cool so it should just pull out when the 2 bolts are released?

no one?

as per title, it just a case of removing the 2 bolts holding the cylinder to the servo or does the whole servo have to come out? if the servo has to come out any pointers on that would be appriciated cheers

blatantly 50/50 all the way. your mate says this, he says that. this is why for peanuts id always install a recording camera that would have caught the van driver moving into your lane without checking = case closed/win.

its £800 for a reason though. if you want a good one with history, belts done and shiney shiney paint etc you need to be looking at the £1600-2000 price bracket. offer £600 - its worth that all day in bits if you cant turn it around...

^there was also a rumour that cups had different mapping from a standard 172, but as you say..... lol

engines are the same dude

alternator set up is only different on the aircon delete model otherwise theyre the same. removing the aircon frees up A LOT of space in the bay

gearbox is different i believe due to lack of abs sensors so uses a speedo drive. engine is the same brakes are the same minus abs rings

no abs no aircon (some did have though) no leather (pov spec,no rear headrests) no centre seat belt no xenons no headlight washer jets no windscreen sensor no engine cover uprated suspension bigger cup rear spoiler cup front splitter thinner glass wider track turini alloys approx 89kg lighter...

most insurance companies / reg checkers struggle to differentiate between a renault clio sport and a renault sport clio. ive spent valuable years wasting time on the phone while they try to figure out what car it is because it comes up as 1.2 not a 2.0 :-)

hi jay motor interrupt lock - green wire (pin a4) in black 18 pin plug near fuse box unlock - white wire (pin a6) same plug regards

flyeye? bah! if youre going to do it do it proper.....get t'set of tights round em lad :laughing:

ive always driven the same cars - typically imprezas and beemers..... so when i have to explain to everyone that i now drive a clio 172 cup (because i work in car spares and always get asked) - everyone looks at me gone out and always ask - why?!? (with a smirk) unless theyve driven an rs clio...

mondeos are great day to day cars but lets be honest, theyre about as much fun as finding out that your mates have cancelled the fortnight long plan of going out to the pub last minute, which leaves you to return home to the mrs who has planned a night of watching emmerdale omnibus in your...

cup of course... i prefer form over cc :-)

yes it does dude. as gherkin says the lettering has to be the one and only available standard size as does the acrylic backing space around it. you can have a shorter plate if you have ie a 5 digit plate but the height is non negotiable. its bs i know, but its still illegal and not worth it...

wow dude you shouldve just started a new thread lol. i was still in my 20s when this thread was made, now midway to 40 :-( cups are basic as bread. i like them though and ive got a 172 cup. defo sharper on the road than my regular 172. will be stepping upto a 197 next year i think

right understood. stuck on the grey plug dude sorry

are you just repairing them because of dodgy plugs? i removed the plugs and resoldered the wires together, job done no need for resistors seatbelt light is easy, undo the star screws on the belt clip and youll see a metal clip thats touching together. the idea is that when the belt clips in it...

i work in the auto trade and we supply number plates and are dvla registered. the size of both the acrylic and the lettering are illegal dude. a copper with a tape measure would have you.... ive had this scenario before! would take a total jobsworth of a copper though

3/4 number plates look great, id have one but cant be bothered with the aggro id get from the po-lease

^keep them silver

shame to see a cup end up like that. mines no immaculate example but ill try my damned best to maintain it and bring it up to scratch

from what ive experienced with selling clios the 'cambelt scenario' is a very touchy subject (and with good cause) hes probably had a million calls all asking about the belt and just cant be ar5ed answering the same question over and over, however in that case they shouldve listed the belt info...

ahhh understood

have i missed something here lol? cups came with turinis?

off the shelf wheels??

hids direct are very good indeed. ive also fitted them. i stand corrected 5k is indeed more white than 6k :-p

makes sense dude. 197 is a lot of car to have sitting around all week doing nothing. the 197 is the daily driver imo. got a mate looking for one atm. at some point ill switch from 172 to a 197. ill defo miss the rawness of the 172 though when i do but a bit of comfort for a slight lack in...
