    200: Gurgling water noise behind dash

    Morning mate! I had exactly the same issue on my Clio, sound like someone chucking a litre bottle of fluid behind the center console! I took mine to Renault to go into for diagnostics and they found my coolant leak was a crack on the thermostat housing. Replaced the thermostat housing and all...

    Liquid Yellow touch up paint

    Apologies, only just seen this. I've a chipex touch up kit which I've not used as yet. Otherwise I'd previously bought some off a retailer on eBay which seemlingly doesnt exist anymore... the match was decent but the paint had dried up by the time I required a secondary use! Purchased the...

    Squeaking from brakes

    Pretty much spot on to what I’m hearing yes! Squealing constantly like that round tight-ish corners... perfectly fine going straight!

    Ross LY 200

    It’s a car that’s brought me so much enjoyment! I don’t think there can be many cars that will put as much of a smile on my face as that thing! Speaking with my dad about it, and the 197’s/200’s just don’t really make that much money at the minute... and my dad talks of cars he owned when he...

    Quick update on the Clio from the past couple of month. Last update the Clio was pending a new gearbox, of which thanks to Mitch @ Pro-Line Motorsport this has been cured. I'd grown so used to crunching into 3rd, it almost felt weird having the gear engaged super smooth! Even now I still wince...

    Recaro Tilt Release Cable

    Apologies, only just seen this! I have exactly the same problem, of which the part is about £40 from memory. I've not fixed mine as yet, as it's not often I have rear passengers. I've been told it's not too difficult of a job, you remove the base of the seat held in by 4 screws, and should be...

    Beanys RB 200 cup

    Good write up Chris! Can vouch for how good your car is performing on track after Snetteron! sounds amazing, engines sweet as a nut, and you seem to have more confidence in your car as a driver! It seems like the tuition at Snetterton before I turned up was quite beneficial! Can’t fault the...

    My first RS197

    Not the worst result, park the new clutch aside until you know it’s time to replace it?

    Thanks for the kind words all! @sevenfourate thanks Syer, hope all is well with your Clio, are you still advertising for sale? It’s fate if you ask me that the sale fell through previously! I feel I’ve really nurtured this car through ownership but it’s all about keeping the car maintained as...

    Time for an update, as I feel plenty has happened in the past 4 months of ownership! I'll try and keep it as short and sweet as possible! So in my last update I was looking to refurb my alloys, and source some Recaros! Both of which have now been done. Over Christmas I had a spare set of...

    Little bit of slop when pulling away...

    Best approach with trial and error, until its set out how you want it! See how the car feels and take it from there! I've swapped out all the mounts, and it made a huge difference to the feel of the car. Made everything feel much 'tighter', although for myself the vibrations have never eased up...
