mega bump. But is the is the aux belt tensioner tool required? https://www.machinemart.co.uk/p/auxiliary-belt-tool/

The revs on my car will slowly increase if it left to idle. They start at 1k as normal, but then the revs slowly increase with no throttle input. if left I'm sure they would have carried on to the limiter, but i turned it off at 3k every time. Prior to this today on the drive home the car cut...

Good morning! Unusual to see anther Phase 1 out on the road, only about the 3rd I've seen. I would love a Sunflower they look brilliant.

It turns out the garage's diagnosis was correct, the master cylinder is leaking and the servo wasn't 'not working' however their fix, which included the servo removal maybey wasn't. I asked my girlfriend's dad who is a mechanic and he spoke to his mate who is a Renault specialist, who advised...

I posted the other day that my brake pedal had gone rock hard and couldn't be depressed. it was intermittent and didn't do it every time I braked. I took the car to a garage. They have advised the master cylinder has leaked, damaged the brake servo and both need replacing. If they do, I will...

I've had nakang ns2's when I've purchased a new car, they were rubbish. I've had Toyo T1R's they were okay, soft but not very good in the wet. I've had Uniroyal Rainsports 2 and 3 and they were decent. Great in the wet, cheap in 15". The only real downside is they aren't the hardest...

Can anybody assist?

Yesterday, whilst driving along the brake pedal suddenly became very stiff and I lost most stopping power, which was quite scary. Anyway after a little search, it sounds like this guide will fix my issue. http://www.cliosport.net/threads/brake-vacuum-issues.545615/#post-7251178 However, the...

Hi all, I recently took my car out just after it had rained heavily and the roads were still wet. After about 1/2 a mile the car started to hesitate and then cut out. It restarted immediately. I decided to head back home at the next roundabout. It cut out a further 3 times on the way home. A...

It looks fantastic. I sold mine last year and still wish I had it every time I drive.

Enjoying being back in a phase 1. It needs 4 wheels refurbished and the bonnet/bumper could do with being repainted, but I am pleased with it overall.

I bloody loved mine, although I've only ever been in a Vee with one, so I've got no idea what it sounded like as standard.

It's not going to be a cheap visit to the garage is it. That's what I had feared. A clucth replacement is around £480 and a belt/dephaser replacement is £500. Good thing I get my redundancy payout on Friday.

Main leak is suspected to be the rear main oil seal. They also said there was a very slight leak from the camshaft and they think the gearbox input shaft. They suggested trying a sealant to rejuvenate any leaking seals in the short term but I personally I would like to get them fixed. I...

Demand Engineering Ltd Lewis Farm Pettaugh Road Stonham Aspal Stowmarket Suffolk IP14 6AU I think they charged be £550.00 for a double back box and a reworking of existing collector box. They cut the ends off the old collector box and fitted 2 new packed ends and then ran the pipe work down to...

@MrBlonde Demand Engineering A little bit further, but they are really good chaps and make lovely exhausts too. They made a exhaust for me when I had my clio V6 from the top cat back. http://xorst.co.uk/

Looks super. I particularly like the grinning air freshener, it looks like it is having fun.

Always good to have an excuse to go out for a quick drive in a V6

My phone reset every time I tried to to take a photo, so only have this!

I haven't,It is currently stuck at the side of the road. It cut out suddenly about 1 mile up the road from where I started

It is a Phase 1 Clio 172 if that makes any difference.

I was driving along when the engine cut out. I coasted and pulled up. Now the battery warning light on the dash is illuminated and the car won't start. It will turn over. Any suggestions?

Facebook? I didn't think to check there for a car, I shall have a look.

I'm still looking for a PH1. Most are a bit broken or 400+ miles away.

When I turn my headlights on, the drivers side xenon flicks on momentarily and then turns off. The passenger side comes on and stays on. Does anybody have any suggestions? I tried searching but couldn't find anything like described above. Thank you.

Carlisle to Poole is a very long way to get there and find it doesn't work. It was a car I'd seen on eBay, if it had been closer i'd have gone to see it, glad I didn't make the trip! I've been looking for 2 weeks on ebay, here, gumtree, autotrader, pistonheads and in that time just 2 non silver...

I don't think the picture of you new car is working?

I'm sorry to hear of your family's loss, my thoughts go out to you and you family.

What colour are the wheels on the 182? Both cars looks superb, I miss my Vee :(

Nothing ever in either on my 172s. However, when I had a Clio V6 it was the opposite, people would regularly wander over for a chat, coming out of Tesco to see people taking photos of it and on one occasion posing with the car for pictures (caught on camera). It wasn't just your typical younger...
