yep its been plugged up now, its deffo been drilled though and i cant see why you would do it, its not like its going to full a sensor into how much boost the turbos producing to get more power from it, because its before the turbo

also found this little hole in the pipe coming from the airbox, is there ment to be a sensor in here or has someone drilled this for some reason?

right guys had it on the motorway again tonight and its killing me, it will not go over 80mph at all unless you get a hill. it pulls to 3k then you hear the turbo stop boosting, take your foot off the accelerator and floor it again and the turbo spools, boosts for about 1-2 seconds and then...

in theory it works, but to be honest the 90 degree bend is a bigger problem. possibly worth it if your fitting a pannel filter and samco bend or doing away with the 90 degree bend

gearbox out and back in is a good what 3 hour job anyway? atleast, be as well changing clutch while your at it then you have the price of gearbox oil on top of that too

its deffo the rear dampers, they handle brilliant in the wet with decent tyres and decent rear dampers. its a common fault, mine stepped out on a roundabout at 20mph when it was dry but greazy thats when i knew they were gone, look under the back of the car and you will see oil on them. only...

they run fine in my experiance :S

theres a company that sells them for the 1.2 16v cant remember who it was though they also made a sports cat, it wasnt k-tec though! i beleive they were about £80 problem as josh said is 2nd hand cats are worth a good bit in material, i beleive my local scrappy gets £50 per cat so they always...

god knows how you feel its frustrating me thinking about it! lol

Not an injector is it?

yeah i was told the 65 was apparently quicker than the 1.2 16v, it feels more torquey than ours but not quicker

2002 mk2 ph2 1.2 16v - Now Sold :( 2003 Iceberg MK2 172 2001 mk2 ph2 DCi 65

weird one, its starting 100% no problem there. and sometimes its perfect pulls right thru and others it cuts boost always at 3k though which happens at 80mph in 5th so overtaking isnt easy on motorway

apparently it wasnt starting before i bought it but was sent to a diesel specialist and the bill came to over £300 but guy didnt know much about what was done, something to do with injectors he said

no welding needed, yeah unbolt it and then rebolt it! easy :) might need a new cat to manifold gasket and a new clamp for cat to centre section but might get away without it

my mpg didnt change was still balls, get better mpg on my 172

yeah trolley jack handle rammed up it is what i done lol

thats what i done with mine! went well

freed mine up a good bit, pulled well and sounded better, that was with an aftermarket cat back exhaust though!

dont make any difference to performance, dont fit as snug as the standard ones but they look "pretty"

yeah it actually seems to be getting better, filled it with a tank of v-power diesel today and took it out a long blast taking it up near 5k (well past the power band) just to give it a good thrash. got fully synth oil coming for it and a new oil filter along with a K&N pannel filter see how it...

the guide will give you a rough idea, its the same just a bit harder to get the 182 out and in due to space. roughly.... unbolt 4 subframe bolts, unbolt the gearbox to subframe mount, unbolt the dogbone mount remove the cat lower the subframe down on a jack, undo the pinch bolt on the...

the wee bargain dci is running brilliant apart from one little problem, its dropping off boost at 3k revs, you hear the turbo dropping off and the car stops pulling then at around 3.3/3.4k revs you hear it spooling up again. had the EGR valve off it yesterday which was covered in soot! gave it...

exhaust or inlet? ive done both

im £1100 fully comp at 19 with admiral on my 172

i had my 172 doing 130 on the testdrive lol, guy let me take it out myself too at 18!!!

Ordering Buckets and harnesses for the 172 on thursday, need some ideas on what to go for?! so lets see your pics! id prefer black ones to be honest dont want them to stick out to much, and none of these gay recliners either! lol

fuel gage went down to the red line today ( in the 172 this means 30 or so miles left, petrol light coming on any second) checked the computer to see how many miles i had left, 160 lol)

yeah dynamique imo is the only one to go for, extremes are similar but not as good, expression and authentique not worth looking at unless the price is really low. 1.2 16v is more dci65 pace, id say the dci80 is more 1.4 16v pace, probably keep up ok with a 1.6 16v
