So long as the oil is of the standard quoted here its fine Renault recomended fluids/amounts/grades to be used. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=151501

Thats expensive but thats due to the high labour rate used. 5.1 hours for the cambelt an the kits £140 or so a dealership should replace the belt as it should never be reused and has to come off to do the cambelt. My opion is that expensive I'd personaly do the service myself but depends...

No for 2.0 brakes you need 2.0 shafts as well (form memory the shafts are different thickness when they go in the hubs. Also you need the different suspension or to bodge your suspension to fit.

cannot see the video but IMo not imposible as a speedo reading Ive seen 125 out of mine and that 60% or so of the power. Im sure from memory the vauxhall speedo arn't famous inacurate in the astras and corsas.

Ben this might sound stupid but why start with a 172 why not a 1.2 and buy the conversion kit after all nothing realy gonna stay in the car and it could have been cheaper.

Check under the bonet on full lcok that the strut tops arn't touching the bodywork they usualy do. The fix by Renault is to grind some of the body away the other fix aftermarket is to get sme washer to lift the top moutn away from the bodyshell more.

See your other thread.

To get 100hp at the wheels you'd need the bigger injectros form the 80 a serious custom remap and a suitable intercooler. also things like k and n etc wll help. WIll be a bit smokly though.

Depends how is been driven and serviced. Personaly that a bit low for my liking I'd prefere higher miles. Shows the cars only done short journeys most likly which does more harm might as ell save a few quid get a higher milage one which most likly has the same wear

They have to be flat to the bonnet though else they injour pedestrians.

Nope. Each to there own though.

Im just glad there clmaing down. These silly numberplates and fake dots and stuff realy annoy me.

Get the tracking done proerly don't let them fob you off and not set it straight they have to adjust both stearing arms ie set the wheel straight then set the road wheels to keep the stearing wheel straigh most don't bother and only set the wheels straight as its easier.

The design is the same. Refusing the test is fine IMo the car is deemed as dangerous without having it checked why should an examiner test a pupil in a car with a known point which needs checking.

Re: Would you buy a 100,000 mile 182 Fuel filters are good for 150k undder renautl rules few have ever chnaged them as well.

Renault only part. £50 for the new sensor and loom. Its easy to fit though.

There the one under battery yep and one on the gearbox to subframe. Most likly your battery ones needs chaning the top mount check though engine might need moving forward.

Fk's are good a bit lower quality and harder but for the price they are very good. There the minimum I'd ever look at suspenion wise.

TDC sensor does sound likly.

No reason it should. The 172 are different the rear box is to heavy for the design so they will fail in time.

They won't fir the 2.0 hubs and stock 2.0 brakes are better anyway than the uprated stuff you have. The gearbox mounts are in the same place regardless so you can use your old 1.2 shafts and hubs or 172 hubs and shafts with either the 172 gearbox or your cars gearbox and either the 1.2 or 172...

To good to be true its a waste of time its no good for the engine nd won't get any more HP.

Getting them stuck on mats it common check there nothing like hair etc round the pedal though.

It wll be the coil pack check you plugs you might be worth chnageing them if the coil pack has gone as they'll be dirty. I woulnd't worry about the oil to it it takes 7 hours the cambelt is chnaged etc its a big job quite common though. Coil packs easy to chnage.

Coolent temp sensors failed common thing realy check the wiring as well it can get pulled and damged leading to this.

But there on cars designed for them. peple on here often look at cheap thing ones with no suspensin designed for them.

Re: Would you buy a 100,000 mile 182 Totally agree i know of a relitivly new Jag which is nearing 400k now nothing has been changed on it there a few old williams on the same sort of milage on stock engines. I have to say mines been hammered ever day for 105k and its as good as new.

Thats not going to means the tensioners got chnaged though which is a risk IMO i woulnd't take..
