I swear I'm jinxed with gearboxes, every single hot hatch I have owned has needed a new one somewhere down the line, and the clio is not playing ball at the moment, I think me and the car is on borrowed time because I now have a grinding noise in first and second gear if I go anywhere near the...

Hi I seem to have this odd engine judder from the car at the moment, it only happens when the car is at cruising speed, like when you are just touching the throttle peddle to keep the car at a constant speed, and it happens in any gear. The engine still pulls hard, but I'm just a little lost as...

Quick Question? When a wheel bearing is on it way out, do you always get play in the wheel. The reason I ask, I'm getting a nasty grinding noise coming from the passage side of the car, and I'm not sure if it's the driveshaft or bearing.

So I still seem to have my engine start problem. The car starts up first time, but if you turn off the engine and then try and restart, it will not want to kick into life, the engine just turns over, leave it for about 1min, and the engine will start up no problem, this is happening hot engine...

Just a quick heads up for people who service there own car, Eurocarparts are doing great prices on Oil at the moment, I just brought 5Ltr for £12, original price £25.

Not to sure what to make of this, every time I look at my milage MPG, it keeps saying 26Mpg everywhere, that could be fast driving, motorway, or just in and out of town. I have scanned the car for any faults, and there are none coming back, and if i'm honest the car is running fine, but...

I now fully understand why there is such a following for these cars, I have had my Clio 172 for a couple of months, but just have not found the time to take the clio for a proper drive and get to grips with what it can do, and I also had a couple of problems with the injectors, 1 went bad, then...

Hi Can anyone here tell what the longevity of Injectors are on a Clio Ph2 172, my car has just clocked over 110K miles and I seem to have a misfire again on cylinder 2 which is looking like a failed Injector, do injectors using fail after 100K on these cars. But this might also explain my poor...

Hi So for the last couple of days my fuel gauge has been acting a little erratic, took the car for a drive today and the gauge indicated I have at least a quarter of a tank left, 10min into the journey the fuel gauge is reading half of that, and by the time I park up on level ground the fuel...

So I have just done my first service on my 172, and I was wondering where to stop filling the oil too, halfway to the dip stick, or to the full level of the dip stick, are the Clio engine dependent on oil pressure to hit the 4K cam pick up, like the Civic Type R, I know on them cars that if you...

Hi So I have just brought my first Clio Sports and it needs a O2 Sensor replacement, does anyone one here have a pic of where the sensor is on this car, and are they easy to replace.

How it's going, Just brought my first ever Clio Sport 172, what can I say, wished I did it years ago, I come from the VW side of things and turbo cars, so it's a big change for me, but I think it's a good one. Cheers ​Wayne
