Managed to get a scenic shifter for 20 pounds, bend the rod and add the yanoo 3.0 kit. I cut around 1" and 1/2 from the rod and plastic reverse tube. Now it have to be a little taller than stock but also shorter distance to gear changes.
Next month I will put this on the car and also a "new"...
Salut Radu,
Mult succes cu proiectul tau! Imi spui si mie unde pot reconditiona o cutie de viteze? Daca ai nevoie de o piesa doua intreaba-ma, mai aduc una alta.
Radu
The wheel bearing seems to be fine, the knock appears to be on gearbox side.
If it is the CV joint, is there a repair kit or I need a new driveshaft?
Thanks
Hi,
Today I hear some king of a metal knocking on my 172 Clio when releasing the acceleration. When I keep a constant speed or accelerate there is no knocking, but when release the throttle it starts to knock proportional to the speed. The noise change a little when the clutch is pressed, but...
I really like the old style tails, there are not many ph2 clios that have fitted this.
I hope this month could install the new manifold with a stainless steel custom 2.5" pipe line.
Just found a new gearbox for my Clio, so no more problems with it.
Found a 4-2-1 manifold on a ebay auction and get it for around 70 pounds.
I will try to have in summer a new B14 setup. Should I get solid mounts or just new stock ones? Also if you could please tell me the Renault part...
So, the best way is to find a good working order gearbox? Or what would be all the parts needed? Could I find just the 1st and 2nd synchro and new gears?
Sorry for so many question, I just want to make my car run again:)

Hi all,
So for a full rebuild of a 130 gearbox do I need the 32 01 043 88R. I found with this part number only on pure motorsport website. Does it come with another part number from Renault?
Thanks
@NorthloopCup
I replace the oil in the gearbox, but the problem is still here.
How much time could I drive it like this?
I think I will try to find here a used one, but in good order, it is possible?...
Hi,
I found something strange on my 172 Clio. I bought a used dogbone and make myself a poly bushes conversion. When I was under the car ready to install it, I've seen that some parts are missing (the one in blue circle). Could someone please tell me more about that and also what part no does it...
My "new" original manifold arrived so I started to buy parts for the exhaust system. I have the ebay manifold for now, but asap I receive the stainless steel pipe I will make my own. I design a flange for the mid section exhaust, it is a Borla exhaust same brand as the other one, with a 2.5"...
I will paint also the dash board to match the black color.
Finally I got a 182 original manifold for 75pounds and sell the eBay one. I was a newbie to get it :))
Thanks
Radu
I will replace next week the oil and see if something is better.
If is the 2nd synchro damaged, how much could I drive until it will fail completely?
Also, could you please provide me the Renault part no for the kit?
Radu
Hi,
I've got a problem with my 172 Clio. When I shift from 1st to 2nd gear (at high rpm, above 6500) there is a little metal noise like a not full pressed clutch. I believe that is the synchro, but also the oil was never changed (100k mile). May have a try with a new 75w80 oil?
If the rebuild...
I managed to get a set of original OZ caps and now my spring wheel are done.
Hope to fit asap:
-Bilstein B14 with Powerflex rear bushes
-Short shifter with Yanoo kit
-new engine mounts
Hi,
I want to buy a set of Bilstein b14 for my 172 Clio and from what I've seen in pics, it does not come with the rear shock mounts like standard shocks. My shocks are oem since 2003 so the bushes may not be in a great shape. Only from Powerflex I could get a set? No stock available?
It is my...
Hi,
I've just refurbished my summer alloys, they were cheap, but they need a lot of work.
First, one wheel had some bad scuffs, because I did not like just fill it up with body repair filler ( bicomponent ), so I make my own material by using epoxy ( the one that I use on carbon fiber work )...
I just build another gearbox stick with Yanoo kit in it and it is ready to install.
I also order a b14 suspension for next spring, a custom mid exhaust and also a custom twin tips exhaust for 182 rear conversion. Hope in spring I could install all the parts I have for my Clio, it is too cold now.
Thank you a lot for the reply. The engine seems to be timed properly, the idle is also very smooth and it revs a lot nicer than before.
You are right, after lots of new bith, my car runs as it should. This is my Christmas gift :">
Hi,
Does now sounds better? I've just replace cam belt, dephaser, aux belt and some other small bits.
Now the car starts way better, so it was also a timing issue before.
Thanks,
Radu
Hi,
I've got this error, from the first post, and after turn of and on the engine it does not show again and car runs right. The error shows on when I was in full throttle in 2nd gear. I will have a little disalingment on timing and could solve this just mid December.
Hi,
I have a spare TB for my 172 clio and because I want to build myself a rs2 style inlet, I would like to increase the diameter at 64mm, instead of 60mm. I know that there will be almost 0 increase or even 0, but I own a cnc and a lathe and it will be like a challenge for me.
Does anyone...
