Hello all,
Firstly apologies I know this is quite a common issue with these cars and it's been posted a few times. But I didn't get the results I needed from those so seeking some fresh help.
The story so far, I brought a 1.2 16v Clio sport mk2 nearly a year ago, let's say she needed some love. I fixed her up and running sweet as. I gave this car to my now ex wife, who after 3 months didn't want it as it wasn't nice enough looking for her. She now has a fiat punto:grin2:.
So I intended initially to sell it, but couldn't. So I'm now going to sell my VW which I hate and drive this beast.
Like I say it was running well but has since sat for at least 6months. Upon moving her for the first time I notice it has developed a leak (maybe the sunroof issue) as the foot well had enough water in it. God know how long that's been going for.
Now after running a few times it's running really rough. Checked the plugs, added fresh fuel, changed the coil pack and generally looking for loose wires and such. Still there, my simple code reader says 'random/multiple misfires detected'.
So I've used forums before and find them the best source for aiding fault finding. So any ideas? Could it be water related? I have a new cam belt to put on soon but would like to suss this out first. Any help will be GREATLY appreciated!!!!
