    Boot light strangeness

    My boot light isn't working. I've checked the bulb which is fine and wiring which is plugged in. My next thought was the boot latch. However when I open the boot, the other interior lights come on, which seems like normal behaviour, and leads me to believe that the switch is working. Anything...

    Window and mirror switch illumination

    Should the window and mirror controls light up with the rest of the interior lights? If not, does anyone know if Clio II controls have internal bulbs, as they seem to be interchangeable with the Twingo parts?

    Changing the speedometer to kph

    Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I can confirm that the process is as follows: 1/ With the ignition turned off, push and hold the trip computer button at the end of the wiper control stalk. 2/ Turn the ignition key to position 2, whilst continuing to hold the trip computer...

    Anyone interested in swapping their 16" wheels for 17"?

    Don't suppose anyone would like a set of silver 17 inch cup wheels, recently refurbished, in exchange for a set of the standard 16 inch wheels and tyres? I find the ride too hard for my liking on the bigger wheels.

    Changing the speedometer to kph

    Is there any way to change the units displayed on the digital dash, or does it require a trip to a dealer?

    Standard exhaust tip finisher

    Can anyone tell me if the standard exhaust tip finisher is removable, or is it welded to the pipe?

    B pillar stickers

    Has anyone replaced the textured black stickers on the rear edge of the doors? Mine are starting to look a little tired. If so, was it a difficult job to remove them, and were the replacements available from Renault?

    Suspension noise on full steering lock

    That's interesting to know, what age/mileage is your car? I get the impression that it's best not to worry too much about the odd strange noise / flashing light on these cars!

    Suspension noise on full steering lock

    I'll check the tyres, pretty sure they're the standard size though. Were you asking about the steering with a view to suggesting the steering rack? Any other areas people think I should focus on? I'm thinking a more thorough investigation by my mechanic might be warranted. It only happens...

    Suspension noise on full steering lock

    No not overly. The car is a 2009 with 46k miles.

    Suspension noise on full steering lock

    My twingo RS (with the 17 inch wheels) sometimes makes a hollow clunk type noise from the front suspension when driving over a pothole or speedbump whilst turning tightly at low speed. During the last MOT the tester found no issues or play in any of the suspension components. Any ideas what it...

    Replacement Gearknob

    Does the Gearknob just pull off? And as far as replacements go, there seems to be two types out there, one long and one short, do both styles fit? And are they all just push fit?

    Renault Sport Twingo Handbook Supplement

    Does anyone know where to get the Twingo RS specific handbook supplement, the smaller manual with all the RS specific info? I tried eBay with no luck, and then tried the dealer but it's no longer available. Anyone have an extra one lying around?

    Interior light upgrade

    Does anyone know if the interior light from the Clio 3, with the two additional maplights, works in the Twingo? It's the same size, but I'm curious if it has a different wiring connector to power the additional bulbs, or if it's a straight swap.
