I'm seeing a local mechanic tomorrow and will try some new plugs and all the other connections its weird though it only happens at high speed and especially with the overheating warning light coming on with stop light, thankfully though i don't think its a serious issue as theres no obvious...

Is it safe to drive the car like this? I'm not having any actual problems with the car itself its starting and running fine except for the high speed misfire and the revs go back to normal and it seems to drive normal with the stop lights on. I've checked the coolant bottle and its right on the...

Yeah not to long ago i had a few problems and took it to a local garage can't remember exactly what was changed but he did do the coil packs, also remember taking it to a garage a few months ago and the mechanic there said my plugs were worn out but they weren't completely gone, can't remember...

After spending a ton a few months ago to fix my clio yet another problem props up. Basically if i drive around then go over 65 or so the engine .. misfires and i lose power for a second and the revs go back to normal i've managed to reproduce it twice now but both times i haven't tried going...

Took it to the garage yesterday and it came back with 0 fault codes but it was actually driving ok so thought nothing of it. This morning though it was a no starter, engine turned but it didn't fire. :( Reckon the coil packs gone or as the mechanic told me my plugs are really worn and they've...

Right, checked it this morning exact same problem, gearbox is juddering and i'm losing power going through the gears without giving it some flooring. Going to get it on a computer hopefully tomorrow if not wednesday don't think TDC shows on the computers so will probably get it replaced anyway...

Just drove into work this morning with zero problems in heavy rain and parked up, finished work 5 hours later got back in the car started it up with no problems again but the gearbox felt like it was juddering @ idle. I was a little worried but because of the weather and i wanted to get home and...

Well mostly performance but since its a 1.2 doubt i can get much saw a few cheap ones around so can't hurt just wondering if theres anything noticeable.

Worth it or not?

jealous. :P

Although its quite remote from past experience if you have someone learning to drive in your car and want to take their test in it, or if your a driving instructor its VERY important you get the bonnet checked out as the car won't be allowed out on the driving test without a signed letter from...

The 1st gear jerk stuff is pretty normal, i reverse out of the drive with the revs completely unstable, goes fine after a few minutes just gotta give it time to warm up and the choke to kick in. If you rev it a little in neutral when you start up then let the revs settle just below the 1k RPM...

Could be anything mate, i noticed on mine when i was messing with revs with the bonnet open that if you quickly throttle but only a little you can hear a whoosh noise, get someone to stand outside and see if they can hear it otherwise it could be anything. My sunroof and steering wheel covers...
