Alright Guys,
I have 172 cup mk2. Just had the circlip replaced in the diff as it let go. Now Im experiencing gear changing problems. I've always been gentle with the box but when I'm coming down the box (5 4 3 2 1) for some strange reason its becoming a little difficult to get them in yet...
Thanks guys,
car is currently in the garage and they have confirmed that it is as you said! parts on order and then car will be put back together!
Im a bit dissapointed that this has happened to me but hey at least i dont need a gearbox!
Thanks very much guys!!!!
Just out of curiosity, does this job require the gearbox out?
I've got a local garage doing the job who I know I can trust and have already briefed them on the job. I don't want them stinging me on labour costs!!!!
Thanks for the advice
lemonnobby,
thanks for the info, read the thread from a while back of a guy with the same problem, not sure if he had the same car but im mechanically minded but just cant be bothered doing this myself as i dont have time. Ill take it to a trusty local garage and tell them of the problem and...
thanks for the swift reply :)
i just read a thread about the circlips on the shaft inside the diff breaking/replacing?
ive had no gearbox problems with changing or whining it just like something went click and loss of all drive, i know the clutch and box are working fine because while...
Hi guys i hope someone can help
i was steadily accelerating off a roundabout and i lost all drive. engine still works fine, gearbox still works and feels fine, clutch doesnt feel different. whilst driving i put it in 4th and the speedo still worked but no drive. Got the car home and got the...
Do you have any idea what that evo is!!!!! That my friend is Norris Designs (sign in background) customized Evo running something in the region of 850 -900+bhp with shortened wheelbase, made into 2door and roof chopped. Its an unbeleivable spec and you have to see this thing go to appreciate...
I am still experiencing this problem! when i'm lining it up (NSF) and turning it to lock it in place it keeps popping out still when driving so I'm going to have to take the whole light cluster out cause i think somethings missin or been to rough with it! I've checked it many times with OSF to...
What's that clarkson thing?
Sadly I took the day off work yesterday to eat up some roads and enjoy the noise! Was going to ask you If it would be possible to buy the centre silenced pipe seperately so i could see how much it will quiten it for when i have to use the car on a long journey...
FAO Fred,
Previously fitted the
"Clio 172 MK2 / 172 Cup (Clio RS Ragnotti) Road Exhaust System (LOUD)"
to my 172 cup and just recently purchased and fitted the
" Clio 172 / 172 Cup (Clio RS Ragnotti) De-Cat / Link Pipe"
What a noise it produces! The car is purely a toy which i use...
As per title, Have a 172 and looking to paint inlet manifold around the badge (engraving....whatever the right word is?) What is the best paint to use? does it have to be heat resistant?? I've seen pics where people have painted the background on the manifold and chromed/polished the writing...
that's not remapping an ecu, thats having it chipped. I want my car set up to suit my modifications whilst engine is running on rolling road by skilled mechanic/engineer playing with fuelling and timing and whatever else he may do to get the most out of the engine
I want to take my car to a reputable rolling road place to have it re-mapped. Im not after a pre-programmed upgrade or chip as i would prefer to spend the extra for my ecu to be fine tuned to suit my mods.
Who do you guys recommend. Im based in Shropshrie but don't mind travelling cause it...
Depends if you want to drive economically or not! Being a learner driver im guessing you won't be driving fast for a while. No one can tell you that in first gear you have top change at 21.5658mph for uptimum shifting!
Advice from me is not to revv to hard when accelerating from a junction...
Im not the best person to answer this question but will help shed some light.
I once polished my williams rocker cover and used different grades of wet and dry sand paper. You need course to very fine wet and dry think the finest is around 2000 and the roughest around 500 but anyways. Start...
:)Hi Guys,
Have any of you experienced problems with wheel spinning in the wet with the front left drive wheel?
Lets say your accelerating hard in the wet in 2nd and the wheels start spinning my front left wheel always judders and feels unpleasant (never the right wheel):eek:
Is this due to a...
that looks sweet, isnt it a bit hairy making sure you measure and cut out the bumper in the right place?! thats what would worry me the most!
thats the kind of exhaust that im looking for but dont want the bumper cut.
anyone used yozzasport exhaust yet?
hi guys,
as above anyone got any pics of their 172mk2 with aftermarket exhaust and what do they think of fitting? sound doesnt bother me.
i own 2003 172 cup and looked at yozzasports
-YS018L Clio 172 MK2 / 172 Cup (Clio RS Ragnotti) Road Exhaust System (LOUD)
-YS018Q Clio 172 MK2 / 172 Cup...
just looked at members discount area and cant find anything on k-tec. do i just quote cliosport.net?
that 5% on an exhaust at 350+ is the postage so could do with it!!
Thanks for the comments guys! Its not perfect, there are a few marks on the car and i have noticed when driving the car hard round a tight corner that the tyre might be catching wheel arch slightly!
hi guys, picked this up last friday with just under 30k on the clock. It came with mintex pads all round and not sure if its got aftermarket springs on? ill look at a later time. I highly recommend mintex pads, fills you with confidance knowing the brake pedal only requires slight pressure and...
hi guys,
im hopefully (touch wood) picking up my new car, a 172 cup on friday!!!
anyways just wanted to know what oil some of you are using as I like to use high quality oil. anyone running mobil 1 fully synthetic or castrol etc and what grade oil are people happy with? was thinking about 5-50...
