Afternoon. I inherited this problem when i bought the car. originally it was only in 2nd and underload, you'd hear a loud banging coming from the centre console. Now its happening in 1st, 2nd and third. Had a look underneath and it would appear that the previous owner has installed new dog...

I've visited this garage initially on my own looking for an M3. And then again visiting with pals (against my advice), each time we've practically ran out of the place as quickly as possible, laughing all the way back home. Stock is 90% awful, service is even worse. I wouldn't waste your...

Turns out that its not the full system at that price :( Clio spares can do a cat for £175 which might be my only option. Unless someone has a PH2 cat??

I am an Ejot and smacked the standard exhaust onto a low level bollard. This has bent the downpipe from the manifold (the cat piece) into a fold. Seen as though it needed replacing anyway, I've been searching the bay and found this...

Would take £135 for it, delivered to anyone on here (cost me £350 less than a year ago!). http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170503286508&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT Cheers

thanks chief.

Super! Do you know what the value is? gonna list them.

As per the pictures... These are brand new, but I was handed them with the car. A google search produces some russian results (unfortunately not the adult variety) and I am assuming one is pulley bolt... God knows, can you help? Took a pic of this next one, front and back:

cheers!

Evening all, have a few bits that need to be advertised shortly (got a few pieces in the for sale section already), but not sure what to list these as? No idea what this is. Wasn't/isn't fitted to my car, but I know its from it: I call this one below, a plenum. My old man says its...

Did you get it sorted Foxy?

coincidence is unlikely, I always think the same as you. Check, double check and tripple check. Its the only way. If its been running fine prior, it is just something you've missed the second time around - If you have faith in your timing! Its either plug, coil, lead, sensor or a hose. She...

Could also be fueling. Try the other pressure regulator sensor (if you have one) and check each sensor to the injectors. You're getting sparks from the plugs too? plenty of things to be double checking tonight!

Its a Ph1 engine in a Ph2 or just a straight ph1 swap? Did you use the old known working coil pack and leads? They are in the correct order?

Afternoon, Recently put a new engine in Len_beach's old bullet. From the old engine (ph2 172) the head, cams, followers etc are fine, but not sure whether to just skip it? Does this sort of stuff sell? In terms of the bottom end, the block is cracked but the crank is fine, do you think...

Thanks for the info mate, superb. I am doing the cambelt whilst the ph1 engine is out too, so that info is even more valuable! Much appreciated. Dog.

Excellent. So all I have to do is replace the Inlet and plenum (with ph2 bits) and we're off? The loom is still in the engine bay, as the ph1 is going in the ph2, so shouldn't need to take the ph1 loom from the scrappers too? Cheers

Quick question. Ph2 172 has a cracked Block. Have sourced a Ph1 172 engine. I know the ph1 has a cable throttle, but I could use the FBW components from the Ph2 to convert it? Is it easy enough? Off to look at it today, so any help ASAP would be grand.

Or even better, does a phase 1, 172 engine a straight install? I think the codes are slightly different? But shouldn't be an issue? Found one pretty close, hoping they are identical?

fck the clio off mate. Its had its day. Get something you can fettle with, with only a woolworths toolkit, like the impreza. None of this french put together lark. remember all the times we've cut our hands working on the 172's... Chav status or not, its your second car. It will pi$$...

The red one with an aftermarket zorst was the wife.

I'd like to go mate, Im just going to have to see what happens tonight and tomorrow. I don't feel so good neither, not entirely sure if its down to lack of sleep (and my sh^t job) or if an ailment is brewing. I'm off to bed in a few mins though, I can hardly keep my fcukin eyes open on here.

I doubt it mate. You can ask him, but he was moaning about it being an arse of a job and if I wanted mine doing on the Megane, to forget it! Charmin. At least the Red wagon is coming along nicely, 50k on her now, crazy. Fcuking Dan, what a tool. Yes Sunday should be fine, just ring me...

Cam shaft end caps are all you'll use lad. They cost as much as that kit from Reno anyway, so bargain. Just had mine done, whilst we were away. took the old boy 3 days. And the belts he took off were as good as the new ones that went on. Reno, french shyte.

If we're getting down to 10 or so Hp, then it'll hardly be noticable any road. Len don't care, with headwork, his would probably be up there too. His map is one of the early prototypes, IIRC, so sure there is more to come.

Jon's is 'special'. Straight up, she's running 265. Paul's tweaked the map a little. - so i believe.... Who'd be dissapointed? Me or Len? Len aint arsed, whats 3bhp between lovers. Me on the other hand, I'm relieved, that I found out i had an issue and that it can be resolved. its not...

And I aint your mate on facebook! accept, so I can send you pictures of my megane... naked...

Yup. Im working next door again for the morn. It'll be a quick drop off though, and i know you're busy.

Fkin gutted about my silver sh*t pot. Ah well, i'll start saving. Booked in tomorrow with your dad, Paul. Might see you?

The new Clio Ripcurl comes with one. see if they've got a demo.
