    Considering sacking off the car all together.

    Am I mad? To be honest, I'm totally fed up with how much money running a car costs these days, so I really am considering just getting rid. I was going to get rid of the Clio in Feb (insurance runs out) and get a TT, but I'm seriously thinking of getting rid all together? I'd have to...

    Two Blue 172's in Gillingham? Orange wheels

    Apparently these are always there? I drove past yesterday with a class mate in the car and noticed them. Judging by the mods it must be someone off of here?

    Macbook Valuation

    This is not a for sale thread FYI, I'd just like some apple guru's opinion on how much my MBP would go for second hand. It's the 13" 11 months old, 2 years 1 month apple care left on it, mint condition. I'm unsure upon exact spec as it's not in front of me but I think its 2.3 core 2 duo 250GB...

    Losing Water (A Fair Bit) HELP?

    So, my car's always used a bit of water, but the amount was rather insignificant. (Just needed a top up every 4-6 months or so) Did a coolant change with a member off of here (flushed from bottom rad hose and changed thermostat) since then, I'm losing a fair bit of water, I mean I went from...

    Black Ph1 Broken Down Dartford Bridge (Road Parrallel To m25)

    Was quite heavily modded and you'd pulled up onto the grass on the dual carridgeway that runs parallel to the m25 on the anticlockwise approach to the dartford tunnel. Anyone off here? If I wasn't giving it hell down there I'd have stopped and offered to help out, I did try to brake, but...

    Vodafone, not a great network for iPhone?

    Well, I know it's early days but so far my first impressions with Vodafone aren't great. Firstly, no visual voicemail? Really? I mean there's only been like 3 iPhones since they weren't exclusive to o2, so maybe they haven't had enough time to update their system? Also, I'm not sure if...

    Knocking on acceleration/braking...

    Hoped it would just the balljoint bolts being loose, but it's not. I can replicate the knocking by grabbing the wheel at 12 and 6, there's a fair bit of movement.... top mounts?

    MBP Output Question...

    So, the gf popped into apple tonight for me, to pick up a "Mini display port to VGA connector", when in there the guy badgered her to buy the Mini display port to HDMI connector, saying that as my TV was HD, this would be better.... Now, I intend to use this so that I can play films off my MBP...

    Clean, "Spaced" Ph1

    After widening the track 50mm this weekend, taking some god awful photos of it (and being moaned at for them)... I pulled my finger out, gave the car a wash and popped somewhere for some half decent photos. Nothing too exciting, and they're only iPhone pics as I seem to have lost my camera...

    Thermostat rubber seal replacement

    Where do I get one of these from?? From what I've read, when changing the coolant you need to put a new one of these on, is it a Renault only job? If so, part number?

    "Ticking" from passenger wheel?

    Mainly when pulling off/changing direction? I've been led to believe it's driveshaft (well CV joint) but could it be a wheel bearing? Or something else entirely? It's a very noticeable ticking, also happens at slow speed when coming on and off the thottle or hitting a bump? All...

    Thanks South East Lot :)

    Just a thank you to everyone for actually turning up on time etc, and a general well done for a very successful convoy. I've never managed to keep so many car's relatively together. Over 25 in total I believe. Sorry for the slight wrong turn, blame Scrooge.

    This is for those that have dampening adjustment only ... Has anyone got the info on how they're adjusted? I've either lost, or never had mine...? Basically, the little "bit" on top of the struts pops up and down... Do I need to up or down to adjust? Also, which way makes it...

    FAO All Ph1 172 Owners -Throttle

    Just a little note here for the ph1 172 owners on here... Ever since owning my car, it's had quite a stiff throttle pedal, I assumed this was just due to it being cable and not electric like the ph2... this weekend my cable frayed, and with this the pedal got VERY notchy, so it had to be...

    Clutch cables

    Do they need to be genuine?? Renault are over £42 and don't stock it... non gen is about 25 quid, does it make much difference?

    Self adjusting clutch mechanism?

    Am I right in saying the 172 has one? Can they break? What is the mech (if it has one) part of? i.e what do I need to buy to replace??

    ** So my clutch has just "gone" - UPDATE 3 - Burning Smell? **

    As far as I was aware, the clutch is something that slowly wear's away... Buy today I went to get in my car, (which has been amazing lately) and it judders heavily as I pull away. I didn't think much of it, but then it does it the next time I go to pull away, and then it turns out it does it...
