Hey, Years ago when I was on here more frequently and had a Mk2 I purchased a replacement pair of door sill protectors for a mk2 ph2 3 door Clio, with the plan to carbon fibre cover them, however I never got around to it, and we now have a mk3 and mk4 so not any use to me. If anyone would like...

Bought my mk3 clio (sports tourer) a month ago second hand at 1 year old, and it wasn't originally spec'ed with a spare tyre, which worries me as our work car part is notorious for nails (Had one go through the tyre on my mk2 a few months ago). so yesterday I went in to Renault and asked if I...

First time I've posted one of these, but was walking back to our new house late this afternoon/early evening and crossed the road (at the roundabout at the top of willsbridge hill) behind a ly 182 with a cliosport sticker in the rear window. Thought I'd be interesting to see if it's someone who...

Was about 20 meters from our top gate at home and the car (1.5 dci) made a couple crunch noises and cut out, grinding to a stop (thought it was stalled, but wouldn't start again) Opened the bonnet and there was a small amount of smoke and electrical burning smell. We pushed it back to the...

Hi, Just wondering if anyone in the Bath area can recommend a good garage to get the tracking and a geometry check done? Would be much happier if anyone has any recommended ones, I had to do the tracking twice in a month once as I went to a rubbish garage so would rather avoid that situation...

Owned the car 20 months now, and have put on 12 new tyres (4 were replaced on buying, 2 i've just ordered from camskill) although 4 have been on the rear Surely this isn't normal! It's always the inside edge on both of the front tyres which goes and i've had the tracking done at least 4 times...

The reading in the car has been wrong for ages and i'm getting annoyed at it, so is there an easy way of replacing it as don't really want to faff with removing actual body panels or the dash or anything. Also guessing the part is just a order from Renault part, just to get the sensor, or will I...

I know police and stuff can track a mobile from the triangulation between masts and find it, but does anyone know of any way 'normal' people can find where a phone is? If it helps it's on the orange network, and i'm not a stalker, but someone I know who left their phone on top of a trailer and...

I've had an idea, but not sure how feasible it is... dose anyone know what wires are freely avalible behind the dash though? I'm looking for a battery feed ideally inline with the cigarette lighter, or something else that will switch off when the engine dose, but to the top right of the dash...

So I hate all things apple but have a 4th gen classic for throwing around in my car (running rockbox so I can play ogg :-) ) When i'm at home I use Rythmbox for transfering music, but at work I'm on windows, can I drag and drop music on to it and the FW find it all and index it, or do I have...

Either going to get a dell streak or htc desire and have been wondering weather to get phone insurance. I've never bothered before but especially if i get the streak i've heard it's easily breakable so might be best off. Wondering if anyone who's ever needed to claim has any views on it...

Need two new rear tyres asap really, last time i needed two new fronts I asked at the garage what mid-range they recommended and ended-up getting Marshal MATRAC FXMU11's, which seem good, but only ever had budget tyres before so haven't got anything to compare them with! Should i try and get...

Thinking about cleaning the car at the weekend, running low on shampoo, SRP and getting low on wax. Was looking on Halfords website with their bogof, seen people say about the Autoglym HD wax which is a bit pricy but then saw the massive Autoglym Car Cleaning Wash Kit Gift Pack...

Just wondering if anyone has opinions on having a K&N panel filter over a standard one in a non-sport? Will it make much difference, so far all i've worked out is that if i keep the car over 5 years i'll have made my money back from not buying standard ones, but is there much other benefits...

Trying to decided what phone to get on my next contract, currently the decision is still between the Samsung Galaxy S, HTC Desire and the Dell Streak. Thought about n900 this afternoon, has anyone got it and have any comments/reviews on it, I know it's getting an old phone now, but can it...

I went out to check if non-air con clios have cabin filters after a thread on cliodci found mine does anyways. But in doing so i dropped my no.6 socket (no handle) in the recess around the filter, see picture. No apart from now not having the socket is it going to do any harm leaving it there...

Anyone got one, looking for actual user reviews on what it's like to live with? More in the physical sense, as i know the software update is behind, but i don't mind having a wait to get a good phone. Trying to deside between it and the desire, but if the size is manageable then it's my...

What were the different seats available in the clio's? Everytime my OH get in the car he makes a comment about the lack of lumbar support and then proceeds to get out a towel to roll up to put between him and the seat, and i'm getting a tad fed up with this. So thinking next time i have...

Are there any decent looking mudflaps available? Not the big generic ones with pictures on them but just some that sit in-line with the bodywork and shape of the car. Also dose any one have any pics of a clio with flaps on, not really sure if i want any, but every time I go home on the farm...

Probs the wrong section, but would SRP work to get rid of the scratches on an ipod? It'd be handy, else i'll need to get some proper ipod polish stuff, but i'm thinking it's probs the same stuff

Wrote some stuff ages ago in it, went to continue with it yesterday and the skype Developers website is down, and i can't remember how to do it, the help files for the module aren't telling me what i need to know either, Although i'm probs just being a noob. Can anyone help, with either how...

Posting on cliodci.net so thought i'd share my days work here too: Washed the car this afternoon , and it was looking smart enough for some pictures, so went and took some at the random gatehouse place: Cleaning info: Washed, clayed, washed again, AG SRP, Nano-tech Wax, AG Bumper care, and...

Recieved an email about O'reilly's one day only ebook offer: Choose any O'Reilly ebook (excluding microsoft press titles) and get it for $9.99. Code is FAVFA. Though it might help anyone if you need a book of theirs, compared to some of the RRP's it's saving alot

was claying the car last night until it started raining and getting dark, but does it matter about wax, because before doing it i had quite a few coats on, which i re did once i finished, but does it matter about it before, or does it still work through the wax?

Not sure if this is the right place to be asking and stuff, but could do with finding a garage to check and probs replace my shocks and have no idea about garages in or around Basingstoke. I remember there were people at the first meet i went to who either worked or lived here too, so is...

recently i've been thinking the car feels like there is more under steer than usual, not really noticing much, but i'm just not as confident on roundabouts and corners at speed, without it feeling like i'm going to end up changing lanes, which isn't great. Also bumps and stuff in the road are...

need to wash the car again, and was looking for a better method to a bucket of water and squeezing a sponge out over the car and rinsing it that way, found this...

Got my thinking cap on this morning and came up with an idea to sort out the steering problem as the cover i got last year looks really tacky after only 6months ish, not sure how long this will last, and weather it will end up melting into the wheel as well, will need to keep checking it. The...

Seem to accumulated some reasonably large stone chips on the front of the bonnet, and with summer coming up it'd be nice to have the car looking reasonably nice. I've used a touch-up stick a few times now, but it keeps coming off the ones in question as they are through to the metal and have...
