See this parked up in Bradford. It's not taxed as far as I can tell and hasn't moved in ages

Brand new in box, make an offer on ebay or on here. I will let it go if cheaper if it is collected this weekend. Cheers, Chris. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/290862815763?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1586.l2649

I bought a private plate from the DVLA and my Dad went to the DVLA office to transfer it on to the Clio for me today. I got pulled over on the way home by an ANPR equipped police car. Obviously I had all the documentation to prove all was present and correct. After looking over the car, I...

Evening, I have just returned from a 600 mile trip in the Clio. During the trip I had to brake suddenly a few times on the motorway and the brakes did not work anywhere near well enough, verging on dangerous. If I just held heavy pressure on the pedal, the brake force reduced and only returned...

Been looking at the values on Autotrader as I'm thinking of parting with my 172. I know what a car is advertised for and what is sells for are two different things but I came across this. It's advertised as a 172 Cup but the interior is wrong, it's got twin exhausts, climate control and I think...

My mums friends car has been having a few electrical problems recently. The battery started going flat every few days but when the AA Battery assist got it going the last time, she took the key out at home and the engine was still running. All the dash lights were off etc but she had to stall...

For the last week or so, I have been battling with insurance companies to get a reasonable renewal price living in a BD postcode. As people automatically think this postcode is a complete s**t hole it proved to be quite difficult. I have phoned specialist people like Sky Insurance who politely...

I have just tried to get a new quote for my 2004 172. The insurance database brings my reg number up as a 182 instead of a 172. The car was registered on 05/03/2004 and is definately a 172 as it has a spare wheel and a single exhaust. How can I get this amended on the insurers system? The...

I fitted my new exhaust as above a couple of weeks ago and have just got round to informing my insurance. They asked 2 questions about it: Does it make any difference to the sound? Does it increase BHP? Obviously the sound is now much louder so that is easy to answer. Having looked at the...

My standard exhaust is starting to blow a little on the small silencer next to the rear axle. It's been welded up a few times already so don't think it can be done again. I don't really want to buy a new one yet as I'm looking in to stainless options next early year. Does anyone know someone in...

My mates Dad owns a removals business, last night he had his full exhaust system stolen from his wagon inc cat plus loads of the body mounting brackets amongst other things. The expected bill is thought to be around £3k so is thinking of going through insurance. My question is, as he has a...

I had 2 new front Toyo T1R's fitted about 2 - 3 months ago on my 2004 172 and had the tracking done at the same time. I have only done about 2000 miles on them in that time. When I went to get the car MOT'd last Friday, it failed on the front tyres being bald on both inner edges which I had not...

After taking the engine cover off the other day, I decided to clean all the old oil that had been spilled from previous owners when topping the oil up. As I had the inlet off, I thought I may as well take a look at the spark plugs to see how they looked (replaced in the service in February with...

A few times recently, the above warning lights come on. Never while driving, just on start up. If I turn the engine off and start again, they normally turn off. Any ideas? Thanks.

Gave the 172 a clean last weekend. Used the following: Zymol Natural Car Wash (2 bucket method) Machine polished a few minor scratches out Auto Glym SRP P21s Paint work cleanser P21s Carnuba Auto Glym Extra Gloss Protection Auto Glym Tyre Dressing Any recommendations of any different products...

As above, my mate just bought it from an Evans Halshaw dealer in Durham. Looks to have had a hard life to be honest and wondered if anyone knows the history of it. Thanks, Chris

I am in need of a new cat back standard exhaust for my 04 172. The current kwik fit exhaust is 3 years old according to the receipt from the previous owner and does not fit properly (and it cost £490!). It seems to hit the rear axle whenever I have people in the back of the car and crack. It has...

Afternoon, I started up my 2004 172 this morning and it really struggled to idle, also sounds like a tank. Once it had warmed up the idle was fine but still sounds like a tank. Any ideas what this could be? It has recently been fully serviced including the correct NGK spark plugs (within the...

Evening, I had a Motorola TK30 installed in my car with the standard tuner list head unit on Friday. Whenever I use the kit, even press a button to select a contact to call, the speedo completely dies! All other gauges work fine. Any ideas of a quick fix? They guy who installed it said he...

Does anyone know how to programme the keycard of a mk4 Clio Dci? Or is this a Renault only job? The battery was replaced after it stopped working and it still doesn't work. Thanks for any replies.

Evening all, My 2004 172 is overdue a belt change. I'm planning on getting this done within the next couple of months along with the dephaser as it's just started making noise on tickover. My question is, are there any other parts that are normally replaced due to wear during the belt change...

Evening all, A friend of mine has an 03 Dynamique. He put the drivers window down the other day but the window wouldn't go back up. He took it to an auto electrician who said he could fix it for £120 but wouldn't tell him what the fault was. The same electrician charged him £30 to get the...

Will the above fit in to my 04 172? I'm just about to buy one on ebay and not sure the any of the connectors were changed. Thanks.

Evening all, This is my first post on here so apologies if I get it wrong! I picked up my 2004 172 today and it has an after market JVC headunit. My question is, how good or bad are the standard head units? I have had aftermarket headunits in previous cars and they have always attracted...
