I thought i'd better ask this before the inevitable happens and i kerb one of my Turinis. :( Does anyone know the paint code for Anthercite Speedline Turinis ? These have not been painted and i bought them in Anthercite from Larkspeed and i fitted a new set of Toyos to them as it was cheaper...

I was parked outside the girlfriends house about a week ago and there was a knock at the door from the old woman across the road. She'd came over to say she had reversed into my car which was parked on the street :( She has kinked the rear 1/4 panel on the arch lip and the paint has started...

Was waiting to go through the traffic lights by Kelly of Cults and a black 182 with black Compomotive alloys, Bucket seats and what i thought was a partially stripped out interior drove past up the hill. I think it was Dark Knight off here ? As i think i've seen it on here somewhere. Also...

I have recieved my matched Inlets from Jamsport with PTFE Gaskets to replace my standard ones :) I think they need a clean up and paint though as they look rough to the standard ones. The Inlet Manifold (plenum) looks straight forward enough to swap. But before i fit them is there anything...

I fitted a new clutch cable to my 172 recently as the old one was all stiff and basically shot. The new clutch cable a received from Renault was exactly the same as as the one i removed bar having two big weights attached to it. I thought nothing of this so proceeded to fit it to the car and...

Whats the average life of rear shockers on a 1*2 ? As one of mine is pissing out oil. And i just dug out the receipt to see when the 2 rears were replaced last, and they were fitted 9000miles ago :( Grrr, just before Fcs too. :mad:

When i get back from offshore i’m planning on changing my gearbox oil on my 172. Is this the drain plug on my gearbox ? See pics below? And am i right in saying that the airbox has to be removed to refill it ? As there is a plastic wing nut car/plug thing on the top of the gearbox that you...

I have seen this 172 advertised locally on Pistonheads and its says it has a “9bhp Play and Play Chip” fitted. http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/823369.htm Wtf is a Plug and Play 9 bhp chip ? It sounds like a chip you’d see on Ebay promising silly power increases Lol :rasp: Shame about the...

I am in the process of painting my door bullets/badges and was wandering what colour is the closest match to Anthercite Turini's ? As i have primed and sprayed them in Peugeot Steel Grey which i think has turned out too dark :( I have heard you can get Rover Steel Grey. Is this a...

I dunno if this link has been posted before but here it goes. There is a link at the bottom of this thread to the Renault Service Manual for the 2.0 litre (F4R 730) engine found in the 1*2's. Although it is dated July 1999 and focuses on and has pics of the Clio Ph1 172, it is still useful for...

Does anyone know what the size of the standard sump plug on a 172 is ? By size i mean what is the threads on it ? Is it a M14 x 1.5 thread which is the same as the standard oil pressure sensor on the front of the engine block ? The reason i ask is i'm planning on tidying up my oil pressure...

I have a 2002 172 Ff and was considering getting rid of my A/c as i never use it. I was gonna remeover the A/c Compressor, Condensor, A/C Radiator, pipework etc and replace it with the Clio 172 Cup setup. I have seen that Yozza sell a kit to do this for £349...

Are there any Meggie or Laguna wheels (steel or alloy) that will fit a 172 with no scrubbing anywhere and that will fit over the brakes ? Am i right in thinking anything over 15's and 4 stud will be ok ? Reason i ask is i was gonna refurb my wheels and it needs something to roll on in...

I'm am pondering with the idea of dropping my Ph2 172 on its arse on coilovers. :) My next question is what ones are the best i can get for less than 500 to 600 quid ? And where would i be able to buy them ? As i'm totally oblivious as to what coilies are good and what ones are bad :( I may...

I know this has probably been asked before but here goes. I have a FF172 as some of you's know and i'm after some Matched Inlets for it. I have seen that JamSport and Angelworks do them. My next question is are these two companys as good as each other at matching them ? Or does one company...

I am seriously thinking about a new set of wheels for my Iceberg 172 thats lowered on Eibach Sportlines. The reason for the change is my standard Ff wheels are all in need of a refurb and two of them need tyres :( so thought f**k it as i have the cash i'll treat myself :) And they have to be...

I have just received this link from one of my mates. http://www.dirtworker.co.uk/ Its basically a portable pressure washer which is self contained and runs off your fag lighter. I thought it'd be handy at the likes of Car shows etc where you cannot get a constant water to hook a hose up and...

After reading the following thread http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?p=4974581#post4974581 about Bmc Cda Filters. I was wandering if all the Cda airboxes are the same ? The reason i ask is all the Bmc Cda's i have saw for sale look the same size but with different...

I was out in car today and the engine light came on, car still drove the same as always has so i kept going to where i was intending (5miles away) and then called the AA for a free diagnostics test :) It turned out to be the O2 sensor on the cat and i was told not to drive it :( So my question...
