1.2 16v

Hi all , Been having some ideas about chucking a sports cat on the 1.2 purely to add a bit of sound without just taking off the backbox and maybe even helping with the cat smell ( every so often it will do as a garage has called it a "cat clean" where it will smell and clear itself out?) The...

Hi all, I know its been said so many times before but thought i'd get some opinions. I have the Df4 722 (i believe) engine with the stock airbox as shown in picture below (not mine) Would anyone think its worth adding an induction kit to it , obviously its not gonna do much for performance...

Anyone know if theres an after market air intake for a standard 58mm throttle body on a standard d4f 722?, That or just some way to give it increased power into 5th gear. Throttle fully open and it wont accelerate and even slows down up hill but dont fancy slipping into 4th at 60+ Are these...

Hello , I bought my 1.2 16v bone stock in august 2021 and around may 2022 has a mid/rear catback exhaust installed , after some time it has decided to give itself some small pops with the occasional bigger bang which can be audibly heard.(the car on occasion may also give off almost an egg...

After having some issues with my spoiler which have now been fixed there are a few things I had happened that others might find useful. If you are looking at putting a 172 cup spoiler on your 1.2 mk2 first make sure your connectors for the light itself are the same, check this by undoing the...

A month ago I went to start the car and it would only crank, the fuel line had come loose... Ordered and replaced with a genuine item. Today on the motorway it deciding to spit it out again! Before I start tearing up the engine bay what could be the cause(s) of this? It happened just under 4K...

Hi! I found this loose hose (circled below) behind the left headlights (left-hand car). Does anyone know what it is for and where it should go? :oops: It comes from far below, although I can't quite see from where looking from above. Found nothing in the Haynes manual. Thanks!

Hi all, new to the forum and trying to troubleshoot an issue with my Clio. It's an 06 Campus Sport 1.2 16v, 68k miles and generally runs well. Used to be only every now and then but recently starting has been a real issue, it'll crank fine but not fire properly until 3rd or 4th time...

Need to change the exhaust gasket on my 2011 mk3, it sounds like its leaking air. Is it a pain in the ass to do? 1.2 16v non turbo (D7F engine)

Owner of a mk3 (pre-facelift) Renault Clio Extreme. 1.2, 16V, 75bhp, 2006 model. I’m wondering if it’s possible to fit the turbo from the 1.2 TCE to my car, or if there’s a difference in the internals of the engine. Or perhaps there’s a 6 speed gearbox as oppose to a 5 speed. I’ve seen the...

Hello all About three years ago I leased a new Clio eqipped with the 1.2 litre TCe engine. The car has served me well so far without a hitch. The lease is up in a few months and I'm gonna keep the car as my own. Naturally, I feel like now that the car is going to be properly mine I can think...

So recently my Clio has started displaying the engine management light and another I am not completely sure as to what it is, the photo is too big to attach here but it is a box with a wavey like through and a bigger coil type line underneath. It has also gone in limp home mode I believe, the...

Hi all, As in the title I'm getting a strange metallic sounding tapping noise from the offside of the engine. I've not heard a noise like it before so don't know what to look for, so I was hoping someone might have an idea! Video shows the noise, it isn't as audible on the near-side of the...
