check the alternator belt and bolts securing the alternator. might be time for a new one :-(

not worth the money or time.

anyone?

best bet is renault themselves. i got mine from them. worked out cheaper than buying from k-tec unless you live close to k-tec http://www.shedmotorsport.com/brakes.htm

will this seal kit fit my master cylinder? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=310008966637&fromMakeTrack=true&ssPageName=VIP:watchlink:top:uk

fred is correct. I made up my cam locking tool and bought the crank locking tool from renault as i wasn't happy with the haynes idea. renault charge £500-600 to do a cambelt change. I know why. you will need to replace the cam seals etc aswell.

if your confident then have a go. buy a megane haynes manual which covers the f4r engine and then follow it closely. Should be alright just take your time.

172 cup spotted in hythe,kent parked on st leonards road by school. anyone here?

ring renault. took me 2 days because i was taking my time. if you don't know what your doing then don't do it yourself.

sweet

cheers, thought so! will go to renault tomorrow

hi all, i'm after a NEW master cylinder for my clio 172. any idea where i can get one apart form the stealer. I've tried the local motor factors but they don't have them stocked. any advice helpful;)

yeah i will use the hawk pads that come with the kit. i have the fogs removed for brake ducting so this winter will be fun! :-}

discs are £90 each but yelowstuff pads are only £30. and yes you keep the bell housing and bolt on new disc. A pad change will take 5 minutes as the pads are held in with a locking pin. http://www.compbrake.co.uk/

go to homebase or b&q. sure there will be something you can buy to silicone into the hole.

fred is correct, i fabricated one up as I wasn't going to pay £30 for the bar and you don't get the socket either. can be done without the tool! more fluffing

looks like santa is coming to my house with these: http://www.shedmotorsport.com/brakes.htm;)

Re: My mk1 track car blog great progress, just wondering why you have coiled up the brake lines?

glad you like it.

t**t driver who speeds on a quiet side road deserves everything he/she gets. you may claim to be young and stupid but you could of killed the other guy. then how would you feel!!! wake up and get some lessons

no pictures or details??? might help

best mod is to buy the gdi top mount kit for the clio. improves the clio handling and gets rid of any play in the silly renault top mount design.

pics up as soon as you got it!

this is the common clio problem. time to replace your mid section of exhaust. the problem is called the 4k rattle. almost all clio's get it at some point unless you fit an aftermarket catback exhaust system.

quaife all the way

i bought my 172 with finance outstanding. went round to view it and asked seller why he didn't tell me he had finance owing on the car. got a bargain on the car as i paid off the finance on the spot and gave him the change.

nice job :-)
