Or "Hoe Hub" as Im now calling it! :clown: I got it last wednesday, went for the Option 3 with all the bells, seemed fine at first. It was very easy to set up and secure out of the box which was good. I have 3 wireless PC's on it, 2 hard wired and a wireless 360 which all worked fine. The...

Yay something else broke on my clio! Any more new parts and I'll need an 07 plate lol!!! :clown: I was gracefully using my "parking" break to slide into a space in an empty ASDA car park (yes I know it was silly, time to start acting my age :o ). Next thing was a bang and the handbreak lost...

Anyone else running it? Ive been using it since the final release was launched and it looks stunning, media centre rocks and hooks up with TV and xbox 360 very well. New office is also cool. But its not without issues... even browsing can be difficult, it crashes in good old windows blue...

Does anyone know the rough costs and labour for a complete engine rebuild on a ph-quick? Theres nothing wrong with the engine that I know of, sounds a bit lumpy idling, I would like a good inspection for any wear or potential problems and renew everything like gaskets, seals, belts yadda yadda...

Saw a blue 172 Cup in the BP garage in Treethomas last night, parked next to my Ph-Quickness

Ive had a tit full of this car now. I drove to the petrol station, juiced up, tried to start the car and it cut out first time, time and radio reset. Then it started after a few turn overs and I drove home and decided to stop at the shop. Got back into the car and it wont start. The dash lights...

Does anyone know "exactly" which turbo's k-tec and BBT are using in their kits for the 172? I think its a T28 but which one, there are a few variations :S K-tec's one looks almost the same as a SAAB 9000 turbo lol Im thinking most of the stuff in this kit could be sourced for much less...

As it says how well does fibreglass bond to the plastic of the bumpers? Would it eventually crack or anything? Is there any special prep work needed before applying it? Cheers

Aint posted anything for a while so since the sun was shining I thought I would document my progress, believe it or not I couldn't be bugged to clean it but it still looks shwing imo. New Toyo's ;) Colour coded handles :cool: DVD :rasp:

I was driving to work and my speedo started to go nuts, dropping to 0 then shooting back up to what ever speed I was doing. 0-60 in less than a second!!! Then it died all together :dead: Then it came back!!!! Then it died again.... It just sits on 0 most of the time but occasionally kicks into...

Can anyone give me a little advice here? Im gonna order a set of sparco evo seats >clicky< I know they're side mount but Im a bit confused with the sub frames. Do I need >these< ones? What about a slide adjuster? I assume I need to buy those if I want to move the seat? Help! lol

Ive noticed a small amount of oil at the front of my engine. Ive kept and eye on it and now today it seems really bad. At first there was only enough oil to leave a dark patch but now I can clearly see oil. Does anyone know what these two puppies are? On the left and above the oil filter and...

Man eBay rocks, in the last few days Ive managed to snagg the following! genuine renault clear side repeaters with bulbs and holders £10 new exterior handles to colour code for £8 new style mk2 rear lenses, bulb holders and bulbs for £21 Chuffed!

Woke up to this so I thought I would take a few pics before the street was invaded by kids. Had to wash it all off so I didn't get the local chav spawn climbing over the car, scraping all the snow off and scratching my paint. :dapprove: Looks cheeky under that snow heh The missus's...

Does anyone know the paint code for the standard mk1 alloy wheels? Can you buy it premixed or do you need to have it made up?

Guys are these the same of a mk2 1.2 and a mk2 172? Just the black plastic ones not colour coded or anything

Guys wheres the best place to take a 12v feed from inside the clio? I would usually use the fag lighter but thats not "always on". Cheers in advance :D

Nuff said... :approve:

When I found out how small the original air feeds were on my 172 I couldn't believe my eyes. I took em off and it sounded like a k&n with the standard filter lol. So I splashed on some toys to make a little improvement until I can make my mind up on an IK :cool: ITG filter and a 70mm Green cold...

Lets say I bought a crashed mk2 172 and had it sat along side my mk1 172 will it be possible to transplant the whole black interior and replace my grey-blue?? Will all the connections on the dials, switches etc be the same?

I passed you in the fast lane then you pulled out and started to chase but then I had to turn off.... awww

In theory would it be possible to swap the 6 speed box from a mk3 F4R onto a mk2? What else would need to be done? Remap? Would there be any benefits to doing this? Or would it stop you getting 60 in 2nd? i.e splitting the power over more gears?

My ISCV arrived today at last, and got promptly fitted... Doesn't make a blind bit of difference..... I start the car, it idles at 1100 - 1200rpm If I then rev the engine it revs then drops to 1500rpm then bounces between there an 2000rpm. Once the engines warm the problem gets worse. If...

Guys wheres the engine number located on the mk1 172? I dont have my car with me and I need to order a new ISCV but renault cant find the exact part without it. And god forbid they should keep a even simple part in stock! :mad:

Does anyone know the part numbers for the all silver 2.0 badges off the 172 Exclusive? They're the same as the mk1 172 badges but a little more bling ;) You can just about make em out in this pic..

(Mk1 172 with throttle cable) I took the top of my inlet manifold off to do some work on it and now that Ive put it back on I have problems. As soon as I start the engine the revs shoot upto 2000rpm then drop to 1500rpm then if its cold it drops to about 1100rpm. Then if I tap the...
