Here you go buddy, its the best one the cup i could find just now Pug steel grey and glacier white :)

Damn you! Makes me want to keep the cup! Awesome pics, love the steelies :)

Like said. Trace the wire and have a look for any breaks. There also notorious for lettiing in water and corroding up, but this doesnt sound like the problem your having.

meh! ali can handle it....... or can he? Seen some Tokyo drift action from him while i was on my way home not long ago!

Dry road, freezing cold winters day ............... Heaven! Pussys :approve:

When this happening then? or is it another cs fail? Fancy a wee road trip before the cup goes once and for all.

Was going to say........ Have you checked the oil?

Imo these things happen. I dont really think the guy who sold it to you could predicted the starter motor frying itself. But i hope you get it sorted and have some happy 172 ownership, i love mine :D

Im sure i can remember someone calling renault for an injector o ring seal and it was £15 + vat......... No thanks.

Dealer parts are expensive but at the end of the day your paying for a perfect fit and something that will last a wee bit longer than a pattern part. Ive just replaced the two handbrake cables on the cup and it took 15 minutes due to them obviasly being a perfect fit etc.

I cant see the lambda causing the cat to glow red. My bet is with beef-Mc. Coil pack is failing causing unburnt fuel going into the exhaust which then ignites when the coil pack decides to work. This would explain the "juddering". The lambda is just picking up on this and telling you that the...

+1 It will cost a wee bit more mate but atleast its piece of mind :)

Sounds like its going into limp mode. When you take it to renault they will chuck it onto the computer and that will read the fault, then you will know :)

I think you prob rite mate. My print out from last year is in my folder of work done to the car, im going to dig it out tomorrow to find out mine :lolup: I would do it now but due to having no mot and tax i cant drive it so its left at my work. f**king hate the thing now. If it wasnt so...

d make +1 Cable ties are no use for nothing. Jubilee them on very tight and make sure they dont come off on full lock. Jack the car up and spin the wheel to make sure it isnt fouling on anything. Just what most guys have said :)

Join the club mate, mine went through last year with no problems atal. This year i need a handbrake cable (both sides),windscreen and what ever else they find tbh. Just done the discs,pads, calipers, bearings and tyres and it goes in 2 months time. You will find they fall apart pretty quick...

Aye getting there mate, just a hassle finding bumpers etc etc engine is in though ;) As you an see just starting to rough in the loom just now. Going to update my project thread soon maybe.

Chaving it up since 1988. Have the nova to prove it

Many thanks mate, you've just saved me a whole load of hassle :D

Fit likey knobs. Havnt been on here in a while. Whats new? Missing your wee faces!

I need a new one. Both sides for the mot. Ive tried the local parts shops and non of them can supply one. Is it a dealer only part? Rough price for both sides?

My cup vs a friends standerd mk4 gsi astra, i win on take off,straight line race and in the bends. But i would have the gsi over the cup anyday. They have a nice interior, tuning is cheap and they look awesome imo.

I love the mirrors but the bullets,calipers and tow stickers is just to much imo.

Im away to replace the rear discs, pads and hanbrake on the cup. Does anyone have any experiance on pattern part handbrake cables for the 172, How well do they fit? Any info on where you bought it and prices would be great :D

Glad you have it sorted now mate :) Still cant see it costing 12k mind you.

Ofcourse your not going to see a difference. You can only feel it ;) V-power of tesco99 in the cup. Dont care what anyone says there is a difference.

Wecome to cs mate. Cups are awesome. I just hope you dont have a black s3;)

Lmao i always thought he was a bit queeer ;) :slap:

+1 Ali took me out in his z4m at the weekend and the acceleration is immense. Proper neck throwing back job. Although the cup is quick it doesnt come close.
