I have just bought a Canon Ixus 70 Digital camera a few weeks ago.
I have one problem , my battery aint lasting to long :(
I get about 100 shots and its dead, is this about right ?
And does it do any harm if i put the battery pack in the charger and forget about it ? :S
Will it ruin or...
I was thinking about going down the eibach route and lowering my 172FF.
But one concern is at standard ride height my engine undertray looks close to ground and looks like it may scrape when lowered :dapprove:
If it did scrape, how far up from the undertray is the sump (Meaning whats the...
I thought i'd post up some pics of my 172 before and after i washed it today.
I used Duragloss 901 Shampoo with lambswool mitt and dried thecar with the Blue Sonus Drying Towel.
Then i dressed the tyres with Megs Endurance and gave it a going over with Collinittes 476 and did a coat on the...
What kinda increase would you expect to see with a Enlarged throttle body in place of the standard one ?
E.g.
A 80mm tb instead of 60mm tb
Would it be noticable ?
And if it was worthwhile doing
, what card tb's would be s straigh swap for my fly by wire one on my 172 FF ?
I have been reading the following post http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?p=3661629&posted=1#post3661629 and someone said disconnect the battery and reconnect after half hour and go for a fast run/drive :S
What does that do by disconnecting it ?
This may sound silly and a bit random but whats the Best ?
K&N Panel 57i Typhoon Filter ?
Pipercross panel and viper filter ?
Bmc filter
ITG Maxogen filter ?
Pound for pound ?
What and where would i get an uprated plenum for my 172ff ?
Angelworks ?
And what about the lower inlet manifold bit ?
I've heard the ones on the 182, with "Rs" on them are better.
Is this true ?
And would that come with new Plenum or separate ?
Is there something wrong with my car ?
Or is it just me ?
As after i fitted a decat on my stainless stealth exhaust sytem and removed the acoustic valve for and replaced with ducting from front grillfor better air flow the VVT Kick doesn't seem as obvious :(
Anyone any ideas why this could...
Outta curiousity whats everyone getting to a tank of fuel ?
As i put in a tenner of V Power yesterday @ £106.9 per litre and only got about 70-80 miles and the petrol light came on :(
Does this sound about right ?
Think i'll go fillit right up tomorrow and see what i get to a tank ;)
Sorry if this sounds silly.
But is the plenum the lower inlet manifold bit with injectors going into it ?
Or something beide throttle body ?
I read a thread a few days ago, someone was asking if the 182/182 cup plenum would fit a 172.
I cant remember i the replys was it would or it...
Anyone know of a spray type bumper care i can use on my lower grill ?
I use Ag Bumper care for all the other black plastic bits but couldn't be arsed using it on the lower grill, i'd be there all day going in each hole with the cloth on end of my finger :(
I've heard a few people on here go on about Fairy Power spray.
Is it safe to use anywhere on your car ?
Or is it a big no no and a wax stripper ?
How about on the whells will it strip them right back as well ?:S
Does anyone have any ideas why this 172 has what looks like black electrical tape over foglights ? :S

Anyone any ideas how much a set of 16" Cup Turini alloys or 182 Alloys would be if i went to Renault ?
As i wouldn't mind a set but can't find a set of either wheels anywhere :(
I tried a search but down here (In Egypt) its taking forever to display the results :(
The network must be quite crap.
So i'll ask instead just to annoy a few people :)

Does anyone know how to fit a pillar mounted gauge pod onto the windscreen/door pillar of a 2002 172ff ?
Do they usually come with fixings ?

As people on here probably know i'm away to fit oil gauges in my 2002 172ff.
I was going to be mounting them in a pillar mounted pod, but wandered how i remove the pillar trim from the pillar that runs between windscreen and drivers door ?
Does anyone know ?

Dunno if this is right section, but here it gos.

My Duragloss 901 shampoo ran out the middle of lastweek and i forgot about it till i went to wash car yesterday :(
And as Polished Bliss is only a half hour drive away i think i'd be better getting my replacement from there ;)
Ill have to collect it though as there online store is closed :(...
Whats better ?
Egp or Jetts Acrylic Trigger ?
And can the Acrylic can be used at this time of year as its a spray on wipe off ?
Which i think could be better than EGP which needs a cure time and would be no good this time of year:(
Does anyone know what the correct torque is for tightening up the sump plug on a 172 ?
As i don't want to overtighten it and damage washer or undertighten it and have a leak :(
Do you just need to tweek it up a wee bit as it has a washer to seal against ?
Or does it need torqued ?
