    Front tyres wearing fast, drivers side knocking when doing +70.

    Alright chaps, Clio's run fine for ages now, but lately its been abit crap. I've been doing a fair bit of motorway driving this week, and i noticed that when i go above 70, something on my drivers side is knocking. Personally i think it could be the driveshaft, but i wanted a few more opinions...

    Engine Misfiring?

    I've just sat in t'car after being at work all day, and when i started it up it was really juddery, even before i set off. When driving home, it sounded like a combination of the engine misfiring, or exhaust blowing. My exhaust is fine, no holes or weak parts. It did it a couple of months ago...

    When someone opens a door into your car, whilst sitting in it...

    What do you do? I've just been to McDonalds, and whilst i was sat munching a delicious McChicken sandwich, this old codger pulls up next to me. He then reverses and pulls abit closer. Our lass said to me "No door left for you then.." And with that, the absolute moron opens his door into my...

    Noob question.

    Where does power steering fluid go in a 1.2 16v 03 plate Clio, without air-con? Mong question, but i don't have a clue, and i could do with knowing.

    Very very annoying squeak/mouse sound and a few others.

    Alright chaps. 1st problem is a squeak i get when i accelerate. I'm guessing this is my fan belt, so that's gonna get changed in due time. Unless anyone else knows otherwise? 03 car - 55k miles, unknown service history. (Naivety of youth) 2nd, yet main problem is a squeaking noise i get when...

    One problem to another...

    After a few weeks of "Woooooooooom" at 40mph, and a few suggesting a wheel bearing problem i ordered the part. However, today after i'd finished college forever and was on the final KFC dinner; when setting off back to college, something snapped. It was a horroble noise. Every revolution of...

    Tesco Extra Chesterfield. Surrounded by Chavs.

    A Blue 1.2 Mk2 Ph1 with a MASSIVE Renault Sport sticker on either back window. Gold Alloys. :dead: (Bar one Steelie) No colour coding. No style. Halfrauds lights + Ripspeed wipers. Dutty **** passenger. I really wanted to get out and take a dump on the bonnet, however i feel this would have...

    Few questions regarding wheel bearings.

    Erm, i've kinda come to the conclusion the awful droning noise i can hear when driving above 50 is a wheel bearing problem. Done a bit of research into it and apparently its one of the symptoms. So here i am: 1. What happens if i don't get it fixed sharpish? 2. How much is it to fix? 3. How...

    quick clean

    http://i1126.photobucket.com/albums/l620/DrewMcRAVE/IMG_0375.jpg Just been for a 'value' car wash, at Tesco, and it was a bag of s**t. £2.50 though, so dunno what i expected... It didn't even clean my wheels properly, so i gave them a good go over when i got home. Which turned into a full car...

    Opinions on aerials.

    Mine's buggered. The housing for the tip to go into snapped off in the snow and crap weather. So now i'm left aerial and signal-less for my radio. (How i miss capital FM. Or GALAXY!) Been looking at getting a new one, and was unsure about replacing it, but iirc i need a 23mm socket to get it...

    Brake Light Out.

    Hi, Read a couple of threads about brake lights been out, with rear lights still working, and i understand the bulb is a dual filament one. Most answers have been simply to change it, i have and it still ain't having it. My passenger brake light stopped working yesterday i think, (some nice...

    Exhaust options.

    Hi guys. Gonna start looking into getting a new exhaust to get rid of the rocket engine that was attached to the back of mine when i bought it. Car is 1.2, unsure of my options, as most threads are about 172/182 exhausts and i'm not sure what'll fit or whats available for my car. Thats where i...

    Exhaust drone got louder since i put new tyres on.

    When i bought my car, it came with the fattest, chubby exhaust ever. Its disgusting. I've just not really had enough money to change it yet. Its not that loud, but loud enough. I've recently had the sport alloys refurbed and put new tyres on, which are like a dream. However, when tramming down...

    Side skirts.

    Do they fit non-sports, or do i need replica's? Had a very good offer for 2 1*2 side skirts, but obviously i don't wanna buy em if they're not gonna fit. Whereas i've also had a decentish offer for two replica ones, which i know will fit, but may aswell have the others if they're cheaper? I know...

    Can't find my TDC sensor.

    I know what it looks like and where it should be, i just can't find it. :/ Car's misfiring odd time, and i thought i'd take it off and give it a clean cause it'd doing my head in. Took airbox off, and i can't see it. Can anyone put me a few pics/video's up of how to do it? Be much appreciated.

    Squeaking noise when i lift my foot up off the brake?

    Thought at first it was grease/grime on the discs/pads but when painting my callipers i gave them a good clean and the noise is still there. Its not there when i initially press the brake down, but more when i lift it back up. It's kinda lead me to think it could be a suspension squeak? As the...

    Another Limp Mode...

    Hi guys, before you say "read other threads", i've read a few, and got bored as they seemed unrelated, as this seems more of an electrical problem rather than car problem. I've been using an unofficial iPod cable for 2 days, as my other one disintegrated. Its fine, if not more practical. On the...

    Black 10 plate non-sport. Massive ClioSport sticker on the back window. Barlborough.

    Bird always calls me stupid when i point out a cliosport sticker on someone's car. She'll appreciate it more when she's no longer a bus wanker. ;) Anyway. It was a '10 plate non-sport as far as i know. (Not too familiar with the newer shape ones) Didn't have the rear diffuser on, but had a...
