Agree...it seems Renault servicing is pretty c**p. As a lot of people have said....check it out, you can usually tell if it's had a hard life or not.

Yozzasport all the way....those EBC discs on the K-tec setup aren't very good.

You need to find out the ID of the induction elbow to the airbox/filter assembly.....I know the airboxes are different on the 172 Mk1 and 2 but not sure about the inlet hose.

c**p....avoid.

Look on Demon Tweeks site....lots of crankcase filters on there by K&N and Green.

Agree on the dust....also a problem with grooved discs:(

Good function but giveaway is the desaturated colours in the surrounding areas of the photograph.

Noooooooooo Fook me that's bad

Yeah...that sounds like a good idea. Friend of mine did it on his Capri....cut holes in the bottom section and secured ducting in with fibreglass which were routed to the front of the car:D

I always thought the Hillpower ones had the inlet in for the crankcase breather?

Not bad.....better in anything except that WR blue though.

Definately go for the Trophy. If your not up for that just go for the titanium:D

Good result I take it this scum must have a record already if they matched his blood with their records.

Would text that but I don't own a hairdrier:D

Cheers I did see the triangular piece of trim on the inside of the door but wasn't sure it popped off or not...do you have to prise it off using a tol though?....seemed pretty well clipped on to me.

Anyone?.....is it easy or in typical Renault style will you have to take the whole door trim off to get at the fixings etc.

I've just totalled one of my wing mirrors on my Mk2 172 Does anyone know how to remove them?....I can see plenty of trim around them on the inside but no screws or signs of how to get them off. Any help much appreciated

I'd leave well alone myself Up to you though....I've heard the spark plug works a treat.

Kunts I'd definately write a letter of complaint...sounds like these people need a rocket up the a**

I went for a Green cotton filter......mainly for the price as it's cheaper than the ITG.

Interesting results...seems like a huge gain to me. As far as the oil goes use a good 5/40w all year round.

Ah yes..I see the good old acoustic valve there:D I wonder how many people are going to rip it out of their brand new 197 to be replaced by some washer drier hose lol

Interesting read Mark

Agree..it seems the car modifying manufacturers can sell ice to the eskimos.....a lot of it is marketing flannel. You only have to read a few treads on here where people are wasting money on stuff but are convinced it's going to make a difference to see it.

The airbox has two feeds though, the other with no valve in. The result it the filter can easily flow enough air.

Looks quite nice:D

You have to remove it to get the feed down through the gap and to the fog.

I've used EBC Turbogroove drilled and slotted discs before and found them to be worse than the std discs.

Why is it restrictive though?.....the airbox has two feeds doesn't it? Just would be good to have some definatice proof that removig this actually improves the running of the car. Think I'm going to leave mine in situ for the time being.

Not power mods but suspension & brakes will probably make the most difference for your money.
