Well your 172 only has one coil pack, so easy enough to check.

Yeh, i was painting the arches the flicked off the brush to clean it and splattered it on my front end lol. I just worked the polish by hand and it came off in no time.

Brown tops are better than both i have found, as they are the revised versions renault currently sell. I had the same prob as the op, used to buy £10 grey tops from ebay but they would last 2 months tops, got fed up and went to renault and it was fine ever since.

As said, try a clay bar 1st, then if not get a polish , i used megs #80 to get off some hammerite specs on silver paint. If thats no good try a more aggressive polish/compoud.

Think it's worth mentioning, when you take off the runners try not to let them slide out of place, as sometimes they will just lock up completely.

The cupra front end works well, std engine or something bigger?

About £60 from the dealers.

Thought i'd been spotted then, but then read the ph2 bit:(

You will need to take the plenum off the top, but usually its the lower part of the lower inlet thats the worst part.

Can of spray paint explode in the car maybe;)

Ebay for me, though they have not been so common lately.

Most cars do it, the 197's do it alot from what i hear, it just down to moisture on the brake surface causing the two surfaces to bind.

Rear brakes binding is all, nothing to worry about.

Speccys old car on here.

Yeh tbh the full sevice history isn't a big deal, so long as its been looked after with regular oil changes and has reciepts for parts etc is more what i'd look for.

Is there a system to locate a car these days. I want to find my old clio which i know is currently insured.

Chris Knott iirc

The key is linked to the uch for the immobiliser, it may turn out an expensive mistake :(

What did you use to grind the manifold down?

Works on the 182 cat but not so on the 172 cat.
