i had a similar leak, it was coming from the rear wash pipe.
remove the wipers (give them a GOOD tug) and remove the scuttle panel, then the wiper motor and finally the washer bottle, (seriously only 10 mins once the wipers off)
under all this is the pipe feeding the rear wash, on mine the...
Im sure their is a huge divide of opinion, but a carbon one does seem tempting.
anyone got any pics of a koncept (painted or carbon) on a phase 1 172?
cheers
i have had footwell leak too, hopefully fixed today, under the washer bottle is the pipe feeding the rear washer, on mine the grommet had come so loose that the water was running inside the hole straight down the footwell.
a good squeeze of silicon seems to have done the trick
as above,
i have a leak into the passenger footwell that seems to be coming from the scuttle panel i think, tipping a bucket of water over the top of the windscreen causes the footwell to become wet, so i guess the scuttle panel rather than the wheelarch or sill drains.
thing is, i have...
im fairly sure my passengver footwell leak is caused from something under the scuttle panel.
thing is how do you get the wipers off? ive taken off the 3 13mm nuts on each of the arms and the arms are staying firmly on the car, no amount of pulling is shifting them.

i just fitted a Cupra R one to my Phase 1, fits like a treat, just need to cut the sides down by a couple of inches, but the curve of the bumper and splitter are great,
costs only £25 from Seat, plus a handful of self tappers
as title, i have a leak in the passenger footwell, driving me crazy.
if you were sat in the seat the wetest part is right where your right foot would be, next to teh centre consol.
ive checked the sill drains and cleaned out the n/s wheel arch and checked the drain from the scuttle, all...
Hi,
I have an early 172, im guessing the engine manage / emissions bulb has been taken out or blown as it doesnt iluminate when i start the car.
the car runs totally fine. it has a stainless exhaust, but the cat appears to be there, but whether it was de catted at any time previously i...
Just bought a 172, loving it, however the silver door handles are really grubby, ive tried loads of different cleaners, with limited success.
any secrets for cleaning these up and getting the nice silver back?
cheers
Hi,
My speedo is very hit and miss, sometimes it works fine upto 80-85 then it goes to zero and stays there, other times it doesnt work at all.
is this just the gearbox sensor? if so how easy is this to change and where best to order one
cheers
Hi, new here and to clio ownership, just bought a phase 1 172, loving it but couple gremlins to resolve.
My central locking doesnt work, need ideas.
i have replaced the battery in the fob, yes the little light comes on, but nothing happens.
if i manually lock the car each door only locks...

im not worried about keeping the sterring wheel controls.
