Definately not the bulbs or fuses, checked them and all the visible plugs and connectors I could... Still not working... Relay is making plenty of noise and the rear one is working fine (except too fast!). Any one else had this? Thing is it started doing it and then stopped on many several...

I didnt drive my RT a lot over winter and when I came to drive it the offside front and side indicators didnt work (the back one just flashed faster), however after getting up to temp and taking a few right turns itd eventually sort itself and during the Donny car show it stopped altogether. Its...

Its time for a new car and Im not sure the best course of action for the clio. Its a 91 J, 1.4RT which has had lots of work on it and the only thing wrong with it now is a tiny amount of rust on the arches and passenger door (surface only and not expensive to fix). Ultimately I know its worth...

Im currently planning an enterprise project based around transporting cars to racetracks. I just have a couple of questions; How many members trailer cars to events? How many members have knackered a car at an event and have had to pay to have it trailered home? Any help would be muchly...

I took the glass out, got some OrangeGlow degreaser and some cotton buds and got all the muck out of the seals. Left it a while after giving them a good clean and they naturally get a bit more "life" in them. Just gave it a once over today. My problem is its quite noisy when travelling at...

You can have mine for a couple of quid if I can ever be bothered to remove it. The RT inlet manifold is incompatible (non-symmetrical, so uneven dispersion of effect) and the garage said it was causing it to idle poorly... So if I can be bothered to buy the piece to join the pipe back up it Ill...

Yeah its crap when that happens... Mine were McGards and one broke! The garage had to smack a socket onto to it and wrench it off, luckily it didnt damage my wheel. http://members.lycos.co.uk/clioracer/hpbimg/mcgard.JPGhttp://members.lycos.co.uk/clioracer/hpbimg/mcgard.JPG

Im on 16s and it just has no top speed anymore, I dont bother either... Look at it this way... All those people overtaking us will get a much better look at our rims! :D

Got my spoiler from them, they dropped it off at the body shop and its a good fit... Cant complain.

I wouldnt go for a 5dr hatch, but thats just my opinion, thats the only reason its taking me so long to buy my new motor... Families buying 5drs! lol! Anyhow, my modded RT is still up for sale if anyones interested. £1200 http://members.lycos.co.uk/clioracer/http://members.lycos.co.uk/clioracer/

I agree get the RT. Mine only cost me £835 FC with No NCB at 19 with full exhaust sytem, lowered and 16s... Liverpool V are very good, excess is quite steep though, so dont crash! Take a look in the Sales forum, plenty of RTs for sale in there. BTW... Why are Maxims faster?

They had to drop the sub-frame and shift the gearbox on mine, cant give an idea of cost though because they were doing more jobs at the time, Id budget at least £150 though. Andi

Hope that its a pre-July model... then you wont have to worry at all :) Mines a 12/91 with a de-cat and it mullered the emissons... Literally! I thought it was running rich because I could smell petrol from the exhaust, MOT dude said it was ok because the CAT had been removed... Makes sense...

Renaults... well first of all mine is an oldie so this isnt totally relevant. Dealers are helpful depending on what you want from them. Plenty of staff want to sell you a car, but the last time I went to the parts desk I had to wait 20mins before anyone came to see me. Labour charges at my...

Scooby... Itll still be alive whilst the Renault will actually be scraping along the floor with all the pieces youve put in the boot after they fell off.
