Twingo General

fuck. if only the twingo had a engine temperature gauge

Well, normally it should warn you if shit gets too hot but I don't know where that sensor is placed in a Twingo.

Lets assume that valve is defective like in my Escort. In my car the water temperature went up to fucking max which in your Twingo SHOULD be indicated with that little warning light.
The problem is, if the sensor is in the cooling circuit that doesn't get the hot water because of the valve, the car is fucked but that would be idiotic so I assume the sensor would be before the valve.
Anyways, look around a bit under the hood and online, maybe you find the solution. Again, sorry that I can't help much but I still lack hands-on experience myself and I'm still learning

Real question, I always wondered this. Would the Twingo be a good car to 'GT-R' if Renault wanted to? Let's say they threw in the 1.8L, 150HP Clio engine, turbo'd it, and made a custom AWD system to compete in Group A racing alongside the JEE TEE ARU. Would the Twingo have made it?

Thermostat.

>Does it only overheat when it's 40°C and you're driving or when you're idling?

it was 15C that night, my dad told me its because I'm using too low of a gear(where im a new driver hes just assuming im doing shit to it).

I parked it to pick him up the engine had heat waves coming out of it no smoke, no smell of burnt rubber.

On the way back he drives, engine is no longer warm, BUT 10 mins later does smell of burnt rubber inside the cabin. Engine is not hot when we park.

no light ever came on except for the electric one (next to engine light on your pic), the exhaust fan does work because it has came on once before when I was driving it.

I would have replaced all the fluids in it, but like i said it aint my car, and right now i dont have any tools or money to do it with.

I just found this gem

HELL NO.

I mean, it would be fun as heck but the car certainly reached its safety limits with the 75hp engine.
You see plebs wrapped around trees in their MK1 Twingos FUCKING EVERYWHERE.
They usually have really thin wheels on, people who drive first gen Twingos are also often poor and run bald rubber and those shits can get tailhappy really quickly.

If they put more than 75hp in these, they would have gotten in SERIOUS trouble because soccermoms would brand Twingos as deadly rockets. There's no other car class in which cars have to be idiot proof as the class the Twingo is in and believe it or not, 75hp were already pushing it with the way the Twingo was set up.

he's right. I went 35kmh on a curve merging into the highway, i regretted it immediately, but im still learning how to drive
