If I move...

Hey guys, new here but I know there’s probably a post out there with this problem I just can’t find it. Got my first car a few weeks ago, not a lot of knowledge on cars but I’m learning as I go. Today I bought a new stereo and swapped it all out pretty easy, only thing is I’ve lost the use of...

Hello, Last night, when I arrived back home, I put the car into Park from Drive, but as I did so, the gear stick moved without any resistance at all and I instantly realised that something was wrong. It then seemed to get stuck in the "2" gear and I then couldn't move the stick at all. The car...

I have a 2004 1.2 Renault Clio Dynamique. When you are driving along in any gear all is well. The problem I have is a whining noise (just like the gearbox is on the way out) but only when you push forward on the gear stick when in 5th gear. Also at any speed, press the clutch down, select 5th...
