I always get the plugs for my Twingo GT from RPD. Currently £57 for the set.
D4FT's came with NGK plugs from the factory. (Mine did anyway).

Not a Clio, but a Twingo GT. 9 years on Wednesday (1st of June 2013). It's been my only car too all of those years. I've put about 70k on it in 9 years.
I'm doing the wild Atlantic way across Ireland in it in a few months time, I'm looking forward to doing a proper roadtrip holiday with it.
Also, the coil and leads are new (I had a spare set, as you do). I've cleaned the throttle body, and I replaced the gasket and O-ring with a new set.
The battery is about a year and half old. All sensors are original, but no warning lights on the dash or any error codes on the odb2 scanner...
My old Twingo GT has developed an intermittent cold start problem. Sometimes its fine (and when its hot it is always fine). But sometimes its takes a few goes and its rough / spluttery until it gets going. Once it catches itself and idles, its fine. And its fine for the rest of the day too.
I...
Many many years ago my twingo just died in the middle of road during a spirited drive. After much pushing and swearing I figured out what was wrong with it on the side of road. Starter would spin, but wouldn't start.
The plug fell out of the coil pack, I plugged it back in and it started...
I know its a Twingo, but the twingo forum is pretty much dead. Plus I know a few people on here have had them.
09 GT, just over 85k on it now.
Pretty sure my dog bone mount is starting to go (gear stick moves in 5th when you let off the throttle on the motorway, and yesterday its just started...
Just noticed this today. I'm a bit surprised, Renault and elf went back years and years. Also, Castrol gtx, it's not that great of a oil? (I've been using miller's nanodrive for years, but I was thinking of changing (annual mileage has gone up from 7k to about 18k a year).
Still driving about 60 miles a day to work and back. A precision engineer in a factory so I can't work from home. Also the company is only letting people book two days max time off as holidays at the minute, and if you self isolate, non confirmed you don't get paid at all. But there is no tests...
I read through this forum quite a bit (I've been a member on twingo133.net for years and years, but the place is dead) plus there is a lot of knowledge on here. I always search for info but I can't find anything about this.
Right, I have a Twingo GT (1.2 TCE 100 (d4ft)) for six years now. I...
I still have it, for 5 1/2 years now. Still doing low 30s, high 20s most of the time.
But I do hammer it a bit when I can and other times stuck in heavy traffic. It takes me an hour to do 8 miles some nights. Average is half an hour in the morning, 35-40 minutes to get home after work.
That...
Anyway, came in from home, pluging in obdii tool. Here is all the info

Spark plugs (and everything else - oil, filters etc) are 6 months old. Mot about a month ago.
I could get mid 50's out of my 106 on the motorway, 40mpg around town. And I can get 45 mpg out of dads laguna iii 2.0 dci with out thinking about it. I actually drive more carefully in the twingo than...
Hi, I read this site quite a bit, and for quite a few years. But I don't post that much on here. I have a Twingo GT, but there being a lot more clios on the road than twingos (and being a bigger site than twingo133.net) I thought i'd ask on here.
I've had a Twingo for over 2 years now. It's...
I Know this is a very old thread, but I work in same industrial estate as these guys. I was thinking of having my cam belt done here as they have a offer on it at the minute (£199). So any word what they like now?
Hello, I'm getting fed up with my car.
It's a twingo gt (1.2 tce 100, 40k with fsh). Had it about 7 months now, done about 3k in it.
Problem is around town it gets about 25mpg and on the motorway it gets around 30mpg. I'm not driving like a need a pee all the time. (say 85% of the time I...
Thinking a head a bit to early next year (the car is on 39k, and it will be 5 years old next year). What about the 1.2 tce 100 (d4ft) engine?
In my mind (I hope anyway) they shouldn't be to bad? There single cam, I'm pretty sure there is no dephaser on them either. I guess you change the...
