nope should still pull strong, deffo a problem there

sorry i was thinking 172 there!

decent job upwords of £1500/£2,000 to do it properly probably!

depends what you use the car for? quarter mile then probably. otherwise i wouldnt bother

i was in agony for 2 days lol using all they muscles im not used to using!

mine done that when hard cornering when the front and rear brakes were needing replaced, think its possibly it trying to tell you the brake fluids low?

1.2s pop like mad with cat back exhausts!

yep thats what i done just chop a bit off the alignment tool and it JUST fits in the gap, ive got a few pics somewhere if you need any

i changed a few 1.2 clutches with box still in the car not sure how easy or possible it is on a 172 though

i used to do 1.2 boxes in about 5/6 hours never done a 172 one though. but think their probably near the same

100bhp is just a number. i had full exhaust inc decat, decent filter and air feed, fully stripped out and that little car went like f**k for what it was lol as many will back me up on!

i had them on my old 1.2 16v and even under hard track use they were fine with braided line and decent fluid. got them on the 172 and not had it on track yet but on hard road use they start to fade but not that bad for a fast road pad" low brake dust and last ages

wouldnt bother to much about it to be honest, as long as theirs bumpstops to stop the damper being killed it'll be fine as long as it doesnt get to dirty under there!

hi mate, yeah i had a quick read thru it before i started then used your guide for disconnecting the steering colum from the rack (as its different from the way you do it on the 1.2!)was a great help cheers!

1.2 16v clios are SOHC, never worked on any other 16v engine thats been SOHC though! SOHC is just the same except 1 cam controls both inlet and exhaust

finished work at 10pm on tuesday after a 13 hour shift and decided to fit my 182 manifold and decat lol worked on it from 11 till 7am, 8 hour shift on the thing lol not the easyest job on axel stands! anyway..... the noise with the k-tec recessed exhaust is mental, still sounds quiet about...

unbolt the backbox and pull it off. unbolt the 2 13mm bolts at the cat, remove the centre section and backbox from the car new 1 if its brand new will come with all clamps and fittings, only thing id get is a tube of exhaust assembly paste and possibly a rear exhaust mount if its shagged...

i had a 1.2 16v dynamique, was awesome! lol

k-tec is there own exhaust not a 182 exhaust, just looks like a 182. genuine 182 exhaust wont fit a 172 as it goes thru the spare wheel well.

bump up my roadtax because my car pollutes the air, well ill get my moneys worth, take a peak down my cat ;)

yes, aparently they are better finished on 182s but not 100% sure on that. 182 manifold isnt really about power, its more about increased torque low down in the revs, im fitting mine with decat on friday 182 has different manifold, free flowing cat, different ecu map and better exhaust...

space wise i can see it fitting as it squeezes in a 172 bay only problem being the gearbox size, but it should fit in a 197 BUT... the cost will be huge, and why butcher a fairly new car fitting a different engine, maby its just me but id sell up and buy the quicker car in the first place!

my mates has averaged 42.5mpg over 2 tanks of fuel!! i cant get mine over 36! lol

ive had mine for a year, bought it mint condition with just over 20k on the clock 4yr old. in the last year its had.... new exhaust lambda sensor 2 rear shocks all 4 engine mounts new battery its never let me down or left me stranded just niggles that ive replaced eventually

yep our driving school ones are doing this too!! lucky our tyres are included in the payments for the cars though

just get a cheap cat from ebay and smash its c**t in, thats what i done with my old 1.2 16v as said above, use new bolts and it'll be fine when changing

hi guys, at work so cant phone renault, going in 2moro 2 order a few bits and need part numbers and prices please, car is a 2003 172 Both botom arms both track rod ends O/s drive shaft Both front dampers Cheers

ill check that cheers, its defo one or the botom mounts i think though due 2 gearstick movement, ill double check the 4th subframe mount

all bolts are fine, everything is fitted properly, dogbone mount is perfect. fred, powerflex mount isnt fitted anymore and all mounting points been replaced so cant the problem being related to that.
