i duno mate, i couldnt let it go for less than £1000, iv still got a year left on a loan for it which is more than that, but im gona just take it on the chin...
right, cheers for the replies, the car ran out of mot around the time it went wrong and needed a car for work straight away so i borowed the money for the a4, which was cheap. rather than fix it.
i tried for two rear beams on here and got let down both times, and the cars just getting forgot...
alright guys, i bought a phase1 172 towards the end of last year and loved it, but when we had all the heavy snow i hit a kirb and bent the rear beam/stub axle, the car drives alright but is slightly twitchy when hitting bumps
Also one day when i started the car it wouldnt hold its own idle...
right i never hit the limmiter unless it cuts in early. i always wait for the car to warm up properly and im no perminantly redlineing the car! im not some little boy racer, just something iv noticed over the few months iv had the car.
thanks danny ill look at the stat, and cheers cliosportap...
hey guys, the redline on my phase1 172 keeps changing. sometimes it will bounce at the first red dot on the dash roughly 6800rpm. but other times it will rev up till the double dotted line roughly 7200rpm.
does anyone know if this has happend before or how it can be sorted?
cheers
