Quick question, simple reply required .. .. ..
If I unplug the ABS fuse and then plug it back in, does the ABS light simply extinguish without the car suffering any further consequences?

Fitted Pagid Blues to the front of my ph1 RS about a forthnight ago. Haven't driven the car much since then. Put them through the Pagid recommended bedding proceedure and some driving since, nothing too hard.
There seems to a howling noise (for want of a better word to describe it) coming from...
The connecting wire between the front spots on a phase 1, how prone are these to failing?
I seem to be getting 12v where the cable comes from the engine to the lights, where on it connects to this cable and sends power to both light units. Both bulbs are fine . . . which only leaves the cable...
I've had a sticky throttle in the Phase one for the last while. I've spent the last fortnight trying to cure it. Firstly, a clean of the throttle body cured an intermittant and rough idle problem that had manifested.
Secondly was a replacement throttle cable. While this hasn't cured the sticky...
I'm just after spotting a Cup for sale over here for in and around the same money that I'd be looking for for my phase 1 172.
Are cups much, if any, better than the Phase 1?
Obviously, thats a pretty subjective question. One mans better is another mans shite, but interested in your opinions . .
Booked my car in for a throttle cable replacement on Friday last. Despite giving the girl my VIN for her to order the part, she ordered a cable for a 2001 Clio from Renault, which she has just called to tell me is different from the cable needed on the 172.
Is this the case? Are the two cables...
An onboard clip from Mondello International last Friday. Ground was very damp, wet in places. This was the last run of the morning session and my brake pads were cooked, necessitating early braking.

Over the last forthnight the car has begun to stall intermittantly, but with increasing regularity with the clutch in/ car in neutral. It's getting to the point that when I start the car on occasions that unless I keep my foor slightly on the throttle when I turn the car on, it starts revs to...
I've been trying in vain for the past forthnight, if not longer, to try and track down either a part number for the Espace airbox or a second hand item for sale.
I've been in contact with a few members on here in relation to it and I've gotten the part number required, but after being on to a...
Apologies if this is in the 'wrong' section but as there is none specifically that it would fit into, I've stuck it in the most technical of sections.
Are there any aftermarket seat rails out there to lower the seating position on the drivers side. I currently have it as low as it can go and...
I don't usually do these look what I have threads, but today is especially slow in work and I have time to kill before I catch the train home!
Bought a ph1 172 in January of this year as I changed jobs and needed something both more economical to run and something that would take mileage a bit...
Can someone tell me offhand the prices of engine mounts for a Phase 1 RS Clio off Renault UK??
I've been on to Renault Ireland this morning and they want the equilivant of STG£103 for the lower gearbox one, and STG£73 for another (not the one on top)...
Surely they're a lot cheaper than that...
Hi guys,
Wondering if one of yous can help me. I'm looking for either the part no for plugs that Renault use in the ph1 172 or a chassis number off a 172 that I can run into the dealer system for them to get me the right ones.
I took down my own chassis number a digit short in a text and...
Trying to decide what to do with the rubstrips on my ph1 172. I'm in two minds as to whether to get the Ph1 rubstrips colorcoded or to get some Ph2 rubstrips.
Are both sets interchangabe in so far as fitting, simple as one off and the new one on, no messing about?
Is a Sports-cat as good if not better than a de-cat?
Obviously it's a more expensive option than getting someone to weld in a de-cat pipe for you, but will the sports-cat yield the same gains as a full de-cat pipe or still restrict you to a degree
Hello chaps,
New to this Renault game that we're all playing.
Bought a Phase 1 172 at the weekend. Got it tracked this morning and my camber is out on the front. It's running 1.3 on the right and 2.3 on the left. Is the camber adjustable on the 172's?
The reason for it being out is I...
