My auntie had the same on her 1.4 16v and Renault fixed it under warrenty.

Yes I did. Only thing is I dont really wanna involve Renault incase they said Ive invaidated the warrenty having my uncle change it. No way was I gonna pay £60+ for them to do it and put Halfords own in. I know they are meant to put the good stuff in but I dont trust my local dealers.

Agreed

Class Reno! Class!

^^^^ Unless you own a VTR or a 3 series.

I know that but it was crap oil. My uncle knows his stuff being a touring car driver, racing engineer and mechnic for over 35 years.

My uncle has just changed the oil in my cup for the first time. Ive had it a year so I thought change the running in oil. Now I see I should have had it done at 1000miles! The oil in the car was rubbish quality. No way it was the right oil for the car - it was like water! Funny really...

You not using that car everyday are you? If Its just 2nd car for trackdays then Id leave it - Plus it will be better for the 2005 Holiday.:)

Are the seats dealer fit? If will they offer the fitting to the 172 Cups?

Is that the gunmetal grey one? I had one in my VTR. Wasnt keen on it really. The MP3 system worked well but the CD player wasnt as good as my pervious Pioneer PMA6500 - jumped a bit on pot holes where as the 6500 never never jumped at all. Saying that though I wish Id taken it out and put it...

Are you just driving a non sporty Clio too fast?

If you take the fuse out will the indecators not stop working?

Always run the A/C full blast for 5 mins once a month. Say when youre cleaning the car. Cleans out the system.

1. Clio Williams 2. 205 GTi 3. Golf Mk1 GTi 4. Escort RS Turbo Series 1 5. Sierra RS500

After all 2.0 Cosworth lumps have been know to give over 600bhp.

Hardly Vtec.

Have a look at the owners manual. Think theres a section in there

I just hate the sound of the Zetec engine. Also the Focus dash :sick:

I never leave anything in my car! Except copied CDs.

Ben, I think about selling my 172 cup in the spring if youre interested. Very Low Milage 53 reg.

Paid cash on the hip.

Jesus! An Evo 6 would be cheaper! JONGSR4 insured his 4 in croydon (just as bad post code as liverpool id say - according to that list it was the highest group) for £1400 with Tesco at 22

That is ruined!

Ive never had AC so so far I havent missed it.

Thing is. Ive owned cars without ABS before (Metro,escort,cavalier) but the 172 Cup has such powerful brakes compared to them you cant just wack the pedal in the wet because youll lock. You need to be soft

Good for clearing windows too! Mind you Im selling my non cc "real" cup if youre interested. Only 3,000 miles cause I hardly use it.

It was an £800 option which I thought was a little steep.

Policeman told me that if you brake hard in snow then it builds up under the locked wheels giving it a surface to stop on. Where as with ABS the wheels dont allow the build up to happen. What about ice? In rain ABS all the way
