    Windscreen wiper problem

    I'm having a mare with mine too, noisy as and my auto function would wipe 3-4 times quickly then stop for a while then go again. I'm going to take the wipers off at the weekend and also try and clean the auto wiper sensor.

    The Fatty's KTEC alternative induction setup that works just as well!

    I'll swap you for my alloy one if you want. I want to quiet mine down a bit.

    Why do most people rave about polybush dog bones?

    What do they get torqued too? I've one to fit at the weekend.

    Anyone give me an idea of parts cost from Renault - 197 just been hit up the back

    Do you guys not have the likes of Crash Services (https://www.crashservices.com/) on the mainland? They're fantastic. The moment someone bumps you, give them a call and they sort everything out from start to finish at no cost to yourself.

    2002 172ph2 - Something missing here...?

    Mine's an early 2002 172 and it has the full undertray. I'm guessing someone has left yours off, I only ask as that could be a mounting point that you pointed out. I'll jack mine up when I get back from work and take a pic for you.

    The Fatty's KTEC alternative induction setup that works just as well!

    Excellent, cheers man. PS: Anyone looking a better induction hose than the Ktec, this one is only £49 and has the breather pipe. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MTC-MOTORSPORT-RENAULT-CLIO-172-182-CUP-SILICONE-INTAKE-HOSE-BLACK/263468538693?hash=item3d57f2db45:g:O58AAOSwUkdZnKf8

    The Fatty's KTEC alternative induction setup that works just as well!

    My Fatty with the metal ASH pipe and large Ramair filter sounds ridiculous. I'm tempted to replace it with a standard airbox. What's this bit called? I tried searching on eBay with no luck.

    Do 172's not have an engine undertray?

    What monitor?

    This may help if you're in no rush; Camelcamelcamel is a price tracker for Amazon. If you want to see if something is cheap or not. You can set up price alerts to alert you when something you want is within your budget. https://uk.camelcamelcamel.com/search?sq=BenQ+Zowie

    What monitor?

    BenQ are the best for gaming in my opinion. If you're wanting to spend the top end of your budget i'd be picking between these ones - 27", 240hz, Freesync and zeroframe. - £275 Acer XF270HA 24.5" version of the above monitor - £239 (I prefer 24-25 inch for gaming) Acer XF250QA 24" BenQ ZOWIE...

    Gaming monitor vs Decent tv

    Ahh, not much you can do with it really. The onscreen options aren't great for colour management.

    Gaming monitor vs Decent tv

    Cars, bikes and computers are my main hobbies, I tend to nerd out on them all a little too much, lol. @imprezaworks You can download a program called Calibrize that I use to calibrate my main monitor (it's an IPS panel). The problem with TN panels is that the colours appear washed out, it's...

    Gaming monitor vs Decent tv

    It's a great monitor, if you can find one at the price he mentioned. They're back to ~£400 now. Any of the ASUS ROG Swift/Strix stuff is really good.

    What monitor?

    Doesn't look like the link posted. Try this. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00IG0Z0HY/?tag=cliospnet01-21 Edit: Had mine from 2016 and no issues.
  16. Simon998

    What monitor?

    If that's the case, grab a lower end Acer or ASUS 24" 144hz monitor. I hate the word futureproofing but if you buy him one now, theres less chance you'll be replacing it when/if he upgrades his PC. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00IG0Z0HY/?tag=cliospnet01-21 Buy that, I have it in my spare room...

    What monitor?

    What games does he play and what are his base specs on his system? I'm only asking as if he has a basic system, he wouldn't really benefit from a 144hz+ screen. I run a Korean brand monitor for viewing videos and browsing, it's a 'Crossover' branded screen. They buy Grade A screens that are...

    Door handle securing nut.

    Ah crap. Hopefully I haven’t bought the wrong thing then. I asked on the cliosport fb page and someone recommended this: https://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/Clips-For-Renault-Nut-Cage-Black-M5-Thread-Nuts-Fixing-PLS-D-KD-7703044129-/273146883526?txnId=2006518579017

    This bit, where the gaping hole is.

    Door handle securing nut.

    The handle of my 172 wouldn't screw in properly, so I tried a self tapper with a slightly coarser thread. When I went to screw it in, the plastic nut/thing the screw goes into snapped off and fell into the door. Any idea how I could fix this? The handles now completely hanging off. Cheers.

    Guide: How to remedy the sticky interior trim, quick and cheap.

    I'll be tackling those in a few days when I see how these hold up. I really want to do the radio and climate control but it would ruin them. The passenger side needs done again as there's a few bits I've missed. You only really notice it when they're dry.

    Guide: How to remedy the sticky interior trim, quick and cheap.

    I've only had my 172 a few days, but the interior trim was really getting on my nerves. I've seen a few but mine was by far the worst I've came across. After searching through the forums for an answer, everyone seemed to either be stripping them completely and respraying them or else replacing...

    Phase 2 Silver variations

    Oh, not so simple then. I thought the base models looked a lot duller than the Iceberg ones to be honest.

    Phase 2 Silver variations

    My mk2 ph2 Iceberg Silver 172 needs a new bonnet, it looks like someone left something on the slam panel and closed the bonnet on it, denting it outward. Question is: Did any of the entry level Clios (non-sports) share the same paint code? I've been googling it all morning and couldn't find an...
