    Launch Control help...!

    I know you've pretty much tried this, but maybe not pushed the throttle fully down to the floor. So, hopefully if you follow these steps, it should work: Park up, select sport or race (better in sport due to traction control ), left foot on brake, take handbrake off, put it in manual mode(I...

    Creaks all over!

    Well, I've fixed the annoying vibration from the rear. It's the plastic surround/cover, e.g. the bit with the grab handles on. You just need to remove this, and stick some foam around the edge. Here's the tailgate with it removed Then get some foam stuff Then stick it all the way round the...

    Clunk from under gear stick

    Just got in to move the car, and there's an audible clunk when you press the brake. It's coming from under the gear stick. Sounds like a mechanical clunk. Anyone else had this? It's going in to Renault on Monday, so I'll add this to the ever growing list?

    Creaks all over!

    Apart from the creak from the rear which I've traced to the tailgate, this car doesn't half creak and rattle. So much for improved build quality. There's a really annoying vibrating rattle from the rear which seems to be the black plastic surround on the tailgate. I'm planning on removing this...

    200 EDC creaking from the rear

    It turns out after my own research, that the noise is coming from the tailgate. It doesn't creak if it's open. Although, in practicality terms, this isn't really an option!

    Leather seats

    Who's the guy with the LY 200T and leather seats? Just noticed on mine, there's a section on the front passenger seat, near the seatbelt holder and seat adjuster, that's just like a fluffy material. Weird. Is your one the same? Thanks.

    Clio 200T Car Documnets - Booklets Etc.

    Thanks for the replies. I'd noticed the service sheets in the back of the manual, but I'd have thought there would be one telling you, "do this at x miles" etc.

    Clio 200T Car Documnets - Booklets Etc.

    Picked up a 200T last weekend and I'm unsure if I'm missing a book/manual or something. I've got the red one which is basically the Driver's Manual, a white one for the GT/EDC and one for the alarm. There isn't one explaining service intervals and what needs doing at services. Should there be...

    200 EDC creaking from the rear

    Hi guys and girls. Just picked up a 200T at the weekend. I've noticed a creak from the rear when you go over speed bumps, or down a cambered junction or multi-storey car park etc. I've got it booked in, but wondered if anyone else had this, so I can point them in the right direction...

    Hello, sold my A45 AMG for a Clio 200t EDC LUX

    Yeah like womble said, 18's in black, red calipers and Dunlop sport maxx tyres (not Goodyear Eagle). These are the most easily identifiable visual differences.
