How? I can get the cap off of the back of the headlight but can get in there to actually get the bulb out/replacement back in...

My partner has a 2006 Clio and the dipped beam bulb is working intermittently. Most people have suggested trying a new bulb first. I had a look at it the other day and its impossible to get at! I've called round a few places and they are quoting me about an hours labour as the bumper etc has to...

It's not a 182, it's a pre facelift mark 3, so guessing that's a phase 1...

That was meant to say Clio III, not sure what happened there!!

After googling this I can see it doesn't look easy. Got the rubber cap off the back of the headlamp unit and can feel the connection for the dipped beam bulb but how does it come out? Twist? Pull? I don't want to break it :-S

Thanks for your comments. Sorry, I meant ABS ring, not to sure why I put sensor. I've been looking at Mintex ones. You can get front and rear discs and pads for about £150. Renault want £126 + vat just for rear discs!

Just ringing round to get a price for a new set of discs for my 182 cup. Most places are asking me if I just need the discs or the bearings and ABS sensors aswell? Im guessing that its the set with the ABS sensors and bearings aswell?

Thanks for your comments, that's reassuring! I've noticed that the idle isn't brilliant to. Not particularly lumpy but just not as smooth as other cars I've had.

Plugs, leads and coil pack all fairly recent. Driving a car from cold will not do any damage so long as u don't hammer it everywhere.

Sometimes when I driver off from cold, the car is a bit hesitant as you accelerate. Even if you get up to a steady speed it is still not quite right. It is not that bad and not really noticeable. It doesn't always do it and never does it if the car is already warm. Any ideas? Thanks

Is getting the scuttle panel off an easy job?

I beleive that with the new rules that came in this year any light showing on the dash is a failure...

My girlfriend has got a new shape 56 plate Clio dynamique s. when u go round corners you can hear water running from side to side. Sounds like its at the front of the dash but I can't kind where it is. Any ideas?!

Can't believe how much better that number plate light looks. Think I'm going to change mine as its gone really yellow! Are they the same fitment for most clios?

Both of the above look like good options. Its going into a friend of a friend who has got his own garage today as he said he would plugged it in free of charge. I'll see how I get on there and if I don't get any joy I'll try one of the above :-)
