Keep up the good work!

I think they are all the same on Clio 3 (anyone?), the engine bay fusebox is a plastic dud and does not surprise me that it is prone to failing.

I have had my car aligned by one of the top alignment shops in The Netherlands. The man (50 years of racing experience) recommended me to get rid of the spacers, get some fresh tires (Michelin Sport 4) up front an make an appointment. He checked the suspension, the steering rack and looked at...

Then the gear was not selected or the clutch was slipping. No gear selection = cable issue Falling out of gear = synchro issue Slipping clutch = worn clutch plate or oil on flywheel/clutch plate

I have found the cause of the oil consumption which was getting crazy with 100ml / 100km. Which these amounts burning in the combustion chamber the car would smoke for sure. I checked PCV hoses, changed the valve, checked camshaft seals, valve cover gasket/bolts, intake for oil debry, spark...

100%, usually under the hood but I have not seen it. PS is your airbag light on? There is also a G sensor in the car which determines which airbags and belt tensioners must be activated, after a hit these need to be replaced. I also sent you a PB.

Best tip ever is for free : When you want to put the gearbox in reverse, first put it in 1st and let the throttle come and move the car just an inch forward, come to full stop, put the car in reverse.

If you have the money I would buy back the car and keep it for spare parts because you know what you have. It sucks to be rear ended, but for parting out it is best. What is the mileage on engine and box? Might be interested but since Brexit EU countries pay import on parts from UK it might not...

Check fuseboxes and ECU for water damage/intrusion. Had a similar thing, one of the fuseboxes was full of water. Also check the wiring coming directly from the alternator, bend the cable if it feels flexible. Had a Megane with the copper wire corroded from the inside!! Threw all kind of weird...

I would check lambda's, mine was running way too rich in closed loop, got them replaced and the car is much smoother and quicker on the throttle. Two lambda's 100 Euros (BOSCH, 10 minutes work on a car lift. Fuel economy is around 1 litre/10 kilometers = 24mpg and 1 hour drives with half that...

I have that on the left hand drive drivers side, it has no cover..but the keyhole visible, but....... I have unlocked the car, a friend of mine came over who has opened the car using his "magic" with WD40 and "massaging" the lock. It was full of crapp, probably never used in 15 years time. he...

Since you have found a stock car I suggest you keep it as original as possible, never throw away original parts, do upgrades that are not or hardly visible but improve the car, or just to replace the tired parts. Doing so keeping value high and get a reliable fun car. Cold air intake I really...

I can confirm this does not work, removed license plate light, 12V on blue wire, mass on the exhaust (checked with multimeter for mass connection). Tried both with CTEK charger and 12V booster pack. I think the body control module is in the way. Don't trust a regular 12V charger because I don't...

Changed the O2 sensors this morning, which was actually pretty easy with a flat O2 sensor socket from Snap On. The O2 sensor were very blackened, I think the original ones, removed codes and test drove. The sputtering between 2000-3000rpm is gone and the engine is much much smoother at low rpms...

Sounds very familiar, I have this hesitation around 2500 rpm, and then I can hear a rattle from the exhaust caused by this. Could not hear it before but I have fitted a customized OEM exhaust. The hesitating usually is worse after I drive normal for a while with little TPS load, I slow down and...

Have it done properly, remove old gas, replace filter/dryer, vacuum leak test, refill with UV tracer and new oil

Every hot hatch I have have owned I stick with Brembo performance or Powerslot with Ferodo DS performance. For the street these are the best because of better initial braking power compared to DS2500 which requires warming up 2-3 times deep brake) but will resist fading a bit better under heavy...

At https://tiresize.com/comparison/ you or https://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html can check the sizes 215/45 vs 225/45. You could go 225/40 but this will give more rotations per km/mile and exaggerate the real speed. 225/45 will be spot on with speedo/GPS speed (so watch out when driving...
