The ad should be removed from Ebay...as somebody is going to end up buying a poorly repaired shed...

lol...I didnt even spot that...until now...

They're supposed to be black...

Thats what I keep telling the guy, but he seems adamant...lol

I was interested in this 172 until i realised that it didnt have xenons, I have sent the guy numerous messaged querying this, but he keeps stating that the car has got them. What do you guys think? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250189049611&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:GB:1123

could you post up some pics of where this valve is situated, as i want to give it a go.

the standard 172/182 lamps look miles better...

what i wrote makes perfect sense... 1. the guy has been working with clios for 10 years... 2. i am perfectly aware that 172 have not been around for ten years...but cam-belts have...you dumb ass... 3. the belts are good for 70k +...but it is best to follow renaults rules incase of a...

you sarcastic little runt...lol

its the belt which runs your altenator...

i spoke to a renault mechanic (main dealer) ...and he told me that "the original belts are good for 70k...but for peace of mind, one should adhere to the 72k/5 year rule"... he also owns a 182...and has only ever seen 4 vehicles (172/182, sub 40K) with snapped cambelts in the 10 years that he...

you should check your aux belt for cracks...i say this because i looked at a 172 with the 42k on the clock the other day...the aux belt was full of cracks...so i walked away...

its probably a cat D or C...hence the "bargain" price...

used cars have fallen in value 'as of late'...but that car does seem fishy...i would definately get it hpi'd before viewing it...

**be warned**...the 182 does not have a spare tyre...

cool...my ones a very late 52 plate and has just hit 37.5 k... if you dont mind me asking...has the cambelt been changed on your one...?

the v-tec engine on my old cars so was quiet...that i often forgot that it was even on...lol

whats your mileage, if you dont mind me asking?

cheers lads...

mine 26.9...lol

i have just purchased an absolutely mint 172, but i was wondering who else’s car ‘judders ever so slightly’ when the car is idle ling, by the term ‘judder’ i am referring to when one can feel the engine turning over, through the floor of the car/chasis. i am asking this question because i have...

yeah...the cars great... and lol @ the last post...

nope a standard air-box... the noise does sound cool though...:D

i agree...

hi, is it normal for 172 engines to make a slight whooshing noise when the accelerator peddle is pushed...(it sounds like the air-filter is sucking in air)...?

i purchased an 02 172 with 37K...and in excellent condition...the book value according to whatcar is £5,855 i didnt pay anywhere near that...lol

i was asking because i owned a volkwagen polo gti and premature (sub 50k) cambelt failure rates on these vehicle were quite high...so i was wondering if the 172 was similar...

so the failure rates are quite high then...

i have just purchased an 02 reg 172 (38k)...the cambelt + aux belt has not been changed...i was just wondering how urgently i should get this matter rectified...?

i was gonna buy a 172 with the very same noise today...but common sense told me to walk away...even though the seller kept insisting that the noise was the "twin cams"...lol
