First Car

[Oggy]

i have got a 1.2 PH1 clio, and already i am suffering problems with it, mainly leaky rear left slave valve for the brake, and a big noticable LACK OF POWER. HELP!!

get another wheel cylinder on there then.

is it a lack of power or is it just due to it being a 1.2.

Where abouts are you located, I am in Glasgow if your in sunny scotland I can do the work/look over the car for you.

yea usually the 1.2's lack a lot of power, however they arnt too bad compared to other 1.2's coz of the weight, try sticking a decat and panel filter in it, and maybe a cold air feed if u really want to, will feel a bit more pokey.

Im located down in staffordshire, and i've spent most they day on it and its nearly done, i have now across the error of the shoe pads are swapped with brake fluid, which i need to now get another set of them. i did have a air filter on before but it was the wrong kind on, and made it slower :dapprove:
