What do you think? Better build quality and bigger etc

Hi Got a ph1 172 and there is a rattle coming from somewhere. I've emptied spare wheel well and put everything back in. I've removed boot cover and check rear wiper. I've tigtened boot catch. It sounds like one of the rear seats isn't clipped back but does it if I unclip them and push em...

Are the rear discs the same on all 1*2. I have a ph1 one and Motorfactors seem very unsure on what to sell me. I know I need a set of bearing (or discs with them pressed in.) Was quoted £25 per disc and £25 for bearings. So be around £100. Does that sound right? Also I'm sure these are the...

Just wondered if these were any good? Safe or not...

I've been using SRP and EGP for a while now. Also got Nattys Blue Paste wax. Now my wash mitt has had it so thought maybe use Halford 3 for 2 offer and get wash mitt, SRP and EGP but don't know. Do Halfords do any decent wash mitts and is there a better sealant out there?

Snapped handbrake cable so got a QH one and it's inch and half too short! Got my money back tho. Anyone brought a non Renault one before? Mines a ph1 and spares place said thats the only one they do and where suprised it didn't fit.

I was wondering how hard it is to lead a new wire to speaker from headunit. I'm alright at getting headunit out and splicing a new wire and I've had door card off just need to find out how to get it from inside to the door. I have searched a bit but not really found a good answer with pics...

Hi Brought sub and amp and tested at home on a leisure battery hooked up to RCA outputs on my home stereo. Tried on normal RCA out and single sub out and getting distorted high pitch and intermitant bass. The sub moves a fair bit once in a while but don't sound right at all. I connected...

Hi After finding out standard HU has no pre outs for an amp I'm gonna have to buy one. I want something standard looking as I don't want it half inching. I'm looking to buy a sub and amp and only have £150 so second might have to be the way to go (fleabay) any suggestions on a setup. I've...

Ph1 172 2001 I done plenty of searching and even though the window was working and the motor works I think I need a new one. The regulator had come un bolted from the door. Was a rattle in door so I took it to bits. Window used to go clank half way down. Anyway bolted it back on and my mate...

Costco have some Oil on offer at half price. Packs of 3 litres. 6 litres would cost £22. Specially designed for Voltswagen FSI engines, fully synthetic. Thing is it's a great price but would it be no good for my engine? I think 30 bit means viscosity at normal running temp. So it would be...

What could be the cause. Changed plugs last year. Gave them a clean and not difference. Sometimes I turn key and starts straight away. Other times I'm cranking for 30 seconds. Tried hit gas etc but sometimes just don't wanna start but eventually does.

One on top of wing. Must be mechanic doing MOT and two great long ones on rear panel. They a two foot long and go down. Can't work how they got there unless it's kids sitting or leaning against it at night. Tried to remove with Scratch X and fill with SRP but they are still visible. Feel like...

Got these in back cause I one of back ones has blown: INFINITY 5022i 135 Watt 13cm What would you guys recommend for front circa £40. Wouldn't mind a bit more bass.

The remote joystick stereo control wheel is useless. I spin it one way and nothing happens, try again and it goes forward two tracks or sometimes backwards one! Is there a way to fix this without taking steering wheel off. Also I'm sure someone said you can turn AM radio of so it's just CD or...

How can I raise downpipe so it doesn't catch and bang. Had SS exhaust fitted. Swapped all engine mounts and adjusted them but the knocking always comes back. It's defo the downpipe. If I adjust the mounts it seems good a little while then it starts again. I heard about putting washers under...

Ph1 172 Tried GSF and they were useless.Tried local spares shop and they got me a pencil one. Shop reckons they'll get me one for tomz that will be right but I'm thinking should I of stuck with stealers. Was getting fed up of expensive parts. Don't think I'm gonna save much now and it won't...

So what would it be and how do I fix it. Engine cold, rev it squeak, aircon off. Once it's warmed up packs it in but does make a slight wooshing sound. Asked mechanic about the sound before it started squeaking and he said it was fine.

Really annoyed. Paid bodyshop as recommended by friend who has had spoilers etc done for him and his mates. I wanted some wing damage doing, the bonnet stone chips, and bumper that the lacquer had gone bad after being caught on ramps etc and was badly stone chipped. There was scores in the...

Was wondering if I could fit a IK inside as the air box is round. Would act as a heatsheild. I'm sure I've heard that the intakes are 60mm and the cup racers are 100mm so the actually box must be more than 100mm in diameter. Anyone fancy nipping out and measuring one or can you find it...

The ride does quite seem right and it knocks a bit on the nearside. My mate said since it's got 100k on it shocks might want changing even though they are not leaking. How do you tell and would you replace them with Ren ones or get some others?

I read on hear once Rich saying there is a shampoo that Vauxhall do thats better than Zymol but I can't find the thread. I'm looking for a good sub £10 shampoo thats better than Zymol. I also want a wheel cleaning brush thats not to harsh cause I'm waiting for my car to come back from body...

No before everyone tells me to use search I've hammered it. I got uprated dogbone from Hillpower in summer. Everything seemed sorted. Started knocking again so changed gearbox one and took battery off loosen other mount and pulled engine forward. Everything seemed good again. Winter comes...

One of my back speakers is giving up so I went out and brought some new ones. Now I looked on here to find which wire is positive. One without stripe on yeah. So I took one out and fitted it. No probs. Went to other side and one wire is brown and one green! So I took head unit out and the...

It's like a intermittent fault. It comes on. Sometimes goes off after a min sometimes 20mins. Someone said could be wiring under seat. Anyone else got any views?

I want to shine up the RenaultSport lettering in the engine bay, aircon pipes and maybe SS exhaust. I've seen that AutoGlym metal polish in Hafrauds. Is it any good (you know the stuff in a tooth paste tube) or should I get something else. Also would rubbing compund help shine up metal in...
