Since just getting an iPod mini, was wondering if anyone with an ipod and a MK1 172 has tried this kit out? if so, comments?

Was just over in Auckland, New Zealand and came across a silver MK1 clio v6 #635 forsale. So if anyone is keeping track of where v6s are, heres one foe you

As not being in europe, I was wonder where it might be possible to obtain a french country of origin sticker to put on my clio? Seen some that are either just the oval sticker with the letter F or oval stick with french flag and the letter F Ta

Can you send me a copy of the ACTIS report Ben?

Weve been having the issue on the Mk2 172s also.. Can any send me a copy of this turret mod?

has there been any fix issued from Renault for the Mk1 172 with suspension knocking when turning? Located in OZ, but trying to get Renault here todo something or even admit it is a problem is something of a challenge, so wondering what is being done about it oversesa. Ideas where the knokcing...

martin: im located in canberra.. had a run in last year with tynans when the immobiliser packed it in while i was up in syd. short story, tynans new f**k all how to fix a mk1 and made storys etc up. was sitting in sydjey for 6 weeks and not repaired.. got renault aus to freight the car back to...

I always have the same feeling with my car after it goes in for a service.. feels so much quicker, then after a week, seems sluggish. Doubt thered be a new ECU upgrade out here in OZ every time the car gets serviced, so maybe some parameters in the ECU are reset back to factory defaults BTW...

Ive a set of Goodyear Egale F1, GSD3s on my Mk1 172, and quite frankly, they suck majorly. Definately download grade in handling from the previous Michelin Pilot Sport SXs. Very floaty/boaty feel to the car. My advise, dont get the Goodyears!

When my Michelin Pilot Sport SX 195/50/15s wore out on my MK1, replaced them with 195/50/15 Goodyear Eagle F1s GSd3. Have to say, there was a definate downgrade in hanlding/perfomance of the car.. Very "boaty", "floaty" feel to the car now. Will be getting rid of these tyres soon and do not feel...

So no one has any idea... funny that....

whats the guide for cleaning the filter in the BMC CDA??

Definately the 172 is a girls car. The image over heard in OZ, is that is basically the same size as the cars all other girls tend to drive (mirage, barina etc)

Nice one GR! Now, if theyd only release the v6 here in australia..... Though, somehow i think my G/F wouldnt allow me to spent $80,000aus on a car :-(

topped my clio out at 225km/h, dunno what that works out to in m/h

canberra... might see you on sunday if i make it for the drive day

my g/f drives my 172 when im there visiting or shes here... think there will be fights on who drives it the most when i move soon ;-)

Im in OZ too.. recently replaced my rear brake pads at the 40,000km service.. I suspect the rears wear will more than normally excepted due to some rear brake bias. I just considered it normall wear and tear.. tho hurt having to pay $180 to have em replaced. Im surpised Vicki there customer...

Guess dont really count, but i have RS 172 ..... Australian rego ;-) cost $405aus. bargin.

mines done just over 40k.. never had to top the oil up.

ok. correct my understanding if i am wrong, but isnt the 172 ecu suppose to learn about the way the engine is running etc. so if for example you do replace the intake system with a viper or bmc cda, it will automatically adjust the fueling to suit and not allow to run lean/rich due to the twin...

mmm chocolate hehehe.. well. if it was the toblerone HQ.. well.. then theyd be no question of where id go :) anyways. thanks for your input

Im about to get a set of goodyear eagle f1 GSD3s for my 172. hope theyre as good as ppl say! :)

Ok... theres a good chance Ill be moving from aus to UK for 6months for work. So, my question. whats a reasonable area to rent a place near london ( i gather prety expensive right in).. i guess 30mins travel time in hrmm. guess thats all i need to know atm

Seen these in the 2003 demontweaks motorsport catalogue.. Wondering if anyone has had them installed on their clios wheels?
