Re: My Ph1 172 track sl*g Progress Thread Looking good as ever. Just to add on the fan side of things, the AC is the only thing that uses the low speed fan function iirc. Theres two relays to control the fan, one puts 12v though a resistor first which is mounted on the left top of the fan...

Too many + 99% of people wouldn't be bothered.

13mm ones or the bigger ones that bolt the carrier to the hub? You'll want proper bolts for them anyway imo, so it'll be a renault job.

Thats all fine and well with a £300 shitbox but not so good when he stands to loose £*k.

What the caliper to carrier bolts?

Can you get the caliper off, make sure its the brake? Then you can see if you can get any movement on the piston if it is.

This the rear drum or the front disc?

Probably something like scratchx to lift the ink.

I'd debate that tbh as long as you don't loose your ncb. Keeping in the same idea of keeping a 1.2 until your 21, I bet there isn't much difference between it being cheaper in the first place due to fronting compared to the reduction in price after gaining ncb over the years. When I started to...

As said mean that somethings open (door/boot/bonnet) check around, a switch is probably broken. The bonnet one looks particularly vunerable.

Have you tried adrian flux? I just renewed my 172 insurance for £1300 at 20/3yrncb. No one else could get close.

Fronting is all fine an good but even when your 21 for example you'll still get quoted high prices for decent cars as you've got no ncb. Which is fine if you want to drive a 1.2 for the rest of the your line.

Well remember theres a big difference between changing the oil and the cambelt, and as i've said you need the proper locking tools to pin the cams and crank.

You need the proper locking tools for the K4J too. Don't get it done by some money backstreet garage, they'll probably screw it up.

Yes he did now you mention it, he had a fully loaded 1.2 iirc. He'll tell you how much it cost :eek:.

Which ones are they? I'd be interested in taking them off you if there in good condition etc, pm me ;).

The rstuner can read/erase the stored faults in the ecu and the ones that appear by the electric fault warning light not the obdII warning light. But you can't do all the configuration stuff you can do with clip, it can change stuff on the whole car.

TomTom on here has one, was an expensive option too iirc. I've got £800 in my head but I can't remember.

Not on an Intiale, they were optional on the Dynamique and Priveldge.

Everything was optional really depending on spec, you pick a spec then you chose various options depending on which spec you chose. For example on a dynamique you had the option of elec tilt/slide sunroof, climate control and alarm etc (cd player wasn't standard spec on them either). On an...

Pretty sure it'll have to be a 53 to be a silver one, some might have crept in on an 03 plate but I think most of them are on a 53 plate.

Forget about it, the only thing that will do everything is the renault clip system. Got a few £k spare?

The apex kit I had on my 1.6 actually made it worse in the end, and the ride was shocking. Crashey as fook.

Yes its 100% gris boreal, all the early silver ones are.

They're rated to last 150k so shouldn't need touching.

No sit further in, its backwards as the offset is the distance from the centreline of the wheel to the inside of the mounting face.

The stealers won't keep them in stock anyway so not much good and they usually say special order parts are non-returnable.

Correct

The bubbling doesn't sound brilliant tbh. See how it goes I guess, let us know what happens.

Looking smart indeed, just needs the engine to match now. And i've got to ask, where the fvck is that tunnel? pm me if its a secret lol.
