    so it wasnt the head gasket mush? thats good news if not, but you muppet for thinking it in the first place you should do it old skool like me and just put the oil in and let the engine warm a bit to seal the gasket before putting coolant in ect, just to be sure its sealed properly

    weird. I've never had an oil leak once my old valver was rebuilt nor did it burn oil or leak any water for the rest if the time i had it (about 10months). I don't know what their new clio's are like although I have been told they go through exhausts and engine mounts like nothing else. I have replaced several Coil Packs on the newer clio's aswell, they don't seem to clever. One clio had 21K on the clock and a coil pack went down I do rate the mk1's though for total fun!
