Also no engine warning lights and I would say on idle it is struggling. Thanks

..............gears (mainly first when pulling away). Car still feels ok once I get past say 1.5k revs. Situation - this seems to have got worse over time - I have replaced spark plugs, air filter, cleaned TB, etc but wondering what else to try? Assume I should replace HT leads and the coil...

...............have a friend at work who has a major misfire with her Clio. Engine management light on and it dies when starting up. Barely runs at all. Any common faults? Ideas? Thanks

Is there a smaller roll cage available without having too loose back seats and fairly simple to fit? Thanks

Any potential of a meet in Newquay for Run to the Sun this year? Last few years have been very poor so perhaps a time for a mass SW meet?!

Brakes much better? Harder pedal feel?

Defo up for another meet, sorry had to dash but good to see you. Is it worth creating a SW dist list to email all when a meet comes up? Just a thought as there are a lot of us about!

Anyone? Just wondering what else I could try!?

Forgot to mention, I also have a very rough idle (not normal as they do miss slightly). Thanks

Anyone? Thanks

GSF about £14 so i'm told.

It stands for 'Full Fat' I think rather than a Cup. Mine is making almost a whirring noise and very annoying when doing 60mph +

Mine only had a rear bearing fitted in May 08 and needs a new one already. Cheapest place for a rear bearing for a Mrk 2 172 FF?

If it gets gradually worse surely this must be fixable? Thanks for the reply, what do you mean by half then full?

Right, nothing on clip at all. Renault technician (experienced chap) noted problem but could not diagnose. I am lost with this, but have checked and when I press accelerator slightly and hold pedal the revs fluctuate constantly. Does anyone have any ideas? I'm lost!!

Cannot get a 172 / 182 / V6 manual apart from some floating around on a particular auction website :rasp: Hope this helps.

Pretty sure its 5.1 litres?

Booked the car in to Renault next week to get this checked out. Mine seems to geet worse after longer travel and when I hit traffic. Will keep you posted.

Fitted a 100mm jubilee clip on my CV boot but when wheel / shaft rotate the tightening clip is rubbing on the strut!

Booked mine into Renault next week with a similar problem, seems worse the longer i travel and bumper to bumper traffic is a nightmare as feels it is going to stall. Hoping it will not be clutch related! I do have, however, a lumpy idle so hoping it will be throttle problem rather than.

Disconnected the plug on the throttle pedal, pressed the pedal down a few times, reconnected the plug and it seems better (at least i think it feels better!)

Disconnected the plug on the throttle pedal today and acceleration seems better again?! Have I reset something by doing this?

Pm sent - I'm sure it is DBW. Thanks

............is the butterfly fully closed upon Idle? Thanks

What is most likely to affect the weak idle, the TB or the throttle pedal?

Sold to me - nice one :rasp:

Did mine a few weeks ago, very easy job and I am no mechanic!

Wow, thats cheap :S

Similar problem to mine....... http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=225279 Let me know if you get any joy! Defo a rough spot with mine at lower rev range when taking off. Cheers
