Hi all! Thought it was probably about time I started a little project thread on here. Not been very active yet on here but have been a member for some time. Last July I bought myself another 172 (had one before but only for about 4 weeks as it was a bit of a shed). Picked up a decent Pearl...

Wondered if anyone could shed some light on this... I did a trackday at Castle Combe on Tuesday this week, parked the car up as usual outside my house and the next morning there was a large puddle which obviously suggested a leak. Now, the car has always had a very light gearbox leak, but...

I've done a quick search but couldn't really find anything. What spacers are best for the Clio? I'm on AP coilovers and OZ F1's. Just wondered what the best options are to fill the arches a bit more and widen the track?

Hi all, I posted before about my manual adjustment for the headlights isn't working on one side. I have been told that the adjuster plug/talk or whatever has come away from the light unit. This is evident in that the whole light unit INSIDE the lens is wobbling from side to side. My question is...

Hi all, having some problems with the manual headlight adjuster on the drivers side of my 172. Tonight i I adjusted the lights manually up a tad so I could actually see where I was going at night! I ended up going a bit too far with them so lowered them down again, but the drivers side didn't...

As title, spot it most days coming home from work parked up next to the pub by the land rover/range rover dealership? Who are you??

Anyone know what I'm on about? Seen him a few times up at castle Combe circuit in a red 5 door ph2 fully stripped track car with a F4R conversion I think. Wondered if there was a build thread at all for him?

Hi guys, new to the forum and relatively new to Clios. Heard a lot about the RS tuner map. But just wondered what exactly is it? How does it work? How/where do you buy it? Is it a plug and play type thing? HELP!

Hi guys, been a member on here for about a year since I got my first 172 last June. Had it about a month and sold it as was a bit of a heap, but now I'm back with this: Picked it up on Sunday with the intention of doing some track days in it over the next year or so. Let me know what you...

Hi guys, is there any sort if quick shift kit or gear linkage kit out there that will reduce the throw and floppiness of the standard setup?

Decided to update the look of my car by adding some LED sidelights, the right hand one now doesn't work (along with the right rear tail light). Checked the fuse and was blown so replaced that. Rear lights both worked fine now front right sidelight won't work whatever bulb I put in. And also the...

Just fitted my new aftermarket steering wheel. Obviously airbag and service lights are on as no airbag, but also my traction control light has come on and won't go away :S. Any ideas??

I wanna see your phase 2's (non cups) with eibach sportlines and 15" wheels, need to decide what I'm gonna do with mine :)

Hi guys, had my Monaco 172 ph2 a couple of weeks now and already want coilovers as I've come from a track prepped Fiesta with racing coilovers to what feels like a boat. I don't want to go full track spec this time but definitely need to improve the barge-like handling of the Clio. Just asking...

Picked her up a couple of weeks back but not been driving it yet as I'm waiting until my birthday to insure it (makes it like £200 cheaper). Which is actually tomorrow so not too long to wait now! Just a few close ups for now will get some full pictures at some point. Oh and excuse the crappy...

Had a little search around on here but no luck finding what I need so apologies if this has already been covered! I just want to know how you go about removing the trim panels I.E. the silver trim bits between the airbag and glovebox etc. I'm guessing they just un-clip? But don't wanna try it...

Just a quick question really, what is the difference between the two and what's the best to go for? Pros/cons of each etc please :) ​Many thanks!

Picked up my 172 this afternoon and already well pleased with it! Rapid little thing! One question, it has a Clifford Alarm system on it. If I walk away and don't lock the car it will lock automatically. Is this a Clifford thing or do all 172's do it? Bit irritating if I say leave my keys in...

Just put down a deposit on this rather fine looking specimen: Picking her up tomorrow then it's on with the mods! Will be my first Clio coming from owning only Fiesta's in the past so no idea what to expect! C+C guys :)

Hi guys! New to the forum obviously, but recently just wrote off my Fiesta Zetec S and now hunting for a new car. I know I want something small, fast and French so that led me to a Clio 172. Preferably after a ph1 but will settle for a ph2 :). Just thought I'd say hello and hope to start...
