    Clio 197 Door Key Barrel

    Thanks all. I took a quick look behind where it currently is on the RHS and the back of the spindle (a spring loaded shaft with a T piece at the end) has nothing to insert into, which is why nothing is happening when I turn the key! It got too dark but I'll check the LHS in the next couple of days.

    Clio 197 Door Key Barrel

    Cheers. Hopefully if I swap it to the LHS it will work (at the moment on the RHS it does nothing!).

    Clio 197 Door Key Barrel

    I recently picked up a cheap 197 with a fair bit to do to bring it back to life. One thing I'd like to sort is the door key barrel so I could open the doors if my keyfob battery ever went flat (or the car's battery went flat). The key barrel is on the right hand (drivers) side and does...

    Hi from Oz

    May I ask who? Back in the day of good exchange rates I used tirerack.com. Are there any Australian ones you'd recommend? I've read bad reports of old stock (as you mention) so don't know who to trust.

    Hi from Oz

    It's alright mate, there are a few select Clio 3 owners who only talk about you in the darker corners of the meet ups ;)

    Hi from Oz

    Two reasons: 1. It's naturally aspirated 2. It's manual transmission But we shouldn't take over Steve's build thread.

    Hi from Oz

    Wow what a b*tch. If it took you 3 hours it would take me all day! Nice to hear it's good though. It seems very reasonably priced so I'll probably still get it.

    Hi from Oz

    Really? Was about to get one of these. The instructions make it look kind of clear except the exact method of removing the top cable off.

    Hi from Oz

    Mate, glad to hear you're keeping it! I'd heard rumours from some of the guys down here you were selling but had completely forgotten to check it was true! Obviously can't help with your question, but hopefully someone can.

    Can an aftermarket head unit with canbus adapter affect the one-touch windows?

    I had this problem too. Easiest fix it to shield the speakers. I just wrapped some metal strips around the magnet and it solved the problem.

    Warning for those with a Sprint Booster

    Hi all, This is a warning for those who have installed a Sprint Booster. I did buy mine through a forum seller and am not pointing the finger at them at all - they are just a reseller. I've had my Sprint Booster installed for a couple of years now and never had a problem with it. I had my...

    Exhaust manifold removal?????

    So I attempted this this afternoon over the space of about 3 hours with no success. I have a few questions though. I removed the bolt from the universal joint however when trying to lower the subframe it wouldn't release, it was as if it was still connected to it ? How on earth do you unbolt...

    Hi from Oz

    Nice, didn't know there was an official Renault kit for that. Are you going to completely remove the blower etc inside the car too?
