How to replace the rear suspension spring of the Renault Clio III.

Model: Renault Clio MK 3, Clio 3, Clio III - Years 2005-2013
Part: Suspension system

In this video, we will see how to change the rear suspension spring of the Renault Clio III: we need to lift the rear of the vehicle and remove the rear wheels. Then we will need to place a support under the shock absorber to prevent it from falling; we remove the lower fixing bolt and take out the spring. Next, we clean the area well with a metal brush and some WD-40, and then we can put the spring back in place. We will have obtained the springs, for example, on eBay with the code 256190605049 at a price of 44.99 euros per pair, with free shipping. We position the seals and set the spring in place, then we reposition the lower fixing bolt that we had removed earlier, after realigning the hole with the vehicle. We can move to the other side, then we reassemble the wheels and lower the vehicle.

How to Reset the Central Locking of the Volkswagen Golf 4?

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. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
