    CLIO IV RS - Trophy from page 111

    Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news I wont really be in the position to buy one, so the new one really does not kick up a fuss for me. But from what I've heard so far is it's more practical, more economical and lower emissions. Not really the approach I would have taken with a market leading...

    Pre-purchase Ph1 172 advise?

    Something fairly important is Documented major service (Belts and tensioners etc) see if the dealer has any receipt for the cam/aux belt change as it isn't cheap over here, let alone where you are !

    Not "Gelled" with 172Cup

    The gearshift isn't one of the RS's strongest assets, however if you get the stiff shift gear from yanoo on here it improves the feel to no end.

    2000rpm idle

    +1 on leak, had the intake manifold off recently ? probably a gasket that needs changing.

    Ph1 tired

    If the timings slightly off it can lose you significant power, although it costs a chunk - I'd be going there first (Probably needs doing anyway)

    172 no power

    What's it limited to on the Rev's ? as above ideally you need a code reader, or you could spend a wedge guessing.

    PH1 Titanium Detail

    Loving the subtle touches you have made mate, I really need to invest in some silver bullets and side strips - set's the alloys off nicely.

    Engine Temperature / Econnomy

    When I had me 1.2 8v it managed about 400/500 miles to a tank on the way to college, when I started doing frequent motorway driving (50+) it all went wrong. Th 1.4 16V is actually worse on fuel then my 172 (Probably because of the gearbox ratios) Unless im sitting static in traffic for some...

    Typical 172 behaviour with added "spice"

    I think it depends how you drive, clio's being cheap like the saxo's and corsa's mean the chavs are interested but the insurance costs of the 172 typically keeps them at bay. People only see the clio badge and draw conclusions sadly.

    Car burnt out drivers door loom, now won't start!

    Could be well off but have you tried the fuel cut off under the bonnet, red stopper above the battery - should click down if it's popped.

    [PC] Diablo 3

    Has anybody made it into Inferno yet ? I have a few mates who are doing it and they said it was nails (Barbarian's) but I don't seem to be having much trouble going through as a wizard - Only on act 1 however so hoping it will get harder.

    Lucky Indeed, got Booted off yesterday with "Error 1 Unable to create your own Party" followed by 3 hours off "Error 37" then the scheduled maintenance after. Good game, the downtime's getting a bit much though (Specially if you can only pop on now and then)
