Should i just leave it then? car starts fine just feels down on power slightly. just trying to eliminate possibilities. The coilpack is brand new, its the connecter that plugs into the circled plug ^ that has lost on of the metal clips. which i thought would cause it to lose a spark.

Recently ive been having a few problems with my 172 cup going into limp mode on high revs seems to stutter as if its misfiring. When we changed the plugs and the coil pack today i noticed that one of the metal sliders isnt in the connector to the coil pack ( not the pin in the coil pack itself)...

Orite ive heard the matched inlets give a few bhp with a decent remap. Mine was RR'd at 174 BHP at the fly and its totally standard. Got the graph somewhere if you need to compare.

Change Lambda sensors Disconnect battery for 15 mins to let the ecu reset and check to see if its any better as something is obviously wrong as most 1*2's seem to get high 30's low 40's MPG wise while driving like you ve not robbed the bank. Good service could also sort the car out if its been a...

^ Ha thats brutal. Lucky to have escaped with that one under "Warrenty" Checking oil levels with dipstick = 1minute Vs engine rebuild = £500 il stick to simple peace of mind over a digital readout!

Bit daft unless you have another CAT for MOT purposes as their like £200+ from most places. Just wait and get a proper one made up Most custom exhaust fabricators will do them for around the £60 - 70 mark

If the cage isnt secured first you ll need to disconnect the HU and place this in bending the tabs to stop it moving. Hope this helps

Try tying a length of string to the stereo loom behing the iso connector, then feed the wire through on of the cavities behind the unit and out into the passenger footwell. As your pushing the unit into place pull the new piece of string or wire down. this will move the wiring behind the unit to...

Not had much experience with the focals tbh. Depends what your after price ect... if low budget go for the spl dynamics or JBL 507c two very good componant sets that will be far better than standard. If your on a decent budget look into the focals or some Rainbow componants. Focus on RMS wattage...

So many guides on the internet mate give yourself a full day for amp installation and setup to speakers and you ll be fine. you ll learn fast when you get going. wirings my most hated job but when you get the speakers on tidied and working its rewarding. :rasp:

i have the deici 130's very nice speaker but can seem a little harsh sounding at times . Only problems you'll have are; 1 getting the renault unit out unless you have the right keys, but these can be bought from halfords 2 getting the new pioneer to click into the single din slot due to the...

Alot of people run sealed as its easiest to build, change. I run twin 12" JL subs through one large sealed box in the clio and its more than adequate with 500wRMS. Depends what your after. ie space, SQ, loudness. Read the guide in the 2nd post and decide its all down to personal choice. With the...

just read through most of this thread saw bits and bobs a year ago. Truely stunning build!! Hope its still going strong engine looks epic!

My engine is quite 'tappy' in the cold i'm up at 5 most mornings and its all i can hear when i start the engine. I've just bought the car and i've heard the hydraulic lifters are affected by the dephaser pulley. Might be worth looking into having this changed as apparently it can clear up loud...

Stay on the west coast near largs. Im abit worried about binning it cant get much traction with the roads being the way they are. Cheers for the welcome lads. few plans lined up mostly audio and a few tweaks very happy with the car bar its dodgy idle and french rattles :dapprove: you guys get...

Hi to all just picked up a mondial blue 172 Cup. Heard from the seller the car has been in the owners club before. Used to be on A12 CUP reg, would be happy if anyones made a progress thread. Very happy with the car, seems very capable in all areas. Sure the past owner was Big Iain seems to be...
