my 19 16v had 149k on the clock, but a 180k engine that had the death rattle.

theres nothing between the 182 and 172 ive found, only top speed

I nicked 3 or 4 tubes of autosol from work lol

strange my 172 isnt torque steering at all anymore!?

Limited slip differential, basically it spins one wheel for a certain abount of time, then locks so both wheels are turning at the same pace.

And will cost you alot more.

it may be able too, but why doi you want 1.1k?

Its in the box. Just change the box oil, 3.4 litres goes in it iirc, use descent stuff im running amsoil fully synthetic in mine.

I drive a mk1 172, lowered, with some allooys fror thev moment, sure you will have seen it about!

Im in bridgwater

My mums 4x4 can turn around in the drive and i have to make a 3-point turn of it!

vvc is variable valve control. same thing, and no you cant feel it. you feel a kick at 5000 which is the cams coming into optimum profile.

My 172 is lowered 40mm on apex's can get over huge speed bumps that my mates xr2i lowered 50mm hit the exhaust. It only grounded out when i had the splitter on it.

Im not sure if the clios A/C fan(for sensing cabin air temp) works constantly?

Lol you worried me! The VVT Just operates on oil pressure on the Pulley, adjusting it like a vernier pulley! It switches over at 1400rpm at 800mb vacuum.NOT t 4-5000 like its sometimes said.

it'll be specific to the car.

hmm, ive got one somewhere im certin of it. my dad bought it for me so i dont know how much it cost!

ebay it!

TBH if you havent got a guage, a rough guide to set it until youve got a guage. The longest gap between pullies(on the energy lump its at the front) twist the belt, if its more than 90degrees, then it needs to be tighter! But get a guage asap!

Where in devon are you based? Im in somerset and can check it out if you want? But anyway, if the marks were in the right position before you turned the engine and the belt didnt slip when you turned it your fine.

^^ i notice this alot! some days it'll pull as fast to 120 as it does to 60, others it seems to take alot longer!

Iirc its about £250 for a new xenon!

^^lol

mines on 51k have hit 140mph a couple of times, and is regularly doing 120-130, and shes still pulling well!

^^ if your going to do it do it properly not a bad attempt like mine! But anyway unlucky, atleast your ok! Bit of a shock i bet?
