aggreed abs doesnt help in snow.drove the girlfriends clio in the snow last week and the abs makes it virtually impossible to use the brakes.found the cup a lot easier to slow down than hers in the snow.abs will always brake better in good conditions though.

about £110 each from renault i think.

the flywheel going blue is just caused by heat from the clutch slipping.if this is your complaint i cant see how they could use that to prove that youve abused it because the blueing can be caused by a slipping clutch anyway.

there is a chance.they will put the age and mileage onto a warranty estimator on renault net and that will automatically send back how much contribution is applicable.

yes i would recheck it after youve drove it for a few days to give the suspension time to settle back down.

seal the arial base with silicon.the sunroof frame however i would fit a new seal.if the silicon doesnt seal properley its a pain to remove it so you can do it again.posted a topic with the part number of the seal so do a search.seal is only about £30

which side is higher?

not particually but you need to find which one it is because there is one coil per cylinder.they are pencil type ing coils that sit on top of the spark plug.

you misread it mate.1.2s dont have that bracket but all the rest do.

any clio 2 apart from the 1.2 will have the same bracket.get one from a clio 2 phase 2 to be sure though.

sounds like the shocker turret mod reqs doing.take it to your dealer.seat squeak is probably the seat base runners,try greasing them with some spray grease.

all clio 2s apart from the 1.2 use the same bracket.

it will probably affect the handling espicially under heavy braking etc.i would put the lowered side back to normal until you sort out the other side.

the only misfire on these that i have come across have been caused by one of the ignition coils.a coil fault doesnt always register in the fault memory so the engine needs to be misfiring at the time to find which one it is.

its probably just the weight of the car pivoting on the jack.the front is heavier so the rear end is pivoted of the ground first by the weight of the front end if you get what i mean.a sort of see saw affect.

which bit do you mean? the metal bracket that the computer bolts to?

mot will cost between £25 and £40 depending on where you go and you get a free retest within 14 days.sometimes wether something is failed or advised is all down to the testers individual judgement even though there is a set book of guidelines.

never come across this on a 172 although there was small faulty batch of heads with valve guide problems on some of the 16v engines.that problem was resolved a long time ago and it only affected about a batch of twenty heads anyway.why do you ask?

a 172 doesnt have an air mass sensor like a vauxhall for example if thats what you mean.they only have a pressure and air temp sensor so fitting a k&n shouldnt cause any problems.

the friction linings arent covered after the 1st year although there may be some renault contribution.

exhausts are only covered in the 1st year.

seal kits are easy enough to replace.

if you change the oil regulary and use good quality oil you shouldnt really need to use engine flush.

cable operated clutch.subframe has to be removed so the gearbox can be removed to change the clutch.changed a few clutches at work so i dont think the standard clutch is very good.

sounds like the coolant temp sensor.remove the sensor and see if its rotted through on the inside.

single piston calipers on the 172

if a fault is detected or if the abs computer isnt working then the warning light should be permanatly on.

change the cable first if that doesnt help then change the clutch assembly.you cant adjust the cable it self adjusts via a ratchet assembly on the clutch pedal.

does the warning light work?

where you from 16v-2.0?
