alternator

Good afternoon, Long story very short, I was replacing my Clio 172 (non air con, non cup) alternator and belt, and I have managed to lose the bottom bolt(s) connecting the alternator to the engine. aka 'Renault Clio Sport MK2 2001-2006 172 182 Alternator Mount Engine Bracket'. I found this...

So… New alternator and battery 6 months ago, new cambelt and dephaser (done by trusted RS mechanic) around 5 months ago, solid engine mounts and mapped around 2 months ago, ALL Fluids changed so brake fluid is new and topped up, engine oil is done (twice), continuity on all the earths, battery...

Howdy give mind Ph2 ‘02 172 has what look like new belts and is driving very well. No documented service history until I got my hands on it. No idea if the previous owner or the one before did this, but the alternator top bolt is missing so the alternator is sitting on the metal a/c pipe and...

Currently completing my 'winter build'. One of the main issues was with one of the alternator bolts wiggling its way out over the course of a track day. This caused the alternator to vibrate with the ending being the bracket on the alternator snapping. I was wondering if anyone knows if youre...

I know this has been done before but I can't seem to find anything that can solve my issue. Basically my alternator packed in a couple months ago as they always do and i never replaced it as i was just using the car to get to and from work so just charged it every night for a few weeks till I...

Hello, I’m new to this forum. I’ve just bought a 1.1 2008 Renault Clio to get me around while a crash claim I was in gets sorted out. It was off a family friend and was pretty cheap as the clutch was on its way out. Ive drove the car around 4-5 times, it’s not insured untill September but I’ve...

Hello everyone! Im building my trackdaycar. And i have removed the epas and aircon. Now i want to use the volvo alternator brackets and laguna brackets. But i cant seem to find them somewhere. Does somebody here have part numbers for it? Would really help me out

Hi all. This is my first post so hello! I bought a Clio Mk3 ph2 1.2tce a week ago now and just can't figure out why I'm getting the low battery (and stop) warning light on after about 15 minutes of driving. This is the sequence of events that I experience: 1) Car starts absolutely fine, all...

Hey guys, so I'm selling my 2004 182. 103,000 miles and has full service history, belts done again at 93,000 Niles there. So a mechanic for bmw came to view it last night and loved it but noticed this sound (see video) and said it was the alternator on its way out. Have a listen please and...

Just run up #17 and checking aux belt, as just changed it, noticed the alternator was very hot to the touch. Is this normal bear in mind i'do only run the Clio for 2-4 minutes. Never felt one before after engine running so nothing to compare it too.

So, my alternator is knackered. Car broke down on NYE with a flat battery, and the AA man quickly diagnosed the alternator which I'd known might have been a problem for a little while because of the STOP and battery light that had been flickering. The AA man got it working again by giving it a...

Right guys, Yesterday I went to pick up my bargain Clio 172, I was told prior to winning the car that it just needed a battery and it would start up. It was last started a month ago by the kiddies dad. I arrive, change the battery and nothing happens, not even a click... so I was thinking...

Just wondering if anyone know whether a 225 alternator will fit onto the 197. I've been told it does and I can get hold of one much easier than I can a 197 item. Anyone? @Scrooge @Budgie

Hey, Alternator kicked the bucket today, Ive priced up a replacement and got one sorted out along with a belt but i'm having trouble removing and fitting the new one. Ive got an 04 clio dynamique 1.4 16v with AC. There isn't enough room to take it out through the top because of an AC hose so...
