    Annoying drivers door rattle on 172 ff

    I've got a similar issue. My plan is to rip each interior panel out and line the card with foam tape ensuring all surfaces that make contact with the metal panel are covered. I also intend to add a couple of rolls of Brown Bread at the same time.

    172 ph1 New alloys and CF bonnet

    Not a fan of the CF bonnet as it is too stark a contrast IMO. But the Superleggs' look mint. Another 'criticism', although I would say it was constructive would be to paint the trumpet black and add a very fine silver mesh to the end of the air feed to simulate a fog light as it looks a...

    Going to attempt a DIY refurb, any hurdles?

    I'm going to refurb my Turinis myself I think. Apologies for the attrocious pictures, the digital camera is dead so have had to use my phone. Now I know the kerbing isn't highly visible on these pictures but it is there. Wheel 3 is the best, then 4, then 1 and 2 is the worst. The...

    Sanspeed Powerboost

    Not good for cat's this 10k boost type stuff. I personally would do an oil and filter change as they may well use a different grade of oil in Russia due to the temperature while whacking in some engine flush. Maybe a shot of injector cleaner then run it on V-Power from then on.

    FTAO Fred, 8x Turinis requiring refurb

    Cheers Fred. There's another one with a simailr piece of damage but much smaller. The material is still there, it's just pushed toward the centre of the rim. Is he looking to open up here in the near future?

    FTAO Fred, 8x Turinis requiring refurb

    Evening mate, A friend has just bought a set of Turinis which could do with some TLC as could mine. Could you get a quote for all eight to be refurbed in the original silver? Do you also arrange delivery/return to from Leeds and tyre removal refitting? Pictures of the new wheels attached...

    Pic Request! - New style Renaultsport badges on 172/182's...

    I've just ordered mine. £19.39 all in. Just need some ideas on positioning now. Shall I fit in the same position as the originals?

    new airbox

    You got any Fred or know where I can get one? Or shall I stick with my phase 1?

    help with braided hoses please!?

    Sounds like you may need to fit new unions as they are an ISO from what I remember.

    new airbox

    Looks superb mate. I didn't realise they were different to phase 1 172's. What did it cost and does he have any more? I love my 172 'box, it pulls from so much lower down.

    air filters

    Get yourself a phase 1 172 airbox with Pipercross filter. Run a feed to the bottom inlet but leave the top open. Performance and noise.

    running rich and using loads of fuel

    I did this with my 172 about 12 months ago, it wouldn't come out of limp mode. In the end I removed each fuse individually and dried them which seemed to cure the problem.

    Caged up *** BIG PICS ***

    Get some shots of the Nova up. Are you Mig? Valver looks sweet mate, get those centre caps back on though.

    Silver 172 other side of Kieghly

    Why not. I had a dabble with an old skool jobbie tonight. It was yellow with F+F style graphics and was badged as a WRX but was a five door. I thought old skool WRX's were three door only. Anyway, we pulled away from a set of lights with me behind, I was slowly creeping past until we got to...

    Anyone got/had a Sony Ericsson P910i?

    Fantastic, I love features like that. I wonder if it will be able to recognise my spider scrawl. I want to be able to sync' it with my work laptop ideally. I got to get me one o' those now.

    FFS - Megs clay..........AGAIN

    I had a similar experiance but only had very light marring. I put this down to the fact that certain areas were highly contaminated and required alot of work. As I was going to go over with the rotary afterwards, it didn't bother me.

    Silver 172 other side of Kieghly

    He would have been with you up to around 90.

    Anyone got/had a Sony Ericsson P910i?

    Cheers Tom, good to hear that. It's more novety than anyhting but I do like my toys and I find the K800i to be too simple as I usually buy Nokia symbians'.

    Any one know any good remap companies that come to you???

    As Phil says, RS Tuning. Mine was their very first 172 and showed some great results. Nearly 15 lb/ft gained mid range IIRC. Torque is what counts.

    help!!

    Yep.

    Anyone got/had a Sony Ericsson P910i?

    I've always wanted one of these and they are quite cheap these days. I'm bored of my K800i and the features may be useful for work. Does anyone have any experiences?

    I actually hate Clios at this moment

    I did the same with my rear exhaust mount. Captive nut my arse, craptive nut more like.

    Head Gasket blown - what causes this?

    Not sure on the cause. It could be down to low oil or water levels causing the head to warp slightly or rapid degradation of the gasket material. I'd get a second opinion TBH. The engine is known for it's tecnical spec' but I didn't think they were unreliable.

    Shipping a wheel and tyre from Germany?

    Bump. The listing ends tomorrow so could do with getting something sorted.

    brakes grinding

    It may well be a seized caliper guide. I had this issue which meant the disc was wearing unevenly. Not difficult to sort of you are handy with a spanner.

    172 import CAT2 to CAT1 upgrade. Where from, how much?

    Love it. My FF may be nearer Cup weight then.

    172/182 half leather seats from Renault?

    http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=201159&page=6 PM Giles. It will be the phase 1 interior though which is blue leather rather than balck/grey.
