Unfortunately yes, they are. So are the brake vents too. I'll be doing some gloss black treatment to a few things like wheels, those vents and mirror caps, bullets, diamonds, badges and diffuser...better get the compressor fired up now lol.

I know, right. So annoying...will be changing them straight away. Thanks for the warm (second) welcome! ;)

It is good to be back, lol. Would quite like the car now ha I know what you mean, went to Nottingham from Newbury and got completly mugged off. This one turned up a day later...1 mile away *facepalm*

Yeah! Me too, comes with it!!! :D Are you near me then?

Cheers guys, not picked her up yet as I work in London so should be tomorrow eve. Pretty excited

Sneak peek when I looked at her...

Oh fo sho. Feels a bit slower than my last car but soooo comfortable! Really excited to bring it back up to scratch and start tweaking lol

Ta! GW 197 Cup pack Recaros Black speed lines...with grey centre caps lol Reflector headlights Renault sport chin spoiler Factory tints 30k FRSH Not bad, pretty excited to start working on it.

Howdy All, After almost 5 years, I'll be back in a 197 as of 7 tonight. Pretty darn excited, so you'll be seeing/hearing from me a lot...very soon! Peace. Morty

Sad times! Gunna get an Audi A3 1.8T Quattro. Really sad to see the Clio go but the turbo will be fun! Will be remapped ASAP. Need to get it as fast the Albi Beast

:bye2:

So the Clio has gone to Chris (racer2011) on here, sad times. I may be popping in to ad some random detailing post but will retire and wish you all the best in the Clio world. Thanks for all the help and comments! Morty, signing out.

Probably worth grabbing some tardis to, may help out.

Iron-X is a great product, should get rid of all the contaminants. I would go for Wolf's Chemical Brake duster. Exactly the same but cheaper! http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=899

Just now on the sainsburys round about. I was the sado in my mrs mx5 pointing at you. Soz, was pretty excited.

+1 good shout. Iron x is pretty cool, great to watch...if your sad like me:innocent:

+1 for me too on the bilberry, awesome safe cleaner. If wonder wheels doesn't remove something then nothing will I guess. Its pretty darn harsh. Refurb? :scared: For the inside I would have the wheels off and stick a de greaser on first. PW all the crud off and then get some bilberry on...

It seems as though the rear pads are too tight to the disk for me to spin the wheel properly. Should I remove, clean and refit the pads? Sorry I'm rubbish with this.:eek:

Cheers for the info guys. I have had a look at the rear tyres and they seem to be more worn on the instep than the outside. Does anyone think this would cause it? The noise is louder when i have people in the back seat...this makes me think its bearings?

I think it may be the bearings now you mention it. I thought it may be due to the rears been on for a while. I got the car upp on the weekend to check the diffuser/heat shield make sure it was on and all the weights. All looked spot on. The car has done 33k miles and I know it is on the same...
