i was feeling sorry for the clio so iv ordered a front bumper,front grill and new n/s/f wing to sort the damage out.
took it out for a blast today and the injection light came on and i misfired all the way home :evil:

That sucks man

My dad's 172 Cup got a misfire lastweek.
Turned out, the gasket for the breather on top of the Cam cover was leaking and pissing oil down into the recess for Plug 4.
Changed the plugs yesterday to find a socket's depth of oil down there

Might be worth checking....also, the bolts for said breather assembly...Shear, bloody easily :roll:

Aw that's not good! If you need another pair of hands let me know!
