    197 Panoramic Sunroof drain holes?

    Hi, just wondering how many drain holes they should have? Looks like there should be 2 at each side of the front but if they are drain holes they're blocked! The only one that drains is the drivers side rear one. Just wanted to verify that they are drain holes before I go poking them :) Thanks...

    Hey. I'm looking at getting some decent rubber for the clio. I've decided on the rainsport3's! However there are three types: 83V, 83Y and the 87Y XL What do these figures relate to? Sidewall stiffness? Which one should I go for? I do a 12 mile commute to work on standard 30/40mph roads. No...

    How can I get a 16v bonnet with rain catcher fit a MK1 Clio S 98R

    As the title suggests, has anyone managed to get around this problem. I was thinking the raincatcher could be blocked this would allow the airbox to remain. or fit an induction kit and remove the e7j airbox so the raincatcher is able to fit inside when the bonnets closed?

    Draining tank?

    I have a mk2 clio 1.2. It's done 135k and was a work horse but the clutch has given up and considering it's only worth a couple hundred quid I'm going to let it go to the scrap heap. Now I have around half a tank of fuel in it (£30 roughly) and want to get it out. Anybody know the easiest way...

    Rain sensor

    Afternoon, So in my wisdom of stripping my clio i cut the cable to the rain sensor and lost the end with the plug on it. What effect does it actually have to the wipers? And could it be whats causing the SERV light to be on as no fault codes on Rstuner? Regards
