    Oil usage

    Renault allow a maximum of 500ml every 1000miles. Anything more and there is a problem. The fact that it uses oil though is perfectly normal. Mine uses about 500ml at most between oil changes (3K miles) and its on 55K.

    Clio 16V Tyres

    A lot better than my old Yoko A539s (and even older A520s) but thats not hard! I like them, very grippy IMO, best tyre Ive had yet. Id imagine the Rainsports are a bit better in the wet though (from the name lol, and what people say about them) Im getting some F1s though with my new 16"s...

    sunroof leaking

    If its coming in from the s/r frame, it just needs siliconing down. Just make sure its really dry when you do it though.

    Lager Calipers

    You can still get a big brake conversion on your 15"s! Standard disc are 258mm, and K-Tecs Big Brake Conversion use 285mm discs i.e. still fit under 15" alloys.

    Oilcooler fitted!!

    Looks good. Am hoping to get one for mine soon. What size is it? Did you have any problems fitting it?

    want a bigger engine

    To be honest, since you havent got any mods, Id sell it and buy a valver, unless you wanted to drop the GTT lump in!

    Little 16v Niggles!!

    Ive used 10K boost on mine and was really impressed with it. My valver was on about 51K when I did this, I wouldnt recommend it though with your mileage! Any good bodyshop will be able to sort the rust out fairly cheaply. Better to get it done sooner rather than later! As for the E/W switch...

    How Long Does It Take For Oil...

    Once the coolent temp gets up to normal, the oil temp will start to rise. Mine normally reaches about 60-70 within 10 minutes. You can gradually rev it a bit more as the oil gets warmer, but most dont boot it until at least 70, normally about 80.

    Neck Size for IK

    72mm rings a bell but dont go quoting me on that! One of the 172 lads will know for sure

    Very big company with a good reputation. Ive not ordered anything myself from there but my brother used to buy loads of bits for his old golf and never complained.

    When can you red line a new car

    Why do you want to red line it ??? Peak power is at 6250rpm iirc on the 172s so going all the way to 7000rpm will not make it go any faster!

    tyre advice wanted...

    I would change all 4! A520s are crap tyres! Id get Toyos, or if you can afford them, Goodyears.

    LAMBDA SENSOR

    Mine went on the valver, emissions went through the roof! Fairly cheap to buy, and easy enough to fit too.
