Cheers Clio1990, all sorted... although i broke the clip! lol. Looks like a couple of quid from Renault!.

All, Im just in the middle of replacing my gfriends door on her 172 (02). got everything off apart from the damn window winder motor. I have no idea how to get the motor arm off the window, nor the window out of the door?! Im presuming once the window motor is off the window will slip out. Can...

The car is a 2002 and i dont suppose its ever been replaced. I know the car was standing for a long time outside the prev owners, thats why he sold it cause he worked on the cruise ships... maybe its damaged it. I will get her to replace the battery for it. Any ideas the best place to get a...

I had my missus go to a local parts shop and have the battery tested, he said that there was nothing wrong with it??? Could it still be a dodgy battery thats just not showing up on Amp tests? If its not the battery then its got to be wiring.. feck?

Excellent, many thanks as always for your help guys...

If it was the battery, wouldnt it show in other areas of the car when starting etc etc??? Thanks ChrisW

Ive tried that believe it or not! LOL.. Surely

All, My girlfriend has just recently bought a black 02 172. We have noticed that for some reason the odometer / mileage counter is resetting itself? I have banged on the dash and checked if the button to reset it is sticking and it doesnt seem to be... I think it seems to happen when the car is...

Battery pack? BTW this is for a Megane R26... I just want to know if its possible and if so how much etc.. Im hoping its easy enough to do it myself!

If your car doesnt come from the factory with Xenons (because they are an optional extra) Can you get them fitted / or fit them yourself? I am about to buy a car and it doesnt have xenons which reflects the price but I would like to get them done at a later date? Cheers, Chris

Yeah, would be worth getting the book.. That was one thing that nearly put me off buying the car but as id travelled so far for it and it was so clean I wasnt bothered.

Hi Dean, Glad to hear the car is going well. Ive not had another car since. I must say missing her like mad. I hope your still enjoying her and keeping her clean!. My missus has just bought a black one cause she loved my 172's that much. We had to travel to the ends of the earth for it...

Thanks for the advise guys. My dilema is this, I dont currently have a car, I start a new job in 3 weeks and they are giving me £4800 per year car allowance to get what i want. It equates to about 400 per month, I am going to be doing quite a bit of mileage which is why it holding me back. So my...

Im looking for a black one preferably... Are they any good compared to the 172 / 182's? I have had 2 172's and loved them.. Are they ok on juice and comfortable? What MPG do you expect on motorways etc?

Hi all, What do people think of these? Im looking for one of these R26/27 (not sure what that is).. in black. I saw one at Renault but they wanted £16999 for it which i think is daylight robbery... Any idea the best place to find one? Thanks Chris

lol at the boot space!

Thanks guys, obviously not a good idea then!... As much as I want one its just not practical at prsent.. cack.

All, Ive just landed a new job which provides a car allowance, now i dont currently have a car and have always wanted a 255 V6. However I would like to know how big the boot is (or in this case under bonet)? Any advice on how much you can fit in there is appreciated, also what are they like...

Im in a dispute with the Missus... How much would you think a gear box (second hand) fitted would be to a 1.2 Dynamique?

Im told that clutches on Clio's are a bloody mare... is that right?

So would you say that £220 including fitting was a good price?

Hi all, My girlfriends clutch has just gone and I was wondering how much you would expect to pay for a clutch? I have been quoted by a friend, I just want to shop around though just incase.. Im not looking at using Renault BTW! ChrisW

Thanks for the advice, luckily I was getting a mechanic friend to do them for me but Ive sold the car i think so they said they will do it themselves. Cool, Chris.

I just need to replace the current ones as they are shot. Im also replacing the one under the battery tray.... Luckily im not doing it, the person im selling the car to is going to do it. I just have to provide the parts for them. They wanted to do it personally. So the car shakes at idle...

So all i need to do for the Dog Bone mount is replace the bushes with these then? Thanks, Chris

All, Is this the full mount or just the blue things in the pictures? I want to know cause my engine is knocking quite badly and I know that its the dogbone mount. Will this part help with the problem? http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=1485

There is a CD you can download called "The ultimate Boot Disk". That will get it back for you. You should be able to download if from Torrents or somewhere like that. Let me know if you need to know more... I said that wrong, there is a bunch of programs which you put onto CD which is called...

What a star... I will give this a go tomorrow hopefully... Need to purchase some torx wrenches first though... dont have any :(

That reminds me, i forgot to mention, mines a Phase 2... Is it much different to the Phase 1 removal?

Hi Fubar, Many thanks mate, Im one of those people who tend to break things by getting in a strop half way through something!!. However if i have a guide or an idea how to do something it helps me!. BTW - Where in the back of the dash does the 6 Disc CD Changer cable go? Ive got the disc changer...
