    Difference between interior door pulls???

    Can someone just confirm me that the interior door pull on the drivers comes into two different sizes? My car is Jan 2001. The door pull was previously damaged. I bought a second one, sprayed it silver however the electric window switches will not fit into the spaces. I’ve heard that the 98-01...

    Another TB Q

    Thanks for all the replies lads. :) I’ve one more Q. The last few months I’ve felt the car isn’t as quick as it should be. Could this be an air feed problem or likely the throttle body? It’s difficult to describe but it just feels less free revving and a slight reluctance to accelerate. Its...

    Another TB Q

    My 01 ph1 172 has been developing problems over the last few months which i assume are related to the throttle body. Its idling now at 2k rpm & engine is now hunting. I've also noticed one of the pipes from the airbox has perished. (Highlight in red below). I'm going to get a mechanic/mate...

    Door droppin'?

    sorry i meant wing! Thanks for the replies. :) When i used to have mk2's it never bothered me as although the door had dropped it would never rub. There's no play in the doors though. Door shut lines are ok but seem to have marginally moved closer to the wing on both sides over the last 6...

    Door droppin'?

    A bit of a strange one. Do the doors drop on Clio’s? I have ph1 low mileage 172. Its never been crashed or damaged. However the when I open the passenger door it marginally rubs off the front ring. Same on the drivers side but not as bad. I’ve had mk2 Golf’s in the past & some of them had...

    Phase 1 172 Magazine Reviews?

    I used to keep old magazine reviews but no longer have them. Does anyone know if there are any reviews on the net, preferably in pdf format of the phase 1 that I can print off. Something along lines of CAR/Auto car/EVO etc. Thanks :D

    Two fiddley questions

    thanks for the reply. I guess i'll leave the window. There is some overspray on the outer seal which is really pissing me off. I found out the other are rivets. Unsure how to remove the rear bumper or is it even worth the hassle.

    Two fiddley questions

    Two fiddly questions I had some minor body work carried out on my 172 a while back. After giving it a thorough clean I’ve noticed there is some over spray on two areas: 1) The 4 flat clips that lie at the top of the rear bumper and are out of view once the boot is closed. These have now...

    As this is my first French car I was wondering if

    small things like oil/air filters are worth buying from a GSF or should just buy direct from Renault? Also thinking about getting a pair of top mounts from the GSF.:S
