when fitting coilovers to the front of a Mk 2 172 do you have to compensate for different weight either side of the engine bay to get the car the same height either side. Dont want it sitting higher one side than the other

if i disconnect the battery then after an hour or so disconnect the steering wheel airbag and fit a resistor will the SERV light still come on when the battery is reconnected as there has been a break in the system?

If I remove the front seats of my 172 is the airbag warning light going to stay on constantly - is there a way around this if so? also how do you remove the seat without the airbag exploding - do you simply detach the plugs underneath the seats?

When I first had my exhaust about 3 weeks ago i had problems with it moving and also it was way too loud so Charlie sorted it out by putting a smaller backbox on - this has made it sound great but still getting problems with it moving. Yesterday was the first time I had driven my car for more...

If I change the rear discs on my 172 do I need to buy new wheel bearings or can the originals be pushed out of the disc and then used again in the new discs?

If So how do you find them - contemplating various makes at the moment so could do with some help!

Hi All Have spoken to Venom Motorsport today about the possiblity of a group buy of the fk coilover that k-tec sell for ?560. These shocks are obvioulsy height adjustable but have fixed damping (not adjustable). Normally Venom sell them at ?486 but have agreed to drop the price to ?421...

If anyone has a silver 2001 on Clio 172 with a Carbon Fibre bonnet please post a picture - one of my mates thinks it will look crap and I want to prove him wrong before I get one. Thanks

Need to get some springs fitted to my clio 172 but dont know any garages around here and would prefer to find someone that knows what they are doing. Any advice or recommendations would be appreciated. Or if any of you are mechanics living relatively close to cardiff let me know Nice 1

Anyone have any advice on which lowering springs to buy - I have a set of 17s and want it lowered but do not want to lower too much - I still want the ride to be relatively comfortable but would prefer a bigger drop than the eibach springs give Help!
