    172 / cup engine - what is in the very top of the engine - help needed

    it will??? erm, can't see how the dephaser being slack would cause an oil leak. that's a complete co-incidence, or the leak has been caused by a badly fitted seal and is related to the depahser failing. If the wrong seal had been fitted then i can easily see this causing both issues

    Clio 172 timing belt

    You'd be surprised, it's not just having and using the tools, it's knowing how to use them. I've fixed a fair number that were done with the right tools but still miles out

    if you look at the graph you can see that was the first run the higher boost run peaks at 1.2, and drops off to about 0.9bar by the limiter

    Itg panel Filter

    genuinely, dont bother, they're very expensive and not very good. Get a pipercross if you're after a panel filter

    Tow Bar and Thule MTB rack fitted

    my mate forgets it's there sometimes (his passatt) and starts getting a bit close to hedges. Have to remind him how much he's just paid for his wheels

    172'd valver issues.....

    have you monitored alternator voltage under load? never measured on a clio but some cars have a voltage stabiliser for the pump so it's never over ~12v if that's not there and the alternator is over charging then that could be your issue, or something similar

    What Oil?

    pretty sure 1.5dci uses 5w30 I'd use some semi decent 10w40 semi synth in a 1.4 i think, not a stressed engine

    Pressure plate hates me. Upgrade clutch kit or not?

    i've seen a couple of standard clutches come apart actually, think all valeo. There's no reason they should, maybe a badly made batch

    spraying intercooler?

    i painted my 200sx intercooler in matt black barbeque paint. Hammerite stuff is runny as water so no chance of clogging the fins black is better for dealing with heat

    172 mapped for 97 RON

    if it's mapped on high octane, you need to stick to that octane or you'll have issues. Not so much on a standard car, but on somehting that's been optimised you're much closer to any tollerence limits so you can't just use crap or you'll be into detonation and losea big old chunk of power...

    that's the kind of converter you need if you dont have a coms port on your laptop yes, but you'll need a cable too as the adapter will be very short
