I put a similar thread up the other day. Mine does the same but what I wanted to know is how the switching is done via the rubber cylinder. On mine you press for front and front squirts, press for rear and front squirts. The pump is one common pump for both outlets (with the 2 outlets on the...

Certainly doesn't look new does it. just out of interest.. What causes the aux belts on these to snap? Is it purely a degradation of the belt or is the tensioner to blame? It amazes me on a std engine that the cambelt can be taken out by a broken aux belt! You'd think it'd be well protected...

I'm deffinately going to get a full aux belt kit from Renault. I actually started a thread on here yesterday about the price of the kits. I saw the OE Renault kit on ebay for £72 and assumed it was cheap.. I assumed it was cheap as I'd seen an skf kit for £212 at euro car parts. Turns out they...

Can you explain how it switches still? I'm pretty sure that's not the case though, all looked untouched. Maybe my first post could have been clearer.. When you press for the front, the front sprays, when you press for the rear.. The front sprays again.

It does look quite a way off... But, these cars (as mentioned above) have plastic wings and look at any lighter colour 172/182 in pics and you'll see what appears to be a shade difference. A lot of it is because of the fit of the wings too, the edge against the door is not right from the...

Blimey. Assumed they'd be a fortune going by the SKF prices on euro car parts and ebay. How strange.

What's the deal with these chaps? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Renault-Clio-172-182-Aux-Fan-Belt-Tensioner-Pulley-/190655682776?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Model%3AClio%7CCars+Type%3A2.0+16V+Sport&hash=item2c63f6d8d8 showing Renault boxes in the pic. the list price for the skf kit...

If it stands you at £50 then how can you be having second thoughts as to whether you've done the right thing? You could list it on ebay with the faults fully listed and probably get circa £1000 for it. You should be jumping for joy rather than having doubts... The clutch might just feel heavy...

lol Rather begs the question, why did you buy it?

One of the faults on a 172 I've recently purchased is the rear washer not working. When you press the rear washer on the stalk the front washers work instead. Now, obviously first thing I did was a quick google and found the pumps can be a problem. Bought a new pump from a motor factors (yes...

ok, thanks. Did you use a press?, or do they go in/out with a correct size socket and a hammer?.

Where is the actual speedo cable sensor then?. I thought the cable just went from box to clocks?, what is the sensor?, the cable is a mechanical drive so where does this sensor thing come in?.

Anyone confirm which for the front on a 1992 16v? smokey, which model is yours?, looks like a newer car in your avatar.

Thanks for the info mate, Ill give the MAP ;) sensor a clean. How/where do I check the speedo sender?, I take it theyre not cable driven then?. My mrs has gone out, so cant look til she gets back. [Edited by jameswrx on 16 May 2004 at 6:09pm]

as above, need a front wheel bearing for a 1992 clio 16v, anyone know which one I need, seen them on ebay and 2 different ones are available Im thinking its probably this one, as its bigger (and dearer, allways the way lol) size 37x72x37 mm...

Nope, no power boost valve. I was also thinking it might be becasue of the induction kit?, the breather and the pipe from the idle valve are just pushed into the rubber side of the k&N, maybe the setup on the std air box is better for these pipes?.

Thanks for the reply. I think I can illiminate the speedo cable one because it will mess about when stationary from start up sometimes(?) By potentiometer do you mean the throttle position sensor?, also wheres the manifold absolute pressure sensor located then?, suppose I can find it if it...

First off hello all! (new to this forum) My girlfriend got a clio 16v yesterday and there are a couple of annoying probs, one being the idle. Car is fitted with Piper cams, K&N induction and scorpion exhaust.. Basically the idle is very up and down, plus sometimes it will fall low enough to...

Picked up a 16v for my girlfriend yesterday. Also having wheel bearing (I think) related probs.. Getting a grumbly whirring sound from the front which appears over 30mph, clutch up or down, in or out of gear makes no difference, so pretty certain its a bearing. Also it stops completely when...
