anyone know the answer to this??

Hey guys I was hoping someone could answer a few quick questions for me: - Is the plastic used around the clock the same finish for every phase 2 model - i.e. sport and non-sport? I have a 182 and it has a slightly glossy appearance it's been painted. Are they all like this or do the cheaper...

Laine, thanks so much for that info and posting the pic! Did you have any trouble getting it to sit properly with the snapped plastic contact points? Did they both snap off clean? The biggest challenge is going to be finding a donor Clio down here in Melbourne! When I do find one though it'll...

Hi all Looking for suggestions on how to fix this: Previously that plastic part was scuffed and faded, I had it 'touched up' by this specialist plastic repair place, but I reckon it looks awful. I'm not sure if there's much I can do though - Ideally I'd just replace that part but I don't...

Hey guys The alcantara on my drivers seat is really worn. I've taken to it with a razor and tidied it up a little, but it still looks really ordinary. It seems to be a lot worse than others. Other than buying a new seat, has anyone had the alcantara re-trimmed? Just thinking what my options are...

Thanks to everyone for contributing to this thread! I now have air con again - these hot days were starting to take their toll. Fairly easy fix, took me just over an hour. I actually didn't have much trouble accessing the screws. In my case the cogs were in completely different positions for...

Hey guys, This might be a silly question, but is it safe to drive the car with the dash top removed, i.e. with the airbags exposed. Just asking because in some guides they recommend disconnecting the battery before removing the dash. I'm trying to track the source of an air leak, which I think...

So, I think the problem is solved! The recirculation button wasn't working and the flap was stuck half way. When you push the button it just kept clicking but not moving. I have pushed it open and the whistling noise is mostly gone. It is there but very faint - a noticeable improvement. I'd...

yeah thats the circulation button. mine has climate control but i'm assuming they work the same way. when you say stuck on, does the light not turn itself off when you push it?? i done some more research and apparently the flap gets stuck... it's located under the drivers side scuttle panel...

Yeah after testing the noise changes according to the circulation on/off and the fan speed. I'm thinking it might be the valve(s) that close of the fresh air entering the cabin... maybe... Where should I look? Would it be under the scuttle panel, where the cabin filter is? Thanks for the...

Sorry to bump this thread again, but I'm getting desperate. Using masking tape i have taped up the windscreen surround and the side mirror and I still had the whistle. All the rubber seals etc on the exterior of the car were taped down - any suspected causes. It's pretty much always there, even...

I just got some masking tape so I'll do some experimenting with that. I'll give the mirror a go like you said Sash. Can someone tell me how fresh air enters the cabin? Is the only way through the pollen filter?

So I was driving at 70km today (43mph) with the window down half way and made a recording of the noise with my iphone. Thought it might help find the problem. The noise is actually pretty much always there unless your crawling around town. It just gets louder the faster your'e going...

Hi all I've done a search and have found a few topics about a whistling noise on the freeway, but not quite specific to my issue. The noise seems to appear at about 50mph and it comes from the drivers side. Some observations: - It's not the hole for the sensor in the mirror, I've tried...

Hi all, Fairly new to ClioSport... Been a lurker for a little while but have since bought a membership and made use of some of the helpful guides on here. I have a racing blue 182 with the cup suspension. It replaced my 2006 Golf GTI... Gotta say although it's lacking in some areas, the...
