Hey guys, just wondering if anyone owns or has owned a Megane R26? I've been toying with the idea of buying a Megane since having a test drive in a Megane R26R. I absolutely loved the R26R, just the noise alone is amazing! but it's a little unpractical for everyday driving, which is what I would...
I loved the Trophy and thoroughly enjoyed my 12 months with it, but one lazy Saturday afternoon I read about the Clio 200's top-5 finish in eCOTY and casually trundled down to the local Renault Garage to see what all the fuss was about.
Three days later I placed my order.
There has been a lot...
Ok, there's good news and bad news. I'll start with the good, so I can delay the inevitable lol. I LOVE these tyres. I fitted them at the beginning of December. I've used them through snow, ice, rain, you name it. They start well from cold for a track tyre. A bit of wheel spin in snow and ice...
Ok, I know my front camber and toe is out, as i had the dampers done. I haven't got round to doing it yet due to snow etc. I have noticed a knock while steering. It happens when you turn the steering wheel while stationary, or during low speed manouvering. Its not always in the same position of...
My Girlfriend has bought me a pair of Sabelt 3 Point bolt in Harnesses for Christmas so ill have a go at fitting them over the holidays.
I just want to know what you guys did to stop the seatbelt beep noise going off. I think the options are to either source a seat belt clip from another clio...
Right this is really doing my head in!!!! over the past month or so I have this knocking coming from the rear....I have removed and refitted the rear konis god knows how many times, tried different settings. Had a look at the exhaust to see if its touching anywhere, checked the bumper etc etc...
I've noticed recently that on full lock when parking my T it seems to make a knocking sound. I think it might be a tipical C.V. joint stretching sound on full lock? I do need to get both the front struts serviced ASAP could it be anything to do with them? Any ideas what it could be?
Just recently my T has started making a few knocks and bangs, I have (what sounds like) the exhaust banging against the bumper when I go over any uneven road surface - but I don't think it is this due to the exhaust not moving much when you push it. Will have to investigate more!
But I was...
My original exhaust is pretty much rotten through now, and the left back box is rattling plus the clamp holding the cat to the main system is rotten and strangely has somehow become loose so that it rattles too?!
I've been looking around at what to replace it with and not really sure which way...

S**t the Yozza is loud!! Started it in my garage with the doors shut the day after it had been fitted (at 6:30am) think I might of woke the entire village. It definatly livened me up that early in the morning.
Its been on a couple weeks now and i am lot more pleased...
I recently fitted Brembo Max fronts adn standard rears with red stuff all round,(awaits the slating of red stuff, lol).
For the first 300miles or so they were fine with easy breaking. After that i decided i would try giving them some hard breaking just to see how good they were. They were...
I've been looking in the garage pages of the forum under modifications and I've noticed that quite a few owners have removed the acoustic valve. What does it do? What is the advantage of removing it? and where is it?
I've had my trophy for a while now but only recently fitted a K&N panel...
Evening All,
My drivers seat has started to develop a rattle. I've read various posts about this being a fault in the seat runners but does anyone know what the definitive answer is or how to cure it as I can't find it!?
Whenever I brake or go over a largish bump there is a clicking noise like...
.........seems to worse when manouvreing along my road in the mornings but not 100% sure what it is! Suspension still feels tight to an extent (although paranoid shocks need refurb), thought it may be a rear bearing?
Any ideas?
Hi guys
Been using the carbon lorraine pads for the past few weeks but still find them very noisy. Can anybody recommend a good all round pad thats good for normal and fast road use that wont cost the earth? Wont use them on track as have the carbons still which i find excellant apart from...
I have had a little knocking sound coming from the rear of the car for the passed week. I haven't a clue what it can be? At 1st it started off as a little rattle noise (like the rear parcel shelf or plastic) but after a good check I found nothing!
Thought it might have been the new rear koni's...
Hi folks, just put some carbon loraine pads on with new discs a few days ago, they are well bed in by now. Ive heard that they are noisy but you cant live with the sound of them. is there anyway you can quiet them down apart from only using them on track days????
A couple of people have had a look at my car,as they believe that the drop-link/anti-roll bar? bush has perished on the driver's side. and as a result when the car is driven, there is a loud creaking noise whenever the steering wheel is turned.
We've had a feel around, and where the anti-roll...
Hiya all,
am looking for a set of these as my next compromise road tyre. I am having a hard time finding them in Trophy size, any tips?
Camskills do them but are out of stock ATM.
Cheers,
Hello all!
I'm André, i have a Clio 182 and decided to register here after seeing a video on youtube from a swiss trophy owner that mencioned this forum.
since i already know that at least one swiss his here, and i'm sure that there are others, perhaps someone could answer some questions i...
Afternoon chaps,
After taking the motor out for a spin this afternoon, i noticed after, a squeaking noise coming from what sounds like the steering rack etc... leading down to the wheels. Almost like the same creaking noise as when a bed goes.
I then stopped, and turned the wheel when i was...
Okay,
So me and some friends were fitting the Maxogen induction kit and had to stop part way through as it was getting a bit dark and we need a smaller socket tool which we didn't have.
The problem I have is the bonnet refuses to now open after it was closed. I let it shut as normal then...
