Id say keep the Williams it sound perfect car no rpobelms. I get the idea that 172 ist quite a Williams you dont want to take a backwards step with no MPG gains etc do you?

Yellow all the way Looks better and green cars are unlucky. My parents have had 2 green cars the first was a Volvo which the handbrake failed and went though the garage door. The second is there new Forester which even though is only 7 months old has a had a huge stone chip in the...

Ive got a copy of the dialogues (has the prices etc) if you want any parts and prices but wont have any 182 stuff in 172 is all covered though as its a years old version I think.

Quite a few bits will be comming out depends how much you wnt to spend or what you want. The changes to the engine are bigger throttle body different exhaust and intake (I think) manifold different injectors and a few other bits not much. A turboed Lupo I think Ive seen the kit some where...

Renault tell you to be gently for a few reasons 1) If something breaks it will in the first few K (somthing like 80% of work is needed under 2k miles) so best have it break and do as little damage as possible. 2) Most people will be trading up so there worried about being sued from people...

Im one of the reope who says cane it engines are designed to be hammered there whole life (called the boy racer test) from cold etc now sure youll never drive it as bad as that ie red line from cold but shows the design and testing of the engine. The engine needs to be hammered (well get up...

77 01 045 193 WIPER ARM RH £40.84 ex vat part number one on the drawing below. Looks quite easy to replace http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/gallery/full/1086113932__err.jpg

You need the super stuff to get most power from the engine the ECU was programed for 97+ fuel so not using it means less power as the timming is retared to stop knocking (although you probably cannot tell).

As for warently any mods and affected equipement warently can be invalid only if they can prove the mod is to blame so unless thay can prove that different springs accounted for a suspension failure they cannot refuse any warently work on anything.

Nope theyll never know. You need to bed the engine in hard anyway for max power and ecomony.

Between £80 and £200 Ive heard depends where you live etc.

What about cars for tall drivers with big feet (rumours all true girls;))

Just dont take it to hester the only reason I ever went there is because they have a 182 which they let me test drive as no other dealership even was happy to give me a brocour. There excellent at sales apparently and have a high staff turn over. But as for warently work well SPee six is all...

Yep more torque than a 182 in the DCIs. Take a test drive in one and drive it as you would normally and youll notice how much faster it is reving the nuts of them doesnt work.

Dont go to Reanult Chester is your first problem Try speed six in Wrexham there much better for warently work even if you didnt buy the car from there. Ive heard and known to much about them to take my car there. Where about are you from?

If you dont mind us asking what other cars do you define as communicative. The 182 I drve with cups stuff seemed to eb the same as what you are on abot the stearing ligher than the dynamic at higher speed but no communication. Ok so I only managed to go round one round about but my old escort...

Ive got a Dci 65 very good engine economical and even my parents notice how quiet at 80 on the motorway it is even fully loaded which is good as they owned a E class merc not so long ago. I would say personally the only Clios to buy are the 172/182 or the DCi the lower spec petrols arnt...

The 182/172 need 98 Ron to operate accoring to the maps designed for max power. The mapping was done on 98 fuel so using cheaper stuff emans the engine knocks and the ecu changes the timing loosing you power.

Wonder if the A8 there using is the V8 diesel one?

Only way to find out is to try I think it does though. Press the reset button and then turn the ignition on.

Be much more impressive to make a complaint at the motorshow IMO with some journalist there to listen

If you have the trip computer button press it it not use the reset button.

I nver feel bad the car needs a workout now and again (well every day). Only feel worried that I might have crashed with one little slip

Whats your email addres I need it to send the PDF file to. Pm it me if you dont want to risk getting any spam Smokey is someone who sells them on here have a search for him he sells the cds for £7.50 I think Good luck with the project what sort of power are you aiming for?

Get the software on the ECU updated it is a common problem down to the design poor idle maybe the mods are just meaning you hear it more. Might be worth getting the plugs changed as well.

I think the side skirts are the same as the 172 has had for yrs. If so its http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/gallery/full/1084738650__err.jpg 60 00 073 577 PANEL £81.97 ex vat for part 2 on the drawing 60 00 073 578 SIDE SKIRT £81.97 ex vat for part 1 on the drawing 77 03 072 209...

Assuming there the same price as the old ones (they will be) then there £100 each without tyres. Assume about £50 per tyre.

The 182 and 172 do need premium fuel the ECU is desinged to advance the spark timing to take advanatage of it. By running none premium the engine start to knock so the power is retarded you wont notice it but there is an advantage if I get a 172/182 the aditional stuckk they stick in is better...

Sounds a good deal that to me assuming its not an import. £6.2 k is above what your cars probably worth just but £9.4k is about right for a 172 like that.

Yep. All speeedos have to be accurate to withi +0% and -10% so they will never over read. Say 5mm wear on a tyres for a normal dynamic. I think works out to be about 1.5% chnge ie 100mph is achually 98.5mph
