Hi folks Been having some problems the last few weeks with the car occasionally feeling like it's holding back.. some nights it also loses power for a short while until you downchange, this seems to be only when the car is cold though. Lately the revs have began to bounce between 0 and 1000...

Falkland have quoted as follows We would only use main dealer parts for these engines - prices as follows : Cam Belt Kit - £146.08 + vat Plug Caps - £10.93 + vat (pair). Aux Belt Kit - £119.99 + vat (optional but advised). Labour - £240 + vat adding the VAT at 20%...

As above looking to get the belts changed on my 172.. does anyone know of anywhere localish that has the tools to do the job at a decent rate.. Am not a fan of That Arnold Clark on the Kingsway at all... Someone suggested Autoecosse? Any tips would be great also what do people find its costing...

The steering wheel IMO would be a disgrace if it never made the wheels turn..it does the trick though lad :)

Just a shade over a grand... 12 months MOT and 6 mths Tax :)

The steering wheel is alright for me... better that that muckle great standard things... as long as it turns the wheels i suppose :) Mods.. errm... 60mm springs, SS cat back, and those BK299's and of course that steering wheel :) cheery for the welcome lad

Aye, I did indeed.. I hope your not away to tell me it's a s**tter lmao ;)

If i'm off work i'll nip down and say hello :) any other dundee/angus boys leaving about the same time give me a holler :)

Aye last time i had this much fun it was in an Opel manta Thats just showing my age :)

Well i've pulled the finger out and paid my membership dues :) Also have taken a few pics of my own... not much difference from the PH ones from when i bought it :S lol will keep you all up to date when i get cracking at making her better :) James

The Ones that are on have new rubber, so will perhaps when its time to change tyres i'll see about getting the proper wheels put back on it! I'm too old for the modifying scene these days lol, so it will be a case of less is more with this one :P to be honest it's just a stop gap car to do me...

Alright Bud No plans really apart from getting it well serviced and tidied up, already has a nice full SS exhaust and is pretty decent bodywise, so just planning on spending some spanner time sprucing up the mechanicals really, i'm up near Dundee.

Hi Guys Just bought myself a little 172 sport to run around in, forum comes highly recommended as a decent place for meets and help/advice etc Will have a good read through the place then get myself joined up for hopefully a bit of banter, I feel like ilm too old for this car now at 30, but...
