Re: Clio 172 Ph2 stutters and shuts down in idle. Just shuts down while driving. Help
I hope it didnt lean out too much. I dont think there was any detonation or anything like that. Compression is good across the head
Re: Clio 172 Ph2 stutters and shuts down in idle. Just shuts down while driving. Help
OK, the problem is now fixed!!
turns out it was the fuel pump! we attached a monitor for real time monitoring of the fuel pressure. normal pressure in the system was 2.5 bar which lower than the 3 bar...
Hello.
So my Clio 172 ph 2 started having this weird problem.
Whenever the A/C is turned on, after a long (50-150kms) drive it will start to shut down during driving. It sometimes also stutters at idle, loosing rpms, then shuts down.
The car was serviced at the main Renault workshop here, and...

as far as i know the GDI kit is somewhere around the 3.5K mark and not 5K.
Also the GDI ones are DTH (Direct-To-Head) TBs meaning there is no intake manifold between the TBs and the head. K-tec ones are not like these and require a manifold.
not saying which one is better or worse, just sorting...
There is an italian company who makes a few cams profiles for the clios.
They are called Colombo&Bariani www.colombo-bariani.com
Cams i think are around 600euro from them. many ppl praise them.
Also Shrick cams supposed to be very good but also expensive (800 pounds or so)
Hi.
I have a problem with my 2003 Clio 172.
When I press the brake pedal the fog light lamp on the dash comes on for a split second. Sometimes it stays on for more then a split second but never very long.
Also, Sometimes during hard accelration 2 lights in the middle of the dash light up (cant...
UPDATE :
7 Hours after the incident I went to the car to take a look under the hood.
I tried to start the car and it started fine, no STOP light and all is fine. I revd it up to 5500rpm and it took it without any problems.
When I started to drive it to park it next to my house I engaged the...

Hello all. Dont know what I wouldve done without this wonderful community :)
Anyway, my 2003 Clio 172 just "died".
I knew the clutch was on its way out, and during some heavy driving the other day there was a burnt smell, but the car went fine. Today (41degC outside) I came back from restuerant...
Hi. My 2003 clio 172 which is all standard has recently got new tyres and wheel alignment along with front balancing. Before that it would judder at 130km/h and was pulling to the left. Now its all crisp and straight, much better then before. The only problem is when I press the brakes at slow...
I dont mind them not lowering the car as im not after looks, only handling.
Though general physics dictate that the lower the center of gravity the better grip it will have, so perhaps some lowering is essential...
Hi. Recently i was offered to buy standard cup springs to fit my standard non cup 172. The seller says they will firm up suspension and are much better then the non cup springs.
Is this true? Are they any good? Are they good compared to aftermarket springs such as eibach or the likes? Thanks!
Here they have just added to the police arsenal the Bee radar which is installed on the police cars and can intercept your speed while the police car is moving (i.e. tailing you) and even from the back (i.e. you tailing a police car). It is the most annoying of all speed traps as you can have no...
Here in Israel the detctor called Valentine 1 is the best. It also covers the pop mode which the new Bee radars use. It has been road tested many many times alone and against other detectors and was found to be the best. I dont have one yet, because of its rediculous price here in israel (like...
Hello guys. This clutch kit seems awfully cheap. Is it any good?

What would be a reasonable amount of money for developing this?
Is it a feasible option for some1 to do it on their own with the technical help of a tuner like urself via correspondance? My main problem is the lack of a good (or even OK) aftermarket ECU tuner/programmer, unless I go motec but...
