Hi there, just a novice question on oil. My car is running well again after a throttle body replacement (credit to this forum!). Now looking at an oil change and trying to decide between 5w40 or 0w40. Note that I'm living in a tropical country so cold starts shouldn't be much of a problem. Which...

Greetings, So I've posted previously about a problem I'm getting frequently with the car going into limp mode with error message injection fault. I've decided to first send the injectors for servicing since my obd scanner says there's a specific error message saying injector no.4 circuit. I...

Greetings, Have had a pesky injection fault error message that comes out intermittently so I'm after some advice. When message comes up, car goes into limp mode with hunting idle. Other times its just as normal and revs freely to almost Redline. Did a dtc scan and 3 codes came up, throttle...

Hi, could someone do a quick guide/tutorial on how to remove the injectors from a 197 please? Or share a link to one? Many thanks

Hi all, continuing to have this problem after replacing the cam position sensor so I thought I should ask here. The car starts fine but when driving suddenly goes into limp mode, comes out with the error lights saying to stop and with an injection fault message. The idle then goes high around...

This might be a daft question, sorry if so. I have an elm327 obd2 plug in. Can I use the Renault clip software with it? Also where can I download a copy of clip that is compatible with my mk3 Clio 197? The car is sickly at the moment, keeps going into limp mode and shows injection fault. The...

thanks! where can i look for the plug? can i see it from the pedal itself?

thanks! could you point me in the general direction where to look please?

I'm getting these 2 errors... been reading some posts saying it could be the Cam Position Sensor?

No glass was available in the country so I tried my luck on eBay UK. First few sellers were hesitant to send glass 11000km to me but some had global shipping service available so I tried my luck. Bought one from a seller in Omagh, glass was 32 pounds but postage 50. The glass arrived intact in...

Thanks! My glass looks slightly green. At this point, I don't mind the colour as long as it fits the door.

Thanks so very much for this great information. As I expected, there is no available replacement in my country so the suppliers have to order in at a high price! I've seen some candidates on ebay so will use the part number you gave to check. Thanks again.

So this happened last weekend. Having some trouble finding a replacement locally since there are so few of these cars. Quick question, is this glass the same as any 3-door Mk3 Clio or even a 5-door one? Or is the glass for the RS197 specific for the model? Thanks in advance

I'm having this also at the moment. Could someone help out on what to do?

Hi all, after the recent drama where I was locked out of my car with the battery out, I'm looking to fix the broken door lock. Especially since our cars have only 1 keyhole on the whole car. Can I buy any used door lock with the corresponding key? Hoping there won't be any need to get a chip...

SORTED!!! Easier than I thought it would be. I actually put a jumper cable on the positive terminal of the alternator, theres quite a big hex nut exposed and the other jumper cable as earth on the chassis. The car easily had juice for me to unlock it. I then put back the batt and it drove fine...

So where do put the jumper on the starter? Do I put it on inside the red circle you drew or avoid that red circle?

Thanks for the advice! Latest progress is I've taken off the righthand nose grille but doesn't seem to be able to see the latch. Then I spent a lot of time and energy jacking up the car since it is parked tight to the kerb next to a busy road. Might try to put a jumper cable to the starter...
