    Clio building up too much pressure

    Sounds like my old Rover. Try bleeding the system first to make sure you havent got a air lock.

    Variable Valve Timing.

    yeah You sure its not the solenoid rather than the D pulley?

    Heatshield exhaust wrap

    For every handfull of fires bet theres many thousands of others who have never had a problem. ;) I did mine a few years back, took it off last year as it was breaking up. Zero performance difference. Bagged it up and burnt it on a bonfire and it didnt act like a wick and it didnt burn very...

    172 or 182 manifold....Forged engine + ITB's

    The difference is there but very subtle. I thought it pulled better mid and top end in my experience Worth it if you can get it all done cheap. Very handy for cat messing too

    Cam Time!

    Good few years back this but Dastek was the first and a little known mapper just over the border. Wont go into details but id a been better sticking the cash straight down the bog then at least it would have saved on petrol money :dead: You wont go wrong with RS Tuning and probably the nearest...

    Cam Time!

    Exactly but the problem is folk make the mistake of looking for peak gains without realising what you gain at one end you rob at the other and if you want a good all rounder then your running pretty mild at peak

    Exhaust mount reinforcing fix - a heavy K-Tec Stealth

    Folk have been doing this mod for years mate. Worthwhile doing even on a stock system imo

    Cam Time!

    Avoid Scotland when it comes to mapping. Only get mapping on a Clio done at a specialist who knows these cars. Iv had my fingers burnt twice by general car mappers. IMO i wouldnt bother with cams. Its sooo much work and expense for not that much gain unless its stage 1 of a future build. Save...

    Just had a new cat fitted - is this normal?

    Get under the car while someone dabs the throttle. Put your hand over the tailpipe and do the blowing test etc

    First day of my Yozza race system

    Yeah its illegal to have a exhaust louder than the factory one. As Fred said grey area tho as how the hell do they really know how loud every car model is out the factory??

    what oil for 172?

    I just found the general consistency to be thin, almost like water compared to others. Also it would always knock a light out on the oil gauge and if you parked on any form of gradient you could see at least couple go out. When checked manually levels were fine. More evidence at its thin...

    what oil for 172?

    Its a bit on the thin side tbh

    270bhp Clio 172 cup with Audi TT engine

    Re: Cup TT ?? Nice contradiction. ''too many people on here live their lives by numbers, mines around 270 bhp so i feel i can comment'' :lolup::rasp:

    white 182!!! should i ???

    It will look awsome in white but thats a really low mileage example you have. Seems a shame to soil it Also full respray arent cheap

    cam belt and aux belt

    Unless its leaking or a high miler you probably wont need to change the water pump. Seems to be a CS trend. IIRC they very rarely fail. Its on the auxiliary belt anyway so even if it did go its not part of the ''big one''

    14" or 15" Steel wheels on a '05 182.

    Is it really worth it for the amount of snow we actually get? Be cheaper to lay the car up and use a taxi

    OZ F1's - The new turini?

    They'll be the OZ aftermarket ones not the Renault rare versions

    YMO2BUP my nephews just bought this

    LOL @ the replys. Car thats been ragged to death or one thats been treated with kid gloves, which would you choose? Easy answer really isnt it.....

    both belts changed?

    Roughly 250 area from a dealer

    OZ F1's - The new turini?

    You could buy F1's from OZ long before the ph1 172 was on the market. Another difference between the 2 is the 172 version has the outer lip where as the OZ aftermarket is a solid flat one

    OZ F1's - The new turini?

    IIRC sure a manafacturer still has to produce parts as a minimum of 10 years after the last vehicle rolled out the factory. Very much doubt Renault are at the stage of stock piled, once their done their done kind of thing. On your other post, OZ made a general based F1 wheel ;)

    OZ F1's - The new turini?

    I know a lad who sold a set of F1's for £30 back in the day ! - just wish i'd a bought them lol Probably the reason why their quite popular on other than ph1 models is their Renault / OZ based wheels , quite light and cheapish. From my experience 2nd hand is a minefield. Their not the...

    Renault Quote on Belt change

    ^^I was in the same boat mate. Job was a little more expensive local but worked out cheaper in the long run with petrol costs

    Renault Quote on Belt change

    If the dephasers noisey and your due a belt change then probably worth while getting it done but as Danny says its not a required parts service item. Water pumps another. Going from on here they dont seem to be a problem so unless your on high miles and its never been done is it worth the...

    172 sounds like an scooby?

    Did you unplug any of the sensors or spill any oil where it could have caused a potential prob? Knock a injector etc ?

    Dephaser change question?

    You dont need to change the other pulley (exhaust pulley). 1x aux and 1x cambelt kits iirc + dephaser if you need it
