That looks REALLY smart! :approve:

After replacing the sensor kit (£50 parts from Renault), it turns out the actual problem was the starter motor "control" wire (single wire with spade connector). It simply was corroded and wasn't making good contact. It was the wiggling of different sensor cables that moved the whole loom enough...

Thanks Fred, so your saying that by me wiggling the cable (pictured), its moving a cable around further up the loom on the crank TDC sensor? So it's not worth trying to clean then, as its intermittent? Would you recommend I just get a new sensor and wiring kit from Renault (they say the design...

Is this the oil level sensor, and would a bad connection prevent the car from starting?

This is preventing my car from starting intermittently. I have to wiggle it and get someone to repeatedly try to start the engine until I move the cable into a certain position for it to work. It's just on the right of the alternator and is connected to the same loom. Clio MK2 PH2 1.2 2004...

I was looking at this too as I'm after a Trophy soon. Anyone know anything?

M4 don't fit, they are too small. I think it's M5, I'll confirm when I get some.

Edit: Not getting involved with this fool..

Paragraphs.

Thanks, I'll grab some and feedback.

- Done a sensible 3 hour drive to Creamfields last weekend (all motorway), and got 58mpg for the trip! - Normal driving I average 42mpg. - Spirited driving I can't get it below 37.5mpg. (No engine mods.)

All, I'm looking for the 2 small bolts which hold the exhaust onto the middle and rear mounts. They screw into the exhaust arms and prevent the exhaust from leaving the mount. I'm going to the dealer at lunch, but as I usually have trouble with them getting the correct parts I was wondering if...

Ok :approve: I think I'm going to put that wheel on the rear for piece of mind! I'd rather still have steering if it decides to blow :o Gutted though! Typical!

Too busy beeping at a friend and I ran into a kerb at about 10-15mph. The wheel went onto the kerb, it did not just bounce off it. Here is the damage to the wheel and tyre. Do you think it's safe? Just had 4 new Continental PremiumContact 5's all round last week!!! The second picture is when...

I don't fancy Type-R's but that one is smart!
