I ve got to get new rear discs and and rear shocks put on in a couple of weeks at jms so maybe get tom and james to have a look then

Tracking is fine aswell. The car and steering wheel is so violent though its got to be something serious. And its only at about above 60mph.

OK had wheels balanced, bearings are all fine, wheels on securely, all we found was a rer shock pissing out! I honestly have no idea what is causeing it can anyone help???

Mines a Ph1 172 as well. Hopefully my old mans work can get them through the parts department cheap then i ll give one of the mechanics some cash in hand to do it after work. I have twated some nasty pot holes recently down some country lanes and probably doesnt help having these apex springs...

weird that its only done it on the motorway and 3 times, but its clearly speed related. Hopefully it will be something obvious and i wont have to take it to a renault spechialist

This expensive??????

I ll mention all these things tomorrow morning and wil let you know the outcome cheers guys

had the wire checked and there is a current so got to be the bulb holder, gave it a good scrape but no joy, think i ll get hold of Joh at clisprare tomorrow. Bit worried that one of my wheels might come off at the moment lol

I think it might be the bulb holder, could see abit of muck and rust where the bulb sits when i put the new one in

wheel bolts, weights, balancing bearings nice list for the lads to check on tomorrow

Also wanted to say thanks for all your replys guys, bloody number plate light has gone out now and a new bulb didnt do the trick, looks like its another problem lol

My old man is sales manager at a volvo dealership so its going in tomorrow for them to have a look, are the wheel bearings obvious if there nackered?? As i could get the wheels balanced then i would have to go down the motorway for abit and hope it doesnt do it to test it.

Sounds fun! In away thats kind of what it felt like a wheel that was wobbling like crazy but then stopping. A few of my mates have said wheel bearings and because of the rubbing noise when hard turning maybe the wheel has moved a fair bit. Price of a wheel bearing?

Im a proper mechanical biff anyone shed any light on any the above?

I thought the wheels needed aligning/balancing the first time, but surely it wouldnt do it that heavily

That even crossed my mind, ive noticed when i turn in a hard circle or in a multistory i can here a clicking clunking as if the wheel is hitting rubbing against something BUT i doubt that would cause what is happening on the motorway because of how violently the steering wheel is shaking it...

Just came back on the Motorway and it did it again mainly over 55 60 mph. S**t scary feels like the car is gonna get thrown about all over the place, strange????? Cheers DrRollo, any other ideas before i take it in tomorrow

Hi guys, I was on the motorway earlier and the steering wheel began to shake really violently, almost as if I had a blown tyre it was trying to force me off the road, took quite some effort to hold onto be honest. I slowed down to about 40 then it stopped. This happened te other day but...

What size are the front wiper blades on a 2001 172 ph1??? Cheers guys

My mate just had this problem with a two week old Fifa game. Took it back to the shop and they said its a laser scratch caused by the `xbox and not there fault! They said it normally happens when the xbox is one a carpet or something soft, and it should be on a hard surface laid on its side, he...

?????????

So no drilling just swap??? you promise?? LOL

Someone please help us! LOL;)

I didnt think it was a direct swap???

Are you selling the kits Kev or just saying they are HB3????

Anyone know the best place to get one, thought someone use to sell them on here??

Any advice on fitting this would be great!;)

Alot of people liking to keep these standar you wouldnt like to see what i have done to mine, i would say it looks more exclusive. Tom and James at JMS have seen the car and no what direction im going with it. Yes i have the standard wheels still on but they arent silver anymore ;)

JMS do a good deal if your near them think £215 for HC and Ferodo fitted
