Fitted a fabia splitter, so much tidier now.
Also changed the spark plugs with the help off a chap off here! Hasn't cured my problem, ignition coils is probably the next shout - see what the fault codes throw up
Hi buddy, if you wouldn't mind giving a second opinion that'd be great - couple of beers in it for you. When would be convenient to pop by and see you? Cheers for the heads up on euro car parts too
Had a quick look using the search feature, I believe I need new spark plugs and ignition cool pack.
Ive got a 2002 1.2 16v. Basically my car is juddering when accelerating, once over 2k revs it appears to disappear.
Am i right in thinking its new spark plugs I need? Also if someone could...
Sport interiors really finish off the I terror of a no -sport, look through the last 2 pages on my thread and you'll see how a half leather interior looks :-) I love your car colour btw...
Whenever I release my brake pedal or release my handbrake, there's a squeaking noise which comes from the rear of my car. If the handbrake is on and I feather the brake pedal, there is no squeak - however when I release the handbrake there is the squeak again and when I press my brake pedal!
So...
Sorry to revive an old thread, my brake pedal makes a squeak noise when I release it, when you say oil - do you mean lubricate? And if so, which parts should I lube.
Any help would be great, thank you.
She's getting there mate. IMO is stay away from painting callipers and drums any colour apart from black :) and don't get a massive fart cannon exhaust - will just look&sound gash. I've got a scorpion lemans twin exhaust and straight through pipe. Looks beautiful and gives a nice throaty growl
I smoked the rear lights myself, because all the ones you get off eBay are literally black and look gash! So I done a light smoke myself buddy.
In all fairness I loved the tints and smoked lights, but now I want to rove the tints and smoked rear lights lol.
172's don't come in Gris boreal buddy, I have the same colour so you would have to get a 172 kit resprayed. Making a 172 rep is expensive when you consider respraying, the front bumper, rear bumper, wings, side skirt and spoiler will set you back around £250 for the parts themselves.
Maybe...
Remove that gash rear light tint, full respray is alot of money to waste on a 1.2 pal IMO. Deffo alloys, you'll be want wheel spacers too if your going down the rep route
Here's a picture of mine as she stands.
172 projector headlights,
172 anthracite alloys,
Full 172 renault sport half leather interior & door cards & sport handles,
Lowered 40mm on spaxx springs,
Scorpion lemans twin exhaust and straight through centre section,
Colour coded spoiler, door handles...
Had trouble with my 5 after about 2 months of owning it. iTunes wouldn't recognise my device, neither would my car headunit or my Bose speaker dock. I tried various different cables and docks etc with no luck :-( it would sometimes show the charging symbol but actually continue to lose power...
