why did I click on this, im looking for another now. I miss having a DCI in my life its been over 2 years

your logic is flawed, the fuel light is telling you that you need more fuel yet there could be 100 miles worth in it during mpg changes. So if you reset ur trip accelerate hard so you get 5mpg, your computer says 25 miles of range left and pops the fuel light on, does it go back off when you...

Bingo, fuel light comes on with a gallon left in the tank, you average 25mpg or there abouts, which means it comes on when your car recons theres 25 miles left, going by the ammount in thr tank. Same way my 200 light came on at 21 miles ;)

And what mpg do you get? ;)

right so if im doing 10mpg on track, my fuel lights going to come on when ive got 25 miles left, yet ive actually got 100 miles left in the tank for my drive home at 40mpg?

it will come on when you have a certain amount of fuel left in the tank, not by miles

your not going to get a set number of miles from the fuel light it depends how you drive it, in a 172 for example ive done 40 miles on the light and also ran out of fuel after 12 miles before!

non Bluetooth stereo has a 4 way circle button in the middle Bluetooth has a knob in the middle

no bump stops will make it catch the bumper brackets under hard cornering and arch liners during light cornering. I had this problem

that sounds exactly like what I want! and I can have the standard ecu mapped to run the 197/200 cams however the dephaser will either be active or not rather than continuous as per the 197/200 is that right?

thanks for the input so far guys. awesome conversion that turbo one basically all I want is something that pulls and revs like the 7800rpm, smooth 200 engine, but in a mk2 shell, on standard management so it drives like it left the factory.

Not just the vvt setup just generally the smooth high reving nature of the engine which im not sure an rs2 would give me although an awesome torque spread and same or more power

I miss the smooth high reving F4R in my 200 and fancy a project, I was looking at turbo charging but yet to find someone who has a reliable one from reading about, I know fitting the 200 engine to the 172 isn't an easy task due to different gearboxes but what about building a hybrid? would I be...

I would have left the original engine in since its the better engine? (bigger exhaust ports)

102k on mine still original as far as I know, I changed the engine in my car a month before I bought it and tried to talk my mate into fitting a new clutch but he didn't want to spend the cash, wish I had just paid for it myself now haha

I know what you mean, as if this heat wave we are having isn't causing me enough sleeping problems. I got this price from adam last week hub £114 inc vat per side they come bare with no bearing. bearing £55.69 inc vat per side hope that helps!

cheers buddy, bit of a trek but ill give them a call

no it makes them make a stupid noise when you lift off the throttle. no gains to be had either I tried one on my 100 out of curiosity

None of my local dealers are getting demonstrators its shocking, they tell me it has launch control and does 0-60 in 4.5 seconds yet no demo car lol booking a test drive for my week off in the fiesta.

noisey pully will most likely be the dephaser, youtube it and see if it sounds the same

welcome, where about in central Scotland are you

I love that shape laguna too, would love a 2.0t 205hp one with the F4RT or a DCi175 one

because Renault spend a considerable amount developing the bushes for the car, and when new the cars drive brilliantly so that's how I wanted it to drive :)

im trying to build the ultimate fast road 172 at the moment, so far ive done... genuine lower arms (later model with extra castor) genuine track rods and rod ends genuine cup dampers all round genuine top mounts genuine ARB bushes genuine fresh engine and exhaust mounts I also fitted 2 new...

welcome along!

brilliant value that! turbo hatches are cool!

sounds like the usual Renault dealers!!!! and they expect us to pay £20k for a clio 200 EDC to be treated like this lol!!

looks good id raise the rear rather than lower the front and possibly a small set of spacers

look at the fuel lines in the engine bay whats happening? full of bubbles? you will occasionally see some. there should be a primer down beside the fuel filter on the opposite side of the battery tray from the battery, pump that a few times then turn it over, might take 10-20 seconds turning...

no news on a software update or something for the gearbox to improve its shift response to the padals?
