    who knows in entire front wiper motor,arms etc mechnism on 1.6 fit 172?

    I'll say yes. washer bottle maybe different as there's an extra pump for the 172 Xenons, mind.

    Xenons ON, during the day?

    Difficult to prove whether it's actually any safer or not, I guess. Difficult to quantify accidents that haven't happened, or that a car is more conspicuous with low beam lights on in bright sunlight. I'm not sure, and my opinion stands that if people haven't seen your car it's because they...

    Xenons ON, during the day?

    lol at how quick you were to jump down his throat. I guess he should have worded it a bit better, though.

    Xenons ON, during the day?

    I don't in broad daylight. Pointless imho. People pull out on you because they've either a) not looked at all, or b) they've looked, spotted you and thought "f**k you pal, I'm pulling out anyway, you can brake". I do at dusk. Can be hard to see cars when looking into low sun. Always in rain...

    Samsung UE55D8000

    lol.... it's got a 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000:1 contrast ratio too, iirc lol What a f**king beautiful TV. I'm still very happy with my Panny TX-46G20B... The picture after calibration is absolutely amazing.... but that Samsung makes it look like it's 30 years old lol. Stunning

    Passat 170 Sport TDI vs clio 182

    I have a 140 Tdi Leon. My 172 would utterly destroy it tbh. Everywhere.

    Fastcar Clio 172 Air Filter Test

    Espace Airbox = emperors new clothes. Enough people have LOST power with that setup.

    Active Sub Wiring (Kenwood) with pics

    It won't cook it - That's what fuses are for, but agreed it's bad practice to take a supply for an amp from the back of the stereo - Especially with the relatively high power output head units you get these days, that's a potentially big load on the cable supplying the HU.

    Fastest DCi on the forum?

    I think there are a few tuned ones about. I'd imagine the stock gearbox/clutch could be a stumbling block if you're going for any major increase in torque.

    PC vs Consoles Official Thread

    As I alluded to earlier in the trhead, all PC gaming is, is willy waving. There you go getting all obssessed with pointless numbers. I always find the mouse to be annoying to use after a controller. It takes three 'lift' up and drags to turn round. Clumsy, tbh. The keyboard and mouse were...

    PC vs Consoles Official Thread

    They do. It's risky ground implying anything negative with regards to Macs, tbh. Could resuly in a perma ban. We actually have an Apple forum!! LOL!

    Consoles you've owned

    I forgot Gamecube, DS and Wii. Which should probably indicate how much I think of them lol.

    PC vs Consoles Official Thread

    Console. Unless you get a geek-fuelled erection about all the bullshit jargon and like seeing how high a geek score your latest 'rig' can get. In that case, it's PC for you. Also, why no mention of Macs?

    Consoles you've owned

    Sega Master System Sega Mega Drive SNES Gameboy Game Gear N64 PS2 Xbox Xbox 360 And an Amiga CD32. I win. Still got it lol.

    50mm Canon lens help... 1.8 vs 1.4

    It's far from perfect, but for the money it's hard to beat tbh. I also find 50mm a bit of an awkward focal length on a crop sensor..... it's a little too long in some situations.

    Oil change fail!

    Is it not just a dowty washer? Surely you can get one form anywhere? Unless it's an odd size?

    Emission light on + jumpy under slow acceleration

    RS Tuner should tell you if your lambda is ok. You should see, after it's been idling for a minute or so, the fuel mixture going from lean to rich in a repetitive cycle. EDIT - Light blue line on this plot. Should go no higher than 1v and no lower than about 200mV iirc, with a differential of...

    Inferno 182 - too "girly" for a guy?

    It's not a nice colour at all imho, but girly? Nah. Just looks like an ex Heinz Beans promotional vehicle or something.

    172/182 strut top knocking fix

    I machined some out of some scrap brass today, but for some reason had written down 40mm OD, 18.5mm ID and 5mm thick. I'm hoping the extra 2mm won't make a difference. lol.

    Is the 172/182 now a charver bucket?

    lol. Close thread. :cool: Not in any way a troll, but you posting made me think of it straight away. There's an Illiad Blue V6 in the next village that has huge Playboy stickers on it and racing stripes down the middle. Driven by a 40 something. It makes me cringe lol
