Had my mk2 ph 2 172 for just over 4 years 48k when sold on the clock and no major problems . Waited for the mk 3 to come out and didn't like the shape so i got a new 182 in Feb 06 . I'll most likely keep it until it's time for the cambelt change and then consider my options .
My 172 failed its 2nd MOT on a seized front brake caliper , brake imbalance they call it . Total b*llocks . There was fcuk all wrong with the brakes . They also gave me a list of things that needed doing that came to the grand total of £484 . Rip off merchants imo .
That was at Nationwide...
I don't think they aren't that accurate tbh . Try the little trick with the button on the end of the stalk , check how much fuel you have left then go and fill up and check again . I've done it loads of times were i've checked how much was in the tank before filling up , filled up and then added...
Probably just back to the good lacquer where its not peeeling . I'd take it to a small back street bodyshop and see what they say . It probably won't cost that much .

Could be the discs thowing out the balance . I'd get my wheels checked for balance like i said . Or try moving the discs round 180 degrees , see if that helps .Sometimes when you fit new discs the don't always run true .
Well he does state " example photos " , but on the other hand it does say its a Pioneer and nowhere does it state its the american version .
I'm a bit baffled as well , as 172.com says , radio waves are radio waves . If it's definitely not working report it to ebay , thats all you can do...
Quinn direct told me they don't insure 1*2's anymore .
Two people could have indentical details , age , years driving , ncb etc .... one in a good post code one in a bad post code and the quotes will vary massively .
I prefer the german applicators or sonus applicators over the little yellow foam pads . You can work the polish harder and they are easier to hold than the little yellow foam pads .
