clio diesel
Re: clio diesel
well funny you should say that, i have been coveting one of my clients modern datsun which has been sat in his shed for several years.. i may even make a cheeky offer on it soon.. even if it might cause wifey to have a meltdown & kick me out
meanwhile in the land of clio, after much swearing at stupid turbo pipes & loss of even more skin, the starter has been refitted, tested & seems to be working. i even reset the clock & put the code into the radio

Well done mate, I'd have set it afire or weighed the thing in!
How modern is the Datsun?Sir Lionel Seldom-Upright wrote:"Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's Datsun, but his wife's fair game."

Re: clio diesel
started clio last night, & guess what, new relay jammed & starter was spinning on its own.. in the time it took me to find an 8mm spanner to disconnect the battery smoke was pouring out from under the bonnet.. still i can get the thing off in under an hour now!

If ever there was a car that tried to tell its owner something, then this must be it! The thing clearly wants to die in flames. Let it happen and move on..

You don't have much luck with automotive electronics Rich. Maybe it's time to hang up your spanners and use a gallon of unleaded and a match to solve all the cars issues

Re: clio diesel

i hate car electrics!! they tested the original& it worked i have fitted a brand new one to test if its the car or the starter... i can fit one in record time now but with the usual amount of blood loss...found myself looking longingly at one of these yesterday..
