So I've come across a 1.2 16v 137k Phase 2 from a work mate. It's got 2 months MoT left.
It's been crashed once thru a fence but has been repaired since but poorly.
The exhaust has snapped at the cat.
The shocks are shocking.
The ARB needs rebushing.
Brakes need doing.
EML has been on for last...
Circlip damaged in gearbox?
I'm no expert but its rings a bell from something I've read before.
@NorthloopCup, @bloke
One of the above will know for sure.
So this morning I managed to bump the back of a Hilux in the kangoo.
Minimal damage to the Hilux obviously...
The Os wing and headlamp are goosed. The frame the headlamp sit in (panel mask?) Is a bit bent but salvageable.
It's the inner wing end I'm concerned about. Any thoughts from anyone...
No reason you can't have fun in a 1.2 I'm sure.
Power mods will be non existent I'm guessing.
I'd strip the s**t out of the car. Right down to removing unnecessary looms etc.
Decent coilovers. (?)
Oz F1 alloys from Ph1 172 are fairly light but others are lighter I'm sure.
Air filter
Exhaust (?)...

Full front end suspension refresh and upgrade last month for MOT to cup dampers and springs
New engine mounts x3
New windscreen.
New Rainsports on front (1K ago)
Could do with front bumper respray and a few dings pulling. ( Boot, drivers door)
Wheels need a refurb.

If the door lock is just spinning in circles it could have been frozen. This happens to my driver's door in cold weather. Dumping some warm water on the lock fixes it up straight away.
Thanks for the response, I'm looking for something more fast road setup than track/competition. Doesn't look to be many options that are reasonably priced so far. I'll probably stick with a new OEM one.. I've recently new OEM top and bottom engine mounts, I have an evol engineering dogbone also.
Hi all. Had the wipers off recently to fix the washer bottle pump and since refitting the drivers side developed a squeak. (New blades at Same time)
After about a week the drivers side wiper suddenly stopped and the pass side get carried on and the wipers became out of sync. The drivers sides...
If Renault were clever I would imagine they would have used the same circuitry in the ECUs and then uploaded the correct EEPROM for the correct car, however having never seen inside an ECU I can't confirm anything of use to you I'm afraid.
Does anyone know if non sport ph1 washer bottle are ph1 172 compatible?
Looking to replace mine for MOT due to leaks.
From looking at eBay images they all seem to be single pump, 2 line models. Are there any differences in bottle shape or mounting points etc? Anyone know ?
