I could be wrong, but I believe that model of clio is fitted with electric power steering. The electric motor is fitted inside the car on the steering column. If there is a problem with the steering it will need to be checked by a renault dealer. The power steering motor thermal cut out is a common issue.

check brake pads, they might be worn out.

White smoke: White smoke is caused by water and or antifreeze entering the cylinder, and the engine trying to burn it with the fuel. If white smoke is present, check to see if the proper amount of antifreeze is inside the radiator and the overflow bottle. Also check to see if antifreeze has contaminated the engine oil. You can look at the engine oil dipstick, or look at the under side of the engine oil filler cap. If the oil is contaminated with antifreeze, it will have the appearance of a chocolate milkshake. Do not start the engine if the oil is contaminated with antifreeze, as serious internal engine damage can result.

It is also possible to be a engine problem you should immediate visit a car service.

Check the length of the bolts (118.5mm max) stage 1- 20 Nm, stage 2- 20Nm, stage 3- 100deg +-6deg, stage 4- 100deg +-6deg and for the cam sprocket 45Nm, camshaft stage 1- 8Nm, stage 2- 12Nm, inlet manifold to motorhead: upper part 9Nm lower part 21Nm, exhaust manifold to motorhead 18Nm

I'll need a bit more information please. Exactly which light is this? Brake light, Tail light, Fog light, Reverse light? When exactly do they stop working? Do they fail as you turn them on or while you are driving? The easiest starting point here is to look at the light fitting itself and the block connector fitting to it. There could be a dirty or damaged wire causing the lights to 'short' out and stop working. As they sometimes work it is probably not a fuse problem. If you know how to use a multimeter you can test for power from the wires. Please comment below with more information and i'll try to help you more.

If this is on a UK vehicle the first place to look is the lower right hand corner of the windscreen, looking from the outside. There should be a copy of it visible just under the glass. Another place to look is down in the step area on the driver's side, (Right side of the vehicle as you drive). Open the door on the right side of the vehicle. On the lower step 'kick' panel, (the area usually hidden by the closed door), there should be a small rectangular plastic cover plate. It should hook out using a small screwdriver to reveal the VIN.

ie, head bolt torque.. chances are they are in the 50-60 ft pound range.
