    Tyres

    Guys, General thoughts on tyres. I noticed the other day my rear tyres are seriously cracked, I think they look like the orginal PE2. They still have plenty of tread on them, but doubt very much they will pass the MOT in June ? I know there is a sticky on tyre choice on here. Getting hold of...

    Black seatbelts?

    Does anyone know if any other Clios came with black seatbelts? Mine are really grubby and won't clean up, so I thought would be a good mod if an easy swap.

    Pressure washer - any recommendations?

    Hello All My old Karcher is now in the bin, it lasted around 3-4 years of occasional use. Bit rubbish. Can anyone recommend a brand/make for ~£100? I only use it to wash the car. Many thanks Mark

    Michelin Contacts?

    Does anyone have any contacts at Michelin? Preferably in product development, manufacturing or supply chain. Customer services or marketing better avoided. Looking at Michelin's current UK range the Pilot Exalto PE2 (for the Sports and Roadster segment so they say) is still available in...

    Cold weather hiccup

    My car has always struggled to start on the first go in cold weather. Usually one turn of the key fires then dies, second turn is an instant startup. I have never worried much about it, I just assumed that it was some kind of fuel pressure / priming sort of thing going on. The only other...

    Creaking suspension noise from drivers side sachs damper

    My trophy's recently started making a creaking noise which looks to be coming from the drivers side suspension. You can hear it when driving over any slight bumps in the road and especially over speed bump. Also today noticed what must be a slow puncture as the pressure on this tyre was down to...

    A couple of slight issues with 224

    Morning everyone, have a couple of issues i'd like to ask everyone about before I start throwing money at her. First off and in fact the most annoying thing about the car at the moment is the speaker surrounds. All they do is bloody vibrate! I've tried turning the music up, down, wedging things...

    Swapping wheels from 1 axle to another

    Swapped my rears to the front as treads heading towards 3mm. That way I can replace them ASAP and put the new ones back on the back for winter. Wondering if this was wise as car feels very odd! Had balancing done on them but since then car still seems to wander more. Wondering if the tyres...

    Ride Quality

    I've recently had my dampers re-furbished with BG Motorsport and had them fitted earlier this week. I know the ride is firm, but I certainly don't remember it being this harsh; I can feel even the tiniest of bumps in the road and it's bone shaking to say the least. Another thing I've noticed...
