Rare colour think its the rarest of the 172's ph2.

I had my lil dynamique for a good 3 years, went to a 172 but really wouldnt have gone the extra cost of a 172 if it was gonna break the bank mate, sounds like you thought it through, all good things come to those who wait.

Cool I'll look out for you, you not the craig7777 from sheffieldforum are you ? Cant stand his so called jokes :rasp:

I was told the same on my 36K service, they said just wait until the cambelt was to be done as this would be in the same area (They said doing the aux belt would need the bumper off taking 4 hours labour) I brought my cambelt change forward so got the cambelt an aux belt done at around 38K/4 years.

Hi, I attempted this on my mk2 172, got all the tools an what no and started the task, however I got stuck removing 2 cables to the plenham. I have a pic which shows the approx location of the cables that dont seem easy to remove, the red ones I have taken off no probs, although the purple...

First time I seen that site, the forum seems a bit out of control, i guess they mostly spamming bots.

looks low, I often wonder if i should paint my calipers but the car is stock, so not sure if it would suit it. Pink ipod too!

Welcome aboard.

Hi, i am changing my plugs on my 172 (its 38K on the clock, an almost 5 yr old) I have been reading on the forum an NGR plugs seem to be regarded as the best, so i will get them by sat. Is this something a novice can do ? and do I need any special tools for removing the cover etc ? (I know the...

Nice, although the ariel looks a bit long (Never knew they were that long, will have to check mine) Talking of lexus lights, i saw a silver RS clio with the black ones (not the ones on k-tec, it was a diff style) an they looked really good.

You seem chuffed with your car and im sure many other people admire it too, its not too my taste tho if im honest. I know plenty of people who would see say my car behind yours an like yours much more, its just how you feel about cars I guess.. My dad asks me when im adding lexus lights etc to...

Why on earth do you drive around public roads with the front tow hook attached ? I been trying to think of a reason other then to look different (a tool)! I can think of plenty of cons tho if you want me to list some ?

I dont like the bras, I'd sooner drive my car around for say 3 years without one, at the end of my ownership have a buyer haggle £50 off for the stone chips he spots than drive around with one of them on for the whole time I own the car.. Each to thier own tho m8.

So you cant play a downloaded game on your psp cos the memory card is a fake, your all crooks :)

I questioned if my was done on my 36K service, and the dealer said no, as it was a big job an best left until the cam belt chance, which was no big issue as that is in 2 weeks, but would have been unhappy if the cam belt change was some time away.

Is is a red Clio ? I seen a V6 with a plate like that, thought it was a ph1 tho, I could be mistaken.

Thanks for your replys. My car is on 37K miles now, and the AUX belt was not changed on my 36K service! (not sure if this is normal, because it says in the service book it should have been done, but apparently to do the aux belt is a big job) So I have my car booked in, in Feb for the cam belt...

Hi guys, I seen this thread and have had a same sort of problem at times. Im looking at this and would like to see if my TDC is the problem, however I had a quick look today and couldnt spot it (at te pics above it looks like its on the left hand side of the engine lump ? ) Here is my bay...

Hi, I have a squeeky steering wheel, and thought it could be my power steering wheel fluid, howeever I can really tell what level my fluid is at, the plastic seems to think to see what the level of fluid is at inside. I have taken this pic of the bottle, show seems empty to me.. Do you think...

Thanks I'll try an spot that, im totally non mechnical tho. I can hear the starter motor trying like crazy, an it can take a good 10 secs then she bursts into life (With really high idle RPM can be like 1.5K for 10 secs) Or other times she starts first time no problem, other times it takes 4...

Hi guys, can anyone help direct me to the location of the TDC sensor ? I have been told it could be the reason my 02 reg 172 often fails to start (The battery is apprantley in good nick) Thanks in advance.

Hi Edd, I have I problem starting today, do you know any pictures or advise for the location on the sensor ? I have no idea where to begin looking :o

Hi, does anyone own one of these multimedia players that can capture video with the optional cam ? I'm thinking of getting one for sports and maybe attaching it to my car and recording driving routes an the like. If any one has any experiance they would like to share I would like to hear them.

Seen a silver clio 172 around here a few times before but saw the reg today, along with the sun flower ariel topper :) Are you on here ? You was parked up at the ASDA in Chapletown.

I second that, he is always helpful in the Tuning & Mechanical threads.
