In a last ditch attempt i'm trying something out there and random as a fix for spit inner CVs. Using a large bicycle tube repair patch (the soft stretchy rubber) and cutting it into a bananna shape I am able to cover a significant area of the small split. Im going to glue it on as per usual...

Just noticed the new driveshaft inner cv has split on me, same place as on the last one.... what could the cause be? Pissed off indeed:mad:

I know that the usual way to go is the brackets, belt and alternator from the cup. Burp has done it a different way using Volvo parts I think and someone else using Saab. Hope James doesn't mind me borrowing his pics from his thread but why isn't the 5 gtx bracket below used as a cheap...

As above, I know that renault have them down as different part numbers but the likes of bosch have then as the same. Is there technically / mechanically any difference between the two, could they be interchanged perhaps?

Anyone apart from performanceleads do different colour ht leads for the 1*2?? They have ran out of the ends of them until late august apparantly. Not looking for blue or red which seem to be had pretty handy from the usual spots.

As above where does one get their hands on a map just so that the car starts and runs to enable it to be mapped properly? Going to try Andy on Monday but would anyone have a copy of one handy?

These codes came up on the car and I havnt a baldy what they are even for? P0500 - Speed sensor 'a' malfunction. What would cause this? P0443 - EVAP emission purge valve C fault- huh? Then these I suspect is a faulty lambda even on the decat an tho it isnt running rough or anything just a bit...

As the good weather approaches I thought I'd put up some pics my 5 door before work begins and the changes occur. Feel free to comment and I await the 'extra door' haters :rasp: I don't really post that many pics of it but maybe i'll start And one more because I love the pic

Got a drivshaft sent to me this morning, presumably a drivers side as requested but looks nothing like mine at all. This is the one that was sent to me with part number 8200 225212 Mine looks like this (stozzas pic): Can anyone check the part number for me or know from the pic what the...

As above, if anyone has the part numbers for dialogies and a price if its there for a accelerator cable pedal assembly and the cable. Im presuming that bar the actual metal shiny pedal all the mk2 ph1s are the same?

Has anybody come across a good colour match for the antracite alloys?

Let's see the pics of anyone that has painted their rocker/cam cover or has a colour scheme going on in their bays. Looking for inspiration and colours for mine, bright/lairy colours welcome :rasp:

Anyone any idea what this fuse controls? It keeps blowing everytime I start the car and try and drive off, seems to have some electrical current going through it when the keys arent even in the car, it sparks when a new fuse is put in and then blows on drive off. Any ideas??:(

Need to replace my drivers side shaft, are there any differences between the ph1 + 2 172, 182 and cup models? Need one from a ph2 172 non cup, any others fit?

Car decided to stop this morning, luckily I had just came off the motorway and was going around a roundabout. Heres the symptoms: - Going at slow speed (20mph) the frequency box starts flashing and I lose all power, revving does nothing -Pulled over stopped ingnition and tried to start...

Been asked for advice from a mate but certainly isn't something I know too much about. So he has a couple of questions for the cliosport gurus: ECU - Whats are peoples opinions on the best value for money/ user/ installer friendly standalone? Omex seems to certainly be the most popular for...

The fuse in the 'STOP' position of the fusebox which presumably controls the speedo, revs, oil temp, fuel and brake light keeps blowing every time I press the brake. Took me about 3 fuses to realise that it was when I was braking that was the cause. Any ideas on where to start? :S

Does anyone know how to adjust toe on the 1*2s?? Thought I was running positive camber but after a quick check I think it might just be too much toe-in Cheers

Has anyone used a magnetic camber gauge before? Looking at the Sealey ones priced around the £40 mark and thinking it might be handy enough to have instead of paying out everytime the car goes up or down.

Quicky question, The inner cv boot on the offside driveshaft (the middle boot between the gearbox and brake side boot) has split a bit and chucking grease all over the show, is this a driveshaft out job and replacing the gaiter or a whole other driveshaft number? Cheers C

Just developed the usual sound of a dephasher pulley on its way out (tractor time, same as how Dr Rollos car did) but what other checks can I do to rule anything else out before I make shapes towards sorting the dephaser??:dapprove:

As above on the bay now ending this Sunday http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Renault-Clio-Alcantara-dash-t-screen-7-Monitor-172-182_W0QQitemZ130264890621QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item130264890621&_trkparms=72%3A1345%7C39%3A1%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C240%3A1318&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

So im fitting some gaz rear shocks (no opinions on that needed :rasp:) all fine and dandy but the nuts that go on top from the original shocks are ever so slightly too big and just wont catch enough to tighten... are the gaz shock top nuts different or any thoughts on what I can do? Cheers

May come across as stupid but how do you download the maps from the website? Clickign on them just opens them up in giberish

Ok so.... As some of you might know the story behind my 5 door 182, its completely converted with all running gear etc so there isn't an issue with that. Trying to get RS Tuner to work and in conversation with Henk he says that the airbag computer needs changed to that of a 172 / 182 vin and it...

Because of the engine transplant I have no idea about what the VIN number is from the donor car which I think I need to input for RS Tuner to work. Any help greatly appreciated!!!:cool:

My usb snapped off earlier as I set the laptop down and kicked it! the usb bit is completely off so just leaving the pcb intact, so Im hoping the memory isn't affected. No, I dont make copies or saves elsewhere and it has alot of work I need off it, has anyone got any good advice on what I could...

Ok so a while back I had a problem of the 172 running on 2 cylinders, I had changed the coil pack,HT leats, spark plugs and both llambdas. It was still present after they were changed but mysteriously they just went away and all was fine. Just yesterday the same problem seems to have come back...
