2002 Renault Clio 172 sport review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Cockpit sounds like a bag of nails.
Strange creaking noise from drivers side suspension? when going over speed bumps.
Knocking noise from steering colum when Turing around in road.
Brakings squeak sometimes.
Strange grinding creeky noises when steering is on full lock.
Gearbox makes a knocking noise sometimes when put into 1st gear from neutral.
Lacks power sometimes when cold first pull away feels like somethings holding it back.
If anyone knows what these problems are or have experienced similar problems please let me know as I'm just about to get rid I have only had this car for 2000 miles!!!
All these problems have developed over the last few weeks.
General comments?
However these cars are all about power and that's what you get very very fast!!!
Just concerns me how well they are built
plus are they safe!!!
