Coded to 1 ECU so you can only map 1 car! Fault finder works on any car tho.

The car ran lumpy for a while after map, but jus on idle! The manual says it's cos the ECU is learning the knock values etc again as u've basically reset it. Runs 100% now. As for increases, I haven't had mine on the RR yet, but the mid range torque is noticably better and she seems alot...

There are loads of people on here who have done the Rs-Tuner Map Including myself. It's so simple to use and the support is brilliant. Henk's instruction manual guides you through the whole process and makes it so clear to understand. If you sign up on www.fastchip.nl and go to the downloads...

Get the fast-chip 1 and u'll have beer tokens left over!!!

Standard 172 Plugs are NGK! They're the only 1's worth using!

Yep keep me posted ^^ That looks tasty!

Bump, anyone?

Anyone know how much a Steering wheel for my 172 will set me back, the thumb grip on mine has ripped! Thanks, Stu

Thats wot I thought! Alot of expense nd it's only a 1.2! U'll not be goin hard enough to need bigger brakes!

Did this on mine! The wire goin to da sensor was broken at only makin a connection sometimes!

Bulbs for the 172 are a phillips D2S 4300K IIRC! Something like this wud do! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/D2S-XENON-BULB-NEW-UNUSED-ORIGINAL-PART-MADE-BY-OSRAM_W0QQitemZ150250522716QQihZ005QQcategoryZ72235QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

As above, need something to use when drying my Iceberg 172! Thanks, Stu

Tell him to check again as it should be listed as a kit! Wheel size won't matter, u may have to use a lower profile tyre if you don't have enough clearance! Looks to be plenty o room around that black 1 above!

The 1.2 Mk1's all had solid discs as standard, so y would you put vented on? Will the caliper take the wider disc? I wouldn't have thought they wud fit!

I had it left over after I sold the Blue Clio, only had a little bit left in the pot, so just using it up! Leaves a nice depth of shine, that I didn't think I could get on a silver car! But wouldn't be spending £500 on it jus for Silver! Will get something cheaper next!

Would a Diesel Clio alternator fit? Diesel 1's are normally more powerful!

NGK PFR6E-10

What car is it? If it's jus a straight swap any competent mechanic should be able to do it. I gave the guy a hand to do mine and I dare say I could now do it myself!

It's the cooling down after being in the oven that hardens the paint. The paint will continue to cure for a couple o weeks after painting, but bearing in mind the car was probably painted in the factory about 3 weeks before you get the car, it's as hard as it'll ever get. As said above, you can...

The wax will only protect the finish from rain etc. I find the more expensive waxes last alot longer, I only polish/wax my car every 3 or so months. I finish off with Zymol Destiny Glaze as it lasts at least 3-4 months! Most cheaper waxes are gone in no time! Have recently tried the dodo juice...

Use a microfibre to remove the flies and stuff on the front of the car!

You can tell the difference! It all depends how gud u r at using it! If you don't know what ur doing, then cheaper waxes/polishes will work just as well! If you know what ur at, u won't see the swirls cos there aren't any, not just because it's silver!

They are both CAL files! U need rst Files if ur only matchin the 1st number!

Shines up really well if you know what ur at! Def Clay it first! 90% of poor finishing is down to poor prep! If it's clean b4 you start then it'll come up well! I cleaned mine a few weeks ago, clayed, 3000 Grit sanded, compounded, polished, sealed and waxed! Spent 2 days on it and could believe...

Ur car will have file 8000 7A** or 78** If u read the manual for fast chip u need to match these numbers! ie it doesn't matter what the end 2 numbers are!

AFAIK K-tec do a decat for the 172? Why not just buy that? http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=2034

Yep about 250 should do the whole lot. Depends where you take it! Most insurance approved Bodyshops are 250 per pannel.

U'll not damage the bearings! I had to beat the life outa mine to get them off!
