Sounds like it's a must then from what everyone has posted. Shame that payday is 2 days away!
Is it simple to use? I have a Simota induction kit and a KTR ULTRA PERFORMANCE 182 EXHAUST SYSTEM, so i would be looking to tweak the fuel and air mix to suit.
Anyone know if this fastchip kit would be good for a 182 and if it would be safe?
I have a few mods on my Clio 182, IE induction kit and exhaust and thought this might make it run that bit smoother.
Anyone know of this kit or any one used it...
Had a look at where the cable goes in to the t/b and it was not stuck open. moved it round a bit and it stoped but still got the problem if you know what i mean.
Car goes in to Peterborough Renault tomorrow. Will let you know how this goes.

I don't think the problem is the cable as it started reving with the old cable on. That one snapped so i got it replaced and still have the problem. When i finnish work tonight, i get the car to rev a bit and then i will have a look at the black accel wheel on the throttle body.
Will let you...
Had the cable raplaced a little while ago, don't think that is the problem.
It is the MK 2 Phase 1 clio.
My local renault dealer is going to give me a refund for saying they had fixed the problem but they hadn't.
Any more info, feel free to type.

Just called my local dealer (Peterborough) and they told me it would take 4 hours to do the work and program the throttle bodys. I called the Renault garage in Northapton and they told me it would take max of 1 hour to fit the part and about 30mins to program it.
Watch out for the dealer in...
Get in. Thanks for that. Will give 2 renault garages a ring in a while and find out what how long they will recon to change it.
I think my local dealer is ripping me off.
Will let you know how this goes after 4.

Sweet as. If i get a new set of throttle bodys from renault under my waranty, i should be able to install it myself.
Do brand new ones need setting up if you know this?

Has anyone had a problem with there 172 contiune to rev at about 1500rmp after you have taken your foot off of the accel. To make it stop, all you have to do is tap the accel peddle.
I have has this problem for about 2 weeks now and is starting to get anoying.
Renault has told me i would...
Sorry for the late reply. I got the wheel off of EBAY and it cost me only £30. Bargin! The airbag witres are just in the centre on the steering wheel, fit nice and neat in there.
the silver thing on the dash is a rev gauge and shift that i still need to wire up. I have tried to wire it up to...
Thanks for the repllys peeps. Got my new steering wheel on the car now, looks sweet!

Thanks for the help!

Depends on the garage you go to.
Some people can charge the earth and some can be cheep.
Give a local garage a quick call and they should be able to tell you.

Can anyone give me the basics on how to remove the standard steeringwheel and how to install a new one.
Not to sure how i put the new one on. I think i need to pull of the middle bit of the wheel where the airbag is but i don't want to set it off.
If anyone can let me know how to do this...
Think the way ahead is coilovers. Will be the next thing i buy for the car!
Any recomendations?
Fancy that! What a small world. Will have to meet up some time!
Do you come down Bourne way alot?

Hello peeps. I have a Clio 172 with 16" alloys and lowered 30mm but it handles s**t!
