weewebbo is that a 172 gear knob i spy? if so where'd you manage to get it from and was it easy to fit?
will get some pics of mine up later when i get a chance as all my other pics show it unlowered :p
yeah i think its probably the clutch. i was lloking at k-tecs group N uprated clutch, anyone have any opinions on it? is it worth it or just get a standard renault one on?

although my gears dont crunch, the only one that does is reverse...
ooo thats interesting i havnt checked the level cos iirc you have to take the plug out and fill it up dont you? so would you say the gear selector is ok and possibly get the clutch done? do you think thats the problem?
cheers mate
does anybody know if its possible to change the mk2 ph1 boot lock and exterior handle for the newer mk2 ph2 one?
i think it may be bigger on the mk2 ph2 :S
no clunk as such, its mainly 2nd gear thats difficult to select but all the gears have a slight difficulty sometimes when putting it in gear. the clutch isnt slipping either. does seem pretty high on the bite though. i do also know that where the gear selector goes into the bottom of the box the...
giles, how easy was your engine cover to fit? i assumed i'd need the little upstands on the plenum to make the cover clip onto mine and as my plenum doesnt have the upstands i havnt bothered getting the cover. did yours have the little upstands of plastic for the cover to clip onto?

am i right in thinkin the clutch on the mk2 ph1 is non adjustable on the bite etc??
i have a problem with selecting gears occasionally at the moment and have been told by a garage that it might be the clutch on its way out. any ideas anyone.
it kinda doesnt let me put the actual gearstick in...
ok guys just want a couple of opinions really, i've got a monaco blue 1.6 mk2 ph1 and im thinkin of putting a set of the 5 spoke 172 alloys on my car and possibly getting them powder coated white?
what do you guys think and does anyone have any pics of any white 172 alloys on any clios...
yeah that was brought in as an update for those of us that bought them at launch we had to wait ages for them to sort the download issue out. used to start downloading and go off and watch tv lol.
also you can boot to dashboard or start the game when boot up that choice was never there at the...

bear with me guys i know its long :p
Ok basically just bought a car from a dealer with a very basic warranty, basic meaning its only covering the gearbox and engine.
i have had a local mechanic look at it as it doesnt go into mainly 2nd gear properly, he thinks it may be the clutch going and...
