    CLIO CUP Problems 2008

    Sorry to hear that pal. Im not home and dry yet tho with this gearbox and headlamp issue. If I can get those sorted the car will be as new. I fear the previous owner was a bit of a 'chav'. Cam cover should be too expensive and door rubbers, could be a lot worse! What you think to...

    The dealer has taken photographs and sent off to Renault UK. The cam cover was leaking so they say. With regard to the gearbox/engine noise. As it goes when the clutch is depressed they want me to 'authorise' them to take it apart to inspect. If its clutch related they 'claim' it will not...
