If you have a gearbox fault say goodbye to a lot more than that.

Yay if it’s already on but nay if you don’t have one as they look sleeker and wider without.

Get some standard rear lights on the back, those look tatty , be careful pulling the rear light cluster away the two plastic prongs like to hold on and you can scratch up the paint by wiggling the cluster too much.

4k is a good deal for that spec as you can get all the bits up to scratch and know it’s been done right, I soldered the passenger side wires together rather than use the connector block, I tried contact cleaner but I think the wire had broken in its sleeve as it gets caught in the sliding...

Clio 172s are going up so rapidly in price I suppose it’s logical that 197s and 200s will as well but my thoughts are that the main use for these currently are as beginner track cars they are too modern to be collected as future classics.

That’s a proper fb special, Nowt wrong with that car some turtle wax and windolene can’t fix, the mileage is low and all those bits you need to change are age related to all Clio’s. If you got that for around 3k you should be smiling. I have a mk2 and a mk3 and find the mk2 a better daily by a...

I guess your not mechanically minded so I wouldn’t touch those, they are not worth messing with, if you want a no hassle setup just get some cup suspension installed.

Best colour! Well done they are crap daily’s but amazing weekend cars.

Any reason for changing so many bits? Was it neglected and your recommissioning it as it Looks like you have renewed everything, did it have a 3rd party exhaust or decat on before you renewed it as it could be running a map for a toyo manifold or decat or what have you.

I hope this list of radio codes doesn’t disappear it’s super useful

I got one too, the placebo effect of fitting it makes me think its reduced judder.

I’m looking for a spare, the dealer quoted £250 has anyone got any recommendations on a cheaper supplier

Yeah it will be fine cars get hot in the sun it will evaporate by itself

Did the map sensor holder do anything? love these in red

Good stuff, you have caught it early

Is there a picture you could share of this location, I’m not seeing it unless I’m confusing my belts

It could be the rubber bushes on the steering arms, exhaust manifold knocking, loose suspension, loose bolts on the steering rack, loose brake pads in the calliper, worn engine mount, gear linkage issue and gearbox rocking if not re installed correctly after a refurb, exhaust hangers worn out.

Any changes made recently

Could be a number of things, did you just buy the car?

Another tip: if you want to know if it’s been leaking for a while is to check all the unpainted steel parts in the car for rust eg. Brackets behind dash and handbrake mechanism under the plastic cladding. Might have been leaking like that for a while.
