    172FF mpg

    When was it last serviced, air filter & oil change could be a good start. I use to see 40+mpg easily from that. Bristol to the NEC, 2 up, sat at 80mph and returned 41mpg. Use to run 35psi front and 32psi rears though.

    Megane wheel alignment - Does this look right?

    I've had my car in the dealers 5 times now to try and fix the problem of the car pulling to left badly. After having the tracking/wheel alignment done at Protyre, I took it to Renault they adjusted it again. Then after alot of messing about I had to pay £170 for Renault to check the wheel...

    Xenon headlight too high (Renault Dealers are sh*t!)

    I lowered them down alot on your Clio, as when I got the car the lights were pointing to the ground as the auto-levelling arm had broke. I think someone had tried to raise them up with the auto-levelling broke.

    New flat with BT sockets?!

    I had to do the same when I bought mine £125 for connection, even though there were BT sockets. I thought it was a bit of a joke really, as all they did was fit a new socket and flipped a switch. It was because to previous owners used cable. I only had it so I could have sky, don't even...

    Towbar for cup 172

    Plus the clutch probably wouldn't last long with anything heavy.

    Cost of 172 cambelt and aux belts

    Depends where you are, plenty of good specialists around. £400 would be a good price

    Iceberg silver 172....172 cup ride height

    I think it was something silly like 7mm lower.

    172 slight judder when idling

    No they aren't a smooth engine on tick-over, they all do it.

    Young 172/182 Insurance

    Greenlight would be worth a go, but that doesn't sound to bad.

    172 slight judder when idling

    It's normal mate, they all do it. Some say super unleaded and V-power much it smoother, it might help slightly but I never noticed the difference.

    The STIG

    Wikipedia says Ben Collins is from Bristol, is that right? I thought the sort of drivers that we have are chavs. lol

    First MOT on Tuesday (182 CUP)

    With a weekend of rain on the way, are you going to let it out the garage? :quiet: Does look nice and clean though.

    Air conditioned glove box

    My Megane has a box in the top corner the always blow cold air through, don't think it's actually AC'd unless you have it AC switched on though. Overwise you be driving within the AC working all the time just to cool a glovebox?!?!

    My New Toy (Motorbike)

    Great little bikes. As long as you maintain them well they go on for ever. I think it was something like Greybike400.com which I got alot of information from when I had mine. Mine was abit of a dog, but unfortunately a BMW decided it didn't like the look of it so crashed into me. Wasn't...

    8k for a V6!

    link don't work. Probably a scam at that price though, as even damaged it'll be worth more
  22. Dan 172

    GTArrgh.

    Ouch! The rest of the car looks pretty straight, considering the amount of damage to the front.

    Think of buying Porter Cable?

    Don't really know a great deal about them and where to start really, but i know I need a transformer. Where's the best place to get one from and what pads will I need. I'm not going to be doing loads of cars, just mine and the mrs's car.

    Stopping swirl marks

    Thats a great result there. Mine needs a good going over as it looks grey rather than black/gold at the moment. Just waiting for a good dry day.

    renault parts overpriced

    I bought a back for my 172 last year, I though it was about £115+vat. Anyway it isn't that bad really for a Renaultsport part.

    197 rather than the cup

    Each to there own for sure. I love the the look of the White Cup at the local dealers, with black gloss wheels and RenaultSport splitter, spoiler and sideskirts that I drive past everyday. It's just a shame that they didn't produce the same sort of weight difference like the 172's Still...
