Over £2000 for a 360 cambelt change at 'rari! How much for a set of Clio V6 centre caps? Ferrari wanted over £100 for 4. Were cheaper in Tampa Bay.

^ I think he means the turtlewax 'crayon' touch up pen. Rub it on and wipe off excess. If you rub it off properly, it will leave behind the wax in the chip. Won't last long, would be better off using paint.

No trains running?

The try Renault comment was serious. They sell so many different stickers you didn't even know existed. I went in for the two from the grill, and was presented with 11 pages of stickers, from Playstation 2 to 95RON. They didn't have the grill ones though. Useless.

It would only take a different journey, or a trip to the shops though town once in that tank to take it down. I understand you said same driving, but maybe you had a heavier foot, bit of traffic one of those days.

I can remove mine and supply it on some good quality backing tape for £19 delivered.

Go to Renault and buy a new one.

RTFM HTH

No. The belts will need changing on the 5th aniversary of that last change stated, or at 108k, whichever comes soonest.

Loool. I paid 600 FC at 21 with 6 points. Shop around!

Have you got the cat 1 approved certificate in your Renault wallet? If you don't I know I have mine so can check the manufacturer of the system if you like?

Of course he didn't. Wider track remember.

Renault.

Yeah. Need to reset it every now and then otherwise it keeps adding on to previos met G's, leaving a large number you know you could never of hit in that instance. MPG figure is an average figure. Reset it on a blast and you would see say, 28mpg. Then do a 4 hour motorway journey and moan...

Funny thing is, they aren't a world away from being worth £3 now.

Talking of G meter. Don't be a hero and pull over 2G on a corner.

Yeah it does. But bear in mind its an average.

It's not due to Feb, but last time I know the reading was fairly low and I will be taking it to a different garage next time who may not be as lenient/knowledgeable on the issue. Fred?

Yes I know, more threads on this than anything but this may be useful for the records. We are all aware that the 172 Cups are renowned for failing the MOT due to the rear braking efficiency. My question is, what is the borderline reading that is classed as a pass. Should a Cup with no...

Don't be too put off by the toyo haters. Many will just jump on the band wagon as it was once written in 2006. If you just want a generic tyre for road use and don't drive like an idiot, they will more than suffice.

That, with a set of Euro rims with the exhaust bracket carving a tram line, and many here would be brown nosing.

Fair play. I contenplated buying camber gauges when looking at getting alignment. Wish I had! I have 1 degree and its fine. Minimum tyre wear.

Unlikely. Was Sub £27 Last year and the year before in supermarkets. Readily available for anyone to go and get, yet people were still paying 30 odd on ebay for a copy a week later. Until this one came out today, the old ones fetched good money. They aren't the game to go down to a tenner...

Mega Positive camber. What coilovers are they?

I had the same, and replaced the twisted dog bone gearbox mount expecting it to sort it, it didn't I also had a knocking on turning, at all speeds. Since I have fitted coilovers, both noises have gone. I put it down to top mounts!

Did you find out if its a Cup?

Nice car. Love these. Suprisingly reasonable to insure. Wanted to buy one of these a couple of years ago when the prices were right. They have shot right up in the last year or so that I have noticed. I love the Burgandy ones, not sure on what the colour is called, Magenta?

Thing I want to know is, is it a pass if there is NO effort at all on the rear? Surely a low effort, past a certain limit is where the rule comes in to place, or will the Cup actually pass with a complete lack of rear braking?

Had a search and found this for you A 172 Cup's VIN number will start like - vf1cb1ndf A normal 172 VIN number will be like - vf1cb1n0f
