    Subframe mount lower suspension arm hole wear - check your Clio!

    Are you sure about the 12mm, cause this would mean 1,2 cm !? A reallllly thick washer :eek: My Renault specialist said that in the track cars they have also encountered this and they welded two half moon shapes, almost like these washers, on there !!

    These are my car Symptoms...

    watertemp sensor Engine has a limiter programmed in it for when running cold so it holds back when cold. I've read a lot about faulty watertemp sensors that can cause these sort of probs ; when ecu thinks engine is cold, it will hold back try/change it and see what happens, Can't hurt...

    how can i tell if the car has got cams or not ?

    because after pretty much talking + asking about all of it he is really supposed to tell me. You ca'nt ask as much money when selling modded cars; at least here you do'nt "my reaction to buying a tuned car of which i thought was a virgin."

    Cap Off to GDI

    this is a nice read about GDI , seem like a great bunch of serviceminded people. However; why do the moderators leave this thread alone , leaving it here in the Engine + gearbox section, while i remember some people doing the same (yep me too) , appreciating-thanking K-tec for example; and...

    Best Semi Synthetic Oil For a Ph1 172

    Me too, the difference it made to the Reno recommended stuff was quite noticable ; with the Elf i could really hear my engine when cold, put in the Motul and no noise whatsoever anymore !!

    how can i tell if the car has got cams or not ?

    I'm basing that on what he just told me. The best man is a Renault specialist who's had his shop doing all kind of Renault sports since '78 . I would'nt know how it looks/what to look for.. He also told me not to worry (cam-job wise) when i was on the phone like this ; "ohhh no" This was...

    how can i tell if the car has got cams or not ?

    Dug up my old thread to notstart another one ; Just called the specialist who is doing the cambelt/cam change service and guess what; He had it all open to change the cams + inlets etc. and he said the head has been worked on/ported already by previous owner.. I always suspected something...

    ^^ none ? Matched is matched i'm guessing Nice results ! Before a cat , after no cat ?
  16. franx

    Thinking of having the 172 cammed up, any opinions?

    I think the Schricks are like 250 pounds more expensive than Cat !? Not slightly more expensive i would say . Correct me if i'm wrong about the price Schricks are very good cams, I'm having Colombo & Bariani cams put in mine this week (finally) , also high quality cams. Same price for both...

    Andy does have a point, this has been discussed to death.. anyway, you now know the partno.'s etc. It's a good mod , especially when already having your exhaust done, + mapped for more in+out

    matched inlets?

    they seem to "learn" /adapt but within it's OEM setup limitations. The remap would'nt be neccescary if the ecu would adapt itself to the change in the inlets. For example, i had a Simota Aeroform and the car never adapted to cope with the large amount of air coming in (was total s**t, lost...

    matched inlets?

    It can be a bit of a pain , as i've understood from reading around.. Does'nt one of the enginemounts have to come loose to tilt the engine a little for needed working-space ?? Anyone done them themselvs that can varify ?
