Morning all. anybody know if there are any common issues with clutches and gearboxes with the 200 as I've driven my car for 3 days and on 2 of the days it's been difficult to put in gear. First time I couldn't and called the AA etc then took it to a garage but they test drove it and couldn't...

Haven't been on here in ages due to a couple of years trouble free motoring in the RB 182 cup. I've just recently acquired a 59 plate Clio 200 cup in white and love it! Loads of torque compared to my 182. Just seeing if there are known issues with paint matching as it would appear one rear...

After quite some time of trouble free mototing, my car is failing me again :(Basically i've swapped around my ktr decat with my cat several times for mot's etc and haven't had any issues. i have just brought and fitted the scorpion decat as it's a bit easier to fit then the ktr one. Now when the...

Had this squeaking noise for a couple of months now that would come and go every couple of days. Happens mainly from cold and would not return until next morning. But lately it squeaks a bit from cold and is worse when turning out of my drive, then continues down the road but when the car has...

Just serviced my car and I've got a strange squeaking noise coming from the engine when the engine is started from cold, only lasts about 5 seconds and the squeaking happens every 1/2 or 1/4 of a second. I've also noticed that the '5k' is hardly there and seems to running slower. The oil (Gulf...

After many years of using the forum I am now a paying member lol :). Anyway I had a BMC CDA fitter and after reading people keeping original air boxes and getting panel filters I decided to try it myself. Can't believe how much different that setup makes, chuffed with it now :). All I gotta...

Got a SS cat back system on my 182 and got a decat fitted as well but I'm disappointed that it doesn't pop and burble on overrun. Does anyone know if the Rs tuner remap will make it pop more etc or go to Jms for the pop and bang remap as I can't see the Rs tuner has a map like this :(

Got a KTEC Ultra cat back system (not silenced) now with a decat pipe fitted, BMC induction kit, HC front discs with DS2000 pads and a KTEC front carbon splitter :) so i'm thinking the next thing would be a remap. I'm thinking about the RStuner as i've heard good things about it on here and the...

Just brought and received a new KTEC Ultra 2.5" decat pipe and it looks fu**ed!!! does this look normal for a decat pipe and is the flange end meant to be at a slight angle??? http://i803.photobucket.com/albums/yy315/dtwst150/2bc9ba46.jpg - This was taken with the decat on a flat surface and...

Was driving 2 work fri morning and hear like a clattering of something underneath my car so thought nothing of it. Today I got my old cup nuts out the manfold for the fitting kit so decided 2 check oil etc. Popped the bonnent had a look and the pissing fuel rail had come off and was resting on...

Hi just wondering if the clips below sound normal. Got a tiny blow on the cat/manifold connectors even after a new kit, although couldn't get the deep cups out and are still using the old ones in the manifold :(. When flooring the car it makes that raspy/rattle noise, but driving smoothly into...

Hi, just posting this for a mate as he has the above system without centre silencer with standard cat on a 182, basically he gets "whooshy" noise from under the car when flooring it but poodle around he doesn't get the noise. Is this normal as he checked for exhaust blow but it doesn't seem to...

Hi everyone, I'm back again. Originally had a clio 172 cup, had to many issues with it so went and got a fiesta ST which was to slow even when modded and now I have a clio 182 cup. Just fitted the KTec splitter and just removed the fogs and fitted the cold air feed trumpets. Some pics below, let...

Has anybody made a guide on how to change the oil and filter for a 172 cup, had a look but couldn't find anything.

Went to GDI today to get the cam belt and aux belt done etc as they needed replacing. They did an excellent job.they were really nice chaps and i'd like to thank the boys down there. I would recommend them to anyone. Car doesn't sound like a diesel any more lol and it feels more responsive! So...

I've got a clip of the sound my engine is making while at a stand still, the knocking/tapping seems to pick up when rev'd abit but doesn't get any louder. Anybody know what it may or may not be as i'm freaking out :mad:. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=88OJ7dgFdCk I hijacked someone elses thread...

Driving into work today and hit 80mph down a dual carridge way and the car gave off 3 dongs. Drove about 5 miles and then it gave 3 dongs at 50mph. This has seemed to happen when I put the car in the diagnostic mode where you hold down the button on the right hand stalk and then turn on the...

I'm getting a sort of knocking noise at idle and during acceleration, sounds like a diesel. Is this due to the engine mounts needing to be changed and if so is there a guide with pictures. Tried searching but couldn't find a guide, just small sections.

My 172 Cup is gonna be 5 years old at the beginning of March and has covered about 55k. Just wondering how much is it gonna cost roughly to get the cambelt, Aux belt and full service from Renault. I know it's gonna be alot so thats why i'm saving now lol. Unfortunately this means my Yozza...

Has anybody got any pics with the non stealth yozzasport exhaust fitted. Realllt wanting to get the loud version but i just wanna see a few pics before i buy.

Anybody got one of these exhausts, the twin one, as i'm just interested on if there loud (love loud exhausts), how easy/hard they are to fit and if they are a good quality exhaust. Did a search but couldn't really find anything.

I need 2 new fronts on my 172 cup. Got a mate who work's for Pristine Tyres in Woburn sands. He said he has got some new sporty Marshall tyres in and has quoted my £75 for both. Anybody know if the brand is any good or the newly released sport tryes are any good?

Just had a standard replacement exhaust fitted about 2-3 months ago now, as it broke off in the usual place just behind the backbox. This standard exhaust which was replaced has broke off were the first exhaust mount is welded onto the backbox and has left a whole there as well as the exhaust...

Hi, does anyone know how to access the top 2 pipes of the part (don't know what it's called or the part number) where the brake lines run from the front of the car into the block which has 4 brake lines, 2 of which run to the back calipers. I have undone the nut slightly on the bottom 2, fluid...

Hey guys, anybody know how or if you can undo and remove the rubber hoses on top of the rear caliper as I need to check the line as I cannot get brake fluid from the bleed nipple even if totally removed. Cheers inadvance for your expert advise.
