I think all the gloveboxes are riveted I've never realy looked much though and don't have my car to check.

The 182 manifold is a different length it doens't match up at the same place the 172 one does to the cat. I think the best ide is to get a 172 cat cut to fit or get a bit of pipe made to fit.

Nope. Have a read here for some alarm info. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=108782

Low dust doesn't seem to go well with good brakes. Personally I'd stick with stock FDB845 from Halfords etc (there stock and very good realy) or if you want to spend a bit more DS2500's but there £60 or so vs £17 for stock FDB845 pads.

Kirsten I'd recomend getting someoen out. I'm not to bad with PCs but I tried setting up a wireless network at home for weeks ended up getting a technitial to come and fix it did it in 10 minutes and no problems since.

A hybird usually means a 1.8 16V Valver with a 2.0 bottom end or a full Williams engine.

Chnage the filter for a proper Renault one most places don't sell a proper one.

I've got the same problem i've no idea what my passwrod is so if the PC crashes i'm stuck is there anyway of finding out the password at the moment I'm ok as it auto loggs on.

Mostl likly the speed sensor on the gearbox has some loose or the connector on it. Look under the car at the back of the gearbox theres a sensor in the gearbox.

Why not take him to a phase 1 172 and get him to sit in then give him £4.5k in a pile of cash and say its this or no cash and a 182. Either that or kick him.

Also there all very low milage so need some miles on before they open up and become better.

I woulnd't buy one as I need to say the money but if I was buying a new car and wanted a new car etc I'd get one no problem.

As Maz said so long as they use original Renault parts and stamp the book and are VAT registered then no effects. However if they stamp the book and don't do the full service eg don't check the ball joints and they later fail Renault could refuse the warently claim and say its the garage who...

It will apparently be release in Cup spec (will end up much like the 182 Cup IMO not the 172 Cup style). However thats one year away probably maybe 6 month depends most likly how sales do.

Well my old setup was hard realy (bit of a freeky one no other Clio was that hard) I was holping the bilstine would be the same but there not quite as hard. There still very good though and I'm glad I did upgrade as they should last longer but given the choice I might have liked to go back to...

Thanks for the geek to plain english translation.

Group n maps are just maps which have differetn maps to deal with group N racing cars which means that the engine has to remain standard excpet for intake and an exhaust. Its not an optimum maps for your car and the mods just an off the shelf for the Clio they originally made the map for.

Don't worry about it its a great day out (even better if its not wet) don't worry abotu your car ther'll be load of other owners who take the same car of there cars as you would.

Learn to drive well thats makes up for any extra amount of HP/weight reduction/better brakes etc.

Least its a usable V6. Thats should wind the V6 owners up.

I've only ever used the halfords and Renault ones. I think the Halfords uprated beams are the Philips ones if so well they last about twice as long from my experiances.

It depends what garaeg you go to but you'll find ones who use stuff which does need to get round your tyre if you ask about. Or you could just do it yourself.

Nope no harm some people say 98 helps the idle of the engine and gives more mpg. Renault sold the 172 in countried where 98Ron couldn't even be purchased.

New tyres will help the torque stear. It might just be the new tyres arn't making as much noise of spinnng etc as much so it feels quicker.

Not wanting to sound negative but he'll crash it first. Just look at his history.

Yepo swop the ABS sensors but few breakers remove the sensor so you just plug the new ones in. Only another 4 nuts to undo to fit differetn hubs 5 if you chnage the ball joint at the same time. 1.2 8V use the 52mm hubs the rest of the phase 2 mk2's use 58mm hubs excpet the Renault Sports.

Just buy some second hand hubs they are a direct easy fit £60 for a set or less.

2.0 won't make a difference you need the 2.0 engine as well the ECU won't make a difference.

58mm
