alot of 172 have cold start problems but it sounds like the immobiliser to me. Make sure you dont leave the key in when trying to restart the engine - remove wait a bit and then put the key in, wait a sec and turn. The chip reader will stop reading it if you leave the key in. im sure its...
They are all chipped and have random marks on them. Such a shame cos they have the potential to look good. They are a very poor weight and rather fragile like plastic.
anyone know where i can get a chrome gear lever surround that is a quality piece of metal and not plastic.......and not made by richbrook cos all theirs a faulty for a clio 2001+
where does the multi-changer fit to? or carnt you on the dynamique cd player? anyone know what models? I carnt see any pre-outs on there either. Ive got a kenwood 6 disc changer but theres no where for the socket to go in unless i need a different cable...
any ideas?
yes but that just screams standard 1.2 and anyway, the disscussion is about having silver badges unless i sprayed a 16v one silver but it would be cheaper just to do mine.
what black plastic bits are painted on the 172? does it include that bit near the mirrors and the boot button?
wish i could afford a 172. id have to take a lone out to pay for the insurance! its such a pain cos you HAVE TO have a sunroof on any clio except for 172/v6 even if its got aircon. Im not convinced that there is a cure to this problem cos the roof is so flimsey and moves about alot. Might give...
can anyone tell me how the hell you stop the rattling sunroof? (manual - the electric one doesnt do it..wish id paid 4 the extra) Its been in 3 times now and all they do is grease it up. They say that they have modified the handle but i get a creaking noise when its down. Should i ring up...
like what would look better:
172 2.0 16v silver door badges or
1.4 16v as it is or
1.4 16v sprayed silver?
Is spraying these plastic bits classed as a mod?
can anyone add more info? like how do you fit the changer under the seat? anyone got a pic?
What do people think... 2.0 door badges or 1.4 16v as they are or 1.4 16v sprayed silver?
okay, scrap side sills idea :(
looks like the plasic bits will have to be a main dealer job - they are quite...
wow, id love a williams...just nowhere to put it. theres one for £4500 at our local garage in excellent condition. How the hell do you guys get insured on monsters like them?
that carnt be right because they tryed to charge me either £168 for a bonnet and £108 for the bumper on a 1.2 RL p reg when I had it - got an insurance part (copy) for under £70! traded it in for my new one though.
Can anyone tell me if the 172s door gaurd trim/spoiler etc is painted or is it just coloured plastic because I was thinking of spraying my dynamiques black plastic bit but have seem peoples astras where the paints chiped off or peeling off - will it was long? how much will it cost? is it really...
