197

Hi - I have an MOT coming up and my windscreen washer jets have decided to stop working. Does anyone have an idea what the issue could be? If it helps, the washer jets seems to be working ok on the two front cornering lights. Thanks

hi guys, after some advice if possible! Looking at buying an 07 plate 197 this week with 48k on the clock, its fairly strong money. The only issue is its had 5 former keepers....would that put you off? Thanks in advance James

Might sound like a noob, but need advice on removing the rear dampers.. So my rear dampers are on the way out and have some CUP replacements. I gave it a go at the weekend but the 16mm nuts wont budge off the top mounts. I am aware you need to keep the damper still, any ideas? I will give it...

Hi guys, i recently got a stock shocks set for 197 (large mounts) and a set of Eibach Pro-kit 20mm. Also i got a set of mounts to fit the shocks but the problem is that the springs are too small for the mounts. It`s my fault that i haven`t read carefully the specs where it says that they fit...

I have a Megane 275 as a daily and I got a Clio 197 as a hillclimb/sprint car. I got early 200 cup shocks for the car. When changing the rear some clown had a sport spring in one side and what I guess is a standard Clio spring in the other. The car did sit very high at the back when I got it...

Hey guys, new to the site. I drive a black '07 197, and its MOT is due next week. Over the past couple of weeks I noticed a rattling noise under acceleration, and the garage have advised the exhaust manifold is leaking and needs replacing. I have been quoted £1,200 from Renault, but even they...

Hello All, Winston here, I live in N.Scotland and have changed from a Mk3 Golf Gti 16v. Collecting my Metallic Blue (unsure of exact name) 56 Plate 197 in a few weeks. It's in fairly decent condition, a few tiny car parks dings and marks but for a 12 year old its pretty good. It has had a few...

So I decided to make a little video...

Hi there, First post here have been browsing for a while. Motoring so far with this car has been pretty trouble free...But I suspected that I was just being lucky aha! Anyways I love my 197 and miss not been able to use it. So basically went to start my car yesterday and nothing.some sort of...

Hi- anyone know roughly how much a set of 197 pistons are worth on 85k and rings needing replacement? Thanks

I'm now a proud owner of an r27 f1 team! The car is the number 1864 and I think is a full spec... It's in an used condition but running pretty well and everything is working.

New-ish owner here, I'm Ronnie from stockport, just near manchester, late march i bought my liquid yellow R27, the plate is hy57 vrc (soon to be R27 LYX) as i just ordered a private plate. not the best start to ownership, owned it about a month but only had it on the road a few times due to...

Hi guys, I’m looking for recommendations on brake upgrades for my ‘06 197, front discs and pads (as I believe rears do next to nothing). So far it’s on OEM discs and upgraded pads. Mechanic I know thinks the cup setup is the way to go, agree/disagree? Car is only for track use. Mods done so...

Afternoon everyone, After spending the last 3 days driving up and down the country I’ve managed to swap some cash for this beautiful beast! The previous owner was very sad to see her go and after driving it for over an hour I really understand why. You just don’t get cars that look this...

Thought I'd say hello and show off the new car. Looking for some advice about speakers too because stock is so bad I'd rather not listen at all. Is there touch up paint or something for white alloys? One of the only things I'd say it needs doing really. That and the speakers! 13cm...

Thought i would share with you my (slow)progress over the past year! Hopefully a road trip this year and a track day or two. After owning a 1.2 for nearly 4 years and modifying stupidly like a ‘cool’ 18 year old i matured to a TT for just over a year. After regretting not buying a 197/200...

Hi there! Welcome to the progress thread on my 197 R27. I own the car for a few weeks now and still really enjoying it. I wasn't specifically looking for a R27, but it had to be a 197. For budgetary reasons and I dislike the look of the 200 front. On the other hand, I preferred to have the Cup...

Hey guys, I just became the owner of a Black 2008 Renault Clio Sport 197. Picture: https://photos.app.goo.gl/ulcjWgGfZfdsDifC3

Afternoon all. I have just purchased new coils and plugs for the 197. I have been looking around for Ignition leads and wondered if you all have a certain supplier that you use and what recommended length is best? Here is a link to Demon Tweeks that I have found...

I'm looking to get a 197 (Coming from a 1.2 dynamique) in the next few days but wondering whether there are any major benefits/disadvantages with the two fan control styles short of just looks?: 'Digital' : Dials: Currently have the dials in my 1.2 (without the AC button obviously) but...
