I've just brought an R27 off a forum member and it's a lovely car. A lot of fun to drive. And less rattles than my old 172.

Just done a 200 mile round trip today to view matts r27 today. Decided to buy it Sony gotta do another 200 mile round trip again next week. But if it's worth it then I'm prepared to travel.

That silver one will be me I train Friday after work.

I know there was another silver Clio 172 going there a while ago but not seen it for a bit. You would know mine by all the filth on it and the tsw wheels.

Yep that's me buddy

Hi all. Maybe someone can help. If you open up the fuel pump under the rear seat in a 172 there is a little non return valve. It's like a rubber cap thing. I am missing mine. And it's causing me problems on low fuel when I go round a roundabout. Has anyone got a broken pump they could fish...

Possibly me as I live in church Langley and I've been off work this week with the wife. Mine is lowerd and has tsw wheels and a decat so it would be obvious.

Yeah seems to disappear as I rev. I know they sound a little sewing machine like anyway. I also thought dephaser. Can someone please explain to me what the dephaser actually does ?

Hey as per title really. Sounds really tappetey on idle it performs fine or seems to as its always sounded like this. But not ever hearing another ph2 172 I can't tell. It did spend a week in Renault last year and they didn't say anything ?

I'm in Harlow. But used to live in theydon. Was there earlier visiting my parents.

just spent 2 hours last night replacing my bulb, water had got up into the ignighter and caused it to fail, once it dried out it was ok, but as with the joys of owning a renault, the headlight adjuster managed to snap while i was replacing the bulb..

Ok this is an odd problem, i had a map sensor fail on me and this similar symptoms, but its not the map sensor. When i go full lock right round a roundabout the car can only be described to as suffereing from fuel starvation, as its starts to judder and jolt, similar to when my map sensor was...

I'm in Harlow too, could poss make a meet

Look out for me. Most dirtiest iceberg 172 in Harlow with tsw wheels.

476 including fault finding for a broken map sensor 2 rear shocks 100 And a cam belt change 400 Thats me done for the month.

Is there any visual signs to see if the belt has been changed? There's nothing in my service book to say it has but all services are stamped.

Is there any where other than the main dealer i can get genuine parts? My main dealer seems to be pricer than others. Where does everyone get service parts and shocks etc from ? Cheers

right just called them and siad about the ecu, he read me off the report. The injection comp (ECU) is not talking to the UCH, and the comp is storing no faults. There was a coroded wire that goes from the ecu to the uch which we repaired but renault have bypassed it and the fault still remains.

Cheers. This has been going on over a month. I dought it will be fixed anytime soon.

Thanks. Is it worth getting my ecu tested as to rule it out? I've changed so much their using much left. Or is it just not possible what their saying exists?

So what your all saying is there us no way the ecu can be faulty and not talk to the injection comp ? It either works or not ?

Yes but runs like a dog

I'm in Harlow Essex mate. Be good if you could

My mate has a 172 ph2 he is breaking. What exactly do I need from his car if i was to swap ecu's?

Dan? Point me in the right direction mate.

mate I'm honestly this close to selling it for spares or repair. Its a shame as I really love it and its in not bad nick. But I dunno if I can handle the stress of owning another Renault.

Why is that?

what about a recon unlocked ecu such as http://www.ecutesting.com/renault_megane_1_6_16v_ecu_sie.html do these work ?

after changing everything the problem was still there, thats why i had to resort to going to renault. They have had it on their CLIP machine and said the ecu isint talking to the injection computer, they have tested the wireing and its ok, so they believe it is an ecu fault. Is their alot...

essex mate, i thought renault were specialists, i cant keep throwing money at this, im starting to get very stressed over the whole flippin thing
