Tried searching for dan at sjm, I called the number but the number isn’t in use and there isn’t much info and only one person who likes the Facebook page. Looking for someone to fit lower balljoints in this area. Been in contact with aarans autos and mark black from midlands Renault who both...

Nice. Did you press the balljoints in yourself? Just wondering if mark doesn’t get back to me or he can’t fit me in for a while I may ask my mechanic if he can do it, he’s pretty handy with cars and I trust him with all my work, he suggested the hub to a few weeks back and I know he’s changed...

Already checked Renault parts direct and it seems like they have gone up to £256. If I can get the ballpoints on both sides done for £260 then that’s great business if not then Renault part it is.

Just waiting for him to message me back and hopefully I can book it in asap. Yep £130 per side sounds a lot better than buying the whole hubs. May Aswell get both sides done for good measure.

Just spoke to mark black at midlands Renault specialist, he’s been recommend loads of times on these forums and from seeing my video has said it’s 100% the balljoint. He does them for £130 a side so think I will try get it booked in to have both sides done, only problem is he’s in Nottingham and...

I had the shocks and springs replaced 6 months ago. I put apex 30mm lowering springs on. The squealing only started a few days ago But I noticed something wasn’t right a few weeks ago, wonder if the squek sound has appeared recently because of weather change? Maybe salt on the road, might try...

Looking for a specialist in the South Wales area or as close to South Wales as possible that can replace the upper and lower hub ball joints. It’s either that or it means a a 200 mile trip up to bolsover car care in chesterfield. Thanks in advance.

Ah bloody hell great. I suspected ball joints so iv contacted bolsover car care as iv seen them recommended a lot on the forums but the problem is I’m in South Wales and their nearly 200 miles away. I’m waiting for them to watch my video and get back to me. I’d be willing to travel if they can...

This is a video of the noise. Any suggestions?

Hi guys, a few weeks ago I noticed something wasn’t right with my 197, I started to feel something wasn’t right on the drivers side, started to knock and I could kind of feel it when pulling off, braking and changing gear which made me suspect a lose mount or something along those lines. The...

I wouldn't say it's really affected the handling but it's been there for a while so maybe iv just got used to it. My mechanic checked it when he fittted shocks and springs that's when he notcied the rack end which I already knew about due to mot advisory, thought rack end would have cured it and...

I may wack the scuttle off on the weekend and take a good look. It's booked in with the mechanic for Monday for him to have a look. He would have seen the top mounts when changing the shocks so I'm sure he would have said something, he's pretty switched on to be fair to him but I'm self thinking...

hey guys need some suggestions. Firstly the steering wheel clunk when stationery or at slow speeds. I know the rack can cause this issue but I don't think it's my rack or the Uj joint by the foot pedals. I just went out to the car and put my head by the pedals while turning the wheel lock to...

Hey, my clio is leaking coolant and I had a m8 pressure test and it seems to be leaking from the thermostat housing area, I'm not a massive mechanicaly minded person but do the odd bit of diy haha does anyone know where I can get a thermostat housing from or know the part number? Iv noticed on...

Cheers for the reply and link. I have a warranty with the garage I bought the car from which covers pretty much everything except oil leaks haha typical. Will pick some sealent up in the morning and sort it. :)

Oil leak coil number one hi mate today Iv noticed an oil leak around cool number one identical to the picture earlier in the thread. If I remove the bolt and put some sealant on any ideas the best sealent to use? And do I put it around the threads or just a dab at the bottom of bolt? Cheers
