    72k service inc cam belt 500 quid

    I woult try for the suspension and the exhaust but I'd think they'd refuse both claims. Exhaust are a common failing popular is the aftermarket stuff as replacment. Top mounts easy to change and not to pricy. New pads are £55 from Yozzasport and pads well standard Renault are £40 or so going...

    what the hell is a Ecotek valve

    Won't do anything its a waste of time. BenR did some long winded explanation and I don't belive it works from mwhat I've seen. Do you honestly thing if it worked Renault wouldn't fit it as standard?

    172 Starting problems

    Chnage the sensor round the ignition barrel they commonly fail sounds like this is the problem if the lights not going off then the imobiliser not swithed off which usually points to the key pickup round the key fob being bust there easy to replace and not to pricy.

    Airfield Galleries

    Was just a joke. If you print the times people are bound to have excuses etc not worth starting it (not saying people who atteneded would but others might so not worth even opening the can of potential worms) Nothing sad with the Excel sheet you should see the stuff I graph for my car at work.

    Spring advice

    If you cannot afford them them my opinion is not to change infact unless you change springs and dampers as well I woulnd't bother at all but thats my personal preference. Stock suspensions not bad it maybe rolly but thats not necessarily bad. Apex I'd say for cheaper.

    Miles!!!!

    62k in 3.5years which is what 1.5k a month . I did something like 26k in my first year but thankfully about 7k of them were in other Clio when mine was being fixed you see having an unreliabel/crased car has some advantage mine be near 72k if it were a relaible car.

    Induction Kit on a diesel

    WOn't givbe 1 hp gains might help reduce lag (but you'll never be able to tell) also unless its getting cold air forget it. It will make some noise though if you like that thats your choice. No fuel economy gains unless you include the fact the extra noise may may make you drive easier.
