I was driving my Meglio earlier and I think the gear linkage has popped off at the gear stick end. It ended up in neutral and a limp stick!
The linkage looks to be connected at gear the gearbox. Although it’s quite hard to see with the airtec filter surround, I’ll take it off tomorrow and have...
I bought this to use whist my main car had a bit of work carried out. It's brilliant, for a B road blast I'd pick this over a 197 or a 200T.
The only other Peugeot I have enjoyed driving was a 205 GTI. The driving position and steering wheel are excellent, its a great modern day "hot/warm hatch".
My 197 Turbo has developed a stutter under hard acceleration.
I booked a last minute track day for Blyton next Wednesday, pulled the Clio out of storage today to find that it’s not behaving.
It’s a 225 engine, 250 turbo, remap and 630 injectors by RS Tuning.
I think I might change the spark...
I took the Clio out of storage earlier in the week and gave it a clean. I went for a drive/exercise this evening and it never fails to put a smile on my face!
The motor on the fan currently on my 197 sounds ropey. Looking on ebay it seems that a fan from any clio of that era will fit. Is that correct?
Cheers.
I don’t use my 197 Turbo much but it is booked in for injectors and remap tomorrow so I thought I’d bring it out of storage and give it a wipe down.
Driving home it didn’t feel right and the engine temperature seemed lower than usual (it has a digital read out).
Under acceleration it seemed to...
After 7 years away from Clio's I bought this 197 Turbo a week ago.
It needs a few bits sorting.
-Remap and 630 injectors.
-Brake pads, braided lines and maybe a refurb of the calipers.
-Interior tidying up.
-Track wheels/tyres.
-Suspension.
Spec.
-Low mileage megane 225 engine/gearbox.
-250...
I have had this over a year now.
I wasn't looking for a Boxster but I saw the advert and it was local, the right price, low miles and in "very good" condition. When I went to see it the only surprise was the condition, it was pretty much perfect inside and out. A couple of the oil services had...
I've not posted much on here recently but I bought a MK1 MX5 on Friday so thought I would start a thread. I got a company car about a year a go and decided I wanted something that I could insure cheaply on a classic policy and keep in the garage for occasional use. I decided on an MX5 and have...
I went to look at a 172 this morning and the heater would not turn off, you could change the temp and direction but not speed.
Is this a new heater resistor and if so is that an easy diy job?
Cheers.
I'm looking to buy another 172 and one that I have lined up to see is described as having a CV joint that will need replacing soon.
How do you diagnose that the CV joint is worn?
Cheers.
Long shot but might be of interest to someone.
It has never broken down, I've put 10k on it in the last year and it has not missed a beat.

We sold our Panda 100HP as it was getting too small for my little boy and all his tackle. My partner has always liked the Soul and tried to get me to buy one two years ago. So I decided to have a go in a Soul and I was impressed, probably because expectations were low.
I then found one for sale...
After selling our Panda at the weekend I had every intention of buying an X Type Jag last night, but it was not as described and the current owners were reluctant to negotiate on price to reflect the issues with it. This left me in a bit of a predicament as I needed a car for today.
I was sat...
I bought this about 3 or 4 months ago for my partner, she wanted a small 5 door car that was going to be economical to run. This came up for sale locally so I went for a look and ended up coming home with it. When I drive it now I'm still surprised at how well it handles.
I sold my Saab last October as I wanted to save a bit on running costs. As I've been doing quite a lot of work on my house I wanted something cheap that I could use for going to the tip in. I started off with a budget of about a grand. I looked at the usual 1.6 Astra's/Focus's etc until I came...
I sold my Saab on Sunday, I was sad to see her go as it's probably been the best car I've owned. It was by far the hardest to sell though. I decided I was going to look for something cheap. The below cropped up on eBay at a reasonable price and only 10 minutes from my house.
It's a 1.8 T...
Saw a Sunflower Yellow parked up on Leeds Rd on Friday night, had a CS sticker in the back window along with several others. Black wheels on the front and silver on the rear.
I got an iphone 4 today on Vodafone, changed jobs and lost the perk of a company phone so just wanted the same as I had and wasn't really bothered about the "s".
I've had a pay as you go phone on Vodafone for years so thought I would keep that number. The guy in the shop said that by the time I...
Agreed to buy this just after Christmas but have been waiting for the private plate to be taken off. I know the guy who I bought it off and it wasn't officially for sale, hence the plater still being on. He bought it 18 months ago from a Renault specialist in Leeds, I remembered him saying it...
