The temperature gauge in my 2002 172FF sits at half way on the scale when the cars warmed up (after about 10-15 minutes from start up-maybe longer in colder weather) Is this normal ? And is it ok to give my car s**t with it in that position ? Would it really be properly warmed up ? Or...

After reading this thread http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=312032 I was wandering can you get these Racelogic systems the guy in that thread has on his Clio Williams for a 2002 172FF ?

Would/Can you get these Racelogic systems to work in a 2002 172 FF ?

Tank of juice you'll probably get :) Mats you may be lucky. My car was minus mats though when i got it and the said i'd have to pay for them if i wanted them, they couldn't throw them in with car :( They said "Mate have you seen the price of the mats for these cars (172,182's) ?" So i...

Another Iceberg Silver 172FF in Aberdeen :):D £6500 is a bit steep, if you don't mind travelling it may be worth trying Ren dealers down south a bit for a 182 for the same price. The only thing is the warranty might not be the same... Thats what i've got and my car came from there as well...

I was £107 for an aux belt kit for my FF. But a Cup it maybe cheaper. I went to Mackie Motors as it was cheaper than Renault (eVAN hALSHAW IN aBERDEEN) by a few hundred quid for a timing belt and aux belt and fitting them. ;)

Its at a place called Scott Fyfe cars. Its on the Kinsway if i remember right ;) I scan through AutoTrader will confirm it though :)

Why do you want to do that ? Sunstrips are a no no unless your a chav or a touring car

Where did you get that picture its quite good. :)

Does anyone know if the gasket would have to be replaced if the manifold had been removed ? Or will you get away with using it again being a metal one ? Reason being my inlet manifold was removed and refitted using the old gasket

Is your finished ?

*UPDATE* I still have my old manifold gasket where the upper plenum (manifold with Renaultsport) joins the lower manifold (one with injectors). They said that was the problem of my dodgy idle. So why haven't they replaced it ? The service manager said the mechanic had taken the upper...

Ah righty. Is there none up there ? Could you not broden your search a bit ? Theres on in dundee i think on Auto Trader at a garage. ;) And if you head south theres more chance of getting a better deal :) Maybe get one for less.

The standard ones are 4300k i think

The Renault dealer in Abrdeen was wanting about 6 to 700quid for the same thing :(

I think a lot of people are gettin silly prices for things like coolant changes etc from Renault as they are charging a high hourly labour rate :( Would def be worth getting a local mechanic to bleed the brakes and change the coolant etc ;) Or don't do it all at once break the coolant and...

Get pics up ;)

I'd just carry a few bottles of water in the car with you so you aint caught short bud. And even that rad weld stuff in the blue bottle may be worth a shot ;)...

Where you from ?

Ah right ok. You don't want to come here, theres nowt to do. :(

Agreed ;) A lot of them are muppets

Bu why ruin the car with that exhaust ? That why i went for stealth look ;)

Youngish lassie, mid to late 20's. My bird just said the car used to live round corner from me, they moved into a house beside me then the car was sold

I'm changing to an ITG Panel, see if thats any different. I wasn't spending 200-300 quid on a Maxogen.

I'm sure i have seen that car going around Portlethen (a wee town outside Aberdeen where i live) but not for a while as he has it now.. I remember the silly exhaust, as there wasn't any in aberdeen with that exhaust i think. Make sure its had all the belts done as said as this is how much i...

My one went that way as well ;) Heres my Receipt. Did you go to Mackie Motors for your rear shocks mate ? As there slightly cheaper aren't they ? But aint worth my money in petrol going there :(

That not like them to give you useless information. Lol :D Some of them are clueless :( The one in Aberdeen is.

I have just removed the K & N Panel Filter from my 172FF as its surplus to requirements. Does anyone know the going rate for them ? Or is it not worth selling ? Its had approx 6 months of use and is in vgc.

Idle as bad as i had ? :S

Does anyone know if a leaking inlet manifold gasket would cause the idle on my car to go all over the place ? As my car is in at the stealers at the moment as the idle is all over the place :( and they say thats the problem. Shooting up to 3000 rpm and done to 1000rpm etc etc and sticking at...
