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.
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!!!
Mine does the same!! think that's just the build quality!!
Mine does as well... its french at the end of the day!! thinking of selling mine and getting a 1.8 turbo golf...
Sir, the sounds you mention seem to be from gearbox or engine supports. Check them and considering the age of your car and that it has a hard suspension it is likely that one or more can be broken. I changed to my 2003 V6 Laguna one of each and they cost arround 100 to 150 euros.
Hope this helps you to fix your Clio RS.

Have you heard of this problem before on clio 172?
The indicator light on my dashboard keeps flashing constantly even tho the indicator stalk is in the neutral position?
None of my bulbs are broken.
The only time the indicator stops flashing on my dashboard is when l take the indicator stalk from neutral and push it down to the turning left position!!
My car creaks when I accelerate at low rpm in lowish gears. Just the way they are I think!!!
