I don't know the answer to your problem, but 1500 revs sounds a little high even when the engines cold.

Mines a 55 plate bought in February 2006. My 172 was bought in November 2001. I don't know if they've issued you the wrong book? But I've never seen or heard of the fuel filter change interval being 72 or 36k miles 😮 All the years of being on Cliosport I've only ever seen it mentioned 150k or...

This is the service book that came with my 182 from new and it says fuel filter change is every 144k miles. I also had a 172 from new and that service book also said the same 🤔

To be honest Ive only used the pedal to get the saddle into position then use the handle.

They're heavy to pick up but dead easy to move around on the wheels. I wish I'd bought one a long time ago. If you know anybody with a trade card they're only £104. I also had a 20 voucher from confused so only cost me £84 😊 Found this video on YouTube. They're a bit hard to understand. They...

I bought the same jack a few months ago after owning a few cheap 30 quid Jack's for years. What a massive difference, I can get the car so much higher on to axle stands. Its solid as a rock.

I'm pretty sure, not 100% though that when I bought my first 172 in 2001, not long after that was when I first saw the term Full Fat. I might be wrong as time fades my memory in my old brain lol.

The term Full Fat really originated with the 172. You either got a lighter Cup or the heavier fully loaded 172 and it was christened Full Fat.

When they were new if it had anthracite 182 wheels it had the cup suspension pack. Slightly lower and stiffer springs. Of course 16 years later somebody could have fitted anthracite wheels or even had them refurbed in a darker colour so it's not always a given that it has cup suspension. Also...

I totally agree. I'd be put off if I knew a car had had a hard life before regardless of the condition it is in now.

I'm not knocking you if you think you can get 15k for it. If you don't ask you don't get. Just a couple of little things that I'd sort out if it was my car. The engine hoist bracket is rusty. I'd give that a rub down and spray with satin black. Plus the ecu cover looks a bit tatty. Again I'd...

I think once the material has started to fall apart it's time for the bin. Are they 50mm diameter? I can't remember off the top of my head. You could try buying something like this and reusing both ends...

I know that. But usually, from my experience anyway. If one the ABS rings was damaged or corroded to that extent it would throw up the ABS light within minutes of moving off not just when he hits 60mph. They would have been the first thing I checked just to rule them out.

ABS rings usually throw up the ABS light. You said its only got esp and serv light? @Cliomaxx69

You want a genuine Bosch lambda sensor, part number 0258006046 Yours is none genuine. If it hasn't got Bosch on the box it isn't. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/303441549650

Sounds like injector if eml is flashing. The op changed everything but them and wasted his money.

I think it looks spot on now. Like I said. The drop is only very subtle, about 20mm at most and it's handles so much better. I ordered on Monday afternoon and they came Tuesday morning. I can't recommend them and Kam racing highly enough 😊

I know you said you don't want to lower it but I had this problem when I MOTd it 2 weeks ago. Mine was still on genuine cup springs I went for Grams springs. It does lower it slightly, maybe about 20 mm but I can honestly say it feels much more planted now. I wish I'd got Grams springs earlier...

If you Google the problem it seems to point to the brake pedal switch or steering wheel angle sensor...

These are supposed to fit. I saved it after somebody previously posted the link. https://vi.raptor.ebaydesc.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemDescV4&item=333979738009&category=174019&pm=1&ds=0&t=1621445638818&cspheader=1

No longer available. Did it sell?

That's the one I bought. It was 84 quid with my trade card and Confused.com voucher. It's a good bit of kit. Heavy if you have to pick it up but moves easily on the wheels.

I made a fake wage slip and told them I was a HGV mechanic lol. The guy on the desk asked if I had a wage slip, I gave it to him and he only briefly looked at it 😜 I guess they're pretty slack and don't really check your credentials lol.

I bought a Halfords low 2 tonne profile trolley jack a few weeks ago. I've used it a few times and I'm really happy with it. I can get the car very high and get under it alot easier now than with my old knackered trolley Jack's I've had about 20 years lol. Only £86 with my £20 Confused.com...

He is taking the piss with postage. My girlfriends Polish and its quite common for Polish people to send parcels from Poland to the UK. You can send a 32kg parcel for only £16.

Bit of a strange one that as they drive on the right hand side in Japan 🤔

Nice one. Glad you're sorted now 👍

Put the stalk down into position 1, when it rains it should auto wipe. And like i said, the dial on the stalk sets the speed of the wipers. I turn mine on the fastest setting. But also how hard it rains determines how fast the wipers work. Put your key in the ignition and turn to position 1. On...

The auto wipers work when the stalk is down in position 1. The speed of the wipers is set with the dial you can see on the stalk. The square in the bottom of the window is cut out fitted from factory because the windscreen is coated . It was for French drivers who use toll roads and have...

Looks like another question / problem that gets asked then the OP never comes back on. I never get why people do that 🤔
