Hi Everyone, Looooong time no post at CS. Been restricted by thought police at work. Just wondering if you knew what should be included in a B service above the normal oil n air? Book shows aux belts are 'optional' thou mine are already squeeking. So do they want 250 just for oil air...

Hi Guys, Can any one remember the Champion oil filter model number that was on the original oil filter? Ive had one fitted since then and it fits but its half the size. More than likely because its easier to get in. Thing is id prefer to stick with the same thing. Cheers Mav :)

Your sure ur disc arnt so thin there just heating up and burning ?

Walking round trafalga square this morning and what comes past... 2 crashed williams, mk 1 and a mk 3 both on the top of a massive car transport! I had a look and it looked as if they could have been in an accident together, they both had front drivers side impact damage! Anyone on here...

I dont know how much they are now but last year i went to showroom4cars.com, entered my CC card number, sent a cheque and hey presto.... 4 weeks later a spangly new black 172 was being carfully rolled off a truck onto my drive way. total cost... 11999 inc delivery to my door at a time i...

Will you guys please stop sl*gging off back to black! Its excellent for use on snowboards at dry ski slopes! :D

22 no ncb, as i had always been on my dads, 1599 with direct line. This year with one ncb and one year older 1092 with Elephant. The sale of my old RT only just covered the 1st years insurance on the 172!!! Aaaagggghhh Was worth every single penny though! LMAO at the Ztec S... Id rather...

SO basically do what i did, run it in very gently under 3500 for over 1000 miles. And also if ur impatient like me make sure you do those miles in a single weekend so you can CAIN it when u get back to work on monday morning!!!! Driving to newquay at 65 was the most frustrating thing i had...

Hi Guys, Its been a long time since ive been in the forum, so long in fact my car is now a year old and on 9000 miles. I dont want to start the whole oil debate for the thousandth time but when did u al get ur car first serviced? Renault said 18,000 miles or 24 months!!!! I changed my oil...

Is that what caused the slight crunch from 2nd to 3rd and the whine from 3rd to 4th when launching????!?!?! Is the clutch not disengaging properly?

OK ive gone and got the quote from AutoDirect again...the ones over 10k and i now have a screen shot. can someone host the pic? its a 140k jpeg. Its funny, they say its so simple, just click and give a deposit of 1000 and then 12 easy monthly installments of 998 !!!! mite put people of 172s...

Thats no typo! 10 big ones! 10k Ten Gs Any way you look at it i had to laugh! If i had actually called the company on the fone theres no way they would have ever even told me the figure on the screen! Computers dont get embarrased lol. saying that it was the worst of the 5 quotes they...

That the name i couldnt remember, Adrian Flux, ill give thema go. LOL Auto direct quoted me...... £10068 but came with free windscreen replacement. With a quote like that why look anywhere else! Actually has anyone else had stupid quotes like that? Last year the highest i found was...

Hello Peeps, Its the age old question of insurance for a 172. I cant believe ive had Angellica for nearly a year, ive just had my renewal though. Ive tried all the big companies and Elephant is the cheapest followed by direct line. Anyone know of any small compaies that specialise in High...

Mmmmm 230 sounds better. Is it just me or does the track of the megane look a lot wider than the clio? Has anyone here driven one? they look as if theyd handle well lowered a bit.

As sure as night follows day you guys go to south end on a weekend when im in Newquay. :( Mav

Ben, A bloke i know who works for ford design said the new frame which will accept 4wd (and hence allow a cossie version at last) should be released the end of 2004. The FRS was just a stop gap so people didnt keep moaning about the lack of a decent fucos. Never sure how true the stuff is...

Or is it they dont want a 260bhp megane dropping the sale of the Clio V6????:devilish:

Hello peeps, Long time no visit to the forum. I just read the megane RS thread and it started me wondering again about Turbos. Why do turbos when strapped on to most engines never seam to give as much power as you would expect? I mean look at the Type R for example, 198 from a NA 2 litre...

The best plate ive ever seen is T13 VOM. HOW COOL IS THAT!!!!! Shame it was on a crappy MGF. (for those who dont see the connection look at TI 3VOM in ur rear view mirror)

If you want to test a car where AC KILLS!!!! performance take out a Ka and start cruising at 55. Now turn on the AC and front and rear demisters. lol the speed drops below 50 straight away :o)

Sorry i meant more :$

Sorry for drifting topic clean... Have you considered NOS at all? For that you could get urself a decent progressive set up and afford the extra on insurance. Then you would still have the same car caracteristics as now but move oomphf just when you want to play Getaway.

_KDF where u going? I miss the snow :(

I cant figure it out either, Extra BHP and extra fuel economy. More speed + less fuel. I gotta get me one of those ecus for mine lol :D

I was going to revise for GCSE science but soldier soldier came on TV and so i didnt have time before going to bed. Spose an A wasnt bad lol

Why would smoking near oxygen be bad? Apart from the fact that your ciggies would burn up faster and the fact you would be able to breath a little easier theres nothing wrong at all with that.

So these are the people who we rely on to help us in time of need!!! I think some basic chemisty should be taught to all people who work with or want to preach law about fuels and vehicles. DOH! Well at least they are all consistently wrong about the whole explosive/fuel debate concerning...

If any of you guys want to see what your local police say then just go to the main goverment police site (cant remember what it is but google always remembers) and then select your county and then on the contact button. They have a special section to ask traffic questions, well essex police do...
