    Williams Insurance???

    Thats a bargin price anyway I was looking at £1.2k at 23. Definatly get your own policy though many insurance companies are weary of this driving on parents insurance and will invalidate the plicy if you claim whn you crash as you would be the main driver.

    Another service thread

    Should be about £180 to £240 depends where you are. There are specialsist Renault garages ie GDI and rentech though who do it for £130 near Cambridge or Portsmouth (I think).

    Edde Edde Edde: Koni Adjustables

    Catch me on MSN. But basically wait a second. e need to get them on a return policy so if they won't fit or I'm not happy trusting your life to a unacceptable loss of land you can get your money back in full. I'd imagine this has come to late though. I'll be picking them up next week most...

    Oil Change

    There no real risk using a different oil but for your car a decient 5-40 is what you want . However I'd just go and do a whole oil change. Its well worth it and not much effort.

    Clio 172 Mk2 Supercharger

    Theres a German company who do it but its 210hp maximum and £5.8k fitted as its TUV approved. Its not that a good a kit as it doesn';t go internal loweing pistons etc. Better spend £6k at Ktec or BB and get a turbocharged engine with 260~270hp. Or better still get a whole new engine (ie a VAG...

    Value of a trick 172

    Those modifications sound very good but they won't add much to the value unless you find a realy dedicated person. Much better getting the uprated bits off and swopping for standard.

    setting up coilovers

    You should realy measure on a totally flat surface and set up measuring the distance from the center of the wheel to the ground and taking away the distance from the floor to the bottom of the sills by where you lift the car as this distance isn't going to chnage panels have gaps which can...

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

    Renault dealers can supply you with part number (suppidly" some dealer let the side down though. The software goes further than just part numbers though.

    172 disks and pads

    Maybe they had a car with less wear (brakes may have had some air in them etc) more grippy tyres who knows. The 182 pads for the first about 50% of there wear are less effective than the old 172 pads due to there chamfers the difference isn't huge though.

    New Brakes pads for 1.2 clio

    You'll probably need a G clamp to push the piston back just remember very slowly if it takes you two minutes its better than a £150 bill for a new one including fitting. Its easy to bleed the system with the right tools otherwise it take a bit longer. When you open the bleed nipple and let the...

    BREMBO DISCS AND DS3000 Pads

    I'd think it is the disks. I'm sure regualar cleaning with 300's would help but its a hard setup. 2500's should be a lot better and regular cleaning will keep them clean i don't know how much care Evogone took with the car cleaning the wheels. You could always go run 15's or something cheap and...

    The Clio Mk2 fault finding dashboard trick

    Martin_89 There is no K its a H error but the display doesn't show it very well. MRBILLYUK - It sin't a huge diadnostic and any serious erros cannot be cleared so you won't get any more powe. Also any issues are logged in one of two points on the ECU (one of the erro locations can be...

    New Brakes pads for 1.2 clio

    Nope garages won't but you will notice the difference. Yep you can get away but if you don't feel like doing the bleeding and buying the kit (£20 from Halfords for the good one) then go to a local garage and ask them to do it its much easier with the £280 setups they have and should only be...

    Stand along ECU's for diesels.

    I'm thinkng of a new engine. J3neds showing us the way use VAG power. pmurray - I'm send you an email when I get the details of the other engine. How much info do you need though I know the VAG uses a completly different method of calculating boost (MAF) whereas the Clio uses boost temperature.

    36k for a 1.2 isn't that much work its a minor service. £150 is a good price though.

    OEM screen installation

    Ask Mike172sport as he found out what the part number for just the screen. Its not noted on the Renault technical system as a seperate part to buy (the whole dashboard is but its listed as £300 or so) but since it has a Renault part number you can order just the surround. £15 I think it was.

    re-NO-go 172....wont start

    Any idea which 30 amp fuse or where it was as this could give the clue away. The large amount of smoke indicates massive overfueling so my guess is a fuel pump failure mayeb it going to earth or something.

    Gearbox oil

    Its a pain easyast way to find it is to reach up from beloe the car to the front end of the gearbox next to the radiator and you'll find a nut like the sump nut. The level is so that it is right on the edge of the screw so the only way to know its full is to try and top it up by getting fluid...

    The Clio Mk2 fault finding dashboard trick

    Press the trip milage reset button instead (in the middle of the dash at the bottom). I cannot remember if I've tried this with my mates car which doesn't have a trip computer though.
