    Would any of the initiated be able to confirm if this part number is the correct stuff for our cars please? Cheers

    Front washer pipe retaining clip

    Maybe a bit more to this bloody clip than initially thought, got this back from Renomotive- best bet would be trying to get someone to 3D print something as the clip is not designed to be pulled out from the face. Pretty much single use unfortunately. Without cutting up a bonnet to squeeze the...

    Front washer pipe retaining clip

    Been there and done it with the Trophy, have spent so much on the wee bastard in the last 4 years I'd like to catch a small break on only 2-3ft of rubber tubing I need though!

    Front washer pipe retaining clip

    Think the main issue here is the hose itself is just a bit too loose now on the washer nozzle nipple. Waiting on a response from a breaker for the retainer clip but can anyone recommend particular replacement hose? I've found this OEM stuff but £30 is taking the fuckin piss surely...

    Front washer pipe retaining clip

    I’ll have a nosey although I see Renparts are no longer on the go.

    Front washer pipe retaining clip

    Well silicone was a big fat waste of time. Have you had any joy yourself yet?

    Front washer pipe retaining clip

    I’m tempted to use a small blob of silicone.

    Front washer pipe retaining clip

    Any idea where to get replacement clips for this? Recently had the washer nozzles replaced and this one keeps popping out, it’s infuriating.

    Sill covers coming loose

    I'll give the bodyshop a shout to see exactly what they recommend as they've held absolutely no issue until now and that's with them coming off last year for a load of welding.

    Sill covers coming loose

    Ahhh now seeing all this I’ve worked it out. My rear arches were replaced 3 years ago and they don’t appear to come with the holes for these. I wonder if they’re still on the area towards the front ahead of where the new quarter panel finished.

    Sill covers coming loose

    I'm not certain how these were attached from new but it looks like the adhesive strip is weakening on my passenger side. It seems to sag in sunlight and then rise up again. Is there a recommended way for these to attach? (other than the screws along the bottom obviously...)

    Warning lights after storage

    Finally in the garage and it turns out it was the front right ABS ring being split in two!

    Sachs front suspension

    Yes I've used them twice, most recently late 2023 and their communication was crap, to the point I'd seriously consider elsewhere next time. I told Simon as much and he held his hands up but this is disappointing to hear.

    Warped scuttle panel

    Both edges of this stick up ever since it needed a wiper arm repair last year and it's been getting on my tits ever since. What would be the best way of getting this to stick back down without being too rough? Or do I just discreetly silicone it and ignore?

    Warning lights after storage

    Looks like it is indeed the sensor, or certainly the circuit and hopefully just the sensor itself...-

    Warning lights after storage

    Does the cruise control not get affected by and ABS sensor issue?

    Warning lights after storage

    Trophy came out the garage yesterday after having sat since November, pleased to say the engine is running sweet as a nut but the orange 'SERV', ABS and traction control lights are all lit up. I've left my bloody icarsoft in the Jag which is away getting fixed so any ideas what the likely...

    Cheers. They're outrageous value these days (especially in 4.2 guise) when you see the prices many other performance cars somehow command. Totally unaffected by inflated covid pricing.

    That's good to hear. I had a look to see if I could find what I'd previously sourced (mentioned above) and did not have any joy.

    SACHS DAMPERS REBUILDS

    I found rubber gaiters to fully go over the shock absorber eliminating the gap for shite to get into the shaft. I'll try and dig back in my posts when I get some time but have a look yourself too as I would have detailed the parts. I cable tied them in place so I can only hope they've stayed...

    RenaultSport Clio 182 Trophy - £15,500

    I’d be holding firm on the price given the one on the pistonheads auction just went for over 22 grand.

    What is this part?

    Thanks, that would make sense given where I found it and what they were doing. I wish people paid more attention to what they were doing when it comes to reattaching seals and trim!
