    Possible Oil Leak? Help Needed!

    If its leaking out the cam end seal then its just a case of prising that one out, cleaning the face up if necessary and knocking a new one in. Although i've never had one leak yet and it looks properly fitted.

    Possible Oil Leak? Help Needed!

    Can't really tell anything from that picture at all tbh.

    Washer jet fluid drains as quick as I fill it

    More likely to be a split bottle if its draining out that fast. Its probably coming out the skuttle drain on the passenger side which dumps it behind the arch liner.

    Should do unless the temp sensor is totally shagged/disconnected.

    bargain 172

    Maxi kit would be tidy without the stickers, bodies are a nice addition too just wants a little tidying up and far less price.

    Old Owners Thread

    Still miss mine to a degree, hence on the lookout for a Ph1 to track ****.

    Does this sound normal ? *vid*

    Thats just the injectors, nothing to worry about. My old 172 used to sound like that all the time, it had the clickyiest injectors in the world.

    interior clips, part number?

    Going to need a pic for that one, can't picture it.

    Dampers all fine?

    turbo powered F7R and gearbox failure????

    Thought only the later 182 JC5 box had the bolted diff retainer? As people have had circlip problems with 172s i'm sure Ali did off the top of my head.

    turbo powered F7R and gearbox failure????

    JB3 then, would say its fudged.

    will a double din fit in a mk3?

    No chance.

    uneven ride height

    The springs in the right position? The renault ones have a paint mark on them that goes to the bottom and the rear iirc.

    Back box fell off, where to get a new rear section

    Pretty sure they're quite expensive, most people end up going for an aftermarket stainless one instead.

    Renewell quote :o !!!!!!!

    The first years no claims makes a big difference, making a claim in that first year isn't going to help you much. You might find it a little cheaper but not much.

    aux change

    I changed the cam and aux belt on my 172 in may as well :(. Oh well all done and gone now.

    aux change

    Yeh they were that sort of money, then all of a sudden it went up to £110 or so around april.

    Changing gear and RPM - How do you do it?

    I agree with T5PHY, and I think you'll find that the coolant temp comes up faster than the oil temp does. I run the car for at least 15mins before giving it any great ammount of throttle/load.

    aux change

    Its 5yrs/36k as DrRollo says and belts full stop shouldn't be retensioned.

    Would you buy a car from the bloke (ebay auction)

    The adverts full of s**t, but the car looks very nice and tidy.
  26. B

    aux change

    The aux belt should've been changed then as they shouldn't be retensioned.

    Using alot of fuel at normal drives.

    You can't use the gauge as a reference, its not linear. The top 1/3 or stop drops really quick then it hangs around in the middle for ages.

    getting twitchy about cam belt =/

    And you can't really determine a belts condition visually either.
  29. B

    aux change

    Most probably wants a cambelt as well if its a 172. Even the last ones on an 04 plate will be nearly 5yrs old now.

    Changing gear and RPM - How do you do it?

    In the 172 used to change up circa 6800rpm when giving it a lashing. These days I don't worry so much as I now have torque :evil:.
