    Fault code help

    Good advice here. I picked mine up with 81k on the clock and the spark plugs were the first things that were needed. How new were the ones on there already? Did they replace all of them or just one or a few of them?

    Weight of stock hood, or bonnet, as you call it : )

    Oops, it’d help if I posted the picture, eh?

    Weight of stock hood, or bonnet, as you call it : )

    Whoa! Yes, negligible. Plus, I don’t want to lose the usefulness of my windshield washer nozzles. On another note, is this a heat shield, pictured below? I thought about removing that because it’s starting to look “raggidy” but I certainly don’t want to do that if it’s a heat shield and...

    Weight of stock hood, or bonnet, as you call it : )

    Hi all, My hood, while in decent shape, certainly has its share of nicks and paint chips. I came across this fiberglass option which they claim is only 1-1.2 kilos. https://www.pesch.cz/en/product/fiberglass-hood-for-renault-clio-2007 I know our stock hoods are already tiny and weight...

    Does my Clio have factory installed Xenon’s or aftermarket?

    Thank you for the insight. Instead of ripping it out, the Xenon’s are quite nice so they’ll certainly be staying. They certainly don’t seem cheap to install…

    Does my Clio have factory installed Xenon’s or aftermarket?

    Ohh so wait… the projector isn’t a type of bulb but rather an enhancement for the halogen lights? I have no idea what went on with the wiring and all of that. We’ll see. In my basic thinking I’d just remove all of the xenon wiring and hardware and then put halogen bulbs in and go from there.

    Does my Clio have factory installed Xenon’s or aftermarket?

    This is perfect, turkie- thank you. Will hopefully get some time to take a closer look this weekend.

    Does my Clio have factory installed Xenon’s or aftermarket?

    Lastly, if I want to put my projectors back in, what brand/type does the Clio come with?

    Does my Clio have factory installed Xenon’s or aftermarket?

    Yup- so it’s looking like you all were right. I haven’t had a chance to check the leveling sensors (not entirely sure where they exactly are but I’ll do some research). Either way, I took some pics of the hardware for fun. I do like the xenon’s but I want to keep my Clio functionally stock as...

    Does my Clio have factory installed Xenon’s or aftermarket?

    Thanks fellas. Yes, there are the washers fitted to the bumper but they aren’t hooked up to anything. Not functional. Since it seems the Xenons are aftermarket, is it difficult to switch back to stock projectors? Anyone have a link or part number to the stock projector bulbs handy? I’ll...

    Does my Clio have factory installed Xenon’s or aftermarket?

    Hi everyone, I’m a little over 2 months into owning my 2007 Clio RS. I took my car to a shop today to do some paint work. I stayed with the guys as they removed the front bumper and there appeared was the Xenon paraphernalia/hardware. The wires weren’t really tidy and there was a zip tie...

    Wire ID- Brown wires coming from behind middle console.

    Thanks fellas! It's getting yanked out for sure! I've already taken out 2 kilos of wires it seems and now I have this to add to the pile. I'd rather listen to the engine :smilingimp:

    Wire ID- Brown wires coming from behind middle console.

    Hi everyone, I was pulling out some wiring from this sound system the PO had. While it’s obvious what was with the subwoofer in the back (I tossed them), I discovered these wires here. They ran from behind the middle console and along the passenger floor board and to the back. I can’t...

    engine temperature gauge

    Oh wowsa- that’s hella easy. You weren’t kidding. Just watched a video on YouTube. I’d be willing to do it myself for sure. Although, its safe to say I need to replace the t-stat, then? Do all temperature gauges on Clios face straight up like all the other cars?

    engine temperature gauge

    Hi everyone, any follow-up on the previous posts? My temperature gauge rests a slight bit above the first line/mark. I’m new to Renaults but to me this screams thermostat replacement as I feel the needle should be resting right in The middle. Any insight on this?

    (Pics) Looking at 2007 Clio RS- confused on if it has Cup suspension or not

    For some reason I don't remember the key but I'll look out for that as I'll be driving it to a Renault dealership to get it checked out. It had a leak, by the way, dripping from the splash cover underneath- I hope it's nothing serious but then again, the car has 81,000 so if not now, then soon...

    (Pics) Looking at 2007 Clio RS- confused on if it has Cup suspension or not

    Hey everyone, I’m fairly new to Renaults although I’ve done a fair bit of research. I want to be clear about the different sport models. The below is a 2007 Clio in Athens, Greece. I assume since it doesn’t have the red calipers nor the anthracite wheels that it’s just a “normal” RS? So is...
