Absolutely fine, I've not really noticed a huge difference, the dogbone makes it feel like a different car. The upper engine mount on the LHS on mine was shot but the gearbox one was not too bad at all. On the dogbone the bigger bush was rather perished but still did its job.

Mine just stopped working completely and I also remember reading about the resistor pack. The motors are not a great deal from breakers but like you said, its making sure you get the right one. Hope you get it sorted.

Can the originals be re-gassed? I picked up a spare set some time ago from 'parts reunited' for £103.42 the pair and fitted in 2012 so probably at that stage where they may be due for replacement.

Has your blower packed up? Took mine out last summer and sprayed and cleaned all contacts and it has worked daily ever since.

Ideal, nicely done :)

Probably a bit too late now..... https://www.gumtree.com/p/renault/renault-clio-sport-182-ff-ly/1224781096

Checked mine and they needed replacing so done them this morning. Managed to get a set of Bosch ones from Eurocarparts for £16 with discount. Assume they are the same other than the Renault ones have the logo.

Did mine last year and amazed at how yellow the old one looks in comparison!

Just changed all 3 on mine, went for the Febi 'Kangoo' upper gearbox mount, a Twingo RS upper engine mount (Kangoo one below is the same) and an Evol dogbone mount. The Kangoo mounts are slightly stiffer than Renault RS OEM ones due to the movement of the diesel engine. Cannot rate Evol...

Anyone? Have finally got to the bottom of my rattle / vibration and appears the Janspeed is running too close to the heatshield and also has a hairline crack in it. Will be going for the straight through mid section if anyone has anything?

Wondering if we can get a small shock absorber resembling the Sachs damper and the spanner from Lego sets when I was a kid to compliment this model to the max!

Received with great thanks. Very great idea and the efforts on this forum amaze me, Best regards Daniel

Do you have the gearstick insert left?

Can always pop and grab it one lunch time if you are free? I was at your neck of the woods picking up an engine mount a few weeks ago and it was a great drive from Exeter. Thank you, Daniel

As per my post, does anyone have a spare spring they wish to sell in good condition? http://www.cliotrophy.co.uk/threads/oem-trophy-springs.53451/page-2

The 12.5mm tubing fits like a glove and with some boiling water and oil it slid onto the spring relatively easily. Wondering if anyone has a spare spring with little to no corrosion mainly on the bottom few coils? Happy to pay a price with postage if anyone does. My NS spring was rather...

Just paid, sorry for the delay.

Went for this in the end over the Eibach tubing and will have a go at fitting tomorrow as need to replace top mount bearings. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00OEZ7R1C/?tag=ctphy-21

Is it possible to have the original injectors cleaned?

The aux belt kit is approximately £60 and believe 2.2 hours labour on the official service times.

http://www.engine-dynamics.com/Servicing--Timing-Belts/cid319/Servicing--Timing-Belts.asp http://www.northwestperformance.co.uk/clio-cam-belts/ Dan @ SJM quoted £600 - £650 with the dephaser back in 2014.

I have had the dreaded aux belt failure but luckily I switched the car off bloody quick, be warned!!

Is this sarcasm that it should be done sooner, or yours is well overdue??

Important one being the aux belt kit (not just the belt) at 36k miles or 3 years whichever comes first - believe the service book says 5 years. Cam belt is 72k or 5 years. Standard oil and filter service is 12k miles.

I think most end up removing the rear shield completely, mine has the larger washers clamping it in place but I think yours is too far gone to salvage it. With the amount of rattling / vibration they cause I am half tempted to remove mine at some point.

Most of those items are reasonably cheap to source too but it all depends on what quality of part you want. I have recently gone a little mad with work done on mine but using various discount codes and a few trips to Renault it doesn't work out too expensive.

Wow that's a list but do it bit by bit and you will get there. What is the likely cause of the big end failure?
