    Lowestoft

    http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?662615-X862-NGN-ph1-172-Kessingland-Suffolk That's the car I was thinking, not yours obviously. The wife loves Africa Alive - always pestering me to go when we're visiting the folks.

    Lowestoft

    My in-laws live around the corner from Africa Alive - have I seen this car parked near the Queens Head, Kessingland?

    Phase 1 service light?

    Just out of interest, does anybody know what that is that's plugged in?

    Misfiring + Engine Light

    Jesus - did you get the new leads fitted and/or did the misfire reoccur? Were you thinking the reduction in MPG was connected? I ask because I have somewhat similar symptoms, and I hate it when people don't close their threads! :)

    Loss of power 172cup

    Blocked cat could cause a loss of power. What exactly happened to your exhaust?

    Why choose full frame?

    For me, I've been waiting for a full frame Nikon at a sensible price for years. It's getting better, but still £1400 is too much - my car isn't worth that. That's the reason that I stick with APS-C, but I really don't want to. I've been a film shooter for years before digital, so amassed a nice...

    Titanium PH1 Goodness

    That looks well. Echo the spacer comment. Nice.

    dephaser

    Take it back to the garage and ask them? Read this thread and you have all the answers of what to do if it is the dephaser that needs changing. Good luck.

    So I call Renault direct...

    This is what happened to me (and what I reported above). This is why I replaced all 4. They were all original and so nearly 12 years old afaik, and I guess from the results after, one of the reasons old(er) cars lose performance.

    Miton Hall Supercar Sunday

    Attended this Sunday morning. It's a fairly low key event but then it's only a mile from my house and free. 1st Sunday of the month in 'summer'.

    MX60 OSF RB Clio200 & LY Megane R26 - A59 Clitheroe

    Spotted these two coming from Gisburn on the A59 on Sat 6th April about noon. Caught up and thought you might like a little play but I guess not. Didn't see any CS stickers and not entirely sure you were both driving together TBH. Megane looked well but not a fan of the 200 especially - from...

    Clio 172 rough running then cut out and won't start

    I know this is probably not a massive help, but search on here for similar problems and I'm sure you'll find something else to consider investigating. It's also very worthwhile joining up as a member and posted a 'hello' in the new members section. Good luck :)

    Err, wow? Anyway, welcome to the club ;)

    My new car.. (R26 content)

    This is pretty much the spec of car I'm looking for. Badges and wheels don't do it for me though, but otherwise a cracking motor.

    So I call Renault direct...

    I had an intermittent misfire that was down to a failing injector - this was replaced with a second had one. A few months later another (different) injector started doing the same thing. I replaced all 4 and the car felt a lot better to drive and definitely had more power, it honestly did, so I...

    Oulton Park British GT - Easter Monday

    I'll be there as long as it's not snowing / lashing it down. Prefer this to touring cars.

    Oulton Park (Pre season testing Cliocup/British GT)

    Brilliant pics - the fez and MG look awesome together.

    Tyre Choice??

    Yeah I know Gally, and by your own admission you drive like Miss Daisy. TBH, if I was the OP, I'd rather have the opinion of somebody who pushes their car a bit.

    Tyre Choice??

    I got 13k miles out of the last set of Spec 2's, which for the price I think is pretty good. What are the V12's like in comparison to the Spec 2's and PE2's, in your opinion?
  22. Xanda73

    Tyre Choice??

    PE2's not as good in the dry as Yoko Prada Spec 2's or Toyo T1R's IMO. Different story in the wet however, the PE2's are a lot better.

    Pics of my iceberg ph1

    Prefer non-colour coded tbh. Looks good though, still.

    Few photos of the Mrs' new car

    That not her in the 2nd picture? Car looks great, but think I preferred the wheels in the original colour.

    Scott's Super Clean PH1 172 Project Thread

    Re: My PH1 172 That looks superb - don't sell! Wish I could keep my ph1 in half as good condition as that, but being a daily, and black, it's impossible. Also, I get the age and wanting something more grown up too. I'm staring down 40 and keep looking at R26's, but know I would miss the 172...

    Fuel pump not engaging when turning on ignition.

    I think it's pretty obvious that your fuel pump needs replacing. Get a second hand one off a breakers, should only be a few quid.

    Assassin's Creed 3

    Got this, never played any of the others. TBH it's both great and rubbish. Opening mission (trainer mission) is breathtaking. The menus are awful. Controls are confusing. Not as good as RDR. Loading times are quick (a personal bugbear). Not sure I would recommend it - don't have much conviction...
