i carnt see them falling out beacause they wont get past the calliper bolt holes and theyre a bit of a tight fit in the caliper, but where can i get the extra bits from? renault?

just to let you all know from the start I am virgin at working on cars so everything i do is from guides off this website so bare with me. I changed the rear discs on my 2003 172 because one of the bearings was gone, after taking the wheels off i noticed that only 1 of the brake pads off each...

i drive from germany 2 wales all through the year with no problems

hameln bout 40 mins south west of hannover, i think im due new discs anyway so just gona fork out the cash

btw do u really live in wolfsburg??? if so im only 1hr30 away from you. small world lol

havent noticed m8, it gets louder the quicker im going.

does any1 know if i take the disc off is the bearing visible to see if its damaged?

tried it. nothing, my m8 reckons that if the bearing is only just started to make the noise you will only hear it with weight on it while turning

Im getting a droning noise coming from the rear of my 2003 172(i think its the left hand side), i assumed it was a bearing but there is no play in the wheel, can any1 tell me how to check the bearing, is it just a case of taking the disc off and having a look? cheers

Re: Droning noise coming from wheel when moving ffs ive got this coming from the rear left of my car, new discs it is then!!!

it doesnt really matter about my mpg because i get 40L of 100octan for 37euros (perks of being in the army in germany, tax free petrol ha)

28/30 round town and traveling back an fourth from germany to wales 47mpg!!!!!! (driving at 70/75) standerd 03 172

aw ok then, cheers m8, have to start saving then.

just realized ive posted this in the wrong area and have no idea how to change it

I currently have the standard 172 alloys on my iceburg 172, jus wondering has any1 gone as small as 14's and does any1 know if there would be any issues with going that small? cheers

where abouts in germany are you mate?

i do all town driving and get 35-37 when driving sensible, but thats using vpowerracing(100)which you do not get in the uk.

my car looks pretty much axactly the same as this now except i wraped them metioned parts in vinyl wrap, but from a distance they just look dark grey same as urs, just need to fork out some dollar for coilovers now.

The only problem is with me stripping weight off my car is that I have a baby and 1 on the way so it needs to be family/track car. Haha
