I know it's not a clio but as we know everyone here owns BMWs these days.
I need to PPF the roof on my car as it's currently immaculate but I do a lot of MTB and the roof on the clio got pretty scratched with all the mud coming off, especially during winter.
Want to do it myself. Can anyone...
Help me!
Need a 3 monitor graphics card, have no idea what I’m looking at. Not used for gaming, just work. Ideally not mental money.
PC has an AMD 8350 CPU AND ASUS m5a97 r2.0 mother board.
Monitors take HDMI
Thank you
I’m after the official Renault manual which has the piston ring orientations and ring gap details. Needs to be the official source!
Would be great if it also had the oil pump cover torque specs in too.
Cheers
I have the standard selector seal weep. Given the part to resolve it is so cheap I just want it sorted.
Now, it is of course technically possible to do, but if I split the box to only replace this aspect of it, is there any reason why I wouldn't just be able to put it back together? The box is...
Rebuilding my engine at the moment. I would just like a second pair of eyes on the below list of crank measurements and clearances, specifically the rod journals.
How do you interpret the notation on the side as it's not like the mains?
Thank you! If anyone has more documentation on the F4R...
As part of my new track car build I'm planning to spray the inside of my car. I did it with a brush last time and vowed to never do it again. Whilst I've done body work in the past it's always been with other peoples equipment instead of my own so this will be a first. I don't want to spend much...
spotted this on ebay, pretty rare and awesome conversion especially with an ESS kit....like that clio rep I've done....

Here we go again! Never did I think this would happen but with a few friends breaking Clios and the red shed sitting sorry on the drive needing some TLC the inevitable has started to happen. We did briefly put the car up for sale but it started to leak quite badly and after doing the maths, with...
I've gone to change my tie rods today and need new boots. Until now I've been using the ones from a sport rack but the large inner diameter is too big at between 39 and 40mm meaning water is getting into the rack.
For the life of me I can't locate a part number for a smaller diameter DCi rack...
Evening chaps,
I have quite a narrow garage making it difficult to get down the side of the car to jack it up on the sills. The subframe clearly isn't up to the job so I'm looking for suggestions/tools/jacking equipment (cheap) which will make this easier. I did think about having something...
Anyone else installed the presumed spectre/meltdown update? It was huge and required 8gb on my hdd. Now the PC is randomly freezing with no pattern.
Processor: AMD FX8350
I bought an asaka 3.0 from maplin at the weekend which turned out to be a bit of a fail. It transfered for about 20 seconds before crashing on every device and all the slots were upside down.
Anyway I'm now on the hunt for a decent internal 3.0 card reader if anyone has good experience with one.
Friend of mine has popped this up for sale. Had it for the time I've owned 10 clios so a very well care for car with nice mods.

Selling up because the place we've bought comes with the furniture.
Obviously 10% cheaper to a CSer because of the ebay fees :)

Thanks chaps :)
Evening Guys,
I'm not really clued up on PC specs but I've been doing some video editing with Vegas 13 recently, it's really jumpy and can't even display a smooth low quality preview. The main video is generally OK although sometimes it's a bit laggy. This is causing a particular problem because...
Evening chaps - Post on behalf of @Martin.
Next weekend we're meant to be going to Bedford so are desperately trying to sort this.
On Thursday just gone Mart failed the noise test at Brands due to this misfire but eventually got through...
Right chaps. Recently I took the cup to brands for a noise test and blew 100 db bang on even though I've previously been 94 with the same exhaust but hey ho. I bought a mid section from ktec incase I was ever at a low limit track day. Now, I've booked a day at bedford with a limit of 100 and...
182 mani cat and cat back.
Looks like a recessed ktec system.
Only downside is the cat being welded to the centre section.

I'm swapping the engine in my car in a few days and wanted to paint up a few things as I go. Planned on using hammerite for the box and engine enamel for the block.
Two questions
What's best for the rest of the mounts/inlets etc.
How best to prep them as halfords paint wipes don't cut the mustard
Afternoon chaps
Wanting to put my 182 cammed engine in my 172 cup for use over the summer and have some questions regarding the map as I don't want to have a custom map. Yes it's not ideal by any stretch of the imagination but it's a temporary thing before I get boost.
The 182 was mapped by...
Morning chaps.
Got a niggling issue with the EPAS on my track car which I want to get sorted before booking any track time.
The steering in the centre is extremely light and twitchy no matter which setting I put the EPAS on. After this light centre bit the resistance appears to be normal (for...
Title says it all really. I've just taken the 182 on holiday and knew it used oil so took some with me. Didn't expect to use the whole bloody bottle though. Am I right in thinking that this kind of usage without a huge hole in my sump is piston rings? The engine has FSH but is now on 150k and...
Afternoon chaps. Trying to get to the bottom of my steering problems in the 182. Unstable at high speeds in a straight line, feels like there is barely any steering for the first few degrees then it's like the car over steers. Happens with left and right inputs.
Anyway, two videos of my shocks...
Just wondering if anyone would be interested in doing a rolling road day on a summer, July or August time at the weekend with SRR or somewhere similar.
I can never make the earlier one in the year because my car is off the road for winter. Sure there would be a few people in this situation...
I'm looking at getting a full safety devices cage with cross in the roof and am wondering if anyone has this cage and if so is there room for a cup racer roof vent in the top. Ideally I want to get the vent in before track days in the summer but won't get the cage until some time after that so...
