    Sport'ish DCI after a weekend clean

    stick a set of ebc green stuff pads on it to save your wheels getting black, thats what i used to use on my dci100 to keep the wheels clean! pads are no worse or better than standard but loads less dust. do the engine cover the same colour of purple would be cool. i contacted that N2graphix to...

    Rejecting a duff car - where do i stand?

    RUK are not interested, they say its arnold clarks issue, they are just apparently trying to make sure it goes smoothly, yet they dont seem to be doing to well with that part!

    Rejecting a duff car - where do i stand?

    Why did you choose a RenaultSport Clio?

    because i couldnt afford an EP3 CTR at 17 at the time and could just afford a 172!, 6yrs later im on clio 7

    182 v 197 v 200

    182 v 197 v 200

    when spending a decent amount of coin on a car, personally I wouldn't mind spending the cash to get the options I want, had I took a bog standard GT DCi id have saved about 5 grand over ordering the one I did with probably £2000 of options! but it was worth it to me!

    182 v 197 v 200

    I bought a pre reg 200 with delivery millage, suffered full engine failure and Renault uk are not interested because its "not brand new" and left me to deal with the dealership

    Renault Clio Dci 8O

    an aggressive map shouldn't be chucking out loads of black smoke, its over fueling. get a high power map from a decent tuner and it should have a minimum increase in smoke if any!

    difference between 1.2 sport and 1.2 dynamique

    they done a ph1 sport that some early dynamiques come up as on insurance databases for some reason, they should go under the proper dynamique model though rather than sport.

    182 v 197 v 200

    going back a few pages, keyless entry lets u open the car from about a meter away but it physically wont start the car unless your inside the car, it just brings up no card detected on the scree, I was playing about with it and even with the window down and my card about an inch outside the car...

    DCi 80 Service

    if you've never done it before allow an hour just taking your time and doing it properly, access is pretty easy on it. if its not already had gearbox oil its worth doing that, you know what these boxes are like!

    My dCi (pics)

    id still be sticking premium rubber on it, my mapped 100 would light up T1R's in 2nd gear unless perfectly smooth road surface!!

    182 v 197 v 200

    ive had some quick 172's but id be kidding myself if I said the 200 was slower! they are quick quick cars, my first engine wasn't quite as good as the 2nd one but obviously it had issues from day one, the current engine is a cracker. pitty Arnold clarks workman ship is terrible for the actual...

    What's the most BHP ??

    ive never tried a full set of mounts but with fresh genuine ones and polly lower one it still tramped running standard power
  19. Martin_172

    What's the most BHP ??

    not really as when its spinning its wheels up its going to be suffering axel tramp rather than a smooth power curve which will be putting more shock though the box. they arnt bad, regular oil changes, dont launch it, blip them on downshifts, dont rush them thru the gears and they arnt bad!

    Clutch for 200 cup?

    182 Manifold

    if its just a replica of the 182 mani then good gains to be had, best mod i done to my old 172. being a cheap copy though its not the ideal part to be changing if it doesnt stand up very well! different if it was at the front of the engine it could be worth a gamble.

    Clutch for 200 cup?

    check us all judging the guy when it could have been a genuine fault. my little 200 was always warmed up, driven with mechanical sympathy and looked after and it still shat its engine at 2500miles!

    1.8 N/A Renault engine 280bhp!!
