Hi Guys,
Noticed today when I went to pull away there was a small pool of water under the car.
When I looked underneath the car, water was intermittently running from under the car. It was coming from too far back to be the engine (further back then the front wheel) somewhere near the...
I'm on my hols pretty soon, I'm planning on taking my camera on as hand luggage (I've seen the way they treat checked in luggage!)
I was wondering if I'll have any trouble taking my tripod on as hand luggage or am I better off putting that through with my bags?
Anybody got any experience...
Hi,
I'm looking at getting new pads all round for the 197. I've found some online at BrakeParts.co.uk but when I questioned them, it turns out they aren't OEM (Brembo/Ferodo)
They are Mintex, so I wondered if anyone has used these before?
Any experience/reviews appreciated, especially...
Took the chance yesterday while the weather was nice to give the car a scrub. It still needs LOTS more work doing once weve got some reliable sunshine, things like wheels off cleaning and a good claying. But for a quick wash/polish and front end wax (ran out of time for the back so just...
I know this has probably been posted up before but...
Renault fitted me a new rear window this week as some of the heater elements were broken in the old one. The new one though doesnt have the ELF sticker on the back window. Im just wondering if I should bother tracking one down or am I just...
Finally got around to taking some quick snaps of my new 197. Its a little on the scruffy side, and my photography skills leave a lot to be desired but hey ho...

Im just wondering if theres anyone on here that has the Sprint rear spoiler for the 197? If so how did you go about fitting it, bonded/screwed/sticky pads? Im wanting one for my 197 at some point but will probs take it back off to sell as standard, so dont wanna go putting holes in the boot etc...
Iv been doing a lot of crap on my laptop lately, involving installting/reinstalling lots of different peices of software, and Im just wondering if anyone knows/has used any decent trustworth registry cleaners that arent going to screw my laptop or fill it full of bugs?
Hi everyone,
Got my 197 from a local car dealership, but after a day or two of driving iv noticed some very minor niggles, the balancing was off as was the tracking. and the brakes were juddering slightly when braking.. Iv taken it back to the dealer to be looked at, and after a whole 2hours...
Hi everyone,
Picked up my 197 yesterday and I love it :D, but only got one keycard with it. Me and the missus both share the car so would be handy to have a second keycard for it. I was wondering if its possible to buy them second hand off ebay and program them yourself, or If I have to go to...
Hi Guys,
Im wondering about the service light on clio 197's. Iv just bought one but when I was looking around lately I spotted two in a large car supermarket with 9 and 10k miles on them and both had the service due light on the dash? I thought they were 12k between services or do they come on...
Hi guys/gals,

Anybody got these fitted? Im a little dissapointment that the clio has two exhaust but they're hidden away. I dont really wanna go down the aftermarket route and get a proper one fitted so wondered if anyone has these renaultsport "trims" put on.
Are they tacky? do they just clip on? or do...
