How to Eliminate Whistles and Noises on the Renault Clio IV

Model: Renault Clio Clio IV, MK 4, Clio 4 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Checks and maintenance

A very annoying problem with the Renault Clio IV is the noises that mainly come from the front windows, between the deflector triangle and the window. The bar that holds the deflector (let's call it that) does not press sufficiently against the seal. You need to place a spacer between the bar and the seal to stop it vibrating; a common window sealing sponge will suffice. Remove the bar, which comes off easily by hand (gently). Apply the adhesive sponge and refit the plastic on the window. Very simple, and now the noise will be eliminated! A straightforward job that anyone can do.

How to Repair the Key Spring of the Peugeot 207?

Over time, frequent use of the key's flip mechanism in the vehicle, dozens of times a day, inevitably leads to wear of the internal spring. As shown in this video, replacing the spring is quite simple and takes little time. After opening the casing halfway, first position the key, then the spring housing, and finally insert the spring into the previously mentioned housing. Close the casing by rotating it clockwise, ensuring all components fit perfectly, and test the key's flip mechanism.
