I know you can disable the auto wipers (By moving to the top position, i.e wipers off! Or have I missed something)..but when disabled were missing any form of intermittent...
Adrian
..cruise rules, but the autowipers do suck. Renault would have done much better to allow you to disable the autowipers and have the intermittent instead... Driving to work this morning I had to keep turning the wipers on and off to get the screen to clear - I had it on max. sensitivity as...
..and?
If you buy from a dealer then you pay dealer prices that includes the cost of any work! I had a sensor replaced in my old clio which must have taken about 2 minutes to do (when it went wrong again I checked it out) and for that I got charged about 40 quid labour....
..bottom line...
..hehe..picked up my monaco blue 172 last tuesday, well chuffed. I think the blue looks really nice, and like others I have said, far too many silver cars around...
If I get time when I get home Ill post some picks I took after washing it the other day!
Mine was supaguarded too....
Adrian
..cool.. Im currenly weighing up whether or not to refit my audio equipment to my car when I pick it up (tuesday!) - ive got the same amp as you + a empeg head unit (which I dearly miss having in the car since I removed it pending the new cars arrival). Another factor is that I have a fair...
...hes got some well cool roads round where he lives, I went to university at loughborough (30 miles from derby approx.) and there are some amazing roads round there! Some of them were like playing the old "screamer rally" computer game.... If only Id had a decent car when I was...
indeed! At least theres plenty of sport to watch to keep my mind off it! Ive been waiting since the 1st of august so a couple more days isnt too bad....
Adrian
..mine so far has been delayed 1 week, ordered on the 1st of august or something...was originally given a delivery date of today, now been told 23rd, renault have changed it twice, but its not moved for a couple of weeks now...hopefully it should arrive when they say...
...canfordcliffs, what...
..the infinitys I used to have installed had a separate crossover box, so you had no choice in removing the top of the dash to install them - and you need to cut the wire to accomodate the crossover.
Pheonix do some speakers with crossovers built into the speaker (like the renault) those would...
I ordered my 172 at the beginning of august and was given a delivery date of the 16th of October, I phoned last week to ask for an update and I was told that it would be the 20th, I got a phone call yesterday saying that it would arrive on the 21st now - but Im not sure whether or not thats the...
I was in sydney a few months back and the aussies were ripping me about england losing to australia in the footie & cricket...made em shut up thouigh when I said we were the best in the world at rugby...
..I wish I was in australia now though :(
Adrian
..the autoleads cable does only stalk (At least the one I had did), I think the cable you need is the connects2 cable (http://www.connects2.co.ukwww.connects2.co.uk) - the connects2 box does both stalk and display and should be a darn sight less hassle to install.

Are there any cliosport "stickers" that are "internal reapplyable vinyl type stickers" (like tax holders)? If not, are there any plans to do so?
I cant think of a better way to explain that?!
Adrian
glad Im not the only one who noticed the high treble with them....
I havent got a sub.....I dont particularly want one.
Oh well, I guess Ill have to have a trip to some shops to see what I can find out....
Thanks.
Adrian
see above ;P
..mainly rock/metal, korn, soad, incubus, pearl jam etc....
..its quite hard to get an idea of what stuff will sound like in the car, no shops have my head unit, they dont tend to have profile 4s plugged in to listen to different speakers...then if I choose theyll probably sound...
ive already got the amp! Ive had it running for over a year...its just my speakers that I dont like....and the fact that im changing car! I agree, genesis amps rule!
...Id prefer components as well that drop straight into the 172, the infinitys didnt....
Crikey, you spent 800 quid on...
Firstly apologies for anything that doesnt make sense here, Ive been drinking...
...I currently have a 1.2 clio which up until about 3 weeks ago had a empeg installed in it, I removed it because in less than a months time I should get my 172....

agreed, its a joke.
I especially like the cut up piece of wooden pallett (sp?) as the spoiler...
..I esp. like the:
I am sure that it puts down at least "60" Wheel horsepower, if not "62".
Youve got to love americans!
Adrian
wohoo...mine will have it too (it bloody should do as I ordered mine after you!)
Thanks for the update pete!
(And octobers not too far away now!)

From what I read in the message jeremy townsend (He seems very knowledgable on renault) posted on here (this is what I made of what he said...) it was the cars destinned for the UK that would have cruise fitted, these cars themselves are slightly more specced than their european counterparts...
...phone them up, tell them what car youve got and what stereo and they should be able to tell you...
From what Ive read both the display and controls should work as well with the connects2 adaptor.

not sure on price, but I think theyre about £60 from what I can remember.
The autoleads one does work, I think its a lot more effort to fit it than the connects2 adaptor.
The connects2 adaptor is also fairly large (can someone confirm...
...I had an autoleads adaptor for my 1999 Clio...
To fit it you had to:
pull the seals away from the doors by the a frames
remove the a frames
remove the 2 screws in the dash by the doors, remove the 3 screws in the top of the dash by the window, remove the 2 screws holding on the cover...
From what I can gather (Theres been a bit of talk on here recently about this subject) all UK ones being manufactured now will have cruise fitted.... So if you order from a dealer and the car is ordered from the factory it should have cruise fitted....
