I got a 52 plate 172 cup, 54k miles and just changed all mine to koni top adj for £350 due to rear shock dumping all its oil. the scary thing is when i took off the knackered shock it wouldn't go down more than an inch so i had a totally hard shock on one side! (made things interesting in corners!)
isn't that where you are meant to measure? when you look an enginneering diagram you always measure from the center of the hole cos that's where the drill starts from.
Where are you measuring from? the outsides of the bolt?
Are you sure your 1.2 has 58mm spacing? center of bolts, cos all the listings ive looked at are for 52 or 54 for a 1.2.
What cup? 172 or 182?
Cheers dude
Yep, till your rear dampers dump all their oil on the floor!
Personally i would do the entire suspension at the same time. i bought my 172 cup with spax springs on it and the drivers side rear damper has just gone, so i've got to replace the lot now!
Can anyone tell me the difference between 172 ff, 172 Cup and the non RS hubs are? as in distance between mounting holes and distance between tubes and holes?
My 172 cup has 54mm holes and 65mm between tube and holes.
I've heard that 1.2 models has 52mm holes and 182 cup has 60mm, also 182/172...
I have fun in my low powered DIESEL. It can be as much fun as the RS cos it's a 205! Bring on the racing, i'll race you, don't care if i win or not.
Lets face it unless you are born with a silver spoon, we all started with a small engined car and still thought it was fast and drove the ar8e of...
WTF? K-tec recons that "the hubs and hole spacings are different on the 172 and Cup models" which i would agree with in principle. oh dear ive got to get a new susp. system soon and i wanna make sure i get the right one.
I thought the cup had a wider track so if you've got two different hubs...
Right, i've now put the lambda sensor back and the cat back on and the light is still on.................
does that mean the light needs to be reset and how do i do it?????
yeah but the brass thing is on the sensor itself i presume and that usually touches earth ( exhaust), maybe there is chaffing wires where it's loose
It cost me £180 labour for a water pump change!
Help, it still won't go off, i've removed 2nd lambda with it still connected, blanked up hole and the light is still on. Will it go off on a 172? or is that just a 182 thing?
