Hello. This is probably a really stupid question. I pulled off the drive this morning and my brake pedal were rock hard.

Hello, could anybody please tell me if clio 172 dampers are the same lengh as smaller engined clios? Having problems with 1 damper and was wandering if i could replace it with one from a scrap yard but more than likely not going to be a sport, i will use my springs so it will only be the damper...

Also could i go to the scrap yard and buy a leg off any litre clio andtry that ?

Ive had a quick look at scuttle panel but it looks clear. I havnt had chance to remove it yet as im at work. Am i right in thinking that if it is the scuttle panel then it will be blocked alot further down so i wont be able to see it? Thankyou for all the help

Ok brill. Was the water dripping from under the dash i presume or from the window onto the dash? Just so i know roughly where to look. How much did it cost you if you dont mind me asking. Thankyou

Thanks for the help. Do you mean the rubber tubing that goes right round the windscreen? Thankyou

As the title explains i have got in my car this morning to find a puddle in my passenger footwell. Looked on goigle and common issues seem to be subroof and tubes under scuttle panel being blocked. I dont have a sunroof so thats out the question. Now im not the best with cars so if somebody...
