You'll regularly see my black 182 around bowl xtreme as I work in Perdiswell so I'm there 5/6 days a week, though I live in Kidderminster now

Yeah we found it, thanks, sadly doesnt seem to have been the coil pack though!

Hi there, just replaced the coil pack on my 04 plate 182 (was misfiring) now when I start it up the engine is over revving. My friend thinks it might be an air leak or that the air flow sensor or something else might have become disconnected when we took the engine apart but I wondered if you...

[/URL][/IMG] Sorry to hijack can anyone tell me if there should be a seal or a gasket on here? Have replaced the cool pack, put back together and it's over revving, suspecting an air leak or a dislodged air sensor <a...

So do you think the timing belt went under the pressure of the gearbox breaking? Obviously it's bent all 16valves now and caused got knows what other damage so may ask for a replacement engine swell as gearbox what do you think?

I didnt take it back to the original garage because that's in Birmingham and I was approaching Droitwich and didn't want it to seize on the Motorway, Fred was the closest place at the time I have spoke to the garage who are happy to just replace the gearbox at no cost to me but have suggested...

Hi All Please feel free to shout and jeer at me as I'm not too clued up on all this but this is briefly what happened: The driveshafts needed replacing on my car, I took it somewhere to have them replaced and in the process of doing this they drained the gearbox oil, it seems they failed to...

Hi all My Clio developed a grinding noise from the engine the other night, its quite loud and if i had to guess i'd say it sounds like one of the pulleys attached to the cam belt, any ideas..?

Hi, probably a really simple question, my 172 phase 2 has Xenon lights like most i suppose but Ive been confused when looking for a replacement bulb as a friend told me mine were gas emitting bulbs as opposed to something i can purchase from halfords, Halfords say not, help!

Thats what I thought, maybe cos of the central column to the bottom of the steering wheel they need to push that to one side to use the clamp

It wasnt before I took it in this morning, it was perfectly straight

I'm not expert.. I had two new tyres on the front of my car this morning and they did alignment, balance etc... but now when i hold the steering wheel straight whilst driving, it goes slightly right, so to go straight I have the keep the steering wheel slightly to the left, if I took it back can...

My 02 plate clio 172 ff has just passed the 99,000m mark, I'm gutted, less than 1000m to go and she'll have done 100,000m. I check pistonheads and autotrader to see what price mine would fetch but never see any with more than 100,000miles on the clock. The time will come to sell it soon and...

I was the 02 plate Silver 172 :)

Yeh, I def wanna do it again but doubt i'll improve on the 15.5 run, shes on 94000 miles now so dont wanna make a habit of drag racing for the remainder of my ownership of this car

Hi All Went to my first RWYB drag strip day on saturday and got a few videos, me in my Clio 172 mk2, my cousin in his reyland escort cosworth and his mate in a modified Fiesta RS Turbo, here are my videos from the day, excuse the quality of some of the video work as my girlfriend filmed the...

Thanks for the advice, it did occur to me that they may have done a botch job but didnt want to jump to conclusions

Hi Guys After having my rear pads changed last weekend prior to my cars MOT my ABS light has come on, so now I'm without ABS, I'm not sure why, I guess its time to get my car serviced now. The worrying part is when I start the car, begin a journey and the ABS light is off, then when I brake...

Convoyed with this 182 upto J5 of the M42 for Shirley/Solihull, i was in a Silver Ph2 172

Well I have to say Im looking to go the Clio V6 route after this one so yeah I think either Black or Blue just because the side Air Vents dont stand out that much in Silver and thats a big characteristic of the car

Yeh mine was a spur of the momenty decision, was the only 172 in the used car dealership and was love at first site but wouldnt say no to a black or blue, you'll always want what you dont have though i think

lol my car could be mistaken for either of yours, are silver 172 ph2 that common haha

Lol thanks, I did think it was a bit poor u couldnt just type in your registration, you proved me wrong :D

A whole fiver more than i paid last year then lol but has that not changed with the 2.5% reduction in VAT?

Hi, my car tax is up at the end of Jan and just tried to look up the price of a years car tax on the website but as I dont have my V5 with me i'm unsure of my cars carbon emissions '02' plate 172 FF

I thought I'd decided my choice of tyre on the Black Circles website as I intend to replace all my tyres this weekend, then I came accross this thread, took me ages to decide the Brand of Tyre now I'm unsure what size to get :(

Had the cheek to chase me in a yellow leon, i pulled over in Scott Road and your car was full of (including you) fit looking blonde women :D so if you read this, probably never will... get in touch :P

They do say that the N95/N96 is a direct competitor for the iphone and in some cases is better (especially camera resolution) but Nokia are working on a touchscreen phone and if its not as good at/better than the iphone then I could see no point in them developing it, maybe its worth waiting...

I'm in Solihull, have an 02 plate 172FF in silver, registration ends in VYL
