One of the first simple jobs, remove the Renaultsport stripes from under the sport badge and update the rear lights Before

I've had this 172 for nearly 7 years now, I'm just about to spend another load of cash on it. So heres my thread to show the changes over the years (some mistakes in choices) and bring it up date; Bought for £6k in 2006 @ 32,000 miles. (traded in my old Alfa GTV for £3 plus £3k cash. Here is...

Looks great, where did you get the intenal matts from?

Cheers Jonny, James, Mick, All advise appreciated. It is both my normal key and spare key, looks like the only option will be new keys from Renault.

Thanks Mick, I think you've given me that advise once already. Thanks again matey. I have taken to Renault recently but had shockingly poor service.

Cheers James, Yes seen the immobiliser dis-arming thing, but I'd prefer to keep the immobiliser working. Do you know whether I get the existing key re-programmed or is it a case of new keys?

I've had this problem for a couple of months, what confusses me is that if I turn the car off and then back on it resets it to normal tick over. So I don't think it can be a mechnical problem. Anyone got any suggests? Appreciated.

Over the last few weeks my key has stopped working to turn off the immobiliser, is this a common fault? Any ideas whether it is the keys or something with the pick up on the car? Any advise appreciated.

Re: Advise please? - Where to put the 3.3ohm resistor to turn off SERV & Airbag light Well I've soldered 3 x 10 Ohms = 3.3 Ohms resistors across the white ribbon cable and the lights have stayed on :-( 'spose it could be the connection under the passenger seat, but I've just soldered that one...

Re: Advise please? - Where to put the 3.3ohm resistor to turn off SERV & Airbag light Cheers Djw John, I had searched through the whole forum of guides but couldn't find it. Appreciated mate.

I'm looking for a bit of advise from anyone who has fitted an aftermarket steering wheel. I've got a Ph1 172 and recently fitted a Sabelt Renaultsport wheel, in doing so I have removed the drivers airbag. The airbag connections are a very thin white ribbon cable, is there any where else...

Thay's great advice raiderman, I'll try that. Works about every 3rd time at the moment and I'm not sure why?

Thanks Edde

Thanks All, A few things to look at there :-)

Thanks Mick, What do you mean by CLIP'n? It does seem to do it with both keys if that is any sort of clue?

Looks great bud, airbags are only for those you crash :-) have you managed to get the airbag light off tho?

What is TPS?

Hi Matt, yes both key fobs work to blip the door ok. Any thoughts?

Having a bit of a problem with starting my Ph1 172, I've changed the battery in both keys and it seems both keys still work/wont work depending on the moment. The imobiliser light flashes and the car turns over but will not start. Anyone know what the logic of the imobiliser is or how it is...

It's running ok again now, only seems to happen after it's been to a car wash?

Luv Turbine wheels

I've got ph1 172, for some reason it is irratically ticking over. Someintes normal and other times it is 1600-2000 rpm. Everything else is ok and it drives fine. Any ideas what this could be?

Love the steering wheel, anyone know what it is and where I can get one?

The Silver Ph1 !72 way mine, the black one with the private plate was a mate who works in the Apple Tree.

Can anyone advise or recommend the best option for air filter on my Ph1. I am thinking I will replace it with a standard unit in the airbox, any thoughts or advise appreciated?

Nice....Keep the standard wheels

Love it...agreed keep the ph1 lights.

I've had exactly the same thing today. I noticed grease on my drivers wheel when giving it a quick clean yesterday, then adjusted my coliover today and found loads of grease on the inside of the wheel and around the hub. I also noticed the CV boot was loose. Bugger! going to take it to my local...

Cheers Robbo, na wasn't me buddy.

hehehe, Well there were 934 Titainium Ph1's registered in the UK. I'd guess at least 300 of them have been scrapped by now......so getting rare.
