Hi Guys,
I used this company recently and thought i would recommend them
They do:
- Full resprays/ custom spraying
- Scratch Repairs
- Crash damage
Bradley has worked on ferrari's/ porsche's etc and done a great job on my clio 172 mk1 (crash damage repair).
He only charges £70 per panel...
Looking at modding my phase 1 172 up a bit more.
It has:
RS Tuner Re-Map
Full Scorpion Exhaust
Clio 172 Cup Gearbox - Shorter Gear Rations
New LUK Clutch
New clio cup 2005 Engine
Pipercross airfilter
Powerflex Engine Mounts - In Progress
Hmmmm what to do.. Any ideas? Any one know of any...
Can somebody please confirm whether the dog bone mount bushes are different sizes for the 172 phase 1 and phase 2
I have brought powerlfex ones - part no. PFF60-211K and they look too big.
Lately when going over 3k my car is making a knocking noise which is most probably the exhaust hitting the sub-frame
i have had a garage say that i need a new dog bone mount.
Can anyone direct me in the right place to buy one?

Question:
If i was to re-remap my already remapped car would it make any difference. I had it remapped about 6 months ago and was wondering if remapping it again would do anything..?
sounds stupid but i have an rs tuner so would only take 20 or so minutes.
Hmmm
- Excuse the repetition...
My subwoofer keeps going hay wire making continous booming noises instead of going to the beat of the song. Sometimes it stops if i go over a bump etc
Any ideas its actually really annoying!
As Above
I am thinking about getting my gearbox refurbished.. Does any one know any one around the Hertfordshire/London/Beds/Bucks Area
Estimated cost??
As above
Just wondering what the fast road or performance clutches are all about
do they improve the performance of your car.. will the clutch pedal be harder??
Anyone know where i can get a 172 gearbox to fit a phase 1 172... ?looks like mine is buggered.
Also does anyone know the labour costs involved in such an operation?
Thanks,
Jake
I took my car to a mechanic last night and he seems to think that my gearbox has gone :(
Syptoms
- Whining noise coming from passennger side when accelerating
- grinding noise when i lift off the accelerator
- Seems to select gears fine and makes the same noise in all gears
Do you think he...
I have noticed that my engine/car is making a whining buzzy noise and it seems to judder slightly when i put my foot on the throttle as if the engine has some movement...? I have given it a hard time lately and am hoping its nothing serious.
Any ideas?
I have had the sticky throttle problem and was told to clean out the butterfly in the throttle body, it has made the car faster and more responsive but the revs are now sticking at like 2k rpm.. when i stop
any body know why/ how to resolve the problem?
Ever since i have had a new engine fitted in my ph1 172...
When i release the throttle the revs stick at 2krpm sometimes higher... then when i tap the throttle from the underneath the revs go back to normal..
This only seems to happen after running the car for over 20 minutes and my car...
Friday night - went to pick up a mate - was on my way to the station to get a train into london
Gave it a bit of beans on an a road and it went dead, no petrol was getting into the engine..
Greenflag arrived after an hour and immediately pressed a red button under the bonnet and started...
I want to get my Ph1 15'' alloys refurbed and get them sprayed in black.
Will this de-value the car? Any one know any where local to herts, beds, bucks that can do this?
