Diesel has more power per liter than petrol (one of the reason for better MPG). Problem is the fact engines need to rev to get power diesels are limited to ~4k due to there heavy moving parts weight. Also diesels are underfueled as standard its like running a petrol on 60% the fuel it should...

Imports cannot have Cup bits. The team cars might be the only way round this as there Cupped as normal.

It wont work ever. CAD is useless the real world the real world isnt computer generated. I work with some of the best and expensive stuff on the planet and it still doesnt fix development problems.

13.7 seconds. I claim the award for slowest but Im willing to put it to the test.

Is there something you want to be telling us all about? Do you like dump vales or you just want a few more throttle bodies?

I personally think the only reason to remove the spare was down to cost. Theres only so far some people are willing to go in the name of performance.

I should recomend the disel but unfortunatly I cannot. The only reason to swop is the better MPG and the bigger car. The Cup isnt to bad realy space wise and how often youd use the extra space is questionable in my view. I dont understand though how you think its yor car +£5k for a mondeo...

Id like to see if I could get better mpg with an 80dci I was originally going to get the 80 as it was the same price as my 65dci due to the extras I had added on. Do you think your bigger tyres do anything to affect the MPG?

Its a phase 2 the phase two cars have triangular lights. The garag should know the difference Id go elsewhere if they didnt personally. The engine detials plate is down the front of the front of the engine below the injector cover. Id be very worried if it wasnt there did you buy the car...

There you go

Why not buy a cheap spare and stick it in the boot? I dont think they come out to recover you unless the tyre foam hasnt worked ie sidewall tire damage. Even then they can be awquard.

After getting realy bored I tried to max out 30mph in 5th on a long bit of road I got over 100mpg but exactly how much I didnt know my guess is 120~130 but that wasnt good for the car (wasnt my car). I get bored driving and getting 80mpg end up going back to my 55~60mpg everywhere ways.

Which service the 18k is about £100 to £150 the 36k from £150 to £300 ring round a few more dealers to get a better price. Id recoment you did go with Renault so long as its reasonably cheap as they update the software etc.

Limiter should be at 5k +- 150rpm Mines at about 4950rpm

its a dci65 or dci80 but they give 70 and 85hp after being run it. 0-60 of the 65 is about 13.7 seconds and the 80 is 11.7 (I think) Top speed is 100 and 105 mph. (these figures arnt made up or my own guesses but a diesel car magazines ones). But as people will say its in gear there faster...

Move up north dont have to go as far as Scotland though. My local dealership Speed Six in Wrexham ie North Wales with do the dci all in for £150.

£30 ex vat or so from Renault.

Whole new gearknob unfortunatly

Might be to account for bigger wheels the other Renault cars the Sav nav is fitted to. Apart from that Ive no idea

It guesses based on your speed, your last known position and direction, most tunnels are a stright run from the outside road so it accuate enough. The trip computer does the same if it looses it fuel flow then it guesses the fuel flow for the next few miles.

Its track 1 on the black connector A Or track 23 on conector A on the instument panel

Id say £6k is a good deal. The more you pay the more money you will loose on a car so Id recomend against buying a 182 unless you can get an excellent deal.

15k on a 172 engine is nothing there strong, 15k is just beded in. The Cup engine is likly to have other problems. The bits are a straight swop even just remember that the Mk2 Clios have electric throttles etc but the bits your modyifying are the same.

They probably dont care the 1762 has been and gone Cup meant nothing before the 172 Cup made it what it has a repuation as. The new ones called Team I belive but its bound to be called Cup on here. Im sure the ABS can be "fixed". Unfortunatly the 172 Cup is the last of the none ABS cars from...

Silver. But it doesnt look as good when you have polished it as black but never looks as dirty. Black looks good when its clean but gets terriably dirty quick and shows the scratch up.

Sounds like some sort of cold running problem. Best get it to Renault might be the TDC sensor.

Dont go messing round with the airbags in my view disconnect the power and leave them to loose there charge is the easiest/ best idea in my opinion

Forget it Renault like being difficult most units dont work. If you fancy having a go with a soldering iron you could give it a go to make your own wire up but otherwise forget it. Get a different head unit or a proper Renault CD changer have a look on the for sale area people have them for...

The 1.6 16V and dci80 (probably 100 as well) dynamic + had them fitted as standard.

The guid of how to do it is on the front page under guides I think. Disconnect the battery for 1/2 hr before hand just incase.
