Been down to Kwik fit they put it up on the rams and have a look and shook the car around a bit, turns out my front disks have done and the drivers side ball joint has gone! He recons that could solve the problem and as they need doing anyway best way to go at the moment if it fixes it jobs a...

Hi Back in December I hit a curb which was covered by the snow (honest), this put a big whole in the tyre wall so I changed both front tyres and away I went. Since I have noticed a slight vibration when on the power but it has got progressively worse?!?! Now when I am on the power over...

Cheers for the comments, Yes sorry its Halfords BMW Sparkling Graphite. Its not the same colour as the wheels but its as close as i could get without taking the wheels into halfords or buying loads of cans and taking them back. I think its on KTR coilovers, its been a while since I bought...

If your talking to me, I have gone for the uprated ones and yes mine is the twisted type. Cant wait to get them on as it feels like I would get more support from my current mounts if they were mate out of haribo!

Yea that question has been put in the e-mail to them! Cheers about the RS Murray, I will give them a buzz tomorrow or Monday for a quote.

Hi I need to get all the belts done within the next 1000. My box crunches into 3rd so when I get the belts done and it’s all in bits I’m thinking about getting a recon box in with a new clutch n all. I’ve been on the dog n bone to a local company called Gearbox man. I was wondering if...

Just bought myself some of these, got the upper engine gearbox and lower gearbox mount, Group N Boom! Hopefully the 172 wont shake my fillings out when I set off from now on! I cant wait to get them fitted, will keep you all posted!! Pics to follow!

Ive changed mine, went to my local scrap yard got a new (old) wing mirror from him put it on changed the covers over bobs your uncle! Now tells me its bloody freezing!

Cool thought so just wanted to check. This place seems good to be honest, he is gonna give me 24k miles or 2 year warranty on the box and the clutch, which is always a bonus as the 172 tends to take more abuse that fritzels kids!

Will do cheers

Hi First and foremost, I was under the car (172 PH2) yesterday and I think my off side shaft has lost its gunk as it was all over the place, am I right in thinking the off side shaft can be replaced without dropping the gearbox oil? I had them both reconditioned last march so still within...

Hi Hopefully some1 will be able to help me? I was wondering if I wanted to add Cruise Control (CC), to my 2001 Clio 172 PH2 which didnt come fitted with CC? Also is it simply plug and play I.E is all the cruise control wires eg already included in the wiring loom? If so what would I...
