arb-just a metal bar and will last for the cars lifetime. wishbones-the bushes can wear,become supple and perish/split.have a look at the bushes before you buy them.the balljoint (can be replaced separatly) can wear but you could feel for the play before you buy the wishbone. driveshafts-the...

ive got the ik and silicone hose. sounds good and seems to have made a little difference. think you only get the high idle on normal 172s not the cups.

the main differences between the 80bhp and the 100bhp is fuel injection pressures,boost pressures and the ecu mapping will be slightly different. having a chip will possibly bring the bhp up to the 100bhp so swapping bits of the 100bhp model wont gain you anything above what the chip has already...

part to be painted=yes,means this is a part that reqs painting. the plastic finish is slightly different due to it will be painted.

it uses the speedo cable sensor to pick up the idle just as your about to stop to prevent the engine stalling. eg-if you were on the brakes at the time etc then there is the chance the engine could stall.

take the engine out! i know pas pipes are sometimes a right pain to change but ive never had to take an engine out.

you have to unbolt the wiper arm from the pivot,adjust the position and rebolt it on.

didnt used to be compulsary. might have changed since though. check with a local mot place to be sure.

but normally you would notice a loss in your brakes as well. what about the idle valve pipe? is that split or adrift?

im going on sunday.

a certain amount of uneven idle is normal. if the idle is excessivly uneven/lumpy then the main solutions are software updates or spark plugs.

the alarms are a bit slow. you have to give them a few secs to disarm after pressing your plip before you open the door otherwise it triggers.

yes straight swap. just get all the valver parts and bolt them on.

what have you got,just the metal grill part or the complete bonnet buldge as well?

yes had that a few times where the heatsheilds missing and caused the outer cable casing to melt around the centre cable causing them to seize or snap.

where did they get £192 for a new seal from. the frame seal we use for new sunroof frames is about £35 and could be used on the older frames.

dont know then just going on what he said.

is your exhaust manifold heat sheild in place? bonnet cables come with the release lever attached.

it is there to direct air through the rad but if your engine temps appear ok then just keep an eye on it. if you notice the temp getting abnormally high or erractic etc then put it back on.

you can get inside the ecu by removing the four gold 20 torx screws. this way you can look at the chipboard.

the obd memory has logged an emission fault now and will store it until it is erased or the fault goes but it wont as there is no cat anymore. you need to get the fault erased by a renault dealer and then leave the second sensor disconnected.

you remove a torx 20 screw,turn the key to the first line mark on the barrel face,push a metal tab in that pokes through a hole in the column to hold the barrel in place and then just slide the barrel out of the column. could you pm me your reg number phil so i can get the vehicle details from it.

have a look at all the air pipes off the manifold. maybe one has split or come off.

look at that dashboard though,what was he thinking about?

yes your right that blue is dead nice.

probably cheapest/best and about that drop would be the ebiach springs.

agree its no problem etc but the only complaints we get of this are on the 172 which seems strange. most customers wont accept thats its nothing to worry about and to be honest why should they because sometimes they come off with a bit of a bang even after just one night in the wet. if they...

the turbo makes more of a whineing noise if the bearings go and if they were that bad the turbo would collaspe anyway and youd know about that. i would defo take it back as its probably something theyve left loose.

you wont believe how many customers break that dipstick.

get the correction bolts from k-tec and any garage with a 4 wheel alligner can adjust the camber.
