What do you mean Ex OB ? It does have four holes down beside the gear stick I mean- I think it may have been one of these new boxes(trackers) some insurance companies offer to lower premiums for younger drivers ,nothing fancy. I could possibly be wrong .Just a guess. This is the cable -...

Solved. After ripping my car apart chasing this cable it led to under the passenger seat with nothing attached to it. My guess it had some sort of tracker in it for the insurance..

After looking at that it looks quite roughly done to be factory fitted. im thinking its possible someone's attempted to fix the poor radio reception with a second aerial instead of just replacing the base. Going to take the head unit out and check.

Nope. It just unscrews , I'll try and get picture uploaded without the aerial on.

84,000 - 86,000. Bought with minimal history, but have very quickly built up quite a pile of receipts. Got my cam belt done as soon as I bought it as there was no history. Got it done by a mechanic friend so no proof of them done , only the old parts. I'm guessing this will put a lot of people...

:approve:

Nope. It doesn't affect the radio either on/off. I'm stumped as well just going to buy a cup spoiler and try to forget about it:mad:

Finally got a photo...

Tdc sensor needing cleaned would be my guess. Take the air box out , above the gear box you will find a black sensor mounted on a metal bracket held on by two 10mm bolts. Take take that off and clean the plugs with wd40 and clean the little metal magnet on the bottom it's probably choked with...

I don't think so l33 ? I get a very poor signal on fm/am channels either way. As I say it looks factory fitted , was there any sort of factory extra it could be ? This is the only picture I've got , I've tried to zoom in on it but it's hard to see..

Same symptoms as I had. The engine will start to splutter (not firing on all cylinders ) when the alternator is failing to charge the battery and eventually it will cut out. I found it would start misfiring when the battery got below 8v and in my case , sometimes, revving it high would spark...

I'm not sure , it looks brutal whatever it is. I hope it's not some sort of tracking device. I'll get a picture when I'm home.

I have the standard aerial on the roof then a small stubby aerial on the spoiler. I've no idea what it's for and it looks awful. I went to remove it but it looks factory fitted... Any ideas ?

Alternator on its last legs. I had the same problem, if you buy new I recommend going direct to renault. I had problems getting the correct one from motor factors and ended up paying just under what what renault want for a standard unit. I had 3 wrong units , Bosch and 2 x Valeo and they...

Boom replacement alternator ( free of charge) and its fixed. Just if you were genuinely interested...

Certainly not throwing money at it , I put it down to the alternator being faulty following a few tests with my multimeter and had a auto electrician look at it this morning and he agreed. Getting a free replacement tomorrow afternoon so will soon find out. The alternator is showing it's...

Membership well spent if anyone is interested I'm getting a replacement alternator to hopefully cure the problem..

Hi all , I have a problem with my ph2 172 where the battery light starts off flashing every now and then eventually ( around 30 minutes of driving )most, if not all my dashboard warning lights glow then eventually the car misfires then cuts out with a dead battery. If I rev it up it will...

Hi all not posted on here in awhile, I've recently purchased a ph2 172 and have had nothing but problems. After towing it home after the alternator failing I've replaced the alternator, radiator , battery and just got the timing belt kit done - all within a week. The Exciter wire(?) coming from...

if its your car i think the place was called grange gardens or grange place . I saw it before i started coming on here, looks pretty good. Its hard to think it used to look like pic 1.
