    Storage box?

    The the trays found under the passengers seat to stop things rolling around. Youc an stick them under the drivers seat if you want but Renault don't.

    Can anyone spot why this 172 Cup is dodgy?

    Full rally spec would indicate a group N etc race car which that isn't. The gap on the drivers door doesn't look right either.

    172 dead :-(

    Sounds just like your exhaust has failed get under it and have a look for any missing bolts etc.

    White 172 Clio (not photoshopped)

    Its because the cars supplied as cheap as possible and people can respray them so there no point giving it extra weight and cost.

    Are there any cars out there currently that REALLY rival the 182?

    If you ever get the oporitinty to drive one do you'll find its nothing like a 172/182 I looked at one and its power band was very narrow comparired with my dci (2 to 3k) plus the handling wasn't that good for throwability and the stearing was massively over assisted. Still what a gearbox humm I...

    Anyone 'retro' fitted a Renault Sat Nav system?

    It could be done but the looms are completly different so the cost and effort would make buying a car with it fitted look atractive. You can buy as some people have done the bulge screen and fit another sat nav setp for under £1k I think.

    This is quite worrying!

    Yep this has happened before all the work should be done under warently sounds like either the garage don't check stuff or its not a proper full UK Renault warently. You can get a brand new engine installed for under £2k.

    182. The 172 is much the same realy though. The CLio chassic so very throwable if thats the ringht word and fun the Seat has a dull feel to it IMO. Evn if its the quikcer car its the enjoyment you get which is more important IMO.

    Newbie, with DCi tuning Question...

    Yep you can chip or tunning box them but personally I wouldn't bothere for the gains. A supercip remap gives about 88hp but they give you a warently which for me means a lot. Dependsing which engine you have (I'll assume its the 65) you can get upto about 85hp from a tunning boxes and a few...

    Buying a Williams.

    Best go have a look over at http://www.williamsclio.co.uk/ there loads of info and a forum on there about the Williams/1.8's There a superb car though just as fats as 172/182's and in some respects bettwer than 172/182's. Its all a trade off though they do have there weeknessess. Biggest...

    I don't think there much to rival it the handling is superb for the price and the engine powerful.

    Plip Key won't work outside of car

    All mk1 owners i would imagine are welcome. I'd personally say any car owner would be welcome it how you are that makes you unwelcome even people who have 2 Williams Clios have been banned and I've got a Mk2 dci and I'm still accepted (or maybe that should read tolerated).

    172 dead :-(

    I don't know what laptop they use or software. The proper Renault software is the only decient one for diagnostics.

    2.0 hayns manual

    You don't need an RS one realy there not much difference than the normal cars for most issuss. I don't see them ever making a book its way to small a market.

    172 dead :-(

    Sounds most likly to be the exhaust but coil pack etc are possibilities.
  16. E

    172 dead :-(

    Check the exhaust lambeda sensors. I'd think its your exhaust you may have cracked it or disconnected it. The high speed runs will have heated evrything up like mad and made it expand.

    Clio 16V Tuning

    Depends how much you want to spend. 2.0 bottom end a remap and cams are good but pricsy. Decat is a good idea Lunner on here sells them cheap (£35 I think including p and p)

    22 months and 37,000 kms

    The Zeons can be adjusted get Renault to do it under warently. In my mind there quirks find me another similar better car. Anyway the cars arn't that bad IMO the problems you've listed are all relitivly minor have you ever seen the build quality for some of the "premium" brands?

    How to install the Renault dialogue software/ sort out problems.

    Sorry for the slow reply didn't see any new messages. Danlp6 - I get that error now its probably down to the hard drive being formatted in 32 or whatever bit if it doesn't work it just won't work some PCS' are just like this. TomV6 - There only one version people selll on EBay as as said...

    Can someone tell me

    Best lok at GSF for parts prices or BB I think they sell a kit which is a lot cheaper than Renault OE prices.

    Greeting from the holy land

    Owch that expensive. There are dealers who would probably send parts to you in Israel for a small fee. Those parts price are about 50~150% inflated but the 72k service is about £700 in this country. Rear boxes et arn't cheap from Renault Uk over here hence we use aftermarket exhausts or go to...

    fitting a steering wheel

    The system should deactivate in a few seocns but at £300 to fix it you do set the airbag off best leave it half an hour. I wrote a guide a while back on airbags etc this it might be stickied on the page have a search.

    I have a replacement engine (what should I change on it b4 putting it in the car?)

    Thinking about it if you are stripping the engine and rebuilding it get a 2.0 bottom end for more power and a better low down power.

    7 Clio's, 1 Modus and a Clio again in 2006

    The Modus 105hp dic has the 6 speed box as used in the new Clio RS. Better is a relitive term it runs more complex injecotrs the 105hp car and makes more power though. We used mPG in this country so your car does about 61mpg (4.5461 liters in a gallon and 8km's is about 5 miles). Thats very...

    I have a replacement engine (what should I change on it b4 putting it in the car?)

    Depending on price new starter. I'd also change ball joints all rubbers for the anti roll bars etc and the top rubber thingie ontop of the shock. If you're feeling rich and want a good job I'd strip the engine down rebuild all the gasgets piston rings etc it will make the engine more...

    buying brake disc+pads info from GSF.

    I've just rang up there phone number and either got a nice operator or somehow managed to sweet talk her into giving me the discounted part on mail order.
  29. E

    how much?

    Nope you need a new stearing wheel the rubbers arn't replacable. £150 I think for a new wheel. It will be done under warenty if you still have one.

    buying brake disc+pads info from GSF.

    TD172 the brakes disk on the WIlliams/1.8 16V aand M2 phase 2 plus Mk2 phase 1 1.6 16V share the same disks. The calipers have the same pads as the above cars plus the same calipers as the Renault 5GTT but the %GTT uses the smaller 238mm disks. Its funny but true the WIlliams and a 1.2 new...
