get a mate to tow you a mile or so down the road, cut the aux belt off and call the rac. they should be able to take you to a garage of your choosing (depending on level of cover though). Tell them the technician said it would be ok to drive like that to a garage, but clearly it wasnt and could...

Yours is a clio sport, however it is not a renaultsport clio. Essentially like a ford ghia, no real reason to it just a way to use up some left over sport badges.

yeh im undecided at the moment, tapes only been on a few days but not the best quality so some bits are peeling at the edge (or may be bits that were'nt cleaned properly before applying it). Either way ive got a feeling its going to take some lacquer off if i remove it so might go for a bright...

Sounds like youve got an air leak somewhere, check all pipes etc and make sure they're all on secure. If they are it could be that one of the gaskets isnt right/broken, im plumping a guess at the rubber ring gasket underneath the plenum, cant remember name for what it is that it seals though sorry.

impressive times compared to the M3, well done. As said looked like a great day too.

Anyone else planning on going? I was tempted to have a go on track as its cheap but as it would be my first time i dont think a show trackday would be a good idea, too many heroes. Although if anybody is going and they're going on track, ill try and get some pics/vids on my camera.

Was a fun little blast, car was looking lovely too.

Seeing as my last post was locked has anyone got a part number to call Renault with for a ph1 throttle position sensor/potentiometer? And before this one gets locked too, I'd already checked the sticky above and it's not in there. Thanks

anything like this what your after? (lol, just realised how old the original thread is)

could be worth taking a look at the rear shocks as when they go they make it handle a bit iffy.

Has anyone got a part number for a ph1 throttle position sensor/potentiometer. All i get from renault is that you cant get it seperately, it comes as part of the throttle body, circa £280ish. had a similar problem getting an idle control valve too. thanks

ok cheers, ill keep an eye out at my local scrappys, just feels electrical if you know what i mean. action etc of the body itself is lovely but if i can find a cheap enough replacement ill give it a crack anyway.

Had a longstanding, niggling annoyance with my car and just wondering if anyone else is the same? If im in slow moving traffic and off the throttle, when i go to apply it again it takes a bit of throttle before suddenly jolting the car then driving like normal. General driving causes no other...
