Shouldn't do, as most of the required prep will be done. I resprayed 2 of my bumpers and made a damn good job, had no experience at the time.

It's nice to know i contributed to the 172:)

I know a great taxidermist, will make a great teddy for junior;)

Give it a try yourself, you may do a good job.

Relay, passenger footwell.

At the top of east hill about 5:40. Black wheels, pretty sure it was the one i flyered one time in grey friars.

Remove the cold air feed, other than that i think you can get the apapter from ktec and just buy a generic £10 cone.

Check your tyres pressure.

TBH theres no definitive answer mate, i have had my 172 nearly a year without a problem, only general maintenence parts which are expected on a 9 year old car. At the other end of the scale some members on here have had an issue every month. Hit and miss really, so long as it has a good service...

Good old beige.

You can always try heating it with a heat gun and mould it out of the way.

I crashed on paradas, brilliant in the dry, careful driving needed in the wet. I currently use t1r on the fronts and i am very happy with them day to day use(wet and dry).

I just use tesco 99 now, as the 95 gives me starting issues and a lower mpg.

Isn't the ktec a janspeed anyway?

I use i4detailings own budget mitt, works very well.

Blow on the inside of the window, but prepare for light headedness.

At a guess, check ht leads, coil pack and spark plugs. The cold start issue is common, i sorted my problem by running higher octane fuel (99 instead of 95).

Lower dash has to be removed, even then i'm not 100% sure the centre comes out. I just masked up very carefully and covered the seats with a sheet.

Moondust silver is the one i used come to think of it, nice bright silver with a couple of coats of laquer.

I had this problem with my xbox 360...then it rrod'd, dying ps3 perhaps.

I just unplugged mine, doesn't leave an obvious black hole, and as the short Chris said looks much better.

Mini blizzard atm, with thunder and lightning to boot, day after tomorrow style s**t going on here.

Pretty much all of them, easy to refurb, i repainted mine and the centre console bit in ford silver.

For anybody interested this car's in performance french cars atm, had a look in whsmiths today.

Spotted early morning, had std wheels painted white.

Got chance to check this morning, on closer inspection the tensioner is fine, running straight etc, the 'tick' is happening every revolution when ther raised lettering/barcode on the belt roll over the tensioner. SO i guess its just a case of leaving it be until the lettering wears down a bit...

063 is the std code for the battery, cheapeast most likely a local motorfactors. Edit: Darn you Jay and your nimble fingers.

Yeh genuine, got it from NWPerformance I couldn't see anything, guess i'll have too take it off again to get a proper look.

The lower tensioner seems to tick every couple of revolutions, it's brand new as of 2 weeks ago(just about). I've had a look and it's fitted fine and the belt is on correctly, is it doing it just as its bedding in or have a got a situation?

Thats for monaco holmes.
