    Hi mate, Apologies only just seen your message, I actually don't have any spacers on the car, debated them but seen cars at shows with terrible stone chips on the rear arches, and decided against it. Recently purchased some TPI wheel bolts, to finish the wheels off...

    Map sensor symptoms

    Should not be loose enough to pull it out with one finger. I remember reading people had cable tied the map sensor and reported it being better. http://www.clio197.net/forum/archive/index.php/t-37238.html

    Front Wheel Arch Liners

    Hi mate, They come in two pieces, the back section is normally the one which gets damaged/cracked. They are around £70-£90 IIRC. Not cheap! Best bet is to locate a Clio for breaking on eBay or local scrap yard, I regularly called RenParts (http://renparts.co.uk/) and eventually I managed to...

    Cup Steering Rack

    Hi guys, I believe my 197 (87k) requires a new steering rack. Been reading previous threads, and looking at fitting a 'Cup' rack. Can anybody tell me if it's a straight forward fit? Anything else require changing? Thanks,

    Scratch repair

    I wouldn't want any smart repair doing on the boot lid. I'd expect the rear windscreen would need to be removed to paint the full boot lid to a good standard. Potential pricing in the £175 - £250 bracket - based on body shops I've used.
