im a mellow chilled out guy, ill deal with the service manager personally though!

182 manifold is the best mod i done on my old ph2 172 paired with a K-tec 2.5" link pipe decat. drivability was much better

Update, ill put a final post in the dealers section once this full process is sorted. so it went in today what i hoped for the last time to have the high level brake light sorted on the spoiler. got it back, spoiler not fitted correctly, massive gap at the roof. it goes back in monday.... lol...

lol at deoderant can vid, legend!

how u feel on 17s is how i feel everytime i drive one on 16s. Driving possition didnt bother me for years but now im used to my GT i need to get a set of buckets and small wheel for the 172 i think

my GT is solid!

few 1.4's going to get blew up in this thread lol

what a rip off that sounds, i just paid £70 at progrip in falkirk to have eibach camber bolts supplied, fitted and a fast road setup on their hunter system took john 2 hours as he was talking me everything he was doing and educating me on suspension setup lol but he just charged me 1hrs labour...

i was close to doing it with my old 100 but traded it before i got round to it, needs bottom arms, ARB, hubs, brakes and suspension so not quite as easy as it sounds but not exactly hard!

from memory the K4M airbox is right at the back above the exhaust manifold, id look at running a 172/182 or even better a ph1 172 airbox setup with a custom inlet hose

stick some good oil and filter in it, air filter, cabin filter, fuel filter and deffo change the gearbox oil, my box failed at around 160k and the oil was horrible that came out it, i recon i could have saved it had i changed the oil 15/20k before. strip the EGR valve off it and clean it out (we...

yeah, also told me my high level brake light wasnt in stock so couldnt be changed, then when my mrs went to pick the car up (they expected me) they were talking with each other about the cars that were in etc and one of the girls said to the other "that cars done just needs re booked in for its...

yeah thats the one, so thats what it does then, i was sure the radiator fan connector was also on it so couldnt work out what it actually was, did have 2 little vacume pipes on it, and yeah ass you say little ribber mount that pushes down onto a peg. total idiots, not what you expect when...

was sitting at the lights a few days ago and thought the car sounded strange, could hear a vibration, thought ill look into it when i get home and couldnt find anything, had stopped doing it, assumed it was in my head and left it at that. put the air con on today and again loud banging noise...

petrol VW's are pish unless they are turbo'd!! my sister has a 1.4 16v 100hp lupo and the engine is a nightmare

theee best car ever made. (says the guy whos dci has probably lost £5000 in the last year) lol

you mean a clio dci?

just shows though that plus the fact they ticked service indicator reset when they didnt reset it, that clearly its just been a ticking exercise rather than a proper going over as it should be. granted the car is only a year old and 18k miles so its probably spot on anyway, but if your paying...

if i had spare cash id like to put a 200 engine in my 172, i just dont have the time for the effort involved these days!

few hundred quid deposit, massive loan to cover new fast car 1yrs insurance and hero mods. = me @ 17, was worth it lol

they also ticked to say my automatic transmission fluid system had no leaks or something along they lines LOL

its years since i played with water cooling, infact last time i did was a Socket A AMD Athlon 2500-M chip when i was about 15! how quiet are pumps etc these days and how small a setup can you use? basically i need something silent/ultra quiet as my internet machine, im currently running a fully...

bet he wouldnt charge £160 though lol ;)

aftermarket was out, standard was back in for the service

i find my ph1 a nightmare on the motorway but it does have a loud exhaust and stiff suspension lol, i avoid motorways in it! on the rare ocassion i am on them in it though i find myself doing stupid speeds lol. i was doing an average of 30k a year this time last year thats why i bought the GT...

im with him ^ why wait years for new car lol

you had it back to them? different car but much the same box, my GT has no problems, box always feels spot on even from cold

spend, spend, spend. savings boring

i do replace the air filter myself it has a pipercros pannel filter in it, however as the car is brand new, i expect it serviced to renault guidelines which i was sure they hadn't.

ive found this too but usually a fresh set of front dampers sorts that!
