    I had a look in eBay, a few in very Eastern Europe but nothing local. I have sent a request to a Renault specialist breakers, fingers crossed

    Alarm unit fault Clio 200

    Hi all. I have had a fault develop several weeks ago where my hazard lights started going off on their own. I could switch them off, but after a few minutes they started again. After getting some advice from here and Two Techs, I have checked the passenger side multi plug which is clean and dry...

    Possible alarm unit fault Clio 200

    There is a multi plug which connects the loom to the alarm unit. After I reconnected the battery this morning, the hazards were flashing and could not be switched off. As soon as I disconnected the alarm multi plug, the hazards stopped flashing. Everything seems to work fine now including the...

    Possible alarm unit fault Clio 200

    I have checked the battery with my DVM. I have 12.4v at rest after a few hours since last running, 14.3v with engine running and 12.8v after turning off the engine. I'm not saying it couldn't be the battery, but I had none of these issues when the original battery died which was obviously...

    Possible alarm unit fault Clio 200

    The battery is fairly new and it turns over fine. Everything seems to work fine with it disconnected. I have just spoken to Renault UK who do not recognise the part number 4B7887R1A which is printed onto the casing, and is identical to all of the other pictures I have seen. They also said they...

    The definitive OEM suspension thread?

    I have recently had both front springs replaced on my '59 plate Clio 200 Cup. It was one of the first cars off the production line I would guess, delivered in September 2009. The springs had blue/orange markings like the pic above. One of the springs broke with a loud bang reversing off the...

    Recommendation needed - service near London

    I second TwoTechs. Used them a few times and travelled 50 miles each way to get there. Very friendly and they know their stuff.

    Apologies new lights won't turn off thread

    The UPC is basically a relay and fuse box, under the airbox intake. The headlight relay is fitted here, but you can't remove it to replace if it goes faulty....

    Apologies new lights won't turn off thread

    To answer my own question, the UPC has been replaced and the issue seems to have been resolved. Might come in handy for someone else another time.

    Apologies new lights won't turn off thread

    Hi everyone. I have had a look around but not found anything for my issue yet. I went out this morning to find my Clio 200 Cup with a dead battery. Having put the battery on charge, it started fine, but I noticed the headlights were on. Having had a quick online search, I don't have auto lights...

    Black satin Speedline part number

    Hi guys, thanks for the replies. I would feel a bit cheeky contacting renault parts direct for the code when I am not passing any business their way tbh. The wheels are in pretty good nick and I am reluctant to risk anything else going wrong by refurbing them all. The wheel in the link is the...

    Black satin Speedline part number

    Hi everyone. I have just had 2 new front tyres on my 2009 200 Cup, and the main dealer has scraped the s**t out of one of the wheels whilst doing so, despite my plea for them to be careful. They are going to replace the wheel, but seem unsure on what wheel it is. Does anyone have the part...

    Best Place for Belts Service in Mid-South England?

    I took my car to Two Techs in Dartford. They are very friendly and helpful guys, and a good price. I read some good recommendations beforehand, and I had my clutch bled there a while before having the belts done. Everything appears to have gone fine. I live over 50 miles away, worth it if I feel...

    Anyone used Hardings Hemel Hempstead?

    Thanks guys. The thing stopping me is the anti corrosion warranty checks. I had something dealt with when new, and a written letter acknowledging the fact, so they cant pretend they dont know. As I'm likely to be keeping it for some time and I had a Mk3 Golf, I have a bit of a rust phobia!!

    Anyone used Hardings Hemel Hempstead?

    Hi everyone. My Clio 200 Cup is up for its 6 year service, which I know includes belts. I used to go to DGL Garages in High Wycombe, but that appears to have closed down. I rang for a quote, as according to my service book I am due oil and filter, air filter and pollen filter. The chap tried...
