Got my car back last friday... Tom you was right it is a different box... More chunky looks tougher dont it.... Did you think it was better though as in changing gear etc??
I might be getting my car back tonight with a spanking new gear box, they said it might be finnished and to give them a call at 4.... but then again its a renault garage thats fixing it so...... maybe not
Sorry guys.... After all the sh*ty problems I have had from my little 1.2 16v I have decided not to get the 172 now... Im going for a reliable Civic Type R...
I have been searching for 8 months now for a place that could remap my ECU.... I think my search is now complete as I got a reply from this company saying they can help me!

What you lot think? Especialy all u 1.2 owners
Has anyone here ever managed to break a chunk off your geargox housing where the bolt goes into the mount bit????
I have spoken to lots of people and they have never heard of this... how the feck did it happen to mine then????
I drove to pick up a friend and clonk!!!! My bloody engine mount snaped on a 2002 1.2 16v.... not just an engine mount mind u its the bloody gearbox!!!! f**k sake.... pile of sh*te
Was at a cruise on Saturday up near j24 of M1.... Sat in a mates car who had a box of 3 subs just fitted..... It was SOOO Bassy that my eyes vibrated and I couldnt see.... impressive eh!
Well I booked in my car to have the engine checked out... Its become very loud knocking under the engine and loud tapping above.... I think I have killed it already..... Now it comes back to me why I brought a new car and not a second hand one..... Warrenty.....
I been trying for about 9 months to get a remap for my 1.2 16v..... I dont think anyone is going to do one.... BTW dont buy my car its probably running so lean the valves will be f**ked by the time im finnished with it.
Im thinking to myself I need some new alloys for my 1.2 16v... It aint got no power so might as well make it look good eh... I really like the OZ wheels on the CUP but what you lot think? I found a place that will do them new with tyres for £700........
My engine is knackered after 8500 miles.... LAst night it become really really loud knocking tappet noise... I know they are not quiet but now its stupidly noisy.... With that and the yellow gunk by the filler cap, have I killed it already?
Wow thats the first time I have ever seen it..... Normally cars dont register any speed when you wheel spin but new clios do.... I was having some fun on a ice ring and went through the gears up to 5th and got 125mph!!!! Felt like back the the future LOL
ice is cool

There must be one of you that know how to turn ABS off on these new clios. I have tried the blue fuse in the fuse box passenger door side. The ABS still worked and the light went off as normal.... What the hell does that fuse do?

Ahhhhhh.... Just ordered my new tyres, 195 50 15s instead of 185 55 15s a total saving of £24 a tyre. They are Bridgestone Potenza RE720 got a very good write up better that Goodyear f1s... £51 each tyre fitted......
I now have wider fronts than rears so should be able to get oversteer...

Why is it when F1 used to have turbo cars manufactures were pushing out there sporty turbo cars... Now days it seems they are working really hard on engine design and getting lots of BHP out of N/A engines... But why not still turbo?? They could have produced a 1.6 16v VVT engine that produced...
How many people would have a remap doneto their 1.2 16vs if you could get 11 Bhp and 13% torque???
