Hi guys I've come to sell beloved Clio 172 Iceberg Silver (Full Fat) and need some advice before doing so. My girlfriend has been driving it for a while and as such the car needs some cosmetics doing to it; it's an '02 with 106k on the clock and FSH but it has a couple of long scratches down...

Hi all I have a '02 full fat iceberg 172 which I'm thinking of selling. It's the usual spec, not had any mods other than silver vision repeaters. It's got a full service history and had the cambelt change at 72k, all receipted and booked stamped. the mileage is 91k (i know!). It runs a treat...

Hi guys, my FF '02 172 is due for it's 84k (i know!) service very soon. I've had 2 of the previous services done at the dealer, very expensive, the last big one I had done at West End in Leeds, very reasonable and good service. the only trouble is that it's a right trek to Leeds and I can't be...

Hiya everyone Quick question for ya, it's driving me insane! I have a media centre PC underneath the tv that I use for the usual sorta stuff. However, last week it suddenly seemed to stop outputting any sort of signal to the TV connection. I've tried the lead that connects the machine to the...

Like a pillock I've lost my front fascia for my Alpine head unit (think i left it at the the gym but they cant find it). So, I have everything else, boxes, receipts etc. Anyone know if there's anyway of getting a replacement? Cheers

Hiya I've just connected my Alpine 9850Ri to the iPod and it's working fine. While I had the HU out I also linked up the stalk and display using the two components supplied by Car Audio Direct (seem to be the popular choice on here). Now then, the stalk and display just are not working, and I...

I parked next to one (I have the same car) and my mate came into the gym after me saying the dude who owns it was scratching his head wondering why his locks had broken when he was trying to get into my car! Had to laugh!

As above, at Conisborough Health Centre near Doncaster, I was working there today. :D

Hiya Got me an '02 plate 172 and it's sooo bloody annoying that the trip comp always displays the total mileage on startup and then I have to manually change it to, say, miles left in tank every time I restart her. Any way to change the default? I'd look in the manual but she's an import so...

Howdy y'all I have an Alpine R850Ri HU in my '02 172 and I understand that central display unit (temp, clock etc) won't show the radio station/track info etc as it's an aftermarket model. However, I've been told that it should still display the word "Alpine" and the clock/temp. I don't have...

Howdy I wanna clean the suede (or whatever it is!) section of my 172 seats and also the same material portion of the doors. Whats the best way to do it without causing any staining or damage? Aside from hoovering that is! Cheers

Hey everyone, just a quickie. When I bought my 172 I originally looked at a Pug 206 GTi 180. Given the obvious similarities (that the right spellin'?!), which is quicker, the 180 or my (everyone's!) 172? Having had a few spats on the bypass with a couple I've always kicked their rear's but...

Hi there y'all, here's a curious one for ya.. Yesterday I changed the cigarette lighter on my mk2 172 cos the orange "holder" had been removed by the previous owner for some reason, so i fitted a new one to take it back to standard. Dead easy,unplug, plug new un in. But last night my...

Hey y'all, got a 172 on an '02 plate and it's all standard at the mo, which i like. However, I'm thinkin' of sprucing it up a bit cosmetically but don't want anything silly doing to it (stupid wheels etc etc), any of you guys have any ideas what I could do that maybe RenaultSport can...

Hey everyone, bit of a noob here so apologies if this thread isn't in the the right place! Got a 172 mk2, had it about 2 months and recently started to notice it was getting a bit sluggish when i put the foot down, seems to be a bit of a lag so I'm wondering whether to get some kind engine...
