Update time. the replacement socket arrived from Italy, but the wheel stud snapped. So I have ordered two 2nd hand wheel hubs, and a little bonus I think I have solved the abs problem as the ring was split, so two of them ordered as well. this car is now looking a lot like "triggers broom" but...

not really in a hurry as daughter hasn't passed her test yet ! and plenty to do on my own cars. Perhaps should clear up the pics business lads :) .She is only 17 but sings professionally when the car is sorted I will post up a link to some video. just be gentle with the comments :)

Have just sent off the request for a new locking wheel nut key ( 3 weeks from Italy ) when it arrives I will complete the brakes then my plan is to clean all the sensors etc and hope for the best :)

Thanks that could be a good place to start.

Having recently sorted the normal sunroof leak, I now have a leak into the boot. The car is parked on the drive meaning that because of the slope the rear passenger side is the lowest corner. This morning following heavy rain the boot had an inch of water in the spare wheel well and there was...

Had a look and it looks like the connector is still there behind the passenger side fog light but the original wires have been cut near the lights so should be an easy fix Do I need to remove the bumper to fit the lights and loom ?

the loom obviously runs between the two lights but where does it plug into other than that ?

Hi new to the forum as I have just bought my daughter a mk2 clio. The previous owner had blanked of the front fog light openings with plastic and newspaper !!!!!!!!!!! but when I checked in the car the switch is there for the front fogs and it appears to work. So I have bought a set off ebay inc...
