Yeh probably not a great deal of money for a new one and they're easy to change so i'd change it and see what happens.

Assuming the engines actually making correct oil pressure it'll probably just be a duff oil pressure switch.

Re: Mk1 F4R/172'd Track Car Project Punt that in my direction if you would mind pwease? :)

Its luck of the draw and off the top of my head most later 172s and most 182s will have them. My 53 plate did.

It'll do it 3 times if you leave it a little while between turning the ignition off and locking the car, 4 beeps is the ignition still live warning but it still turns the sensors off anyway.

Probably a parallel import so no alarm. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It's ignition on and off twice not three times. Should beep 3 times to signify the interior sensors are off. Might do it 4 times but they'll still be off. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Flashing engine warning light is usually down to an emissions warning wouldnt worry about it too much unless it keeps doing it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

As they're 5 door only and the horrible cream lower dash i'd rather get a dynamique with the options on all day long. Get a ph3 1.6 and it's a better car all day long. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The airbag service light being on won't effect the ecu something else is causing it to overfuel. If it was in limp mode then it won't rev over 3k for a start and will be flat as a pancake. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Same afaik Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Can't disagree with you more on that one tbh, put it in numerous JB1, JB3 and JC5 boxes as well as the ND0 box in my 225 have never had an experience like that. Infact the megane box is nicer to use on the castrol than it was on the oe stuff.

Hairy muff, thats what I meant by being different. Didn't know about the flat face rather than the slot though but having never seen the crank from one that'd explain that. Renault manuals i've read/seen/used don't say to slack the cam pulleys off like the F4R though? Only to use the 799-01 tool...

Very true completely agree with that, and its also different when its not yours. When you've got your own interest at heart it'll be done 100% (or mine are/were) when its a just a job its not quite as clearcut. imo anyway.

Whats different then? The cam locking bar is the same? The procedure is the same afaik? The only difference is in the length of the crank locking pin?

Not totally specific, same ones for the F4P, K4M and K4J. Only difference being the crank pin is slightly different for the K4 series. Either way they are 100% necessary, doesn't necessarily need to be a specialist in my eyes anyone competant mechanic with the tools should be able to do it...

Stick some proper correct grade oil in it before getting too worried, they seem to like the EPX which is good as it isn't mega bucks.

So does that one?

If you've got some ncb you'll be fine, I payed 1600 at 19 for my 172. If you're ncb-less i'd forget it.

Unless it was running mega mega power then he's doing something seriously wrong to pop a 4G63. Arse driver I could get over, C20 :dead:.
