both looking good! love the cold air feed in the headlight only because we know whats actually under the bonnet and its not some chav destroyed his headlight to get a cold air feed on his 1.2 lol wish i had put the 1.6 in my 1.2 back in the day like i wanted to and built something cool!!

iirc 5th gear is the gear that causes issues when the gearbox oil is LOW so makes sence it was causing bother when it was overfilled. possibly had a n/s driveshaft (need to drain oil)

lol aye fukin grass hanging out the bumper! whaping the bumper and rad off it tomorrow morning to have a wee look make sure its all straight. lucky it was grass and mud it hit rather than a wall/tree etc so it all looks good, subframe is untouched, slam pannel fine etc so its just a new bumper...

you must be a virgin?

yeah i could have but didnt want to drive too fast due to bits of bumper dragging under car and touching the wheel lol

was snowing havin a wee bit of fun and came round a corner and there was a burst water pipe that had been running down the road that had turned into sheet ice on the road! hit it and went straight lol thru a bush and front end in a ditch lol. radiator pushed against the clutch arm that the...

yeah boost came in and i was off!

lol my dci has failed every year with the previous owner

in a ditch haha only needs a bumper and a radiator fortunately!

ive always just took the car a good long blast to get oil temperature and then drain it

haha thats what i get for being a bellend in the snow!

im 19, 190bhp 172 and 65bhp diesel bus!!! lol

lol u mean u could get xenons and climate haha

^ this guy has deffo solved the problem..... lol wtf butler 205, that happened on my 172 when the rear disks and pads and front disks and pads were badly worn because the level of fluid had dropped in the resovouir. i thought this was the same problem but its got brand new front brakes on it!

you have to pay £5.30 to get into wales, why would you want to do that?! haha

both the stop light and handbrake light are flickering on and off when going over bumps etc, thought it was possibly due to the brake fluid being low in the resevoir due to needing pads and disks but changed them today and its still doing it so im assiming its some sort of loose conection etc...

how much u wanting to spend?

performance wise im assuming they are all roughly the same but im looking for the best ie, what filters better! and what size filter im looking for? its for my 172, relocated battery so doing a cup racer setup behind the headlight and got some mental heat padding stuff to make an enclosure for it!

they map well was sure a gain of around 7bhp and similar torque gain was to be had, think thats on a standard one too, more to be had with different exhaust,cat and filter

Re: I need a QUITE 182 cup stainless exhaust!? OE isnt actually that expensive to be honest, but as you probably know wont last that long lol

lol its not ice hes on! sounds good mate, pitty they loose power with open filters as they sound awesome lol

probably wont be fitting it till feburary when ive got my next week off and should have 172 finished by then! but will be awesome haha

lol my cars never been near a ramp for an mot haha

small engine petrols imo are a bit crap to drive, our 1.2 isnt that smooth when changing gear or pulling away, where my dci with 3x more miles on the clock feels so much more refined! id go for at least 1.6 16v if not dci, my dci doesnt feel that much slower around town than my 172 does due to...

weve got a mk3 1.2 16v expression, its well built, handles brilliant, slow, crap to drive being a 1.2 BUT.... its reliable, has a 3yr warranty, spacious, well built, good on petrol etc etc. its a good boring car

was a trophy behind me on my way home from edinburgh lastnight, i came onto the motorway from the roundabout near edinburgh airport and it was behind me when i came on from the sliproad, i was croozing at a ton and it was getting closer so wasnt hanging about! lol i was in red DCi clio covering...

180bhp of red shite! wouldnt think that in the summer we drive over 1200bhp of cars lol lets see what everone else has!

black one i dont own anymore, red dci is my daily bus cost me penuts, silver 172 is a complete minter that cost me over 7k just over a year ago but im still paying for that lol!!

The Cars... the boy, excited...

coilpack would be the first thing id try, around £60 new from memory. check the wiring on the back of the engine (its where the ECU is located) it can rub and brake the wires killing the loom.
