    52 plate DCi engine movement and other issues

    Hi. You should get the garage to replace the dogbone mount (under the car between the subframe and gearbox). It is the mount that dampens the forwards/backwards movements of the engine. I've just replaced mine a couple of weeks ago (for the first time) and the old dogbone mount was in really...

    getting a clio Mk2 DCI to handle better

    Buy some Eibach Pro (-20 mm) or Eiback Sport lines (-40mm). The best springs you can buy!

    green panel filter

    No performance gain (non that you can feel). But you will save money because you dont need to buy a new filter for every service.

    jump start a petrol with a diesel

    I cant see why it could be dangerous because it is a diesel? A battery is a battery ... Remember to have the diesel car running so the generator produces current.

    Gearbox or Mounts Problem!? Please Help!

    You could also try removing the battery and see the state of the (upper) gearbox mount. If it is broken then the engine/gearbox could move alot.

    Gearbox or Mounts Problem!? Please Help!

    The dogbone mount holds the engine from moving forward and backwards. You cant miss it if you look under the car just behind the engine and gearbox.

    Gearbox or Mounts Problem!? Please Help!

    Maybe it is a broken dogbone mount. Best is to have a look under the car ...

    Brake!

    Maybe it is a loose shoe inside one of the drums ... I had that problem on my 2002 1.5 DCI. The rear tire was totally blocked.

    2002 DCi 65 Not starting first time all time :(

    My DCI 65 from 2002 has never done that. You better take it to a garage.

    Blocking EGR Valve

    READ THIS! http://www.parkers.co.uk/advice/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=14421 When an engine is under load, the very high combustion chamber temperatures produced will increase the amount of NOx. The problem was how to reduce it. The answer - the good ol' EGR valve. This was designed to allow...

    Best Suspension for a DCI????

    I think the best standards shocks are Monroe Reflex. I replaced the original ones on my DCI with Sachs Advantage. They are better than standard but there is not a big difference. Then a coilovers would possibly be the answer.

    2001 Clio DCI 65 Died and wont start again

    That is not true. The EGR-valve on a Clio 1.5 DCI is very easy to change. I can do it easily and I am not mechanically in any way (computer geek lol :D).

    Suspension Top Mount & Changing Springs

    The springs (standard ones) on my DCI 65 were so compressed so it was impossible to do without spring compressors. It would be very dangerous too. There is a lot of force in those springs!

    K&N PANEL FILTER?

    I drive with a KN panel filter in my DCI 65 and I cant feel or hear anything different. Maybe its just me ... But I think the KN is a better filter. I bought mine so I dont have to pay £10 for a new on for every service. That was the main reason.

    Suspension Top Mount & Changing Springs

    You do need spring compressors! Trust me. Anything else is impossible!

    Tested panel filter for the Dci and...

    Which brand of air filter? KN? Because I drive with a KN panel filter in my DCI 65 and it is as good as the standard one. I cant feel anything different.

    oil for the dci 80

    I recommend Shell Ultra Helix 5W40 fully synthetic. I use it on my DCI 65 2002 and change oil + oil filter every 9400 miles.

    HID conversion

    I've just done it. You just replace the headlight. The height level adjustment still works. But it means taking of the front bumper to change the headlights. See the attached pictures. A Haynes manual would be a good idea.
