    does anyone agree

    I prefer the drive of my ff182 with cup suspension than my old ff172 , on an every day basis orwhen givin' it some . Plus the exaltos feel alot better than the contis especially round corners at higher speeds .

    spraying plastic

    Sand it down , degrease it first with some panel wipe and maybe use a tack cloth to clean off any powder from sanding , then use plastic primer first before the top coat . http://www.paints4u.com/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=635 http://www.paints4u.com/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=1994

    Fault in the diagnostic test.

    If you press the little button that resets the odometer it should clear the codes . I had a t on my 172 , cleared it and it never came back .

    K&N 57i Gen 2 Induction kit

    Tbh i'm not sure that the Gen 2 are that good . It still has the top open to the heat , it would be better if it was fully enclosed . Heres a bit of a prototype i've made using a k+n cone filter and a homemade fully enclosed heat shield . It uses both the oe cold air feeds , has a nice...

    Can they do this (insurance company)

    If you look on autotrader 1.4 pug 206's are going for less than 3k so i'd say she'll get paid out . Don't know why they would change their minds and want a second inspection , i guess its probably when they are paying out they want to be 100% certain ...

    exalto tyres?!!!

    When my ex gf joined she needed a letterhead plus a recent utility bill from the same business . I'd stick with the exaltos , they were developed for the car plus buying billy budget tyres that won't hold the road in the wet is daft .

    over priced? good or bad add?

    ^^^^ List all the good things . If its in very good condition say so , if it has good / new tyres say so , same for brakes if they have recently been changed say so , condition of alloys etc .... You have to make your car stand out from the rest , baring in mind there are lots of 172's for sale .

    Blonde Needing Advice!!

    Try powerflow . Not sure if there is one near you . Lifetime warranty ,stealth stainless cat back cost me £270 fabricated and fitted on my 172 http://www.powerflowexhausts.net/dealerlist.cfm?dlr_location=7

    Had my service done, but....

    Yeah its the right stuff .Like i said , the 5w-40 is for colder climates down to -25 degrees C , 10w-30 is for climates down to -20 degrees C so unless you live in an arctic country it will be ok . It tells you this in the service book .

    172 starting problem

    Mine did it for ages on my 172 . I changed the battery and it was fine after that .The batteries only have a warranty for 2 years iirc . They are only a pretty low amp battery as standard 420amps , you could try and get a heavy duty battery if it turns out to be the battery . I've also read...

    standard 172 backbox - AGE

    Mine lasted about 30k then fell off , got a stealth stainless cat back fabricated and fitted by powerflow for £270 , lifetime warranty and cheaper than a replacement renault one .

    Had my service done, but....

    10w-40 will be fine , its for temperatures which go down to -20 degrees C , its also recommended for clio 182's in the service manual . 5w-40 is for temperatures which can go down to -25 degrees C which is also recommended in the service manual .

    Same here for me , spray on , leave for 10 mins powerwash off , best stuff i've used .Also Aldi's own version which is only 99p a bottle opposed to about £3.50ish for fairy power spray ;)
