I bought a handbrake cable for my ph1 172 from Euro car parts in Leeds where i queued for about 40 minutes, crawled under my car, burnt myself on the exhaust, and the cable is the wrong length. Does anybody have any recomendations of where to get one from? How much am I looking at to get one...

The ABS on my ph1 172 is p***ing me off. I've got ds2500 pads in the front. Once they are warmed up i can stand on the brakes and get a nice squeal out of all 4 tyres and a bit of ABS. The stopping power is amazing. And i get roughly the same in the wet, just a bit more ABS and less stoppy...

just tested my internet connection at work and was quite surprised I recon it would be a lot faster over xmas when all the students arent all on facebook. It means i can download 1Gb in about 1min30s! Too bad they block bittorrent and the computers are pretty locked down

Im with direct line so cant modify my car (not too bothered!) Need to replace my exhaust but hoping to keep the car for a long time so not too keen to put a Renault one on! Ive seen some cheapo looking non-stainless original equipment exhausts for 172's (cheapo motor-factors looking ones)...

Had my back box off last weekend and i cant have done the 8mm bolt up very tight as its now missing! I need to see if they have one here at work... Does anybody know what thread it is M5, M6?

Driving home on saturday and my back box fell off. Luckily i had an 8mm spanner in the car so took it off and put it in the boot. Had load sof tools at my parents house but wasnt intending to go back there until nearly christmas so i thought i could just drive it for a month or so with no back...

The previous owner of my car had some cheapo wipers on the car. They are so crap and the blade is not long enough so the plastic tip has made nice scratches up the side and along the top of the screen in a nice arc. They arnt too deep, is there anything i can do?

Ive owned my 172 for a few weeks now but today was the first time ive had a chance to give it some stick in the wet. The grip is amazing, ive driven ABS cars before but im used to my valver so im very impressed with the stopping. The ammount of speed you can drop simply by jumping on the...

over the past 1000 miles my wheel bearing noise has been getting louder so i decided to jack it up to work out which one it is. the two rears seemed fine which was annoying. the the OSF didnt appear to make any noise when spun up and no play. the NSF however didnt spin freely. took the...

Ive seen a few aftermarket ecu's installed in clios but the renault ecu is always left in. Why is this? I troubleshooted one 'professionally' installed omex system that was a fire waiting to happen. Ive been thinking about making up an adaptor which would plug into the original ecu plug...

I used to own a 1991 valver which became a black hole for my money. I decided that if i was going to own a black hole, it should be a newer, safer, faster and more comfortable one. Last week I bought a ph1 172, X reg, 63k miles, cambelt done 18 months ago, passed MOT 2 weeks ago. The interior...

My primary machine is a small laptop, it has been fine until the last week where ive spent 7 12-15hour days writing code and bits on a 12 inch screen. Im not rolling in money at the moment but this weekend my eyes have been so tired ive acutally had real problems. anyway, ive been looking into...
