For the golf? I just put a set of Goodyear asy 5 on mine. £306 fitted at my local protyre. They seem decent enough!

That’s been for sale for ages

So another update. I checked the cold resistance of the injectors, they were all 11.1 ohms. I persistently get a bank 1 sensor 2 lambda heater circuit code stored, so I swapped to the decat with another lambda sensor in it. Now instead of flashing for 10 seconds at a time it’ll flash for 2...

Still cannot work out what this overrun rattle is. So far I’ve: Swapped vvt solenoid with known good one Replaced the Dephaser with a brand new one Taken the exhaust off at the v-band on the turbo as some people suggested it could be a blow. But it’s still the same. I want to get to the bottom...

It really is strange, especially as before all this it was totally fine. It only flashes at very light throttle. My only other thought is the ecu was adapting something as it was the first time I’d driven it with the new updated ecu. I will check the resistance of the injectors and go from there.

Thought I’d update, now have the new ecu updated with the map from ED which is all good. On Andy’s recommendation it’s booked in with him on the 25th March for some dyno time to check the map is all okay. I do now have an occasional flashing engine light on very light throttle so think I may...

P0420 is cat efficiency which usually indicates a failing catalytic converter

Just sold my silver one for £3250. Easily worth over £4K in bits but didn’t have time to break it otherwise I would have

I’ll message you mate

These are the connections on the loom I have

I’ve got a loom (I think!) for a 6 cd changer out of a 172. I would’ve thought it would be the same

One of my earliest memories is my dad getting caught speeding in one of these when I was 4. Love a 21!

Yes we did. Alex from awmotorworks popped by Sunday (long story but he was in my area) he connected Clip and couldn’t delete any faults out of anything. So we swapped the ecu sets from the cup to my silver car and it fired straight up and equally having the cup set on the silver car still had...

Yeah it’s not connected or got a fuse in it. Would be nice to have if I ever leave the car in a hotel car park before a track day but I’ll worry about that another time

Graham was trying to make the central locking useable with the kill switch off, ignore that part of the diagram as it needs some more modification to make it work. I cleaned that up today (not that it was crusty at all) as i had that issue on my silver one.

All uch functions work (that I still have) so I don’t think it’s a uch problem. But I shall update this thread if I find anything!

My worry at the moment is something got spiked, but my multimeter is at work so can’t check anything properly. I’ve replaced the kill switch this morning as I had a new one in the garage. More investigation required 😊

Currently like this. @GrahamS wired it in when he built the car.

So unfortunately my 172 Turbo died yesterday and at present I’m stumped as to why it won’t restart. I’ll start with the story that got me to this point! So yesterday I took the car to the Sunday scramble, drove there in the morning no issues at all. When I got there I turned off the car then...

I’ve never used engine dynamics for work on a car, but have bought lots of parts. Always helpful and when he didn’t have supertec exhaust valves in stock after ordering, instead of refunding he offered me the next level up valves which were £90 more, but offered we went halves so I only paid £45.

Thanks, really glad to have been able to buy it! I intend to get to snet at some point this year!

I’m based 10 miles out of Oxford, but like Daniel my local track is castle Combe having driven there many times over the years. Obviously this Clio is new to me for ‘22 but I’m looking forward to getting out in it! Looking like my first one will be Donington in February. Favourite track is...

I certainly will drive it hard, and I do think NUP needs to go to the ring this year. Thank you again.

hola, hay unos 172 turbos aquí, espero que encuentres la información que necesitas. Google translate is good lol

Not as yet, I did swap the vvt solenoid and that made no difference so I really think it is the Dephaser. Planning to get one on it in January before giving it back to the old man.

So this project is nearing its end and in another twist it’ll be going back to my dad. I bought @GrahamS 172 cup turbo off him which is everything I wanted this car to be so it made sense. It also means my 172 track car will be up for sale so at the end of this I will only have 1 beast of a Clio!

GKN 640mm from euros, that’s what I fitted

My GTI

🤣🤣 if that’s what the people want then I’m happy to oblige. I do need to take some pics first of it though!
