    172 Gearbox DIY Repair Troubles

    Noisy power steering.

    Yeah definitely must have been a trick we missed 🤦🏻‍♂️

    Noisy power steering.

    Yeah we did the same and still seemed stuck, but came straight out when we removed the AC pump (his isn't connected, just acting as another idler pulley 😅) Like there didn't seem to be enough room for it to drop down here

    Noisy power steering.

    @Flob did you remove the AC compressor? I'm sure when we did Lee's, there wasn't enough space between the steering pump bracket and the AC for it to drop down and come out 🤔

    Noisy power steering.

    Oh yeah easy. Obviously need a way of compressing the aux tensioner (heavy duty jubilee) and then just various spanners and sockets. Space is tight in places. You'll have to unbolt the pulley from the pump to get it out.

    Noisy power steering.

    Yeah did one on Lee's a few months ago. First time doing one, bit fiddly but not too bad if you have all the tools. Worth flushing the system with fresh fluid before fitting the new pump.

    Home cctv and phone apps? recommendations please!

    Assuming you're wanting to record the video? A network video recorder (NVR) will provide the power you need for the camera.

    Probably not, I'll give you £10 for it. Deal, nice one.

    Get it on the stiffer setting, all or nothing 😂

    But how's your shaft girth?

    The Dog Kennel

    Common for aftermarket shafts to not be as chunky in the middle. Only thing to watch out for is it bottoming out in the diff cup inside the box.

    Give the old one a pull and the new one a push to compress the cv end and see if it's any closer to matching. As @Klumpy Dumpy says it could just be down to age/wear.

    Brigsy's other cars - formerly kangoo 172 cup

    SRF for me, easy get a year to 18 months out of it.

    Airbag light help - midlands

    Yeah exactly the same with RSTuner.

    Airbag light help - midlands

    Easier with the resistors taken out and letting it tell you what's missing. Guessing that's what you did?

    Airbag light help - midlands

    I believe she's fitted Recaro Trendlines, so it will be seat airbags. I could do it if you were ever in the North West @Bubbles It can, but you may need Google Translate open as a lot of the menus/settings are in French 😅

    Making my hillclimb Clio look a little more exciting

    Get a load of off-cuts from a vinyl graphics place and do the BMW Art Car replica.

    Oil & Temp gauge

    Quick glance to see it. Had it set to turn yellow when over 100c and red over 130c.

    I had the digital Spa gauge on mine

    Gearbox oil

    TL4 box on the 200 holds 2.4L and the JC5 from the 182 holds 3.1L. That's from dry.

    Gearbox oil

    I use a pump for mine and takes about 10 mins to drain and refill. Much more expensive though, but it does 4-5 cars per year.

    Steering column lock issue.

    Good question. I've never messed with the column really. I know the lock barrel comes out, there's a grub screw holding it in and then I think you have to turn the key to remove it.

    Steering column lock issue.

    I don't think there's anything you can mess with when taking the wheel off which would affect the steering lock 🤔

    Home cctv and phone apps? recommendations please!

    I've got some old Hikvision cameras, i think 4-5mp, not the colourvu stuff. 2 cameras with a 1TB drive gets me 7 days of constant recordings. Depends how long you want to be able to go back. I'm sure you can blank off areas you don't want to capture.

    Sure i've seen people measure the Milwaukee 18v stuff and it's actually been more like 20v

    Some expert thoughts - 182

    Just seems odd for what looks like a pretty much standard car.

    Oil cooler? Where are the lines going to then? Oil coolers usually come off a plate where the oil filter is.
  28. Mr Trailer Man

    Some expert thoughts - 182

    Yeah could potentially be running a cooler on the low pressure return.

    What are the silver braided hoses in the engine bay for?
