Found out a couple of weeks ago the car may have a fault...
Basically giving it some s**t down some nice lanes, coming upto a stop sign I apply the anchor's...uhh nothing but a solid pedal with the usual kicking.
The car wasn't stopping, it took the best part of 50 metres for car to stop...
Had a browse on Kamracing's website earlier, and Im thinking of upgrading my KTR coilovers for some FK's.
*Note, ive found the KTR coilovers to have a s**t rebound rate, has anyone else?
Anyway, Im looking for fast road mainly, with hopefully a few trackdays thrown into the mix.
Renault...
FCS newbie here, about to buy tickets with stand pass.
Just wandered what time to arrive etc? if there is any sort of layout planned, I dont wanna fook it up lol
Can anyone recommend me some where to take the Clio to in Somerset?
tried alignmycar.co.uk and it only found service centres in bristol - uh no thanks.
Pulled out of a junction by my house, gave it some beans before slowing right down for a speed bump...go over the speedbump, go to pull away and the engines died... :dapprove:
Ive checked the gay red button under the bonnet, relays and most visable connectors etc and have got no where.
Just...
Spotted this is Morrisons petrol station with its Cliosport.net sticker on show :rasp:
Ph1 Silver,Black/anthracite wheels with red/pinky :D lip.

Well cant say im too surprised?
Car had been juddering when pulling away for around 3 months (done it when I bought it)
Tonight, on the way home I approach a round about, put the clutch in (feels abit lighter then usual) pull away in 1st and just hear a light crrrrrshhhhhhhh noise when pulling...
Hello guys,
Being bored at work has got me thinking...
I've owned my Ph1 172 for 4 months now, and at this stage I usually end up getting bored of car's and plonk em on Pistonheads.
This is my 2nd 172, although its not as good as my 1st one, Im actually really content to keep it.
My question...
Bought my car with 75k on the clocks...generally really tidy with everything inplace like it should be.
Took some advice that a couple of mounts were worn in the old engine compartment. Being only £10 dearer then Renault, I decided ok i'll take an uprated mount then please... (no brainer...
Hi guys,
If anyone could knock me up a quick shop, that would be great.
Looking for the wheels to be Black, Side strips colour coded with colour coded bullets (bonus points if you can manage the 2.016v writing in red)
Red calipers, Red diamonds and Red mirror caps!
Bottom picture is...
Well, picked this up last weekend for £2000. Completly std Ph1 172.
75k, just had a 'service' generally OK condition yet needs some tlc.
Next day I venture down to Ktec for some coilovers :approve:
Fitted them last Sunday, taking 3 hours in the process (never done coilovers before and im...
Basically guys, im looking to put my 182 wheels up for sale.
They are in excellent condition, no kurbing at all and have been freshly powdercoated in white to a very high standard (they've had the diamond taken out etc)
they would come with 4 tyres, 2 on the backs aint nothing special, but 2...
Picked this up on Wednesday after a 300mile trip.
So far so good, no rust, 80k on the clocks.
Needs a new air filter/box, and exhaust needs looking at.
im chuffed as larry with the lil car, not as nippy as I would have thought though, but I have just left the turbo scene for it.
Anyhow...
Hello guys, yes i know its not a clio, just thought id pick some of your minds on my missus punto.
Basically its an 01 plate 1.8HGT with 54k on the clocks.
2 weeks ago coming back from london at 70mph on the motorway, she was getting sudden dips in power (hiccup style) it cleared and she...

ok, got lowered by the max the coilovers would yesteday, for the fun of it.
The handling is all over the place atm, so going to attempt to fiddle with it (in the rain today) to correct it.
I know its too low at the front, is being on the lowest setting going to be straining the shocks ie...

Im sure many of you know its an old airfield, and the surface can be a little 's**t'.
Is there anything I should do to my car in preparation? As I was there last time to 172's were running and they...
