I've had this problem for a while, I just want to sort it now.
I can only think it'll be the inner tie rods or the uj on the steering column. Car is a 1.2 16V electric rack.
If I were to order inner tie rods there's the option of TRW (320mm) or SMI (296mm). There anywhere on the rack I can...
Wondering if it's possible to DIY - drop subframe method.
I've done my cambelt etc and change a rear beam. Don't want to challenge myself too much and risk messing it up. Got Haynes and a decent amount of tools just no engine hoist.
Also by dropping the subframe is it possible to remove the...
I fitted this alongside changing all other belts + tensioners. Thing is the tensioner adjustment is hard to do with 2 hands and not much room. The tensioner is on a slider as such and to tighten it there is a 6mm Allen key with about 2cm clearance I use a pair of mole grips to tighten the...
I get no vibrations below 60, but starts kicking in around 65mph it can be felt in the steering wheel and the footwell.
I can only think banana driveshafts both have been replaced with used counter parts, the one most recently changed did make it somewhat worse (wet side) or I have seen other...
First off my car was wired from bulkhead inside the cabin I had to create the wiring loom from the bulkhead connector R107 to the ECU.
I have the D4F 712 variant with the ECU mounted to the rear of the block/rocker cover.
After a session programming the dials (they are PH3 so they're digital)...
Thanks for the next test product Auto Finesse, it couldn't have come at a better time with all the road salt and these past few weeks have been horrific trying not to clean my car for this review.
1st/2nd Product - Satin & Spirit
Satin - I still have some of the sample left as I tend to only...
Unsure of any other thread so I'll start this and upload some of mine. Some good, some poor quality.
That was a bit of an effort on my phone. So many that were lacking camera skills.
Massive thanks to Auto Finesse for this opportunity to test out products I wouldn't normally buy, it has changed my mind, quality over quantity. Spirit is still protecting the car well and has a nice sheen once cleaned with Citrus Power and Lather.
After reading a couple of the bad reviews a...
Now I'm sure during the process it'll endure high temperatures, would this mean for me to remove the bushing for the rear roll bar (if it's removable) if not can a replacement be sourced?
Stupid question here... Could I risk leaving the bush on whilst it gets shot blasted and powdercoated...
Firstly a thanks to @Auto Finesse to be on the testing panel for such products, I'm not one of the advanced detailers - but I do love a clean car.
With my plethora of basic products alongside Auto Finesse Satin and Spirit, I used Rapid Dirt Shifter on the panels as previously I haven't used any...
I'm looking to activate CC on my UCH/ECU, the car was prewired cabin-side I have completed all other necessary wiring and switches.
If anyone is proficient in reprogramming a non-sport 2004 1.2 D4F - N3 UCH, I'll be a happy chappy.
Thanks in advance
I currently have this -
Now is it possible the change it to look like this -
I have AC if that complicates anything, I'd want to do this with any loom modifications. Changing the loom connectors I can live with. I unsure if the ECU will be in the way as it's mounted at the back of the...

It's a bit red.:dead:
Unsure whether that's a re-trim, as I don't think any models came with that interior as the door cards aren't coded.
So after the previous Clio was no longer :(
Rather finding another poverty spec one, I waited till a decent spec arose around Manchester.
This came with Electric Sunroof, Climate Control, Auto Lights, Auto Wipers and best of all Phase 3!
I had to look through the tints and the chav spec...
Looking into buying some 15" BBS RZ which have a bore size of 57.1mm (VW & BMW)
Now that'd obviously need changing to 60.1mm.
With one of the wheels it has had some bump.
I'm just wondering on a rough estimate, either through experience or know someone who can do this.
Thanks
I've been offered a rentech exhaust as pictured for £80, is this a good price?
As I'm after an exhaust to fit a recess in the bumper.
Now without too much faffing can this be made to fit a 1.2. Afaik RS exhausts have 2.5" pipe whereas mine has 2" I think. Can a simple reducer solve this or am...
I was after replacing the oval plate and vin sticker as mine were non-existent.
So I created a template to use with Photoshop then finally I have had them printed.
Now going to fit them :)
I've been looking around for different alloys that be used without spacers.
I've found these - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/190735229532
With these having an offset of 10mm will this have the same effect as original alloys (38.5-48ET) with spacers.
I'm not fully geeked up but I fancy a change...
As I've been on here over 10months, thought I'd put a few pics up.
From when I first bought the car, to its current state.
From day 1
The problems I had with the car were
- One electric mirror, One Manual
- Fag burnt seats
- No Spare
This sufficiently brought down the price :)
Other than...
After removing my upper and lower dash I found this connector
Wire Colours are :
Red - Brown/Black - Yellow/Brown - Brown - Green.
This connector was attached to back of my glovebox.
I have Extreme 4 so not very well equipped, this could be an add on?
I'm unsure, I tried to route wires...
