It wasnt me, but I did spot an Inferno 182 yesterday going through kirkby mallory, also some guy in a silver 172 or 182 followed me out of Barwell monday morning along the perimeter road.

Followed a inferno 182 through kirkby mallory today around 17:30, sure it had a sticker, either that or my eyes need testing. Anyone?

Let a black 182 out of the visitors carpark at work around 5pm tonight, was it anyone on here?

from a window pic:

Spotted a slightly dirty black meganesport yesterday in barwell town centre, was it meganechick? I was in my wifes scenic.

Spotted various cars today around Atherstone on the A5, spotted a 172 exclusive heading towards tamworth. Spotted a blue 182 the other way, and a silver 182 on the roundabout.

I should have worded it better, you pull the whole lot forward. So the black mount buffer needs to be moved forward as far as it will go with the bolts loose.

It could be the 8v or 16v.

Yeah, although I believe the part number did change.

The grey sensor is the air temp sensor iirc. Is it a 172mk1 or mk2, the mk1 has a 24mm arb, but the ends pieces are 23mm. Im not sure if the mk2 is the same.

Its really frustrating that renault never learn from their design flaws/picking poor quality materials, the 172ph1, 172ph2, 182 and now 197 all had this problem. Also it must be 10X worse in warmer countries..

Theres lots of threads about this, you can try using cable ties to support the mount. You can try replacing the mid mount to give the rear more support. Or you can try inserting pieces of hose pipe or something else into the rubber holes in the mount to push the exhaust up.

It could be either of the above, check the alignement of the abs sensor and the abs ring on the driveshaft is ok

Thats a bloody bargain then as the 172mk1 mount from renault is £70

http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=240464 Since writing this ive found some earlier cars dont have the provisions for the fuse to be added in the fuse box.

That is the twisted mount used on the172ph2s, your 172mk1 has the straight type so it wont fit.

I have to agree with this. PE2s are amazing for cornering, but lack in everything else.

Thats bad luck dude, but at least you were not hurt. Its seems so sad when another 172ph1 is broken up. Are you saying your tyres were fucked before the crash, did you not notice this??

The Renault one looks nothing like them above.

As above, visual inspection of the belts. Also on the other end of the block, see if there are scratches around the cam seals where they have been prized off.

As above it will be fine as long as the bleed screw is open when you are refilling. Its when you suck air in the brake res you want to worry!!

No the twin barrel can have 1 or 2 sensors, easiest thing is to jack the car up and if theres a sensor just after the cat, it should be the longer type (same exhaust as a ph2).

http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=240464 Since writing this guide some very early mk2ph1s dont have the provisions for the extra fuse needed.

To confuse things though, the twin barrel type cat comes in 1 and 2 sensor form.

The last 3 digits will depend on year/batch etc as the engine was slightly changed several times. However I would have thought the bottom ends will be the same.

Not the best of pics:

Faulty lambda sensor can cause performance issues iirc.

Spotted a nice 172cup on black oz f1s at mallory park, also spotted it on a the back of a low loader coming out!! Im sure it had a sticker.

Type D or the advanced formulation stuff from halfords will be ok.

Yeah that sound right.
