Umm No wonder the 172 need alot of work done to take ot near 200bhp If 172's are kicking out low 160's I think its pretty poor on renault's part.

Please people dont think the engine is warm and at a safe temp because the water gauge is half way, Just because the water gauge is at working temp does not mean the oil is, The oil could only be warm and not able to do the job its suposse to. I.m really supprised that theres not a oil temp...

Sunday i went to my car to get something out shut the door and stood there talking to my g/f anf the car just locked its self. And the keys were on the seat. Good job i was at home and i had a spare key. Happened to anyone else?

cant beat standard wheels on 172/82, Dont normally like standard alloys as they are all gash but the sport wheels are nice. The only thing i would have is 182 wheels.

Smell Nice? I bought one Sat from Halfords, It was a nice slim lime one that fixed to the vents, Ummmm Great Buy; 1. It didnt smell 2. It kept falling off 3. When it was on it rattled loud 4. It went out the window. Bloody waiste of money, I bought a vanilla (sp) one today, It supposed...

30.58 plus vat is a good price.

ive had greenstuff on my saxo and astra coupe turbo, both running EBC discs to, imo standard pads are better, Greenstuff suffer from major brake fade. Only good thind is theres little dust. Mintex and ferdo (sp) im going for.

03 plate 172, just turned 9k on the clock

But you will have to bund the hole that it should go in. Have you any pics just to help?

you could buy a small breather filter, Green and Pipercross make them.

i've lost a bit of pipe them, I've got the pipe that goes to near the head light but the other there is just a hole into the air box.

When putting in my ITG at the weekend i noticed that at the bottom of the airbox there is a cold air feed going somewhere under the pass light and another opening where i assume its sucking in warm air from the engine, Anyone know why this opening is there? Thanks

I had my saxo mapped with a Dastek, 1 week later the program corrupted, took it back to pts in luton they charged another mapping fee 3 months later it happened again so i binned it and went to chipwizards. I would stay clear, well clear. Only my opinion

mine 172 has only done 9k and it is pretty stiff compared to other cars as is the gear box

When i drove it home two weeks ago from buying it and i didnt have to do anything to it, not wash it or anything. Bought it in show room condition from a po-lod man who never took it out in the rain. Must say i had a nice smile on my face driving home.

oh dear bit of a Keyboard worrier

Prob if one driver had no legs

My VTS was s**t slower than what i have now, So unless the TU5JP4 engine has been giving a nice pair of cams, headwork, map and basic breathing mods, It wont touch a 172.

Put the toys back in the pram

Weight950 kg 0-60 mph8.4 s Power Output120 bhp Vs Weight1021 kg 0-60 mph6.7 s Power Output172 bhp i know what i would have, 106's Good car in the days. But anyone thinking it will give a clio a head ache must be in their own little world.

you might have it, but not be able to turn it off?

I know its not an impreza but its still a 2.0l turbo but i sold my astra coupe turbo running at 243bhp for a clio 172 and i personaly think i made the right Decision, Turbo cars are fuel drinkers and you need a deep pocket. 172's are nippy with low cost. CTR's are just s**t, End of. Just...

lol @ 106 gti is a faster car... yeah right, Funniest thing i've heard all week. As said above wait and a good one will come up. I waited ages to get one, All that i looked at were sheds then i found a 03 plate with 9k on the clock, Garaged, never took out in the wet for 7k. was really...

my mk2 172 is the same, Crap. Also got continental tyres. When cornering its like being on a ice rink

Thats why ITG are best on the market then.

My ESP/Traction Contol dont work at all and i dont know why. Its only a 03 172 with 9k on the clock.

Oh Dear Oh Dear

Right fitting my ITG panel today i noticed at the bottom of the standard airbox there is a hole leading to the out side of the airbox just underneath, Why is there a feed coming from there as well as behind the light somewhere. Surley its just going to be sucking in warm engine air. Now...
