    Which stainless exhaust??

    I need to replace my standard exhaust as it's making all sorts of farting, rattling and generally renault-like noises. Ive been looking at the RS192 vs Yozza debate and had a look at some you tube vids but they all sound a bit on the loud side. I'm really after something that isn't much louder...

    Loud creaking from boot area.

    Done a search and I think I may be the first one to report on this! My Trophy has developed a loud creaking from the rear of the car over the past couple of months, I thought it could have been the interior trim in the boot, or the boot lock and rubber stops, but i've tried replicating the...

    No Seatbelt Warning

    My girlfriend has the slightly odd habit of putting her seatbelt on about a mile after the car has moved off (no, I have no idea why either). I know from driving other Clios that sitting in the driver’s seat with no seatbelt on quickly causes the car to start making noises of great...

    Squeeking noise!

    Loud squeek coming from front of car. Seems to me it's coming from near side suspension. (pushing down rapidally on bonnet suggests this too!)More it's driven in one stint the worse it gets. Anybody had such problems? :roll:
