i just bought one of these too. they are well made.

Hi, just wondering what everyone's preference's are when it comes to a 172 cup or a 182 ff? What's the better car from them both and why?

Did changing the regulator fix it for you?

Yes trouble starting. We have broken down a few times and have had to use easy start to get it going again. The engine management light is on all the time and we have a df137 fault code (excessive fuel rail pressure) when plugged into an obd reader. Which would make sense if one of the injectors...

Cheers for the advice. I'm going to run the test on the fuel return lines and see how many injectors are not satisfactory. It might only be one that's bad. Buy first going to drop some fuel from the filter drain and check for metal particles.

Looking to take them apart and clean the needles and tips up. I know what to expect with regards to the insides as I've seen some vids on the delphi injectors. I'm more curious to know if others have gave it a go and if there's a lot more involved plus why it's a specialist job.

It's quite loud but I want to get it sounding near to standard as possible but want a stainless exhaust to last as well

panel craft in Braintree get my vote as well, the replaced a full floor in my old mini project and it looked like it rolled out the factory. they did an amazing job.

we have a dci 65 which the injectors are playing up. I was thinking about taking them apart and seeing if I can clean them up. is it really something that needs specialist care? has anyone else had a go?

hey there, we have a dci 65 and it repeatedly breaks down. we know the injectors need changing which im going to do soon but I am thinking about buying a half decent diagnostic tool. I know the new injectors need coding so will be looking to do this with the new reader. we are getting a fault...

Hi everyone, I'm looking to get a quieter Exhaust for my 182. I currently have a Milltek cat back resonated and looking at the scorpion RS192 as an option. I am wondering if any of you guys have had experience with both and if the scorpion be a quieter option for me?

jeez, that's some collection there. My friend has a Mazda MP4 and its bloody fast. Although he says his petrol tank empties bloody fast as well!

Nice looking car mate. Those headlights look so much better now. I love the look of the silver with the Turini wheels. It just needs a bit of tidying up and will look amazing.

welcome back. ive recently purchased a 182 as well. im looking into doing a few bits mainly to improve the looks. whats your plans?

hi and welcome, don't look that bad IMO. good luck with the project. do you plan on keeping it original?

Not sure how to?

Not that far away either but I need to get some cash together first.

Long time in coming (7 months) but I've got another one. It's a 182 with 105k. Its never had a hard life. Only had 2 owners from new. I was looking for a 172 cup and did have one to buy but got messed about so walked away from the sale. I'm really impressed with it. Although I'm already...

Where is the best place to buy reconditioned injectors? It's for a 2002 dci 65.

Oh, sorry it's the usual blue. Is it mondial blue?

Getting a rb cup 172. Just waiting on a call to say it's ready as it's having a few bits and mot done before collection. Can't wait.

Nice car. I'm hoping to collect my new purchase this weekend.

I saw this for sale a few months back and was tempted. Nice car

Nice to see you got one now. I was going to see if you fancied a px for ours plus cash for your cup.

We have a dci 65 and it has broke down 3 times in 2 years. It would cut out with a high rail pressure fault. Easy start gets it going again and is fine. It hasn't done it since September so hopefully it will be ok. It's really good on fuel, I was doing around £40-50 a week in my old 172 and £20...

No, I regassed it making sure I turned the bottle side to side and I felt it going into the pipework. Now it's great.

All sorted now thanks

Hi, I recharged my air con today but it won't blow cold. I followed the instructions and the compressor kicks in as when I press the air con button the pressure test gauge with the kick drops a tad then fluctuates up and down a bit but nothing happens to the temp. The pipes don't get cold or...

Thanks for the advice everyone

Hi, I noticed on my 172 ph2 I have brake fluid coming from my rear caliper where the handbrake cable lever enters the caliper. Is this a new caliper job or is there a service kit I can get? This is probably why my handbrake and stop light are on?
