Ooooo is this my car being compared?

Do you know who carried out the cambelt work?

I'm in Suffolk.. but I always make the trip to Engine Dynamics (Colchester area), who are a well know Clio Sport Specialist. I know my cars are in safe hands! There is a Renault Trained Mechanic (and former 172 owner) who has his own garage/unit in Lowestoft called R & S Autoservices...

Hello Matt, Welcome Aboard! You should find lots of helpful info regarding track cars/modifications on the forum. Good Luck with the search!

it lost my reply.., A big long reply.,, might be arsed to type it again sometime...

Wow! That's good to hear! That's your Monaco.... I have a Monaco on 60,000 that's pretty standard and I'm planning on sorting the bodywork too. Whilst the cars are for "me"..I'll run the turinis (love Turini's) and keep the minor cosmetic changes but for the purpose of selling, I could swap...

I have kept all original items so the car can easily be back to "original" (i even have the brake hoses). It's still got its orange indicator lenses! Thanks for your valuation/advice... very interesting...

Price Guide for Clio 172 2002 Pearl Black. 45,000 genuine miles, good service history & all mots etc.. Freshly powder coated silver Turini's (including Turini spare) all with new mich Ps3's! New Tpi wheel bolts. Cambelt/alt kit/dephaser/water pump and minor service carried out three weeks ago...

So last week the "good" black 172 had a trip to Engine Dynamics for Cambelt, dephaser, waterpump and alt belt kit. Plus oil and filter change and vehicle inspection. I also had fitted, a new dog bone, gearbox mount, engine mount and goodridge braided brake hoses. It came back also having had...

Fitted the Monaco with four new fuel injectors and both oxygen sensors today. It's running so damn sweet!

hmmmm....... just be aware, sometimes a fairly good, competent mechanic whos great with most cars can c**k these up.. If they dont use the correct tools, the timing will be wrong....

Don't let Davyy get his hands on it!! But seriously... cambelt needs to be done with the correct tools and by a specialist

Sounds good! If the belts are being done, make sure its by someone using the correct genuine Renault Cambelt tools... and someone who knows what they are doing!! or what Davyy said... that's what I would do personally..! id get it to a specialist

Don't forget to add some pics of 182 when you finally collect! Has it got much history.. belts been done? etc..

incase its something you would like in the future..... Snappy Mobile: 07960 413706, Snappy prefers text messages. And he is a very busy chap, always in demand, so you may have to wait for a response!

and ladies... ;)

He has a profile on here.. but its best to text his mobile if you want to discuss a steering wheel refurb. Once arranged, send him your steering wheel (or spare) and get a leather refurb.. There is a thread on here called Snappy wheels or something.... lots of pics of his work! Steering...

I searched your Reg no on the forum.... saw one post in "spotted" from 2011! Davvy .... you read my mind! was typing that as your message got added! But Snappy is the go to guy for steering wheel refurbishment! I've had 2 Snappy wheels, both spot on! Cost you about £140 ish (depending on...

Hi MJS84... Welcome To Cs! Think your getting a traditional welcome from the guys!

Let's hope it's trouble free motoring for a while! I've got one car currently with engine dynamics having cambelt, dephaser, new mounts the works! So I'm gonna be poor! And another I've just got injectors for!

Pleased it was a quick fix!

did you mean brand new sports ones are a good price? or new standard clio ones are cheap and cheerful? I want rid of sticky finish too...

Hmmm.... we need those more knowledgeable! I'm sure some of the more mechanical/tech members will have some suggestions for you soon. Hopefully something simple, fingers crossed :)

you have proof of the belts and dephaser work from a Renault Specialist?

Welcome To Cs! Good Luck in your search for a suitable 182
