172 Cup with a 172 rear damper and a 75k Cup rear damper. Not really a matched pair! New cup dampers waiting to go on, bubbled caliper paint needs to be scraped off or repainted after track day, minor kerbing on alloy to touch up (fail on my part as works van has balloon tyres and I was on auto pilot!), inspect bubbled wheel paint after track day. Need a matched set of new tyres so I can get a proper feel for the car (3 different brands on the car at the moment. One being a budget) and driver window clunk to sort.

Got a busted clip on my gear stick gaitor meaning it pops out every time I put it in reverse, very annoying. Gonna have to get down to renault on Monday

 

[Sarah-182]

There is a thread on here of how to fix it. It literally needs 2 self tapping screws.

The point where the two clips are on the rear of it you just screw them in there as replacements. Job done.

 

[ckings6056]

Needs the oil dropping.....
Inner rods creating play in steering - gone from hardly noticeable to s**t scary to drive at speed in the space of a couple of hundred miles... Needless to say she is all parked up till these arrive.

 

[..Jack..]

Dodgy coil pack and leaky sunroof

 

[Big Spence]

Dephaser is noisey as feck (going in this week finally) suspected cv joint/boot problems, and it needs the tracking doing asap as my shiney new S-DRIVES are now worn down one side

 

[Christopher.]

The petrol filler flap needs painting ! Petrol Blue :banghead:

 

[AlexW]

Just a small list, off the top of my head. All on my own Clio DCi thing.

N/S Outer CV completely fucked
Engine knocking, suspected big end bearings (pulling apart today to check)
Slipping clutch
destroyed engine mounts
Overdue oil change (obviously changing it when I do big ends)
A/C empty
Minor exhaust blow
Odd coolant leak
Boost leak

Bored of it now too.

 

[2Damnsly Andy]

Front discs and pads,
rear pads,
rear wheel bearings,
cam belt
dephaser,
a/c to be removed,
exhaust too bloody loud/cracked
all 4 spigot rings melted to hubs,
diff is whining,
knocking from the front right at 50mph,
front seats are really uncomfotable (I must be getting old),
OMP horn push fell off last time on track,


Its at BTM so it's in safe hands.

 

[Adamm.]

15 months since last oil change oopsie.

Also pulling to the left a little, certain the alignment is out but not sure if a faulty part maybe putting it out.

 

[chepch]

Not starting. Flashing immobiliser light !!

New new uch and ecu etc on the way from ren parts.

 

[JCC]

The front suspension (I think) squeaks, can only be heard with the passenger window down.

So I keep the passenger window up. Problem solved.

 

[Iain C]

Nothing. My 120d tho has a wistly turbo. Ouch

 

[Chapperz]

5th gear sounds like a steal bad playing whilst being put through a car crusher.

So not using 5th anymore = Fixed

 

[Westyfield2]

Front lambda sensor. Cleared the error and am waiting to see if it comes back...

 

[johnpidge]

Creaking noise from front suspension when going over large bumps (so Sarf London only a few potholes then ha ha)

Turn radio up much louder - noise gone - pardon :banghead:

All the time? I've had this twice, in nearly 3 years of owning the thing. Both times sorted itself out the following day, very strange!

Went a month without doing it but now does it pretty much every other day. Clears if I restart the engine, which makes it harder to trace the problem!

 

[Big Spence]

Aux belt has lost about 5mm of its width and gone really thin, was making a loud slapping/clicking noise, so its gonna be in garage for two days whilst dephaser and that's done, and also the cv joint :/

 

[matt91]

no idea whats wrong but it makes this noise every time i engage the clutch, looks like i have to sell it now as well :dapprove:

 

[16v_paddy]

Exhaust cam decided to seize up & do this at around 100mph at Castle Combe

Bloody hell^^^

Hows that come about just let go?

That don't look to good paddy

 

[Ethan1996]

I'm bored of it and want a vauxhall astra sxi

 

[warwickstingray]

Rasp from 3-4k. Could be the rear heat shield which is floating in mid air on one corner or the rear box which has a slight rattle when you give it a mild thump. Will secure heat shield corner as that will be free and test. Don't know why I'm bothering as it isn't a day car and it doesn't affect performance. Something to fiddle with I guess.

 

[16v_paddy]

Head, cam & pulley are scrap. Bottom end is fine so nowhere near as bad as I 1st thought when it happened, will be back on track soon though

 

[onefourkrpm]

Backbox sounds like its floating around but not been under there to have a look yet. Car is a bit lumpy sometimes when I start it in the morning but sorts itself out after a minute or two so not massively bothered.

Needs a wash, cobwebs growing on wing mirrors and rear wiper.

 

[JAMason]

Nothing and everything all at once. I'm sure I can find something wrong with every car I own!!

 

[MartinR]

Stone chip on the front bumper

 

[Diagro]

Whats wrong?

Drinking fuel still. 32.9MPG best so far and that's driving like an old man with cataracts (could be timings)
Front Bumper cracked.
Bonnet paint needs respray after burning through it with rotary.

 

[MartinR]

32.9 is pretty good to be fair. Thats if its round town?

 

[Diagro]

That's from a 200 miles per week work commute.
5 miles town driving 15 motorway to work and same back.

So I am at least expecting closer to 35mpg. It's a pain when the on board computer says 38mpg and pump says 30 - 32.9mpg

 

[warwickstingray]

Padded out all heat shields to prevent them vibrating to find exhaust rasp. Definitely exhaust. Balls. Will just keep an eye on it for now.

 

[johnpidge]

Getting 20.9 at present in my 200 round Sarf London - pretty crap really
