Hi guys My friend is looking to buy a what I think is a 172. all points lead to it being a 172 but when the reg is typed into an insurance quote it comes up as 182?

My 172 failed its MOT on the Front brakes binding, now I've had my callipers taken apart cleaned up and put back together by God-Speed. Filed my pads down slightly as they were quite tight and ive put it all back together and it's still a struggle to spin the discs by hand.

Hi all,
I finished my last session at combe last week, and I noticed that the clio was idling at around 2k. So I thought the spring in the throttle body has given up again.
So I've bought a Russ 16v super greased up TB and now the car is still idling at 2k but is now hunting?!
Do I have to...
I've just gone to switch on my xbox and it's freezing on the dashboard screen?
I've has a quick look on the internet and it says to remove the HD and then try it. It's not freezing then, but it says I need to clear the cache? But I can't do this unless the HD is in the Xbox and if it is it...

Hi I'm currently removing everything from the interior to get it ready for painting, I want to remove the side impact sensors, but my friend said they may be motion activated?!?
Will they set off the airbag if I move them?

Cheers all.:cool:
Is there any tricks to getting these out of the hubs?
I've soaked them in WD40 and used mole grips to try and wiggle it out, no luck so far.
Is it a case of keep on trying, or shall I get the hammer out?
Out of interest are they the same across the range?
And could rear ones go on the front...
How the hell can I get this nut off? Being trying for a good hour.
I have no suspension no brakes, so can't put the car on the floor tried a wireless impact gun with no success and a biggish bar.
Help. :(
P.S sorry for the poor picture and the weak Paint skills. :(
Hi all,
I'm changing my hubs on my Ph1 172 to 182 cup hubs.
My question is are all the bearings the same size? Or are there differences between the ranges?
thanks :)
Hi,
I've just bought a 13 row mocal oil cooler for my 172.
Now i'm planning to do an oil change at the same time, with the oil cooler fitted will I need to put more oil into the car?
Silly question I know, but i'm not 100% sure.
thanks in advance. :)

Does anyone know of the car? Is he a member on here?
Also I "Thought" that a clio running that much power would need stronger internals or a rebuild? But the Owner has said this...
Hi,
i've done a quick search but I'm unable to find a definite answer.
I have a Ph1 172 and i'm having starting problems, I'm guessing it's the immobilser/decoder ring problem as when it doesn't start the immobiliser light flashes.
Now what I want to know is if I was to get an unlocked ecu...
Thought It was about time I got a project diary on the go as I've had the car 3 months now.
So quick bit of info when I bought it.
