    Saving fuel

    You can't "use energy", it's a transfer of energy. Going downhill you have a mixture of chemical energy from the engine combined with gravitational potential energy pulling the car down the hill transferring to kinetic energy (movement). This means the car needs to provide less energy to travel...

    EML on after refitting cat (182)

    As said, the fault needs cleared from the ECU before the light will go off.

    Saving fuel

    You can't really compare how many miles you get to £10. The price of fuel constantly fluctuates so £10 of fuel today is not the same amount as £10 of fuel tomorrow.

    You have single handedly bankrolled the DVLA with the number of plate transfer fees you have paid LOL ! Nice collection !

    Bought some Xenons - got a broken clip.

    Common knowledge on here that xenons shouldn't be couriered. These aren't fixable without taking apart the whole unit.

    Broken down, 1st day of ownership

    That just proves that you don't look after your car lol. Something like that, I'd be getting fixed right away !

    Fitting Fog Lights

    Fog lights literally make no difference at all in any weather conditions. They are just there for t***s. Serious.

    Hello all yet another 172 owner

    Welcome. You'll learn pretty quickly that the F4R engine is very hard to get power out of without throwing some serious money at it for the likes of T/SC or ITB's etc. ​With the mods you have planned, you'll be lucky to get 175bhp out of it !

    Upgrade Again

    I find that Speedtest is very subjective and can vary greatly on the time of day, how many people are online in your area etc. I pay for 60mb broadband and doing Speedtest at varying times of the day can give me readings of anywhere between 2mb and 140mb.

    1.2 16V Toxic Fume Light....

    Check on the back of the engine. There should be a black box and you'll probably find it is rubbing against some wires for the ECU. This is common to throw some dodgy error codes. ​You can remove the black box, tape up any bare wires and refit the box or just leave the box off completely.

    1.2 16V Toxic Fume Light....

    Best to get it plugged in to a diagnostic code reader to find out the exact cause of the light being on. Could be a number of things from a lambda sensor, to spark plugs/HT Leads/Coil pack or even the Crankshaft sensor.

    Crashed :(

    Sorry but you pulled out into someones path. No matter how fast they were going, you still pulled out on them. Doesn't matter how far out you managed to get, all that proves is you can't judge how long it takes to get your car clear of the junction and that you can't judge how fast someone else...

    Airbag Light for MOT

    Better to get the car plugged in to CLIP or a code reader that can handle Airbag codes on Renaults rather than replace ECU's as the new ECU will just find the same fault and throw the light on itself

    My Brothers Car....

    ​LOL ! You would sell the engine alone for £2750 you f**king r****d !

    My Brothers Car....

    What you going to offer then? 10 bob and a packet of wotsits? Then likely sell a wheel nut for £150 because it's MEGA RARE, lightweight and made of gold.

    Clio 1.1 Low MPG!

    More than likely your driving style that's causing it. I would be inclined to give it a good service too though, spark plugs, oil and filter change, air and fuel filter and maybe even a lambda sensor.

    OH YEAH!

    You said you'll think about a Trophy spoiler for £30? Are you nuts !! Get back down there !

    Leaking from interior light

    It will more than likely be the sunroof. The seals are common to go on them. ​There is a seal repair kit you can buy for them.

    DCI 100 to 182 front end help

    From what I've read, changing the bumper to fit non-sport wings is a bit of a ball ache and the bumpers are almost impossible to shift come selling up time. You are probably better getting a bumper, wings and skirts as a package.

    Engine Management light, please help?

    Best to get it on a code reader as it will tell you what has caused the light to come on. ​Not much point in doing things without knowing what caused the fault.

    Fog dash light coming on when brake pedals pressed

    You need to take off and clean the connections on both the rear light clusters. ​A bad earth is causing it.

    Crashed :(

    LOL at this. It doesn't matter how fast a car is travelling. If I see someone coming down a road at 100mph, I wouldn't pull out on him just because they are doing something they shouldn't be ! I pull out when there is a large and safe enough gap for me to get out without causing other road users...

    Was a very warm day, probably 18 or 19 at the bottom but it was very windy and cold at the top. Still managed to get sun burnt though!

    Ben Lomond

    So my father and I decided since it was a nice day to climb Ben Lomond and complete my first "Munro" (a mountain in Scotland higher than 3000 feet). Ben Lomond sits on the shores of Loch Lomond and at a height of 3,196 feet gives some good fantastic views of the loch and further afield to...

    Anyone who has the same colour of clio as this...

    Your service book will tell you providing you have one and they filled it in properly when the car was registered.
