+1 I defiantly feel a kick at 5K especially in 2nd & 3rd, so much so that I have to hold the steering wheel tight as it tends to lose traction and wants to put in a ditch!

Just a general question really, just wanted to know how much it's costing other people to own and run their Clio? My monthly costs are as follows, Loan repayment - £180 Insurance - £90 Petrol - approx £120 - £150 Total: approx £400 So what are your monthly costs?

Try this place bud, http://www.hids-direct.co.uk/hid-xenon-bulbs/d2s-hid-xenon-replacement-bulbs-p-447.html Go for the 5000k or 6000K temp.

Ain't normal no. Pull your head unit out and check the antenna ports securely in and all the other connections before considering a new head unit, unless you just want a new one anyway.

Cheers fellas and thanks for the link Jamie, wow that is cheap...seems almost too cheap!

Gonna be buying some new brake discs next week, already got some Ferodo DS2500 pads and just wondered what the general census was on which one's I should go for. http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=2786&appid=2 Or http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=2115&appid=2...

Its bolted in with washers. We'll it is on a 182 anyway, can't imagine it been any different on a 172.

Where abouts is the pressure switch connector Dave? Might try unplugging mine and cleaning the contacts.

Not too sure what the problem is but mine has always done this since I bought the car last year. Strangely it only does it after it's been raining or I've washed it, so basically when the engine bay get's wet :S

http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=1264&appid=2 That's the one mate, was gonna go for the Ultra performance one but didn't want something too loud and also wanted the slash cut tail pipes. It's defiantly louder than standard but not OTT.

I just got the KTR supersports exhaust fitted this morning to my 182 and I can defiantly feel an increase in performance, but then again my old exhaust was practically hanging off and full of holes so there was a noticeable loss of power over the last couple of months. So it really just depends...

Same this happens on mine and I thought it was the windscreen rubber but its actually coming from the centre heater vents. Still haven't figured out how to stop it yet but I ain't too fussed as I rarely go over 100, my front drive ain't quite long enough;)

As Da posted you can't plug your Ipod or mp3 player directly into headunit, you'll need an adapter like this, http://www.fitcaraudio.co.uk/renault-clio-kangoo-megane-scenic-oem-ipod-adaptor-connects2-ctarnipod003-p-714.html

Found this on another post for ya, "t mean an injection fault has been detected for a minimum of 4 seconds J means a fault has been noted on the fuel gauge. It must have disconnected for longer than 100 seconds. The resistance from the fuel tank sensor needs to be between 5 and 350 Ohms. d...

Yeah may have to check my rad then at the weekend. Car was only serviced a month ago and the rad was "apparently" checked then and the coolant changed. I've been in a few 1*2s though and the temp gauge has always been the same when hot, just above halfway:S. Guess its better to be safe than...
