I've had to refurbish the wing mirrors and I can't remember which glass goes on which side. Can anyone help?

Since installing the new stereo the one-touch windows won't reset. I've tried everything. I'm sure they are not moisture affected, as I think they worked flawlessly before installing. Both sides act up the same and won't initialize. I've tried every procedure there is, including initializing...

I would be very grateful if someone with dialogys could print the wiring diagrams for the following: 1. The electrical windows and the UCH computer. 2. The wiring for the heated seats. 3. If possible, the fuses in the engine compartment "protection and switching unit" I tried to install...

I did a few searches, but possibly didn't use the correct search terms. I seem to recall a lad selling genuine parts on here a year or so back. Is he gone? What other cheap options do I have? Parts will need to be exported. I have dealt with Ktec before, but I don't think it was particularly...

How long does it take to do this DIY? I have most of the tools needed? Do you have to remove the shocks to remove the box?

Does anyone have the part no. for the release bearing and the rear main seal?

I'm hoping someone may help. I'm looking for a dust seal/rubber boot for the control arm ball joint. I tore mine when replacing the top mounts. The ball joint is in great condition, so no need to replace the arm . Has anyone got a bad control arm lying about that they could remove the boot...

What are your brakes like when braking hard after a longish straight? Does the pedal go past the throtlle making it awkward to HaT? I have found that as my pace has increased and the braking distances shortened it has become harder and harder to HaT as the pedal simply goes too deep when...

I'm having trouble installing mine and would like to know more about them. I can't seem to find any info on the Web.

I would like to firm up the front and refresh the rear bushes. I would prefer rubber to PU. I found some FEBI Bilstein bushes onlye that allegedly fit, but I won't buy them if the OEM bushes use a harder shore rubber than the standard Clios (which I would expect considering the handling and...

Or do they use harder rubber bushes?

I have had this for a long time. It is most audible between 3200 and 3600rpm. The noise is very pronunced when the engine is cold and goes away when hot, unless under load. I was driving up a slope yesterday and the noise was clear to hear in second gear, but went away at the same RPM in first...

I'm assuming the same engine supsension is used in many cars, but do ours use harder rubber. Does anyone know if the parts numbers are shared by many vehicles?

First the heating went for the seats, then the climate controls and the radio died. I'can't find any blown fuses in the dashboard fuse box, and my manual is in German. Surely a fuse or two have blown, but where are they?

I would like to buy a keyless steering column for my car to get the reach adjustment. There are serveral on e-bay. I would install it and keep the keyed entry and simply weld a support for the ignition switch to the colum frame. I would ditch the column lock. Any thoughts on this project? Can I...

Does anyone have the Delphi compressor number for the AC compressor? Mine has been refurbished, and apparently the numbers have been changed somehow. I need the compressor number to ensure I buy the correct clutch and pulley assembly.

What are the most common leaks from the lower half of the engine? Rear main seal, oil pan seal, gearbox input shaft, drive shafts or clutch slave cylinder? I'm trying to locate a leak which seems to come from the rear of the engine, but I'm having trouble. I'm thinking RMS since oil is dripping...

The inner ball joint has play so I need a new right hand side track rod/ tie rod. Can this be changed without removing the sub frame from the car? If the sub frame has to come of, what else should I do while I'm at it? The car has done 75K kms. Bushes, lower enginge mount, anything else? I have...

I just fixed the broken lumbar support wire. I thought I would share how I did it in case someone has the same problem. Good luck. 1. Follow the workshop manual to remove the seat and the seat back cover (see this post). Search for "complete front seat removal" and "front seat back" to find...
