Been advised by the garage Daniel. Changed lamba sensor, plugs, plugs, coilpacks, leads, cps. Misfire has swapped from cyl 3 to cyl 2. So he thinks its between failed on the join. Quoted me £500-600 haha! So im contemplating selling it on as is, considering i bought it for £800 or fixing it...

Ohhh pastieman! Changed the Lamba, CPS, Coilpack, Leads, Plugs. The misfire has gone from cyl 3 to 2, so the garage suggested HG failure?

***Renault Clio 2002 1.2 Dynamique *** 80,000 miles. 6 months MOT 6 Months Tax Possible headgasket failure, £500ish?

Headgasket on a 1.2 Renault Clio - 2002. Big job? Taken a head off before, on a old car and have a Haynes on hand hahaa!

How can you check the injectors? Can you just unplug like you do with the leads?

I've always wanted those wheels! splits or no splits they do look nice. How did you pop out the sunroof? Mine is leaking in the two corners at the moment as im sure yours was

Seems quite high! unless its a turbo or a diesel generally mapping is only good to sort out flatspots or rev bands as hes stated in the emails

Skipped a few posts, but for them to accommodate your map wont they have to RR it along with testing fuel mixtures etc. I dont think many mobile mappers can do this hahaha! It also takes hours of testing normally. I know Chip even though hes a bit of a c**t will tell you this.

Sound like a pointless exercise, should of spent the money on maybe parts that you can actually get a return on, or use in the future, such as wheels, suspension,rarb etc

As above really- blip the throttle and i get a hissing sound from the back of the engine (sounds to be) Only really the first 500rpm from idle (bad misfire). It also has he EML light on after fixing lamba, plugs, leads and coil pack. If i blip enough it will eventually cut out... Compression...

Ps Is there any specialists in the NW area? i know there is one around Chester way-birchdown. Or any fellow CS member willing to have a look for a few beer tokens.

I know most Clios have a Gearbox mount problem where they can sometimes kick out of 3rd. Well the last couple of days my 51' 1.2 has been getting worse, kicking out of most gears when i try to apply power. On the way home from work, it just kicked out of 3rd and 2nd, so i pull into a carpark...

Cheers Pastieman. I only changed the lambda sensor as the sensor and the plug wasn't actually connected hahaha

:lol: I kinda be grudge paying for diagnostics. If the fault was with the plugs, leads or coil pack would the lead still be making arcing? Would the throttle body effect the poor idle?

Recently acquired an 02' Clio, with a flashing emissions light and goes into to limp mode. Idles around 500 really lumpy. Plugged it into a diag machine and got a load of errors, cleared those and ran to see what would come up. Base 1 02 sensor and misfire on cylinder 3 came back. Replaced...
