Will take u up...

Thanks for the help. The next question I had was chipping the motor, ive seen ones like this: CLICK ME HERE Dont know whether or not to trust them, some people have had their engine screwed by them. Also, does it not put more strain on engine components as well as the clutch and drive...

Ive recently purchased this for my clio: The image shows an aftermarket headunit but my motors got a standard clio cd headunit which I have connected an IPod socket to using the CD Multidisk socket. The screen isnt a satnav but a TV, will I be able to hook this up to the standard headunit...

Is there another service at 90k,feels like only yesterday I was in for the 70k.lol:D may get it booked in for another service and get them to check the turbo and fit new brakes, etc. Thats a good point I forgot to mention my engine is starting to smoke, its going like the VAG Diesels when...

Just wondering if any of you could help, got a clio dci and its hittin 90k and its recently began to sound rough, basically as bad as a tractor. The other day I was driving, and when im in the torque band and I put the foot down a bit the engine sounds reallyyyyyyy rough, turbo sounds like its...

Yea I think its my colour, thought I would need it sprayed but the guy who had it before me bought it direct from renault, he then had it sprayed black, which looks the same as my own. If its not Ill get it sprayed as the car is goin in next monday for a load of work, stupid bodyshop before...

Now that ive got my engine stopping problem sorted (i hope) im looking to get a few things changed in my 65 dci clio could someone recommend: 1. Good Oil 2. Good Glow Plugs And anything else to help make my motor run smoother, its starting to sound really tappety lately. Also, anyone got a...

I spent months waiting for one to pop along on ebay, there so hard to get hold of. Ended up getting a 172 spoiler for a while to get rid of that plastic tat. Look awful, dont know why renault ever bothered putting them on the clio
