Renault garages can forget to remember to do this as some cars may have had there belt break at mayabe 10k so the belt wouldn't need to be done till 46k if you catch my drift. Your bill should explain it though a normal service is about £150~ 200 but it they charged over £250 then either its...

Buy my trailer and get a tow car? Park it on the road and ring the RAC saying its broken? Garages usually have trade plate if you've a mate there try borrowing them to drive the car home as someone with trade plates can drive any car to an MOT place so long as they've done some basic safety...

You can just get the bearings pushed in from a garage etc and fit the brakes yourself. Brakes are easy only probelm is the backs as most places don't come with the bearings fitted.

You mean the hub nut? The 30mm one is 175NM or 129lb torque ie tight Nut should be replaced every time but I don't cos I'm cheap just use locking compound but for 80p or whatever they are its worth getting a new one.

Mark I'm off to get some of those tyres there only 2 people at Demon Tweeks can help your best off I'd think ringing the manurfacturer.

More than dom? It shouldn't rotate the thing should be seated properly it there any give it will rattle.

German Sweedish French car part its s company Ben. The you need someone to fit it just get a second hand hub £40 froma breakers. I've got a hub someone at home if you want £30 its yours.

There a guide on a Renault forum showing you how to fiddle the punmp to make it give more power (will give about an extra 10% more power depends how far you open the pins etc and accept the smoke).

Didn't know there were so many locals to where I live.

Depends how good you are but from what you've said forget it just buy a 1.6 much easier and less hastle. It has been done but its not a simple job if you want more power get a 172 transplant for £1.5k+ vat from matt at Renault specialist breakers and that includes evertything brakes suspension etc.

Personally a Chip wizards is the way I'd do £350 for a remap vs £500 for a SMT thingie. GDi is cheaper gor extra remapos but I don't think Chipwizards charge that much more.

Don't bother with fancy disks IMo they just crack there only advanatge is they look better (although thats down to your preference). Never had any trouble with Renault or Halfords disks Renault disks are supposidly better material than the Renault ones but since none of either have cracked its...

Turinis personally.

Best travel for the saving of £1k its well worth it.

http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=137400 £3.3k he wants. I wouldn't say mods are worth anyhting I'd never pay more infact I'd pay less quite a lot of 172 owners buy them as there a fast car cumfortable etc not to rag them to death and thats the tyre of owner I'd prefere to buy...

Yep we had trouble finding a suitable set then again knowing the company these arn't the same calipers as we could find at the time.

At the ring last year there was a BMW using the 888 tyres said they were a danger on the motorway in the dry and wet on the drive there but once they got about half way round the track they heated up and stuck like glue.

Ring Matt at specilaist Renault breakers he'll have a set for say probably £50~60 for them fit them yourself in 2 hours at absolutl worst.

Talk to Yozzasport or Chipwizards but the gains are minimal on a stock car more midrange power than few more top end but thats it.

£4.2k max personally. More like £3.8 since its near a cambelt. There one for sale on the forum for £3.3k.

Just get new or second hand hubs you should get them for about £30 a side. then fitment doesn't take long if you do it yourself maybe 1.5hrs labour at a garage. If you want them changed then you need a garage to press the old bearings out and new ones in so mayabe £20 a side for the brearing...

Pm me your address I'll send you the file dead easy to do.

Drop Fred a call.

Unpluggin the battery doesn't clear the problem it stays in the cars memory. Probably the throttle body dirty you need to remove it clean it with some carb cleaner and stick it back in.

Whats wrong with 10-40 the Renault spec says so long as temps don't drop below -20 deg C then its fine for use.

Yep the cars not stanrd as it left the factory so if you crash they can refuse to pay out as you didn't tell them it had more power (however small). There was a forum member some time ago had a crash insurance assessor came round and refused to pay out as the car had different aftermarket...

Rear brake hub.

I was going to ask the same thing but didn't want to sound like a man who cannot get enough free food.

That would be a great guide if you didn. Just have to make sure the dropped valve hasn't done any damage to the head.
