Wanting to change the oil and filter on my 172. I've had a look and seen that I need 5.1 litres of oil. Do I really need the 0.1 litre of oil as everywhere I look sells in 5 or 1 litre bottles. Also is there any type of oil filter I need I had a look on here...

Just got 2 rear seat belts from a dynamic and they are different to the ones on my 172. They fit and work the same except the dont have a connector for the wire that was on the previous belts. When I have the airbag ecu reset, will the sirbag light come on when the new seatbelts are in and the...

When hitting at curb the other week both my front and rear seatbelts tensioned. If I go to the scrap yard and manage to find two new seatbelt pretensioners and hook them up. Will they tension back up as soon as the car starts up? Or will they be alright? Can the rear ones be untensioned or are...

Had abit of an accident the other night. Hit a curb, the airbag light came on and the seat belt tensioned. How do I fix these?

When hoofing it I hear a popping noise. Sounds abit like its back firing but it isn't very loud and seems to be popping a few times, not just one bang. Usually happens around 6k rpm. Does this sound like a cat issue and the car will fail its mot test on emissions next month right?

Usually kicks in at about 5000 rpm. Can happen whilest driving in a straight line or going round a corner. Think it happened the other night when I held the car using the foot brake on a hill whilst it was raining and then straight onto the accelerator pedal and wheel spun up the hill. Anyone...

Went to test drive the 197 yesterday and the salesman told me that they were bringing out an rs clio with less power for a lower insurance group and cheaper road tax. It didn't really click until I was lying in bed last night and thought nar, that can't be right. Is this true or was the guy...

Does anyone know if they still make them? Last week I heard some lads talkin in the street outside my house and I heard them talking about my car. As soon as I got up turned the light on and looked out the window they got in a car and drove off. This morn when settin off for work there was a...

I need a new rear damper as one of them is leaking. So i thought instead of gettin a stock damper i'd get a whole new kit. I saw this from k-tec http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=1385 I'm not wanting to spend too much money and thought these seemed reasonably priced. If anyones got...

Is it a worth doing myself? I was wanting to paint the wheels on my 172 cup anthracite or black. Is there any special paint i would have to use on the wheels, any special sealant to put on afterwards. Im assuming the original paint has to be rubbed down 1st. Any advice would be great. Cheers.

I'll do a better one tomorrow if i can. Just had the striaght through pipe put on by powerflow at tyrespot. Heres the vid

Seen it on eBay for quite a while now. I was tryin to get my mate to buy it. His only reply was "it's got orange wheels"

Unsure which center pipe to go for think i'll just get the 63.5mm one rather that the 70mm, but if anyone knows what the ktr one is could you let me know.

fitted a ktec stealth backbox the other day and the fitting is a little bigger that that of the standard middle box. i thought i'd have the whole center secrion removed and get a stainless steel pipe put in its place so i took the car to a garage which mainly fits exhausts. they said it might be...

Cos the last one sucked. Video

Not that interesting to watch as i just lay my phone on the dash but anyone wanting to know what a viper ik sounds like in car give it a watch. kicks off about 35 secs in. Video

I've just got a used viper induction kit and the air feed was in 2 bits. The instructions were for a model without an air feed and wasn't sure where to stick it so i attached it to the existing one. Is this right, or is it too restrictive?

Any help on this would be mint. If you know any sites with walk through guides, pictures anything. My mot is due and the handbrake aint holding the car as well as it should. Cheers.

I'm sure i saw one on here a while back.

Anyone know where i could get my hands on a pair of these fog lamp replacements? http://www.accessvision.co.jp/lesmainscars/img/report5/renault_conpe/renault_clio_cupe-3.jpg

Would it fit?

Can anyone tell me the power gains of a decat? Anyone done it, if so were they impressed or disappointed?

My Cigarette Lighter appears to be bust and was wondering if theirs a knack to taking them apart. I know its pretty trivia. Ive had a few suggestions such as buying one or test driving a different car and making the switch, but im far too honest. If i was going to buy one i would prefer one...
