Recently had a problem whereby when I press my brake pedal whilst indicating, this will cause either the indicator to flash much quicker, stop flashing or cause both to flash as if my hazards are on - very weird. I have tried spraying with WD40 and the leads and bulb ends etc on rear lights and...

I'm sure I have posted about this in the past but it is still a problem. Car keeps cutting out, when cold, when approaching a stand still. It is ok once the engine is warm. I have cleaned the throttle body out which used to work for this but isn't really doing the job anymore. Any...

Any ideas anyone?

Recently there has been a noise that appears to come from around the bonnet area when going over bumps and also when turning at high speeds can be kind of felt through the steering column, like a rattly squeeking noise. Unsure of what this could be but my guesses point me towards engine mounts...

Cheers.. going to make a start soon!

I've seen a few diagrams and photos, I believe you have to take the airbox off first? From there I should be able to spot it against pics I've seen?

So I just use standard sand paper? How much should I sand it down by? Thanks for reply.

Just been having a search about on google etc tonight whilst I was free and a lot of searches / forum posts etc point towards the TDC sensor needing a clean (or possible replacement). I've got a bit of spare time tomorrow so may give this a go, what do I use to clean it with?

I'll just see how it goes then if it carries on will take it somewhere, thanks

What would be the best thing to do then? take it to local garage? Cheers

cleaned the throttle body last week, its something I regularly do. Is it worth changing plugs? If it was Lamda sensor then MPG would drop wouldn't they? (MPG hasn't been affected)

There are no lights on, no

Used the clio yesterday morning, everything was fine, then yesterday afternoon it just wouldn't start. It was trying to start but just wouldnt actually start... wasn't the battery because the lights etc work. I have noticed over past week revs have been a bit erratic and sometimes drop very...

On all occasions they've had to order the parts from Renault and i've had to wait for it to be delivered. They have fitted an RN904 today.

What should this look like? I got my silver 172 back in Feb last year and when I first got it, it needed a new exhaust. This was fitted at National Tyres and has always been a cube shaped back box. In August it needed a replacement which was done under guarantee - again, a cube shaped back box...
