thought 172s were 195 and 182 were 205 (but I guess it works both ways? :S)

To be fair hes probably right though ^

Will they charge you to diagnose? (possibly a stupid question but just want clarification)

Shouldn't be a too expensive job then matey, but you'd be best getting it diagnosed first but to me with limited details you have provided it does sound like the clutch plates nakered. Make sure if it is that that they when changed they use the kit rather than just the plate, you dont want...

I presume the extreme is the 1.2 mk3 correctomondo?

That makes no sense whatsoever lol, or is it just me? Probably clutch plate is nakered.

Thats what I thought too, but I never really used the computer

Dont even use the computer, go and check your dipstick

how much more? few mm on the dipstick? or we talking uber amounts

think hes pulling your plonker lol Get a leakdown test done most half decent garages will have the equipent to do it, at least then youl know where its coming from before you make any decisions as to what you wanna do

Must be something else matey, mine ran fine without it (admitedly it was pretty much stock but still lol)

As long as its OAT then yes, do a google. I cant remember what I used now but it was red in colour in a silver bottle lol Edit: It was Comma I used

The only benefit to aftermarket panels is that you dont have to buy replacement paper ones when the service comes up

Unless they were lekaing real bad they wouldn't notice anyway, ussualy its when they push down on the corner they rebound funny or make a strange noise

I bought a vareity pack of o-rings from a local harware store (about 200) for I think about £2 lol

Not sure if those had an inertia switch, but id try that pushing first little red button under the bonnet

+1 Just remember youl need to run the engine to open the stat before itl be fully filled so fill it to the max and start the engine and as required keep topping up.

Took me more than 15 minutes too, purely because I cross threaded the bolt Yes I am a tard

Oh man, I'd say your stupid! Pikey option or what Also Mark has made some good points in the above post

what exactly fell down there?

Lol! Have done that quite a few times myself

All I see is a red cross dude :(

95% sure its 8mm

Try a gear oil change first, cheap and cheerful use 75w-80 GL5 I believe box holds 3.1ltrs, have a search around mate youl find lots on the subject I like the picture BTW ;)

Awesome

Pretty much what fil-b says but if you undo the top bolt first before you jack it up, your probably get away without using a gun. Also if you search around a bit it might help.

Combination on luck and how its been maintained/treated. Had a couple of Clios with no major problems in 3 years (between the two of them)

If I want to strip wax from a car pre machine polish I've always used fairy but I'm sure that will open me upto all sorts of silly comments lol

It's only one bolt that needs filing down not to hard to do it yourself

nasty, although did you know this lads address that did a runner or not?
