Does anyone on here know which side the second problem down (rear right-hand inertia wheel circuit) is talking about? is it passenger side or drivers side?
Please see attached.
Reason i ask is i need a new selt belt pretensioner unit for the rear and am now confused as to which side for...
4 bolts under the bonnet, two down by the skirt. 2 inside the door, and about 3 inside the arch from what i remember and still wont come off.
Will take bumper off tomorrow.... easy???
Ive done a search and found not a lot therefore decided to start a thread as im sure someone knows and will save me time!!
Do i have to remove the headlights/bumper to replace the front drivers side wing?
Ive undone about 20 bolts and the wing is coming off but is still clipped in at the front...
Started off life as standard... although think the sportlines were fitted in this photo
how it is today after a quick wash... (iPhone photos so apologies)
Needs a few bits doing and a machine polish which im hoping to find someone on here to do...
Anyway hope you like.
Im in exactly the same situation, in feb when its time to renew im going to look into a 172 over my 1.4. I get bored, the same as most people, and just crave more power. If i can afford even with a few sacrifices im going to go for it. I only get about 35mpg atm cos i drive it pretty hard so...
if you go through Renault, a lot!
if you do it yourself, buy a second hand seat (i got one for £30) and get your airbag comp reset; people do it on ebay for £45...
yep not too worried about removing. Guessing once the ecu is out the car isnt drivable?
still debating whether it would be cheaper/easier to replace the airbag itself instead of getting 2 new front seats.
if i did this: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/RENAULT-CLIO-AIRBAG-MODULE-EXCHANGE-SERVICE_W0QQitemZ150366870218QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item2302905aca&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14
and bought a new seat with airbag intact obviously, then plug it all back in and it'll be dandy...
Right, passenger seat airbag has gone off due to me hitting a curb at speed! duh! Anyway just finished replacing the broken parts ie wishbone and strut and the car is running fine. Now need to sort the airbag part:
Few queries:
1. Can i buy an 'airbag ecu' second hand and just bolt it in? if...
Had a little fight with a kerb last night at quite a bit of speed and written off the drivers side front shock absorber (and the wing, arch liner, alloy wheel, tyre and probably wishbone:dapprove:) anyway had it off today and its bent so going to need to replace the baby. The LH side is fine...
spotted along speldhurst road in southborough, kent today about an hour ago, was parked up.
Slowed down to have a look, was ridiculously shiney and clean! very nice.
anyone on here?
Ha loads of em out and about! i live in t wells and spend loads of time on the road but only seen a few Monaco Blue 172s and one RB. Did see a black 197 in 7aks the other day outside The Chequers Pub, think it was the 'Magic' man.
