Hi, im struggling to find where the pollen filter goes, ive searched on here but cant find an answer. Its a 1.2 clio 2005, ive had a look under the scuttle panel but theres just a big empty hole there. It doesnt seem to be in the foot wells either, any help would be appreciated thanks.

As title, the end spark plug seems to be stuck because the piece of rubber on the end of the coil lead/stick has come of and got stuck around the spark plug which then seems to have melted, deep hole so its hard to tell, any ideas on how I can get the plug and rubber out?

Should 1.2 16v not have ngk spark plugs? Also how do you clean the throttle body?

I know this is a old topic but thought it would be better to comment here rather than open a new thread.. I need to change spark plugs on my clio 1.2 16v, but im not sure which are the right plugs? Its a 2005, 05 plate, when im searching for plugs some come up as 01-05 and then 01-07 and they...

Has a look at it, yeah it is that peice that needs changing. Seems as if the rubber bit on the bottom has come of making the bar loose and bang while driving. Looking at these to on eurocarparts...

Does the link come with the washer? Oh i was planning on having a shot at my self looked simple enough, sounds like it isnt

So is that simple as just putting the bar back on with a washer?

Yeah thats what i was looking at. Is the arb the bar thats hanging off?

I thought that too, but when i type it into euro car parts, the pictures is of something else, what the bar connects/is screwed on to. Would it be that part that needs replacing?
