    172 not pulling as it should

    Weird one this. I've always found my 172 nippy enough and holding of some cars to their suprise. When I boot it in 2nd it just goes without to much fuss and very very little torque steer. Other night I was in a rush and booted it in 2nd and it felt like I was fighting it. Torque steer was...

    172 5th gear whine.

    Well in the last week I've suddenly noticed the Clio has developed a whine in 5th gear. From 50mph upwards, at 75-80 you can really hear it. Any ideas? No knocks or whines in any gears other than 5th. Thinking first things first is dump oil and refill with fresh since I was going to do it...

    Running temp

    How long should it take for the temp to get half way up? I work 7 miles away. 3 miles 30-40mph and rest is motorway. It's only getting to temp when I get to work which I find odd. Any ideas? Seems a long time that's all. I won't step on the loud pedal til it's up at temp so couldn't play with...
