    FAO Jeremy Townsend

    Hi Jeremy, I currently have a Mar 2003 1.6 Clio Dynamique. I have had the whole sunroof assembly replaced by my dealer (Glenvarigill, Dunfermline ... excellent daeler BTW). They have done their utmost to solve the problem, but it is still " creaking" under normal operation. Apart from this I...

    Well, I said I would do it a while back when I discussed it online with BenR and have now Ive lived up to my words. Finished the install last night. Did some temp tests today when the ambient was about 24 degs (which is pretty hot for Scotland!). Put the temp sensor next to the door mirror...

    K-Tec Rear Spoiler

    Has anyone fitted a K-Tec Koncept rear spoiler as shown below to their MK2 / 172? I think this looks pretty good but not over the top! According to the K-Tec website it fits on top of the existing spoiler and presumably it picks up the two top screw fixings at either side of the tailgate? Your...

    Chassis Dynamics Spring Kits

    Ordered a CAT back 2x3.5 Magnex system today at my local performance centre. Whilst I was in there I enquired about an Eibach Pro Kit. I was advised that this is a very good spring kit but a bit over-priced, probably due to being German manufacture / TUV approval etc. They recommended a Chassis...

    MK2 172 (01- ) Magnex Systems

    For those peeps that may be interested, After about three attempts I eventually managed to raise an email reply via the Magnex website re Full CAT back systems for the MK2 172 (Apr 2001 onwards). Twin & oval systems are currently only quoted for 172 (Jan 2000 - Apr 2001)...

    Renault Sport Clio Super 1600 Article

    Just got my Winter 2002/3 (No.161) Renault magazine through the post. Pages 61 to 65 hold an article on the Super 1600 Clio! A little strange but they are discussing this model alongside a dCi 80 (no offence to owners), but complete extremes!! If anyone is interested I can scan the article and...

    Magnex 6x4 Oval

    I would like to order a Magnex 6x4 oval cat back system for my 2002 172. However, my local Magnex dealer says the system listed (172 "00-" ) will not fit this model due to the shape of the rear valance. I noticed that Magnex have recently changed their website product listing for the 172 from...

    Renault Clear Repeaters

    On our Scottish meet today we visited the local dealer and seen a brand spanking new UK Clio 172 due for delivery. Was surprised to see that the Iceberg had clear side repeaters fitted. Perhaps Reno are snooping on this forum and listening to our opinions?? Anyway, now that Ive seen this there...

    MKII 172 Stainless Exhausts ....Again!

    Im thinking about replacing the stock exhaust on my Sep 2002 172 with on of these stainless jobbies. I think I have narrowed the selection down to Magnex and K-Tec. On the K-Tec website it shows the twin round tailpipe, but in the text suggests there is another tailpipe available. Any ideas. I...

    Engine whine on cold start

    Anyone noticed that the 2L MKII engine makes a louder whining noise than normal on idle when they start up from cold...not that loud but noticable. Normally lasts for a about a minute or so until the engine starts to heat up. Sounds like something to do with oil circulation/ timing gear...

    172 MKII Headlight Beam Adjustment

    Hi, The 172 2002 Xenon headlights are pretty awesome in terms of output when compared to the old halogens. However I feel that the beam adjustment appears to be on the low side, especially when driving down into dips in the road. At higher speeds (normal) I always want to click on the main...
