Guys, Where the hell am i going to find the code for my Renault Stereo ?? I just put it back in as i;m selling the car in the next few weeks and I have no idea where the code will be. Thanks.

Errrrr. Am i right in thinking that a 172 will not go up on a set of halfords ramps frontways ???

Errr.... call me dumb but what will happen if i fit my KTR pads 2night without using copper grease. I cant really be arsed to go home via Halfords......!!!! Thanks.

Holding my De-Cat to my Manifold. I was about to remove my zorst but then realized that i have lost the Joiny bit (2stick the OEM systems back together) But basically on a 172 will the system fall off it the De-cat is only connected to the manifold with one (of the two) bolts ? P.s what size...

Hi is there a exact way to remove the CAT/DE-CAT ? ? (172 mk2) I need to take my Supersprint off and fit the OEM zorst back on but i took it to a garage today and they said that the couldnt get it off. Is there a way of doing it when the Manifold is hot or does it have to be cold???

Anyone got any ideas how I put my old 172 exhaust back on my car. It was cut of with a blow torch, where can i get the joiny bits from. Thanks.

Will this work on my car (03 172) or will it only work on the car it was removed from (imobillized thingy). This would make a fantastic base for a Piggy back ECU project...

Dont try and do it in the dark, Its comes out ok but getting it to sit back in the right place is a b**ch. Oh and you WILL need two people.

Just been told that my pads are shot after 17k Fronts and Backs. Renault have quoted me £300 for them which i think is steep so I wanna put new ones in myself. I assume its not that difficult. Would anyone recommend any particualar brake pads?? K-tec ones? Now my car has been in twice for a...

Is the 172 Brake Servo the same as the rest of the Clio range??? Renault have order one for me and quoted 7-10 WORKING days. That aint funny when your cars in the garage and you have 2 drive a corsa hire car!!!! Thanx Rob

Ok quick help need please...... My brakes failed on sunday, took it into Renault in Monday morning and was informed that the brake servo had failed. Was told that they did not have any cars to give me a such short notice so Renault UK was phoned and I was give a hire car for 3 days. Today I...

Ok. On the way home yesturday my brakes failed. The pedal went rock solid and now dont really do a lot. The Master Brake cylinder was replaced under warrenty about 2 months ago, so im guessing that some thing has broken again and there is a load of air in the system. Thing is I work in...

I think eveything that could have gone wrong today did. Took my car to Tonbrige and got it on the Rollers. Produced 118Bhp the wheels. (Si172, and jon_r both made 130 with only a sealed incduction) The RR operator told me that my car was running DANGEROUSLY lean )ie half the petrol to normal)...

Just taken out a Policy with Directline, for £1173 on a 03 172 with a "ahem" (like for like exhaust) 2 years NCB and im 21. Didnt think this was bad concidering that last year they wouldnt even give me a quote on a saxo VTR!!! Anyone had any experiance with their policy for driving other...

My 172 died on Friday, and i am now driving a lovly Yaris 1.0. I have noticed for a few months now loud clunking under acceleration. This has been getting progressivly worse, so i have visited renault on many occations to get it looked at. However lots of other things have been wrong with the...

At the moment im running a full supersprint De-Cat, if i fit a Pipercross open Induction kit do you think this will either..... 1. Give me more power 2. Lose Power 3. Make the engine run too lean. Im grateful of any advice.

Should I let my exhaust melt up into my bumper or should i change the mount to make it lower?? Already started to melt to im tempted to just let it do its thing. looks good though a single 70mm tailpipe

For the extra 50 quid itll cost is it worth getting 205 wide Rainsports rather than 195 wide??

What is the shortest 172 clutch life anyone has had?? Im on 11k now and my gear box and clutch feel like those of a 20 year volvo estate!! My clutch bites (sometimes) right at the top and basically feels like poo. It nearly always grinds/grate/crunches into 3rd and second is so notchy it...

Errr just drove to the shop for lunch..... and on the way back got a strong burning smell. Got back to work and opened the bonnet, there is a strong burning smell coming from the back of the engine bay. As well ive noticed the exhaust is a bit louder, ie when i lift of the throttle it...

Ive been noticing for a while but is the 172 clutch up to the job?? Thought it had been slipping a few times and then went out 2day after the rugger with 3 other mates in the car (fat b******s) and booted it off the line, going from 1st into 2nd there was NO bite at all, 6k in 1st into 2nd...

Ok Please dont dismiss this as a Dumb ass post..... I drive Loads of miles and ive gotta replace the Contis after only 9k miles, now ive been out and im not too pleased how much 4 decent tyres cost if im gunna be changing them 3 times per year!. If for examplei fitted some sh*te kumhos or...

oh yeah baby. On my 172 it is really quite loud and sounds the dogs. Somehow dont think itll sound 2 good on a 1.2 but u never know it might drown out the noise of the elastic bands going round!!!

Humm im gettin an idea. Im an electronic engineer, an if been reading bout car ECUs and emulator software. Does anyone know whatsort of chips is used in the ECU is it a Flash PIC or EPROM. Basically will i be able to run a new flash PIC or Software emmulation (laptop power). I know you can...

In one really simple step...... FIT AN INDUCTION KIT! I just fitted a Pipercross Induction kit and i swear every time i bury the loud pedal all the girls think its a TVR coming down the road :D Then they turn around see a clio. :oops: Still if it sounds good......
