I'm thinking about changing the Cup's headlights to Xenon units, can i see Cup's with the black inserts and the grey inserts please?
Also, is it plug and play? Pain in the arse to swap the headlamps over?
Cheers!
Right i'm certain this is engine mount related (i've searched).
When under harsh acceleration there is a knocking/metallic sound coming from somewhere up front, when driving around it's all good!
So, which mount is worth checking first? One under the battery? I've read that it can loosen...
Can you even come buy these? I dont think ive ever seen any for sale? I know they're part of the actual steering wheel but thought i'd ask!
The right hand side on in the Cup is fubar'd so need a replacement, anyone advise?
Dan!
So after the missus fell pregnant in July (due in March), it was apparent that we would need a bigger car. Having done the rounds of every affordable performance 5 door car and nit-picking and generally talking myself out of it Julie opted to get rid of her car (Pug 107) for a brand new Pug 208...
Just a shameless plug; :o

Well after 10,000 miles of Y424 XES, i thought i'd fire up a thread with how its been living with a high mileage Phase 1 172, bought off a lad in Creiff (Fife) for £800 after i had seen it advertised on Gumtree with 116k on the clock, a deal was done.
All in, its been a reativley stress free...
You have an unlimited budget, one car shape/chassis, whats your ultimate 'Q' car?
You can have one engine and one car.
Mines is a shitey old Mk1 Golf with a 5 cylinder TT-RS engine.
Shoot.
...And im still waiting for it to connect to o2.
The girl said it can take 24 hours on the new sim (same number) I still have the old sim in my iPhone 4...?
Is this having any effect on the 5 gaining my number/details etc? Also, is there any easy way to have all my contacts moved to the new...
I'm having the belts done on my Exclusive Phase 1 172 on the 21st.
All the idlers and tensioners, both belts and water pump will be changed. Anything else untoward on inspection duly dealt with accordingly.
What are people's take on the dephaser? I've read some people don't bother and have...
Right i know roughly where this is located (near the passenger side drive shaft?)
What is the easiest way to get into it to inspect/clean it? Wheel off? Arch liner out?
Any pictures you might have to help would be good, i want to know what im doing rather than wasting time pulling things off...
A white 197 with cup spoiler parked in a drive A10 NW reg maybe??
An inferno 182 with Cup packs, and black wheels, seen you parked in the centre then passed us at Markie Mark's pub?
Also a Trophy parked in the centre aswell, only the inferno had a CS sticker!
Hi guys, my 172 seems to idle a little on the low side of late, (around 750rpm??) it seems to want to cut out and has done once on me but I cannot be sure wether that was me stalling it or what lol :o
I haven't had the throttle body apart as yet, simple fix or what do we think???
regards, Danny!!
The Clio 4RS that is? I know its a bit premature etc but we all know what to expect! So who are all looking to venture into Clio RS Mk4 territory?
Personally this could not have been better news for me, the missus is due on the 6th of March and ill need a five door with a boot, in all honesty i...
Replaced the coolant temp sensor (right hand side on block) and the needle is still rising and falling?
There doesnt appear to be any actual issue but it still makes me worry?
its a Phase 1 172 btw.
cheers
