Nice one . Glad " you " got it sorted ;)

How easy / hard is it to remove the acoustic valve , is it easy to put back if needed ? Do you notice any difference when you hit 5k revs , do you still get the kick ??

She's forgotten to mention it gets cleaned everyday ,pmsl ;)

That peg from a dolls house are what , lol ?

Yep , got the Talex , £60 well spent imo :) If you go on Aldis website you can register and they send you all the latest offers by e mail .

Local motor accessory shops usually sell them probably cost twice as much as the individual pads but you get a big roll of it so you've plenty left for future use

Let him read this post then . Yep definitely your boyfriends lack of skill ;)

Same here for me . I sold my import 172 similar age , mileage etc for the same as a UK model . Nothing wrong with imports , your insurance isn't affected , obviously you need an alarm and if your the second owner i would imagine it already has one as i think you'll find it pretty hard to get...

Like loony says wet sand with 1500 grit wet n dry . Depending how thick you have applied the lacquer will depend whether you would need to relacquer it , but i would say just scratch x it afterwards and will come up smooth and shiny . As Luke says , sounds like you've applied it too thick ...

^^^^ Its not a coating a such . The heat reflective coating is bonded to the glass when its still warm so its part of the glass as opposed to a coating . It won't wash or rub off .

^^^^ You can buy the sticky number plate pads on a roll , which aren't much more than buying the individual pads .

Pics , prices would be good :)

You'll always pay alot more from a dealer mate . Check out autotrader , private sellers , never give what they want as there are loads to choose from . Its a buyers market and everybody over prices them cos they expect to be knocked down a few hundred quid ...

I had a power boost valve on my pug 306 s16 , it was shite , it fcuked up the engine management and put it into limp mode because it was over fuelling , and it was set up on a rolling road . I took it back and got a full refund . Don't waste your time or money . If i was you Trish i'd do...

Toyos are shite in the wet !

Swarfega might shift it , then clean it with autoglym interior shampoo .

You could try on here .Matt Blacks website , says they are breaking a few 172's . http://renault-spare-parts.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=31_42&sort=20a&page=5

Same as Nez for me . Keep it on auto wipe and use the speed dial , yeah the relay clicks like fcuk , lol .

You have a wheel well in a cup ? Edit : sorry 172 i was thinking 182 , lol .

I'd just leave em bent . They will only bend again the next time you use a jack .

It would be laminated onto the screen .

^^^^ Pedantic :rasp:

This is what i have for my gps speed camera detector . It sticks well and is magnetic .7th pic down , its a flat rubber ,magnetic pad http://www.talex.co.uk/buyonline/default.asp

I'd guess that its on the outside . You could try phoning a Renault dealership they might know .

Might be in the wrong section but here goes anyway , lol . 12v in car adaptor coming into Aldi on Sunday 9th of July . Might be of some use to some people as i've seen people who wire in a second fag lighter . http://aldi.co.uk/

Don't know if they rear calipers are the same as 172/182's but i've seen em seize on newer calipers ,the only thing that can really seize is the adjuster screw inside the caliper , if it rusts it will seize and i've seen 1 rust . The pads will make fcuk all difference as to whether it will...

Alloys can and do corrode on the inside sometimes , could be for a few reasons , salt on the roads , wheel cleaners ( acid based ) . Nuts corode to . Do you mean " cabin " movement when idling ? If so this is pretty normal , the idle is pretty rough on 172 / 182's due to the cams, when its...

Never seen a post on here before about a variator , i'd be interested to know what and if there is a problem with it ? I know its something to do with the valve timings but thats as far as my limited knowledge goes . Sounds like the cats fcuked to me full stop . Some makes of cars like...
