A friend of mine who owns a '53 plate black Clio 172 has no interior heaters. They used to stop and start (when turned on) and now they don't work at all. He has taken the car to Renault and they said that it's a "common problem" and that it's a dash out job as the motor has to be replaced and...

How many different types are there? I'm wanting one for my silver 172. I don't really want to pay silly amounts of money for a carbon one. Just a nice black one will do :)

A while ago, a small stone hit the top of my windscreen and made a very small chip. This morning, I was driving to a car meet and a stone was flicked from the road onto my windscreen by a lorry. The result was a little worse than before :( It's made a nice deep'ish crack and is a little...

My mate has a problem with his drivers side headlight. He bought some uprated sidelight bulbs and when fitting them, he removed the rubber cap on the back of the unit. Because he had a bit of trouble trying to fit his hand behind the back of the unit, he was unable to change the bulbs and...

My backlight has gone so in the daylight, I can "just" make out what's showing. In the dark, I have absolutely no chance. Has anybody else's gone? If so, how did you go about changing it?

In the very near future, I'm going to be having my wheels refurbished and sprayed (anthracite). This will take a few days and in that time, I will not be taking time off work so I will be using the car. Therefore, what (cheap) wheels/steelies can I use on a temporary basis? I'm under the...

My mate has just bought some upgraded (Xenon) main/full beam headlight bulbs. He had a few issues with the nearside ones but it was a complete different kettle of fish when he went to change the offside ones. Now... is there an easy or more simple way of changing the bulbs bearing in mind the...

My wheels will be going anthracite (like the Trophy's) and so I'm therefore after a set of smoked/black side repeaters and I was looking on Ebay and wasn't sure what the differences are (if any) between the models. The ones on Ebay say they fit... "RENAULT Clio 1 (-98), Clio 2 (98-00)"...

I saw you this evening approx. 7pm on Park Street (Camberley, Surrey). Had the white stripes over the passenger side, etc... Looking very tidy indeed :) I was behind you for a little while in the silver 172.

Can anybody tell me where I can find a paint code for the colour of the anthracite Trophy wheels. I'd like mine this colour and the wheel refubrbers would like this information. Thanks :)

This is something I noticed lastnight. I had mine and my mates 172's next to eachother. I said to him... oh my god, your key locks have been smoothed off. He then had a look at the passengers side but that key lock was still there so the drivers one is not there but the passenger one is. His...

I cleaned my car yesterday but my mate (Richard) cleaned his this evening so we thought we'd take a few pics of the two 172's :) Richard used to have an S2 blue 106 Rallye and I of course used to have a black Mk2 Saxo VTS. You can find the rest here... Mine and Richard's Clio 172's :)

I "think" I have a problem with the petrol warning light/sensor on my 172. Surely the petrol light should be on when it has basically nothing in it (as per the gauge)?

If I want to have the Renault badge on the front and badges on the rear sprayed, how do I go about removing them? I'm assuming the badge on the front will be a little bit of a lenghty process? The ones on the rear... are they stuck on. If so, do they also have guide pins behind?

I don't know where else to put this so I might as well try here. My O/S foglight has some condensation in it. How do I go about sorting it? I presume I'd need to remove it and sort it that way. If so, how do I go about removing it?

Hi all, I picked up my Ph2 Clio 172 on Wednesday evening. On Friday evening, I took my mate out in the car and had to fill up at a petrol station. While I was filling up, he thought he'd have a little play with some of the controls, one of which being the headlights. When I got back into...

Well as some of you know, I picked the Clio up from High Wycombe on Wednesday for £5,500. It's a 2001/51 model with the Cup Turini wheels. It only has 30k miles and has a full service history. The car is in superb condition inside and out and I am very happy with it This is the only chance...

Hi all, Lastnight, I picked up a silver Clio 172 :) However, I have a few questions... It's a 2001 (51 plate) model and the previous owner put the Clio Cup wheels on it. The car has air conditioning and ABS. It does not have cruise control and you cannot turn the traction control on...

I've already posted this thread... http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?p=2913813 This car is for sale on Piston Heads (obviously!!!) It's up for £4k, which is a good price but as you can see from the pic, it needs some (minor) bodywork repairs. Now how much would that set me...

Hi there, I'm not really a new member but I am a new(ish) poster. I might be around here a bit more than I already have been now as I'm looking into purchasing a Clio Sport (172). I currently have a Mk2 Saxo VTS... Spec's and pics can be found here...

Do you have any idea how much I'd be looking at for a set of '02 standard rear lights for a Clio 172?

Hi, I've come across a reasonably priced 172 for sale. The only problem is that it has some what looks like to be minor cosmetic damage... How would that crack on the grill and chip on the bonnet be rectified? Would a new grill be required? If so, how much would I be looking at...

Hi all, A mate of mine has a 2001 1.2 16v Clio. He has asked me to look at some prices for a V6 bodykit. He has looked at some prices on the internet and one of those places being Ebay. He saw a complete kit for around £1k but because it's Ebay, etc... he's a little "worried" as to what he'll...
