Just thought id make you all aware that there is an ecu upgrade now available for the clio 197s to improve the cold running/hesitation of the engine from cold. It just involves re-programming the ecu. All dealers should be aware of it.
I found out from the Renaultsport forum. Thought id...
Was in the Milestone having a crap steak and spotted a blue lowered mk2 clio with sticker pull into carpark. May have been Matt Trev???
Also saw an identical car to mine Red 172mk1 go round the roundabout. I was concerned as never seen another before and thought mine had been nicked!!
Fitted the better goodrich lines this morning and bled my brakes. Got to the last one and the thread on the union is buggered. Ive tried everything to get it to screw into the new brake line but it wont go in. It wont go back into the old line either. I take it the brake pipes on the car are...

This question is for my mate who i work with, he doesnt use t-internet much. His 172 sounds really rough, sounds like when a exhaust is buggered, sounds really tinny and rattly. It idles fine and doesnt do it when the exhaust and engine are really warm (after 30 mins of driving)

I would look on dialogies by my mate is borrowing my laptop.
When its cold my interior rattles and squeaks a lot more, why is this? What is the scientific reason behind it? We are talking plastic on plastic here.
Im replacing the 2 air feeds to my 172mk1 airbox, whats the best pipe size to get? Someone posted a pic a while ago of custom air feeds going to the box that were bigger, does anyone know who it was?
Cheers in advance.
Spotted a Blue and silver 172 mk1 parked next to each other today at mallory, I would have parked with you if there was room, the silver one also followed me home for a bit?? Anyone??
Can someone please make a decent quiet exhaust for the 172 as a direct replacement for the shitty over priced standard pig iron Renault one.

Has to be stainless steel
Has to be completly hidden
Has to bolt on from cat back using the existing mounts...
