yeah it has mate, im that sick of cars after it i just want another diesel to nip about in, really like the megane coupe dci160 but im not buying another renault, and im definately not buying another car from arnold clark!
family business is now doing the same moving away from renault and...
update on this, car went back into dealership. bonnet now fits, exhaust still blows, car still pulls all over the road, car is extremely dangerous under hard braking, lurches massively to the left snatching the wheel from your hand, passengers side disc has a big lip on both sides, drivers is...
app support will come with time, remember when i first got my N8, app support was very limited, now ive yet to find an app that any of my mates use on android or iOS that i cant get for Symbian
he has grey xenons hes now got black ones, dci owners have so much extra money from their low fuel bills they can afford to do crazy s**t like that (hence his recaros and surprized he doesnt have sachs yet ;) )
i was emotionally attached to my first 172, it was hard to let it go but i was doing loads of miles, had my DCi and really needed the money more, so i let it go. wouldnt say id buy it back though.
only car id ever buy back is my original first clio 1.2 just purely for the memories with it, my...
Re: 2002 Clio Sport 172 (equipment)
i beleive the only option on a ph2 172 was a 6 disc changer, my one never had one. altho it had the wire so possibly removed at some point
EDIT: sorry sat nav was an option too
who said the car was being put under load or red lined? a car can have a flat spot at any rpm/load.
they do usually have odd flat spots for the first 30-60 seconds but should be fine after that, ambient temperature usually makes it better/worse
na the standard paper ph1 filter is a better design too, much bigger with more surface area, so imo not as much of a restriction as the smaller flat ph2 filter, which with the same engine, any extra air flow will be more of a benefit.
paper filters arnt bad when brand new but apparently foam...
cars now finally running good, just going in this week to finally get a dodgey caliper replaced so it finally brakes in a straight line again, then it will be running sweet! never to be returned to arnold clark ever again! f*****s!!
looking at my RR graph from yesterday, lets not use this thread to dispute results etc but by looking at the graph its self, the car hasn't started to tail off even by the rev limiter, so looking at it i recon i would benefit from a few extra hundred RPM
thoughts?

just the cops being c***s as usual they done him for his plates not 100% sure on the issue but hes been done for them on a few ocassions and every time had it threw out when he fights it as they are legal. sounds like he just likes fighting them for the...
i sheared one a few years back too, it seems quite common on cars running uprated gearbox mounts (i was running a polly bushed 172 mount - it was on my 1.2 16v) i always put it down to the stress of less play in the mount. possibly just a s**t setup only having one lower mount if yours has done...
