    brake caliper slider pins

    Hi, My 2002 ph2 172 seems to have a lot of play in the caliper relative to the carrier. Do these cars tend to wear the pins, or the carriers themselves? I found these http://m.ebay.com/itm/261437140249?_mwBanner=1 But no confirmation that they fit a 172. Does anyone know if they're correct...

    what size spacers do people run?

    cheapest place for 'tuner' style wobble bolts?

    I bought some wheels which were listed as 4*100 and they turn out to be 4*98. As I like them and I've already had tyres fitted, I'd like to for them using wobble bolts. Due to the small bores around the bolts I need 'tuner' style bolts with an internal spline as opposed to external hex. Can...

    Do any renaults come with an oil to air oil cooler with a thermostatic sandwich plate?

    Ebay produces loads of oil to water sandwich plates off diesel models, and a suggestion that the laguna may have had an oil to air one, but no details.

    Service light as a result of missing airbags

    From what I've read on here, the service light comes on when there is an airbag fault, along with the airbag light?
