Clio overrated

How long you had it? Take it back and tell them it's not fit for purpose

^^ this.. And if they won't have it get trading standards onto them

You forgot "Clio Elbow" :eek:

Pretty much the only thing I hate about doing distances in the car.

This does work. I had a 182 a couple of years back for 6 weeks and got a full refund as it had loads of faults and I claimed it wasn't fit for purpose. You'll need to be very persistent though, took me 3 weeks to get them to do it. But, it is an option should you wish.

10k in three years? I'd say that's part of the problem. These cars like to be driven properly, 3.5k a year isn't properly!

It's from renault Holden in norwich norfolk ... Is the megane rs just as problem prone ?

Had my clio 200 cup (59 plate) a couple of weeks now, it's only coverd 10,000 miles and I've had so many problems with it:

1) air bag light has a mind of its own.
2)the key card has played up
3) there is a knock when I turn the steering wheel right
4)the a slurping/splashing noise coming from the engine
5)drove to work to day to find that when I go into 4th I get a loud crunch
6)it runs like **** in the morning for about 5 mins
So the car is going into morrow to address these problems. Do I actually want it back? I'd there other "common" faults to look out for

Is the glovebox ok? if you send it back can i swop it for mine please?
