Saw this on ebay recently and thought "I always wanted a red phase 1".
The engine had been recently rebuilt, recent respray and it looks to all be their minus the turbo Heatshield
I won the auction and off I went to collect it, a 5 hour round trip
Well, the respray isn't upto par. The...
So I picked up a MONACO a few weeks ago! I had 2 of these 25 years ago and been keeping my eyes open for a 1.7 manual!
picked it up during hurricane Jorge and 400 miles trip! Home and start the investigations!
new cam belt and water pump for starters then a carb strip and clean to get running...
I purchased this recently, it was labeled incorrectly and definitely not for a renault 5 as advertised.
It appears to be a r21 lockset, one key, 4 barrels and a clip
Free to who ever needs it, just cover postage
I know i did this back in August 2019 and bailed on selling, and put it back up again, sold it and then purchased it back but here is the amended advert. I need to tighten the belt a little and with 4 cars on the go i should really let this go to someone who can have more fun with it than me...
Along the same lines of Duncan's welding thread, lets have some painting tips (not from me, i'm shit, I need the tips lol)
I haven't used a paint gun for 20 years or more, when my first go was pretty disastrous. However, I recently bought her a new Clio on the cheap with a busted bumper so I...
reluctant sale of the 21 turbo, this was a project i bought some years ago with the view to get this back on the road again but circumstances have now dictated otherwise. car was originally grey and has been painted white(could do with doing again really but isnt too bad) it had new tyres...
Hello again. Thanks again for your help.
My car has a transmission cooler (basic heat exchanger) that is still connected to the gearbox but is not connected to the radiator.
I cannot see any way in which it was once connected. I wonder if anyone else has come across one and can determine how...
Thanks all for your help so far in getting my sleeping R21 TXE auto working. Having now got the engine to run properly with the only correct PTC coolant sensor available in the world (!), and a very expensive PTC air temp sensor from Germany, I'm now trying to sort a problem with the cooling...
Hello.
I'm looking for the correct type of air intake and coolant temperature sensors for our 1987 Renault 21 TXE.
I used to get a good parts supply from Whitehouse Renault in Tunbridge Wells - they could get legacy stock in and could read chassis and oval plate numbers. But not sure they...
The dreaded sun roof and it’s leaks and just looks rubbish in my opinion.
Been doing abit of research and yes you can bodge a none sun roof model skin on there but wouldn’t a carbon fibre one look incredible.
I’ve asked a few companies and obviously they can do this but at a cost.
Each...

Hi everyone, i found a cheap Laguna 2 2003 2.0T 163hp that i need help with some questions.
they said that they have the old Sagem 2000 system in this cars and the newer Sagem 3000 in 2005-2007 170hp. And the old Sagem 2000 system is hard to remap.
My questions is then: Can you remap the old...
Group buy on R21 Sill repair panels. I have already developed, trialled, and fitted these, and had 3 sets (12 panels) made which are already sold - this is for the second batch.
They are designed to replace the lower half of the sills which is what commonly rots out. You cut the old sill off...
Hello Guys, New here. Happy New year to all......
Ive joined to maybe get some insight on an engine I've listed on Ebay. I purchased it years ago for a project which never got going, I stripped it ready for rebuild and that was it!
Although everything on the engine was from a turbo, the block...
Happy New Year to everyone.
Can anybody assist with photos or information on how and where the phase 1 metal heat shield is mounted. Had all brackets redone with my turbo 2 parts and it’s the last bit of the build now.
I got some really helpful photos from Chris Smith but now trying to work...
So with all the great welding action and some proper knowledge on here thought it best to have rolling thread to track advice and highs / lows of fixing old french tin :cool:
