How to replace the front suspension arm on a Renault Clio II

Model: Renault Clio Clio 2, MK 2 - Years 1998-2005
Part: Suspension system

In this video we can see how to replace the front suspension arm of a Renault Clio II: first we remove the front wheel and lift the car, then remove the wheel arch to create space, clean the bumper reinforcement fixings with a wire brush and WD-40; unscrew the fixing elements of the bumper reinforcement bracket, and then clean all the arm joints, then unscrew the front arm fixing device. Now we can unscrew the stabilizer bar fixing elements, and remove it. Clean the fixing element that connects the ball joint to the steering knuckle and then unscrew and remove it, if necessary with a hammer and chisel. We can remove the shaft; clean all the seats well and install the new shaft, using only new bolts and nuts; connect the lower arm to the steering knuckle. If necessary, support the arm with a jack and screw all the fixings. Then screw the rear bracket to the auxiliary frame, then tighten the fixing element to the rear suspension arm. Install the bumper reinforcement bar, tighten the stabilizer bar connecting bracket, apply copper grease to the contact area between the brake disc and the wheel and then clean the brake disc with a specific detergent. Put the tire back on and lower the car.

If the central locking system of the Volkswagen Golf 4 is not working, it is likely necessary to reset the system: to do this, open the driver's door and detach the side panel of the dashboard next to the steering wheel. Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14.
