Hi thanks for your reply! I believe it is blowing just before the cat (where the manifold meets) it does have VVT yes. When I start the car it seems fine, doesn't hold back or anything and I can barely hear the engine running to be honest with you.

06 Plate 1.6 16v Fault code P0001 Does anybody know what this means? My exhaust has been blowing and the management light came on this morning on the way to work. It is shows up on the diagnostics as; Catalyst efficiency or Fuel volume regulator control

Hi, I was driving to Gloucester from Birmingham this morning (I commute every day) and my management light came on with the service spanner and the message "Check emissions" popped up on the dash.. Now, there has been a very slight blow on the exhaust for a couple of weeks that I intend to...

I could do, I'm from Birmingham, I commute here EVERYDAY! lol

Thanks for all of your comments! The wheel colour is off the shelf at Halfords, they call it "Peugeot Granite Grey". I didn't think about doing them the same colour, I think I'll get 1 of the strips off and try it and see how it looks! If it goes wrong, I can always try another colour. It's...

Hello there! Here is my little Clio. I bought it about a month ago and it looked like this: The car came with FSH, 41k on the clock and 2 previous owners, it drives lovely. By no means is it "fast" but it still gives you the "4k kick" and handles well. Since then, all I had really done...

Woahhh, nice to see some people who are local to myself! Shirley K is awesome.. Wouldn't be parking my car in Sheldon though ;)

Weather was lovely so thought I would take a few snaps of my little 1.6. What do you guys think?

Ye it's a shame really, I could have/was going to get the 197 version or at least the GT version but ever so slightly out of my price range and I commute 100 miles a day round trip so fuel consumption was a biggy for me! Not really looking for anything spectacular, just a little extra grunt...

Bumpety Bump ;)
