Hi people !
I have a 1.2 2002 Clio.
I have a few problems and wondered if anyone could tell me what causes them. Any help would be much appreciated.
I don't know if there related but;
1. Car smells strong of oil when used over 10 minutes +
2. Very Hard to put in 1st gear. (Most time I can...
Hello

heres a video of my clio - petrol 1.2 16v 2003 65,000 miles.
I know the ticking noise of the tappets might be something to do with valve clearance ? Which I'm getting done - but what's the other noise, sounds like something rotating or something is it...
Yer it is - I contacted v max and that said there fine nothing to really worry about.
I have the coilovers for sale in the sale bit now cuz I didn't like the firmness of coilovers lol.
Okay so I'm fed up with the coilovers lol I had how everything rattles in my car. So if any one wants them im selling - gonna put them in the for sale bit when I buy my subscription. Also got some spax 60/40 springs (new).
Lol yer. Oh right thats alright then. I would like the back lower a little but ovbs I can't. But there are brand new so I guess they need to settle a little. -
Or is it just too much. If it is Il have coilovers - v maxx but the back spriggs where alful so replaced them with spax 40mm so on the front I can higher it a little.
Noticed a massive difference tho after new suspension - sticks round bends a lot better and hardly get any under steer. I got over steer yesterday round a roundabout by mistake lol.
My car stance okay? I have new rear springs 40mm - but the front is lower than the back. So the car is slightly tilt to towards the front.
Is this okay ? Apparently is helps with traction :s? Or is this aload of crap lol?
:banghead: Wtf is this sound - it sounds like creaking plastic or something, not knocking or anything like that like creaking bloody plastic. - only happens when it's a in even kinda bumpy road. And now I have collies it's worst because its more of a firmer ride. At first I thought it was the...

from venom motor sport . I've called but they want the serial numbers. And I gave them them but they seem to not really care and not letting me know what's going on. should I just get some like spax 60mm springs and just use the rears for now. Cuz there only about 100 quid. Or pi? 60mm ? Or g-maxx.
even when the car was up in the air the springs didnt look right.. looks like to many coils ?
New springs from v maxx - look how compressed they look ?! and thats like the highest it can go. it seem the higher i wind it up the more compressed rather than it higher it..
what the hell ...
Right i got the springs on.. heres the pics... click on them to make the full size...

Car look nice now i think - just gonna carbon fibre the front and maybe rear badge and thats it. :)

Okay so got them fitted =D looks good - went for practicability mainly but still gave it a nice drop - so that arch gap is gone and sticking nicely round corners =D also tested 2 grown men in the back and no rubbing so all good.
But when the front shocks where going on we realised the steering...
