who are bbpt? also im not unhappy with the breaking but as i have to change them anyways i thought it best to see if there were any better options on the market. Sorry for the wrong section and not checking etc. Please could a mod move this
just checking which brake pads people recommend. Need some new rear pads for my 172 just checking if anyone had opted on anything other than the factory fit ones?
also what kinda price should i be paying. Im just after the parts will fit them myself?
thanks
right i have been informed by renault uk that the 172 infact does NOT need the belt doing at 36k. If the car was produced after may 1st 2002 then it will need this replacing @ 72k the same as all the other clios. I didnt think this was correct but have checked this twice and have been told it is...
my power steering is whining. It loudest when the steering wheel is on full lock and being pushed further ie to its max lock and held there. The car i sonly two years old som im hoping its under warranty. Just wondered if anyone knew th elikely cause? im guessing its some kind of belt thats...
right nope its by were the light dimming switch is. I have popped the panel where u can dim the dash and have found there are two looms both with around 5/6 wires on coming from the main wiring trunk. Is it possible its the wiring looms for maybe the esp/traction and or the cruise control. I...
right driving my car yesterday i was getting a very high pitched vibration noise when accelerating hard. I looked into this problem to find what appears to be two wiring looms/harnesses just dangling down behind my dash. Im confused as to what these are for as nothing has stopped working so it...
there not open saturdays and open i believe form 9-5ish. Cant remember the blokes name but hes a friendly chap, quite well priced must say i was impressed with the fitting of my bodykit on my old corsa. They are simply a bodyshop at bodytone so if u want tuning or styling u may need to look...

the car may run ok etc but i cant see him re-selling it on in a few years time, i guess it depends how long he wants to keep it. Couldnt he just get like a £1k loan or overdraft or credit card etc and get one slightly lower miles?
to be fair it depends which dealer you go to although i have had tremendous problems and countless issues with one another 10mins down th eroad seem to be very good. So with regards to the dealer i gues you need to find opinions from your area.
build quality isnt going to be audi/bmw...
i guess you cant win either way its just im getting more annoyed i suppose because i bought the car with the warranty in mind and the fact it woulnt cost "too much" to fix but its getting ridiculous now. £200 odd for the lower arm £150 odd for the cv boot and renault now want £900 for a new...
yep reading local so take your own conclusion as to which dealer has annoyed me. the problems are put right its just the money i have paid out over and above what i paid for the car i could have bought a 03 low miler instead of my 02 with now 38k on it. The reson im so annoyed is i had a vtr...
right after having no end of problems with my clio over the last 6months im seriously considering chopping her in and getting a golf. Im so fed up of nothing being covered under warranty everything breaking and the dealers being so poor its beyond belief. In the 6months iv had to have new clutch...
i have a few niggles with my clio172. Firstly there is a squeeking from seem,ingly behind/under the glove box but i just cant find it. Anyone had this problems?
also the steering wheel creaks or clicks when turning it appears to be coming from inside the wheel itself ie where the airbag is. Is...
whats the cheapest i can get a new key fob ( the infrared one ), the key blade and have the blade cut and the fob programmed. Its seems alot at £110 from renault.
its a silver 172. The problem i have is i cant justify the cots of renault especially after the trouble i have had with them in the past. the clutch isnt slipping seems to have seized inside but it will need to be changed eventually so i guess its gonnna cost me wherever i go
car had done 35k when i complained and is now on 38k. They said if i paid them £950 to have it done if it was a faulk with the clutch then they would pay 40% if not them tough luck and the £950 would come from my pocket. So rather than take the risk and still pay almost £600 i thought id go...
well i know they take alot less time than renault but i cant justify paying near on £1k for a new clutch on a 2yr old car so i gues they look the better option. they also offer a 2yr no questions asked garuentee so i guess if anything did go wrong it would be replaced/fixed. they also specialise...
has anyone had any dealings with them before. The branch in Reading to be precise. i need the clutch replacing on my 2002 172 and they have quoted as very very good price. I did have the clutch cable replaced there and they seem okay just this obviously is a much bigger job. Other than Mr Clutch...
well actually women in people carriers. For the second time this month i have had a women in a people carrier reverze into me. The first time they got away this time however i got details. Still dont know quite how she could have just ploughed into me.
Anyway just wanted to know how the front...
same has happened to me. granted mine has 36k on it but is same age. The renault twech said it seemed as if something had seized inside the clutch which was causingf the prob. Renault told me clutches are only covered for 12months. you may get a part payment but it would still be cheaper to go...
the sall screen is for the use of gps recieving equipment. The small area will allow signal through however signal wont come through or not very well through the rest of the screen. This is because it has a coating/ i smade to resists uv. The dynamique wouldnt have a uv resistant windscreen and...
the windscreen has never been allowed to be tinted. i think your getting conofused with the legislation that states only a certain amount of light can be blocked out from the front two windows. And now infact the front two windows shouldnt be tinted at all. You will notice the windows to be...
