    Speedo stops working intermittently

    Thanks for the tip, mine is the original one as well. It must just be that time (around 20yrs) where a lot of original parts are starting to fail.

    Speedo stops working intermittently

    The gearbox speedo sensor is a different sensor and plugs into the top of the gearbox. You've got 2 Lambda sensors that plug into the exhaust - one before the cat (pre-cat) and one after the cat (post-cat)

    Speedo stops working intermittently

    I'm having similar issues with my Cup. It was raining very heavy the other day and the speedo just dropped to 0 mph when I was doing about 30mph and then 30 seconds later is went back to normal. I was wondering if the rain had some effect on it as it was raining heavy at the time. I've read...

    Should shock absorbers be replaced as a pair?

    I'd always replace them as a pair and get the tracking done afterwards.

    172/182 Grills

    I cleaned the grill with IPA 99.9% and cotton pads until there was no dirt being lifted. Then used cotton pads to apply the C4 with rubber gloves on. You can do all the horizontal bits easily and then pinch the cotton pads either side of the vertical bits. Add a bit of masking tape in front...

    172/182 Grills

    I've used C4 on the upper grills and can recommend it. Just make sure its as clean as possible before applying and it doesn't get wet for about 12 hours so has time to bond. Once you apply it wait a few mins then lightly wipe with a microfibre cloth so it gets an even finish. It should last...

    EML light on permanently

    https://cliosport.net/threads/lambda-sensors.821637/ That forum link has the right Bosch model number to use. I got mine from Ebay when they were doing a 20% off deal. I paid around £35 for it

    Ash's 172 cup

    Why did you decide to remove the front spacers? has the rear got stub axle spacers? Looks a nice Cup, enjoy it.

    EML light on permanently

    Post cat Lambda sensor would be my guess. I just had mine replaced and had the same symptons as you, someone will help you with a decent scanner.

    Exhaust System

    I had one of those hoffman's exhausts before, very cheap it lasted about 3 years then the mid pipe rusted through and snapped. I bought another and it lasted less than 6months, the rear hanger snapped off the backbox. After that I decided to get the stainless Piper one.

    Exhaust System

    I've got a twin resonated Piper exhaust and it's quieter than a stock one and only gets loud if you're flooring it. https://cp-performance.co.uk/product/cp-performance-renaultsport-clio-172-piper-stealth-stainless-steel-exhaust-system/
