16" oz F1s

Good price, nice colour (although a b**ch to keep clean). Expect it to be mint with that mileage but do the normal checks, have a look at the 172mk1 guide in the guides section some of that will apply.

That is one worn steering wheel.

Yeah that would have been me!! I didnt see you though.

I was told by my insurance (Admiral) if the crack/chip was bigger than a 5p they would have to replace the windscreen. Needless to say my crack was the length of a £20 note and they replaced it (i could choose who came out) but I had to pay a £70 access, no premium on the renewal and admiral...

^Did you have a nice holiday Edde?

As above they will go straight on but make sure you lower it first. If they have 205s the might rub at the rear.

Yeah, nice colour but its the wrong shape:

Spotted mark in his inferno 182 this evening around 8pm on the perimeter road, I also passed and flashed a standard black 172mk1 that I thought may have been Baj but it didnt have the ph2 rear lights. Anyone??

Have you got a big vice clamp on a workbench? If you can get it out clamp it and undo it.

As above, a word of warning, when you disconnect the pipes the car will piss water/wash all over your drive.

There must be a fault somewhere with the wiring, could be a relay, crossed wire or faulty earth. Its definatly a red 5 amp fuse. Look in the manual, its the position that says dual optic lights.

Its the one with the symbol of a light with 3 straight lines next to it. Its the only one where the lines are not straight.

Are we alking mk1 or mk2ph1???

No I dont think so, the 172discs are one of the biggest Renault do: 280mm, they are also on the Laguna, Scenic, Kangoo van and Meganes.

Nice pics, what sized tyres have you got on them wheels?

Where is the Halfords in Leicester? St georges?

Has the cambelt/aux belt ever been changed. The clutches on Clios are fairly stiff compaired to other cars.

Love the colour, are the wheels Porsche replica's?

Very smart, and thumbs up for having a 5 door.

Nice work, I think Im going to need some new rears for my MOT.

I had one above my mirror but because the 172 has a heat reflective screen, it doesnt show up that well through the tint.

Giles was selling some, pm giles.

If you dont have a cup, they should have changed the tensioner on the aux belt. It could be the little pulley at the bottom, this is more exposed to the elements and could be making a little noise, it is accesible if you want to try greasing the inside, i take it the noise is coming from this...

Spotted today around 2:30 going along ayelstone road near where the speed camera is. Anyone?

When I got mine they needed the VIN plate and the s/n number that was actually on the head unit.

Yes they are, its a 14" Oz F1 wheel. Renault sold them as an optional extra in 14" and 15". The are in the official accesories brochure for the mk2ph2.

Thats 4 valves per cylinder mate.

Me neither, to confuse things more that part number on it is the same as the 172mk1 plenum. Did renault just modify there existing tooling and not bother changing the number?

Am I right in thinking they look exactly the same?
