If it was the fault of somebody else and they have admitted liability and the car is repaired , it will have lost some of its value and you can make a claim for this . Its called Diminution of value . http://www.carvaluesplus.com/diminution.htm

Everybody has their own preference . I think the chemicals guys stuff is as good as anything tbh . http://www.chemicalguysuk.com/product_p/extrwash.htm

Not sure of the price , i thought i saw it quoted around a tenner . Part no. 77 00 424 098

Why mongoose ? Its not a name you usually see mentioned for the 172 ! When i had a 172 , i had one made up at powerflow in Burnley . £270 , full cat back stainless stealth system .They'll make you any system that you specify . http://www.powerflowexhausts.net/HOME.CFM

Sorry . On the second one you can order by phone though if thats any good ?? http://www.tradeproducts.co.uk/ordering.htm

Loads of different side repeaters on here mate :) http://www.body-kit.co.uk/acatalog/renault_clio_mk2_side_repeaters.html

^^^ Your right . Renault do recommend every 4 years or 72k .Personally and for the sake of a tenner i change mine every 12 months usually .

I used rover storm grey when i refurbed an alloy . It was a 99% colour match . I saw fred say that audi nimbus grey was a perfect match .

Like ben says , the wheel guard is very good , i sometimes top that up with collinite 845 as well . http://www.chemicalguysuk.com/product_p/whegrd.htm ^^^ Another teflon product eh ! Seems to be the in thing at the moment ;)

Double fcukin posts again , lol

It definitely sounds dodgy , never heard of it being a problem on a clio before though . A remember seeing that bloke in a beemer last year , his accelerator stuck on and he ended up crashing into a roundabout at 120mph though lol :eek:

So its definitely not catching on the mat ? I had this once years ago with my clutch pedal , it kept sticking down and i had to keep flicking it up with my foot , lol . If not a trip back to Renault me thinks .

From what i've read on here the 182's fail with a de cat , but some 172's have been known to pass with a de cat .

Is it catching on your car mat ??

Or try this . Does exactly the same as the others mentioned above , wash your car , spray in on when its wet , dry the car , job done . Beads water as good as any wax and lasts for absolutely ages .Its a good one to have if your pushed for time or the weathers looking a bit iffy . I've even put...

^^^ I'm pretty sure i've just answered that , lol :quiet:

You were driving round with only 4psi in your tyre and you never noticed ? :eek:

For the 182 according to the book its 33 front and 30 rear . But people do like to play about with pressures to what suits them .

Talex lite for me . As said above , keep your eye out for the special offers in Aldi .

Nope . No manual for the 172 . 182's . It wouldn't have been worth while printing one as the sales are relatively low compared to the standard clios . The haynes manual does cover alot of things that might be of some use though .

I've used comma in the past and i've used castrol response .Like GordonD says , its like having 2 different kinds of engine oil , you can't tell the difference .

Take it back and get em to sort it . Sounds like either bad technique or setup at the bodyshop . Lots of cars suffer from it from factory , Clios are reknowned for it .

^^^ Probably . Just have a word with a local scaffolding firm , lol ;)

Never heard of em tbh mate . You want of these ;) http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=019&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=290080373987&rd=1&rd=1

Yep offset on the front and rear .

Nice motor mate :) Still one of my fav cars , great handling cars too ;)

Agree . Whats the point of having a car like that and not using it ? You might as well just have a £500 banger , run it into the ground for a year or two then scrap it . Waste of a good car imo . A cars a tin box on wheels , use it , enjoy it . I really can't see the point in having a car...

^ Bit of a silly comment if you ask me mate ! Whats the point of having a car with 170+ bhp if you have to tip toe round when its wet ?? Imo you want a tyre that instills confidence in the car in all weather conditions . I know from experience just how bad they can be in the wet , i stacked...

Part number is : 77 00 817 027 Warm it up with a hairdryer , like MrStabby says , its only stuck on with double sided tape .
