    172 Track Car Engine rebuild tips

    Fit ARP rod bolts while you're there. Could be one of the causes for letting go, especially at high rpm.

    Alternator fitting guide Clio 182

    Jubilee method isn't that bad if you have a heavy duty one and preshape it. Imagine there must be a fair bit of pressure involved to lever the alternator back in place to be able to get the top bolt in.

    Clio 2 182 BC racing coilover

    ACF-50 is ok if you keep topping it up. XCP Rustblocker performs better in real world tests.

    The new tool thread

    Not bad, but says next generation, yet they look like old models. If you want the latest, these are a little bit more - https://www.powertoolmate.co.uk/power-tools/milwaukee/cordless-powertool-kits/milwaukee-m18fpp2a3-302p-fuel-m18fpd3-combi-m18fid3-impact-twin-kit-2-x-3ah-high.htm

    Car not starting - suspected fueling issue

    Get it tested or just replace. Cheap enough for a decent Bosch S4 from Tayna https://www.tayna.co.uk/car-batteries/bosch/s4001/

    Clio 182 Turbo

    Not sure on ring specs, I'll see if I've got any documentation on it.

    Clio 182 Turbo

    For the head bolts it's 20Nm from the middle outwards. Usually do the first 20Nm and let it settle for a bit and then recheck. Then do 180° if you haven't got a torque angle wrench.

    Leaky sump again!! Help please 😂

    3 times suggests it's not the sump, surely?
  9. Mr Trailer Man

    Help needed with 172 as trackday tomorrow.

    Check coilpack and throttle body wiring/plugs. Someone at the track will probably be able to sort it, there always a Clio about. Where are you on?

    Is that a random wheel bolt on the front, or is it coming loose?

    You could get that pointing straight enough by eye surely.

    1.2 16v fault - I'm stumped!

    As if you had 3 s**t ones 😂

    Radiator- good/bad

    I'd send it back.

    Cambelt timing tools

    They'd definitely bend without the pulley locking tool 😅

    He's probably not used to the swivel hub setup. He'll soon see for himself if he was to turn the steering.

    Cambelt timing tools

    Don't get the pulley locking tool with Laser kit.

    Tell the tester to stop being a dickhead and use his brain. You have them routed correctly. This is factory location.

    UCH service

    No mate. If it's a fault with the speedo clock, it could be a faulty solder joint or something internal. As Jon said, the only UCH fault out of the list is potentially the wipers.

    The Speedo/Rev clocks

    Rear brake disc wear

    If it looks like Matt's picture then it's normal.

    If it doesn't work, just swear at it more 😂

    Try the jack trick next time, enough load on it that it's almost picking the car up and it usually does the job.

    UCH service

    Yeah Diesel Pump Repair are the ones to use.

    Do you have an impact gun? Won't need to counter hold the TRE thread with an Allen if you have a gun to buzz them off. If they spin just stick a jack under the bottom of the ball joint and add some preload.

    Quite a list that 😂

    Rear brake disc wear

    Yeah that's why i've asked if he's got a picture to make sure.

    Rear brake disc wear

    The OP years ago was on about the inside and around a 1/3rd of the disc being rust which isn't right. Should be no more than yours there.
  28. Mr Trailer Man

    Rear brake disc wear

    Yeah that's normal.
  29. Mr Trailer Man

    Rear brake disc wear

    Have you got a picture of them?

    Rear brake disc wear

    Having had 10 years to think about it, i think his caliper/sliders might have started to seize 😅
