Hi everyone, a very old member signing back in for some help (sold my 172 Cup in 2005). My Mrs has a Clio and it's developed a strange starter motor issue. You turn the key and I just hear a click, but no starter motor sound follows. After 3 or 4 goes, it starts normally and everything is fine...

xx CUP numberplate. Had a ClioSport sticker.

Hi all, Parked my Cup at my local gym today at about 4:30 pm like I do four times a week, every week. Half way through my workout, "Member anouncement, would the owner of a blue Renault Clio, registration LX..." Im already running to reception! One of the fitness instructors takes me to my...

Heres what you do: Go to the dealer and let them tell you about how special this model is. Listen to what they have to say and pay perticular attention to anything like, "Theyre only building 500 of these...", "special edition" and, "Theres no way we can discount these as they are in such...

...I have acquired the 4k rattle. Is there really no fix for it because it sounds hideous! I have searched through previous threads and I will not accept that it cannot be fixed from Renault. If some people can fix it themselves then Renault have no excuses. If they plead total ignorance to...

Hi guys, Im thinking of selling the Cup and replacing it. 8,000 miles Almost exactly a year old (52 reg) 2 years of factory warranty left R-Sport ECU Otherwise standard How much should I be asking for? I was thinking somewhere in the region of £10,000?

Has anyone installed an amplifier under the passenger seat of a 2001+ Clio yet? Im tempted to do it on mine and cant see any immediate problems but thought Id check if anyone here had done it and had any problems first. The amp is a Kenwood 4 channel which Im planning to use to power the...

Hi everyone. I while back when I had to remove my dashboard on my Cup I found the ClioSport article really useful, so I have decided to do the same sort of thing for anyone fitting an R-Sport (or similar) ECU. Have a look here...

Hi guys and girls, I have a slow punchure in one of my ContiSports, but the tread is starting to wear a little anyway so dont mind replacing them all. I think that Goodyear Eagle F1s might be a good choice based on a few independant tyre tests, but have any of you got any good experiences...

My parents, brother, and myself all went to test drive a Noble M12 GTO3 yesterday and its looking probable that my parents will get one. The car is simply amazing. It looks better than any car I have ever seen in real life, sounds superb, goes like stink, and the guy who took us out went...

Hi Guys/Girls, For the last few days a knocking sound has been evident under hard acceleration. Yesterday I was illustrating this to a couple of mates on my way to see the Matrix 2, and the car all of a sudden broke! The steering became really heavy (as if the power assistance was working...

Could anyone tell me which colour cable goes to + and which goes to - on the new Clios please. I need to know both the front and rear + and - colours for both sides as Im in a bit of a phase muddle. Thanks in advance.

Hi Guys and Girls, When I got my Cup back in September, I changed the sound system within about a week. Sony MP70 head unit (4x52 rms) Kenwood components up front (dashboard-off job) Alpine 3-ways at the rear Now my mate has just purchased a Clio and I was out in it last night, and...

Hello all, Have any of you fellow Cup owners heard a grinding noise during hard (and I mean hard) cornering to the left? It sounds like its coming from the rear nearside wheel. Any ideas? My dad has suggested CV joints.

Had the R Sport ECU fitted today. I was expecting little improvements here and there, but the results are much better than expected. The car is really strong when pulling away (even just driving in traffic) and you dont have to rev the car loads just to get it moving now like you did before...

I got my cup back in September. It has orange side repeaters. My mate has just got an 03 reg Cup and he has clear side repeaters. How cheated do I feel - LOL! Anyone else have clear side repeaters as standard?

Hello all, Ive had my cup for a while now but only done 3,800 miles in it. My front tyres are nearly worn through! I took it to have the tracking checked and its spot on. I do drive the car hard (its rude not to), but Id expect a little more life from them than that. The rears are almost...

Ive spoken to R-Sport a few times and they seem very nice and enthusiastic. I was actually the one who did all of the original ECU investigation, but decided only to tell a select few people (i.e. Cupsize) and not make a public post until I Knew for sure what was going on. I decided this...

Hi everyone, Does anyone have a diagram of how to remove the dash in a 172 Cup (not that I think it would be any different from a normal 172). Looked at the previous posts and worked out i need to remove: 3 screws along windscreen 2 screws at ends of dash 3 screws under steering wheel...

Every picture of the car I have seen has a black front splitter, but mine doesnt. Anyone else got one? Its a UK car if that makes any difference. Cheers - Laurence.

...and was it worth the wait? HELL YEA! Im sticking to 3000 rpm until it has a few miles under its wheels, but its still great fun to drive, because it starts pulling really hard at just above 2k. One other thing you notice it the admiring glances you get ;)
